----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Wed Oct 17, 2007 12:15 am Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- What's this? Why does this concept seem so strangely familiar? Perhaps because we're taking a good idea and making it even better! DPOC... more specifically, me, on behalf of DPOC, is organizing a fandom-wide holiday poster (and storybook, if we get enough written submissions!) project to send to Butch Hartman. The best part? It doesn't matter if you are or aren't a member of any of the involved forums or clubs. All you have to do is send in your submission, and it's in the poster! If you own a forum or club and want to be in on the project, send an email letting me know! Involved Clubs/sites/communities: Entry requirements: -Out of respect for the recipient's wishes, no slash submissions for the poster, please. -Since it's a winter holiday poster/book, please keep your entries to that theme- Thanksgiving, winter, Christmas, New Years, etc! -Minimum image size: 1000 x 1000. Remember, these are going to be printed, and the higher the image resolution, the better it'll look on paper! -Literary submissions need to be no more than 1 page long in 12pt Times New Roman font. (Note that if we get enough written submissions to make a separate holiday book, the limit will be raised to 5 pages.) -Don't forget to sign your work! -Accepted file formats: .gif, .jpg, .png, .psd, .bmp, .txt., .doc, .rtf -Email your submissions to poster@dannyphantomonline.com Submission deadline: December 5 (So that there's enough time to compile and print the poster and put together the book!) FAQ So what kind of submissions are you looking for? Artwork and short stories involving any of Butch Hartman's work. Obviously we're promoting the project primarily to Danny Phantom fans, but fans of Fairly Odd Parents are also welcome to submit work! How many times can we enter? For the sake of fairness, one entry per person. But you can collaborate with other artists and writers as well. And writers, if you want to get enough literature submissions to do the storybook as well as the poster, we recommend pairing up with fanartists to do an illustration to go with your story! What about my original work that's inspired by Butch's stuff? While it's cool that he's been an inspiration to you, this project is to celebrate his work, so let's keep it to DP and FOP characters, kay? ----------------------------------- Ducks_own Wed Oct 17, 2007 3:37 am ----------------------------------- Shoot, that's awesome. I'll have to get to a scanner and clean something up for this. P.S. Is a personal message to Butch possible with a submission? I'd like to, if that's possible. ----------------------------------- Asatira Thu Oct 18, 2007 11:02 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Cool idea. Definately interested. Should be able to come up with something in time. :P ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Fri Oct 19, 2007 1:42 am ----------------------------------- Shoot, that's awesome. I'll have to get to a scanner and clean something up for this. P.S. Is a personal message to Butch possible with a submission? I'd like to, if that's possible. You can definitely put a short message on your submission :) But remember that in theory there are going to be a LOT of entries on this poster, so it may be better to just aim for a visual impact rather than a wordy impact ;) ----------------------------------- slifertheskydragon Sat Nov 10, 2007 9:17 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- hey... um... why isn't the DPOF in this? ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Sat Nov 10, 2007 11:53 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Well, I've contacted Roadrunner over on DPOF about getting them in on it, but haven't heard a reply yet. She said she would try and help get the word out. I would contact Zcat directly, but... ah... She has some issues with me and the DPRF club. Because we allow slash fanworks. That and she never responded the last time I tried to contact her about a "Save Danny!" idea. ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Mon Nov 12, 2007 10:50 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Hey, since I'm the "Project Queen" at DPOF I'll be glad to help you guys out! Though I know if Zcat knew I was here she'd pop a blood vessle, oh tough cookies. I think it's time for this fan/anti-fan thing to be put aside and ALL fans group together to help save this show! As far as I'm concerned we all need to work together and I'm willing to help anyone who wants it! ----------------------------------- slifertheskydragon Mon Nov 12, 2007 11:30 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- yeah... it is a "holdiay" theme poster... uh what do they say... put aside all our differences and enjoy the holiday cheer or something to that effect. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Nov 13, 2007 1:23 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Hey, since I'm the "Project Queen" at DPOF I'll be glad to help you guys out! Though I know if Zcat knew I was here she'd pop a blood vessle, oh tough cookies. I think it's time for this fan/anti-fan thing to be put aside and ALL fans group together to help save this show! As far as I'm concerned we all need to work together and I'm willing to help anyone who wants it! Indeed, it's long past time for people to get over the true/anti stuff! :) Good to have you on board- I'm pretty sure I'll come running for advice if DPO and DPRF continue to try and run projects like this- mostly geared toward bringing fans together, but if sending an extra copy to the studio exec's is also an option... mwahahaha, let's do it! :D ----------------------------------- KnitChick Tue Nov 13, 2007 8:55 am ----------------------------------- Yeah we can take a cue from the ghosts and have a holiday truce ;) Glad to have ya on board GW! ----------------------------------- slifertheskydragon Sat Nov 17, 2007 6:39 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- The verdict is in: zcat is still unhappy with you guys and said no. >_>;; I think a problem was that someone jumped the shark and posted the project on the DPOF a little too hastily. ----------------------------------- Goku-san Sat Nov 17, 2007 7:35 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- The verdict is in: zcat is still unhappy with you guys and said no. >_>;; I think a problem was that someone jumped the shark and posted the project on the DPOF a little too hastily. anything involving the DPRF and DPOC is going to be frowned upon..remember? Both allow slash to be posted and that makes all of us sick people even though not all of us are into that. In fact, I'm pretty sure Fury herself doesn't support slash. She just wanted to make a community where everyone could feel welcome and not be afraid to post...:/ ----------------------------------- KnitChick Sat Nov 17, 2007 7:39 am ----------------------------------- Yeah. I mean, I am really not a fan of slash at all. I respect that some people like it, but just don't show it to me and I'll be a happy camper. (though the idea that people make slash pairings out of kid's cartoons boggles my mind) Personally I think Z's reaction was a lot nastier than it needed to be, and it really makes me *less* interested in hanging out on that forum. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Sat Nov 17, 2007 9:44 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Well, let's not derail the project thread too much discussing things we have no control over. If Zcat's unhappy, she's unhappy. She'll just have to cope, because whether she likes it or not, this project is going to happen. ----------------------------------- Asatira Sat Nov 17, 2007 10:26 pm ----------------------------------- I'm pretty casual in the fandom and don't know who this Zcat person is. So I don't care. I'm just concerned that the deadline is coming up and I haven't started yet. *needs to get the lead out and get started* ----------------------------------- Kismet Sun Nov 18, 2007 3:43 pm ----------------------------------- And I'm concerned that I haven't even voiced that I'm going to do something! o.o I'm thinking poem. Or mini-fic. But because of the limits and my long-windedness, I might just go with tiny comic. ----------------------------------- Asatira Sun Nov 18, 2007 8:40 pm ----------------------------------- I'm definitely doing some art. Something wintery. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Nov 20, 2007 9:24 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I'm going to do a poem about how I got hooked on the show XD It was Thanksgiving weekend, two-thousand-five Full up on turkey and unwilling to drive... ----------------------------------- katzklaw Fri Nov 30, 2007 3:20 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- so. where do we submit our masterpieces when we're done with them? (yeah, that means i actually did a Christmas-themed art! *gasp!*) :D ----------------------------------- Kismet Fri Nov 30, 2007 3:53 pm ----------------------------------- .... I got a perfect idea last night. It'd be better if I could draw it the way I saw it, but I'm not that good. Danny's ice powers put to good use ^_~ ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Fri Nov 30, 2007 6:52 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- so. where do we submit our masterpieces when we're done with them? (yeah, that means i actually did a Christmas-themed art! *gasp!*) :D Read the pooooost! *whines* When you're done, just email it to poster@dannyphantomonline.com :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Pendragon Tue Dec 04, 2007 8:48 pm ----------------------------------- Done and sent. Hope the whole thing gets there, it's pretty big. It's also posted on the DP-RealFans gallery and my DA page, if anyone's interested. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 04, 2007 9:16 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Man, I'm getting flooded with entries now that we're right on top of the deadline! :D ----------------------------------- Asatira Tue Dec 04, 2007 11:24 pm ----------------------------------- I look forward to seeing them. Unfortunately, life (aka school) got in the way this month and I put it off. ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Wed Dec 05, 2007 10:21 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I wish I had one to submit, but I don't have the time now! ----------------------------------- Kismet Wed Dec 05, 2007 3:35 pm ----------------------------------- I'm finishing my entry as we speak! Literary, just less than a page, and totally awesome. I won't be able to email it, though, Firefury, so it'll be in a PM to you. Sorry! No email from school computers. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Wed Dec 05, 2007 8:44 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Coolness, Kis :D And even though today's the deadline, late entries will still be accepted until I actually finish putting it together (Which is probably going to be next weekend x_x) ----------------------------------- KnitChick Wed Dec 05, 2007 10:52 pm ----------------------------------- I'm working on mine now! Now that I finally have the energy to sit up for more than five minutes at a time.... stupid flu knocked me out since Monday. But I got my line art drawn and now I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to color it in the compy ;) ----------------------------------- [YumeTakato] Thu Dec 06, 2007 4:04 am ----------------------------------- I've been semi-worrying about whether my entry was received and open-able. I sent it December 1st on my GotIYCM@aol.com e-mail... Argh. DX (subject had '...By TheSnowDrifter/MirandaMeyer' on it ----------------------------------- KnitChick Fri Dec 07, 2007 3:11 am ----------------------------------- Phew, mine is sent! Sorry for being a bit late, stupid flu. And after working on that....let me just bow down to those artists who are good at digital coloring. Goku-san, Feri-san, Kurachika, Cindre, TheSnowDrifter, any other talented artists I'm forgetting... I bow down to you!! *collapses* (oh yeah next time I decide to work on a 5000x5000 pixel file with a dozen layers...shoot me please!) ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Fri Dec 07, 2007 3:24 am ----------------------------------- @ Wed 05 Dec, 20:04"]I've been semi-worrying about whether my entry was received and open-able.

I did get your entry, and you should have an email confirming it now. :) ----------------------------------- [YumeTakato] Sun Dec 09, 2007 11:38 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I got it. Thanks! (uber delayed response) ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Mon Dec 10, 2007 10:22 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Are you going to put up the final poster so we can all see it? ----------------------------------- Roadrunner Mon Dec 10, 2007 4:01 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- *Pokes GW.* ;P Fury, what's the total so far with the extension? ----------------------------------- Kismet Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:10 am ----------------------------------- Meep! Judging from Feri-san's poll that I saw yesterday, there's about 30 more or less entries so far. That's going to be one LARGE poster! ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:29 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Let's see... in order: 1) Yes, there will be pics of the finished poster put up online. Both the clean image file, and at least one photograph of the actual poster. You folks put all the hard work into your entries, I would be ashamed of myself if I didn't post it for everybody to see! 2) I need to update the website count, but at the moment we're up to 43 entries, and I'm under the impression there's going to be a bunch more rolling in by the time the extension is up. So far I can confirm that we have entries from all over the US, as well as from south of the border (Um.. how many countries DOES the Latin Nick forum serve, anyway? Hafta ask Feri XD), a few from the UK, and one entry from an Australian fan. ----------------------------------- Ducks_own Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:37 am ----------------------------------- AND CANADA... Don't forget the Northern neighbours either. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 11, 2007 1:40 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Oh, cool! Didn't realize we had any Canadians on board! Hrm... we need one of those guestbook map thingies or something XD; ----------------------------------- Kali Phantom Tue Dec 11, 2007 2:20 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- We do need a guestbook map thingy. And for the record, even though I'm not participating in the poster directly, I'm Canadian too. ----------------------------------- Beastbabe Tue Dec 11, 2007 5:50 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- This forum always comes up with great ideas! Like the Secret Phan for Phan Week ^^ I can't wait to see the finished piece :D ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Tue Dec 11, 2007 9:40 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Boy, that's more entries than I had for the Halloween project at the DOPF! Looking forward to seeing it! ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 11, 2007 11:26 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Wow, really? :shock: Wow, I would have thought we'd pull in less, what with this being my first time running something like this and.... ah... certain people apparently not liking the idea. ----------------------------------- Kismet Wed Dec 12, 2007 12:50 am ----------------------------------- Well, since it was open to the general public rather than just DPOC, that's actually not a surprise. I'm sure we got several submissions from non-members, right? ----------------------------------- Roadrunner Wed Dec 12, 2007 2:53 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I agree with GW. This is a terrific turnout, especially since this time of year is extremely busy for many. You guys did a terrific job organizing this and getting the word out...Kudos!! ^__^ Plus, I'm sure there are many where this is the first time participating in a project like this. ;o) ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Thu Dec 13, 2007 8:58 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Man, I owe it to you folks for spreading the word- Feri especially. At least 1/4 of the total entries so far have come from members of the Latin Nick boards! And right now we're juuuuust shy of 50 entries :D ----------------------------------- bluename Sat Dec 15, 2007 4:36 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Man, I owe it to you folks for spreading the word- Feri especially. At least 1/4 of the total entries so far have come from members of the Latin Nick boards! And right now we're juuuuust shy of 50 entries :D really? :D OMG there are more latin fans online? I only know feri and fanfi XD go us! YAY the project is going to be soooo BIGGGG, I can't wait to see it :D ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Sun Dec 16, 2007 11:43 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Well, I start putting the poster together tomorrow. (Okay, technically later today, but...) At the moment the total is 54 entries. Late entries will be accepted while I'm still working on the poster, but ideally I will be sending it to the printer no later than the 19th, so I should be done putting it all together no later than the 18th, and possibly sooner than that. 54 entries, representing the United States, Canada, Mexico, Chile, Puerto Rico, Australia, I think the United Kingdom, and various other South American countries who's names currently escape me. ^^; Awesome work guys! ----------------------------------- katzklaw Sun Dec 16, 2007 11:45 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- can't wait to see the finished product! sounds AWESOME! :shock: :mrgreen: ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Mon Dec 17, 2007 3:59 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Well, I've started to assemble the poster :D Right now I've got 9 out of 54 entries in place. So I figure I'd take a quick progress screenie to share with folks: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/claw-kun/Poster-In-Progress.jpg ----------------------------------- Roadrunner Tue Dec 18, 2007 3:13 am ----------------------------------- This is so going to kick ass once it's all done. =D ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 18, 2007 5:22 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- It's certainly kicking my poor computer's ass! The file size with all 54 entries arranged is 123 MB, and has a print size of 28x19 inches. And that's not counting the border that I still need to put on it! I had to play some creative computer memory management just to SAVE the file toward the end! Now that the entries are all arranged (Tetris game from HELL, I swear!), tomorrow I'm going to head down to the frame place and figure out what standard frame size is closest to the current size. The border will then pad the poster size to fit said standard size, because I reaaally don't want to have to pay for a custom frame, too! Plus the border can be used to list all the communities that participated and stuff :) And here's a screenshot of the completed arrangement: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/claw-kun/Poster-In-Progress2.jpg ----------------------------------- Kismet Tue Dec 18, 2007 1:44 pm ----------------------------------- Ohman it is SO T3H GORGEOUS! Thanks for all the hard work, fury. I'm proud that we all got to participate in such a kick-ass present! ^__^ Man he's gonna enjoy it. (I wonder if he has a wal dedicated to all the posters that the fandom keeps insisting on giving him... xD) ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Tue Dec 18, 2007 11:57 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- IT IS DONE! My poor abused computer barely managed it, but the poster design is finalized, and I already purchased the frame for it (luck was with me, frames were on sale when I was looking! :D) The print size will be 28 x 22 inches (8400 x 6600 pixels). The file size of the finalized poster is a much more manageable 35.5 MB (the file with the entries all split onto separate layers was like, 150-someodd MB :D ) It goes to the printer tomorrow, and hopefully it shouldn't take more than a few days to get it back and put into the frame. Looks like Butch will probably be receiving it a little tiny bit after the holidays, but I'm told he might not even be in town this week, sooo... it all works out in the end :) It's been an experience and quite an honor to work with fans from all over the world, and to put everyone's efforts into something tangible like this. You guys prove that despite what some people may say about our fandom, that we can still work together to do something positive- and have fun doing it! This really is the spirit of the season, people from all walks of life coming together to share in a common goal. Hopefully I'm not just being a sentimental fruit loop here, and that everyone who's helped shares that feeling, too. :) I owe many thanks to Feri, Roadrunner, and Ghostwriter56- the first for essentially being the project liason to the Latin board, and helping fans get across the language barrier to participate; the second for helping promote the project to fans that otherwise might not have heard about the project and for her welcome and much-needeed support; and the third for sharing a wealth of advice and suggestions earlier this year when the poster was still just a glimmer of an idea. You guys rock and this poster would not be possible without the support of such wonderful people. And of course, I also owe thanks to every single person who submitted an entry, helped spread the word, and otherwise make this truly a fandom-wide collaboration. I look forward to working with everyone again on future projects. ;) I'll be posting a slightly better copy of the poster image file online later this week, as well as photos of the actual poster. In the meantime, here's what it looks like now: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v515/claw-kun/PosterFinal.jpg ----------------------------------- Asatira Wed Dec 19, 2007 12:04 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- :shock: Wow! ----------------------------------- KnitChick Wed Dec 19, 2007 6:00 am ----------------------------------- *gives Firefury a well-deserved pat on the back* Looks amazing!

WOW!! ----------------------------------- Mabaroshiwoou Wed Dec 19, 2007 9:08 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Knit-san: so we hope, heh.

I can't believe it! I knew since the very first moment that my entry was never recieved because I never got a message back nor anyting like that, I feel so bad!! I thought that maybe I was going to recieve the meend but ssage at the my entry is just not there!! I asked in DeviantArt (I'm bluename there too) if we were going to receive a message confirming that the entry was recieved, and I don't know why I forgot that I never got one back!! Aghhh!!! I know it's my fault because I didn't say anything, ut my head was in another place because I send the entry like Dec 3, and I have been since then in Semester Finals, and I completly forgot!! All the work for nothing ¬¬ UUGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! *runs away* :( if anyone is curious, this was my entry: http://bluename.deviantart.com/art/Christmas-poster-entry-71142832 off course DA resized it becuase it was too big. :( ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Thu Dec 20, 2007 8:16 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Tell you what- I have to print the story submissions separately anyway (They ARE readable on the poster itself, but you've got to get right up to it, so I'm including the stories in an envelope on the back of the frame.) There's also another art entry that I was supposed to have gotten but for some reason didn't, so I'll print yours and that one to include so that Butch gets them, even though they aren't in the poster itself. How's that sound? ----------------------------------- bluename Thu Dec 20, 2007 4:34 pm ----------------------------------- AWSOME THANKSSSS SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *glomps you* do I have to send it to you again, or do you want me to attach a link in another post of the entry in it's original size? *hugs you a loottt* ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Thu Dec 20, 2007 9:53 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- The Download thingie on DeviantArt enabled me to download the full size image from the link you gave, so I definitely have it now! :) ----------------------------------- bluename Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:47 am ----------------------------------- :O I didn't know that......AWSOME, THANKS AGAIN *hugs you a million times* :D :D you ROCK OUT LOUD ----------------------------------- katzklaw Fri Dec 21, 2007 4:51 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- gah. my submission isn't in there either! i swear i did send it to the address! :shock: i been having trouble with my connection lately, i guess maybe the e-mail sent, and the attachment didn't. *sigh* here: http://katzklaw.deviantart.com/art/DP-holiday-poster-submission-71066958 if you can still do something with it, cool. if not. oh well, crap. *sigh* :cry: ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Fri Dec 21, 2007 8:16 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- This is why I sent out emails to confirm that I received entries x_x Like with the other two that somehow didn't get to me but should have, I'll print it so that Butch will still get it, even if it's not in the actual poster. ----------------------------------- Bluemoonalto Fri Dec 21, 2007 8:29 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Keep this up, Fury, and you'll have enough leftovers for a whole 'nother poster! :wink: ----------------------------------- Kismet Fri Dec 21, 2007 8:35 pm ----------------------------------- Stockpiling for Holiday Poster 2008? xD ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:07 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I think I'm going to brainstorm ideas with everybody for another group project like this XD;; Maybe something a little easier to assemble than a giant computer-crashing poster! ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:48 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Well, there's always a Valentine Project! Last year I did a "Chain of Love For Danny Phantom" to send to Nick. What everyone did was do a valentine centered around Danny..not OC's or other characters....just Danny Fenton or Phantom and I tied them to a nice length of white chain and sent it to Nick. Maybe you can do something like that for Butch? ----------------------------------- bluename Fri Dec 21, 2007 9:51 pm ----------------------------------- Lesson of the story: Don't trust e-mails XD and I like the idea of GhostWriter, n_n it would be a poster full of love :P ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Mon Dec 24, 2007 6:52 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- http://dp-realfans.deviantart.com/art/Holiday-Poster-2008-72846391 Image load warning guys: Even shrunk to about 1/4 of the print file's size, that's still a 6 MB image! ----------------------------------- Asatira Mon Dec 24, 2007 3:35 pm ----------------------------------- Wow, Firefury. That's a lot. Great work, and great work everybody who contributed. Thanks alot!. Merry Christmas, guys! ----------------------------------- slifertheskydragon Wed Dec 26, 2007 3:06 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- lol i offer my computer for you to crash firefury... lol maybe ask that dp chain link thing if we could send it in... ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Thu Dec 27, 2007 10:24 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- So when is this poster being shipped to Butch? ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Thu Dec 27, 2007 3:57 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- Actually, for various reasons I don't trust it to get to him if mailed- I'm making arrangements to have it delivered directly to Butch. Hopefully I'll have a delivery date for everyone within a week (and whether or not I'll be going along for the delivery.) Apparently the guy's been insanely busy trying to get a new show sold, so it's proving a bit tedious to get a time ^^; ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Thu Dec 27, 2007 9:48 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- oh that's super! I hope you can get to see him, he is real nutty busy! I was thrilled to get a letter from him for the scrapbook of the NYC Rally! After standing in the rain for 8 hours its the least he could do, and did!!!! I'm sure he'll love it! ----------------------------------- Goku-san Thu Dec 27, 2007 10:48 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I think I'm going to brainstorm ideas with everybody for another group project like this XD;; Maybe something a little easier to assemble than a giant computer-crashing poster! Like I said on AIM, I could do the assembling of stuff on my comp and just send you the finished file. I have a faster internet connection (downloading wouldn't take as long) and plenty of freetime.. :P ----------------------------------- Kismet Thu Dec 27, 2007 11:20 pm ----------------------------------- Another project for Butch would be great. As for when, well, DPOF always has the anniversary of DP taken care of so let's not infringe on that... but what abaout his birthday? Or something along the lines of that. As for what to do... I think we could make a slideshow or something like that, you know? I had my idea a few months ago for people to take pictures and we spell out D-A-N-N-Y P-H-A-N-T-O-M and assemble it in one collage, but no one ever actually took the pictures. [/ideas] & I'm going to move this to just a normal announcement now that it's complete. ----------------------------------- Firefury Amahira Thu Dec 27, 2007 11:40 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I was thinking a summer themed thing (so as not to overlap DPOF's anniversary project), and maybe something to give to Steve Marmel. Actually, if Goku-san can keep us informed as to how well the Packers are doing this year, maybe something Vlad and Packers themed to give him, since he's the cheesehead behind Vlad being a cheesehead XD ----------------------------------- Kismet Thu Dec 27, 2007 11:51 pm ----------------------------------- .... so, like, would it be considered bribe if we refuse to give Marmel a poster if he doesn't give us our DP3 material? I kid, I kid. ......... I did not just think about giving the Packers a Vlad-themed poster. DID NOT! ----------------------------------- Goku-san Thu Dec 27, 2007 11:55 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- I was thinking a summer themed thing (so as not to overlap DPOF's anniversary project), and maybe something to give to Steve Marmel.

They're 12-3. They're still in the play-offs though. But they'll have to go to Dallas during the play-offs and Brett for some reason freaks out when he plays down there. So yeah, the Packers have a 0-9 record down there (hopefully he'll get over that). They have a bye-week in the play-offs. They'll be playing either Jan. 12 or 13 for the first play-off game. We'll see how that goes. ----------------------------------- Feri-san Fri Dec 28, 2007 3:09 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- The birthday idea sounds incredible for me, Kismet! I was planning on sending him a fangir- I MEAN, fan package full of stuffers I'd give him, but for now that cannot happen (unless i get a car and rmiacoulously learn to drive this instant) but i approve of the birthday idea 8D *w* and the slideshow, and giving Steve something 8D (i drew him a yin and yang dresse din Packer clothes in the gRafitti thing in Facebook but i dont think he saw it.. is aved the pic though xD) AGH SO MANY AWESOME ideas *implode* Hey hey hey, and if we DO a birthday thing LATER on, maybe.. ONLY MAYBE, we can get familair people to leave a emssage? Like dAvid Kaufman? hE's real nice and he always tries to reply to fan mail! maybe he can do that little something for us, and we could try with Grey Delisle.. i don't know, just brainstorming... Anything you guys plan to give these awesome people, count ME IN! ----------------------------------- Kismet Fri Dec 28, 2007 3:17 am ----------------------------------- I know David responded to PandaJenn recently, so we could try that. And we have Marmel's contact info on hand, and with the help of a bunch of the VA's websites we could reach them, too. o.o So, uh, when IS his birthday? ----------------------------------- Feri-san Fri Dec 28, 2007 3:23 am ----------------------------------- I know David responded to PandaJenn recently, so we could try that.

Heh, well, it's awfully close to the Holiday one... so I think we may just have to go with something else if the Holiday project becomes traditional ^_^;; ----------------------------------- Feri-san Fri Dec 28, 2007 3:46 am ----------------------------------- Wow. Heh, well, it's awfully close to the Holiday one... so I think we may just have to go with something else if the Holiday project becomes traditional ^_^;; Or maybe we can do a one year holiday, next year birthday, next year holiday, next year birthd- I DONT KNWO you guys ar ethe ones organizing it, im jsut being fangirly peppy. ----------------------------------- KnitChick Fri Dec 28, 2007 6:19 am ----------------------------------- *giggle* Feri, you crack me up girl! :) I like the idea of something Packers-themed for Steve. I drew a pretty decent Cheesehead on Vladdie... :D I like the spelling out idea, Kis, that sounds really cool! Can I claim D though? Cuz I would love to do my pic in cosplay and since there's a D on the costume.... :D It would be great to do something for the VAs, David gets a lot of attention, but maybe a slightly smaller thing for each of the main VAs, Grey and Ricky and Rob and Kath and maybe Martin too? ----------------------------------- Kismet Fri Dec 28, 2007 4:06 pm ----------------------------------- Well, if I'm right, the thread for that photo project is still somewhere in FanArt... anyone want to unbury it? And for the VAs, we could make character-themed posters. Tons of Vlad images for Martin, Sam for Grey, etc.... Oh, man, I can think of so many things this quickly, but organizing it is a whole different story. Which ones do we want to do -- one or all? ----------------------------------- Goku-san Fri Dec 28, 2007 9:02 pm ----------------------------------- Depending how far the Packers go, it could be Super Bowl themed for the Cheesehead Vlad thing for Steve. The Super Bowl is on Feb.4. Even if they don't make it it would still be a fun theme..XD..Perhaps the project could be a picture mozic where the images are arrange to form the Packers' embelm. http://www1.whdh.com/images/news_articles/389x205/061029_Green_Bay_Packers_logo.jpg I'll stop blathering now. ----------------------------------- ghostwriter56 Sat Dec 29, 2007 1:48 pm Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- GO PATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: Hey if the Packers play the Pats in the Super Bowl again....we can have a party...how about the Vlad Masters Invitational Cheese Tasting Festival!!!!!!!!!!!! ----------------------------------- Pendragon Sun Dec 30, 2007 9:33 pm ----------------------------------- I'm all for doing something for Steve. Everyone give Butch all the attention and from what I've heard Steve really liked working on the show too. I'm sure he don't get alot of gifts form fans. Besides, he might cough up that season three notes for us if we do something nice for him. ----------------------------------- Kismet Sun Dec 30, 2007 9:46 pm ----------------------------------- So the bribery is still an option? =D I want to get started on those. We haven't really touched Origins in several days... ----------------------------------- Pendragon Sun Dec 30, 2007 10:05 pm ----------------------------------- One can hope. Does Steve even have season three notes? Because I'd hate to have seen all this work go too waste. ----------------------------------- Goku-san Mon Dec 31, 2007 4:15 am Re: Fandom-Wide Holiday Poster Project! ----------------------------------- GO PATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: Hey if the Packers play the Pats in the Super Bowl again....we can have a party...how about the Vlad Masters Invitational Cheese Tasting Festival!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL..that would be fun. We shall see how it falls into place. But if it is a Pats vs. Pack Super Bowl, it's going to be one exciting game that's for sure.
