I have to create a series of small graphics for the delivery options when ordering our floor plan catalog. I'm not looking for someone to make the graphics for me!
You know the concept of how someone says "tree" and in your brain you don't see the letters but rather you get a mental image of a tree? I'm just trying to learn what people picture in their own minds when they think of some terms.
The delivery options are:
- Normal delivery
- Expedited delivery
- In person delivery
- Download-able delivery
The download and in-person options are pretty easy for me to conceptualize as a graphic. The other two are a bit fuzzier for me to visualize distinctly without being corny. I have some ideas but I was hoping to learn what other people think of to see if my design ideas are on, or off, target.

Normal delivery - An envelope.
Expedited delivery - An envelope with a woosh kinda thing indicating motion.
In person delivery - A Person With a Package in their hand.
Download-able delivery - A Hard drive, with a downward pointing arrow.
Just some really crappy eamples to give you an idea of what I mean. (In order.)

I don't quite understand, how are the other parcels delivered, by a robot, by a monkey?

Good question Michel. Sorry I wasn't clear on that point.
- Normal delivery = normal postal delivery times
- Expedited delivery = express postal delivery (or FedEx, UPS, etc. whatever we decide to use)
- In person delivery - visit either us or a dealer and we'll hand you a plan book
- Downloadable - PDF download from our website.

- Expedited delivery --- a package
- In person delivery ---- a person handing the envelope
- Download-able delivery ------ a "@ . com" sign

Then I would call "in person delivery" an "in store pickup". Maybe it's a language thing.

Keeping with the theme is that mail or male you want delivered?
Really keeping the theme never use a snail in your icons. The idea you want to comvey is service so no negatives. Basically fast, faster, fastest as options. The own pickup is the personal delivery, but in fact it's a face to face meetimg so a salesperson speaking to a couple so there is no gender preference with some sort of a showroom background.
