Where to go for custom decals?

I'm looking into getting custom decals made for the Record Ace but don't know where to go.

I'd want my avatar (I think only yellow and green would be necessary as the frame will be black)
JamaicanJack.jpg
my monogram (I've been using it on stuff for over 20 years)

the make and model of the bike and the Heron logo made up as decals.

ITB's recommendation of Armourtex seems to be a winner, does the hive mind have any recommendations for decals?
FCN 3: Raleigh Record Ace fixie-to be resurrected sometime in the future
FCN 4: Planet X Schmaffenschmack 2- workhorse
FCN 9: B Twin Vitamin - winter commuter/loan bike for trainees

I'm hungry. I'm always hungry!

    Can't help with the decals (although you might try the Retrobike site), but that monogram reminds me a lot of Chinese seal script - the stylised characters you get on Chinese seals.

    A mate had a complete set of graphics made for his fireblade before he restored it, photographed old ones and got a local vinyl signmaker to make them up, worked just fine.
