[ ~ ~ ROBOT ~ ~ ]

Or vertical signs?

|3|
|8|
|0|
|7|

Or signs with two of the numbers on top and two on bottom?


|38|
|07|

How about angled signs?

\3\
.\8\
..\0\
...\7\

Can the numbers be different sizes?

|3807|

If any one of these options are legal (as long as the font is legible, it's black on a white background, etc). then I'll be happy.

I do think that there is a certain amount of originality that can be preserved with robot numbering... though I would hate to see us have any problems with the judges over something that's pretty trivial.
I actually think you can have your number vertically, as long as it is on all four sides.
