I've had luck (albeit not exceptionally weather-tested luck, haven't really made many) with stickerpaper ($20/50sheets or so) and a photocopier: scout out the shop with the best copiers, because some do really horrible blacks and others are essentially solid. I've had more weatherproof luck with regular paper, regular photocopier, and spray adhesive. They peeled some in the Eugene summer (highs in the 90s), so Florida is probably going to be dramatically different. My most weatherproofed experience was watered down elmers glue in a spraybottle as both a base coat & a top coat.

I've never experienced homeade window cling stickers, but (I don't, thinking now, know how he attached it) heard once of a friend's logo sticker printed silver on clear, then affixed next to the Visa, Mastercard, etc stickers in a shop window -- apparently it stayed for a long time.
