One of the easiest ways to make "poor man's" signage that has been somewhat brought out on this forum is to print them yourself.

Here are several ideas:

1) Whatever paper you print the labels/stickers on, you can simply get clear "contact paper" and cut it one inch oversize. Just take the contact paper, lay it upside down on a smooth table and then take your "sticker/label" and lay it face-down on the sticky contact paper. Use a spoon to smooth all the bubbles etc from the middle. Then apply the whole thing to your robot and trim 1" of margin with a knife.

2) Now, at home you can print up to 8.5"x11" sheets in your inkjet printer. You could design a logo to span over two pages (use Powerpoint for easy designs). Or, you can buy "banner or panoramic photo paper" for most inkjet printers from an office supply store.

3) Or, you can take your design file to Kinko's and they can print it on glossy vinyl in larger formats.

I agree that companies such as FastSigns are nice, but there are other cheaper methods that produce great results too.
