http://rlv.zcache.com/blue_swirl_lollipop_magnet-p147494253376466219qjy4_400.jpg - more blue :)

Not sure whether that would a) be almost impossible to do on the helmet b) look ridiculous c) cause me no amount of grief from the fielders :D

Taking inspiration from New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo, Flight of the Concordes, I think you should look at Brett's bike helmet design and adapt it for cricket. i.e. make a design that makes it look lik you're not even wearing a helmet, with hair and ears etc...

Johnny - perhaps a design which may prove popular amongst the more folically challenged cricketers.......perhaps you could buy a wig and stick it to an old helmet and see what it looks like before anyone takes the plunge and gets one made up.......last thing anyone would want is to look silly :)

Dom....are you attempting to hypnotise the fielders by going out and spinning a few times on your heels whilst they stare intothe centre of your lollipop?

Very new age spoon bending theory of you ;) will soon have the sports psychologists on board i bet!

Johnny....Afrotek a slight twist on the above! wasnt there an advert with Afro-in-a-can? that would go straight onto the shells easy!!!

ever since I got my helmet theres one design I have always wanted to see on these helmet: a camoflague effect, with the right shade of colours, a forest camo, or a desert camo, or a urban camo I think could look very catching on the helmet and I recon it would look great

I think a duck design, like a Mallard's head, with a yellow peak as the bill and green body. Almost cricket apt as well, especially for a tail ender - one for Chris Martin maybe?
