WAY OT: Why Sydney, and not LA?

Thats awesome Joe. Could we fit the lafcpug logo there rather than the red and white lafcpug sign or am I mucking with your creativity? Hmmmm....might look like a logo though and not a billboard. Never mind.

:-)

Dont ask me about the Global Icon thing Corbett. Makes zero sense to me.

"wait why is it illegal to take a picture of a hill and then do the lafcpug like the hollywood sign?"
because lawyers with money behind them say so.

there's a story i read about a guy called Rohan Rohur i think.
in the '60s he had a bunch of prints of old silent movies.
they were probably public domain, but because he showed his a lot he started acting like he owned them.
he actualy started suing other people who also had copies and showed them.
i think he may have won a case in some teritory, and that sort of created some precedent.
so in the end he kind of did own them, although he never really did.

in a way he was a creeep and a bully,
but he was also partly responsible for re-introducing Buster Keaton to the public,
which helped Keaton (who was starving in obscurity) no end.


great work, Joey.
i thought i was looking at the original pic Mike posted for a while.

and i must say whoever did the original hill design did an excellent job.

So now we can be sued for things that remind lawyers of things they represent.

anywho, i think that joe has the ticket on this design.

Yeah, this is no contest. I'd use it even if there were. Joey, can you send me this at a size that will fit in the slide show?

I'll put it up this week.

Thanks for doing it.

Mike,

Absolutely. What is the pixel size / kb you need from me?

BTW...I did the layout you see because I was motivated by the retro feel of that billboard. The LAFCPUG logo just wouldn't look right there to me.

You are a truly gifted artist

No more than 30W and keep files size as small as you can. 30-40K if possible

Michael Horton
-------------------

30W? ...don't understand what that means Mike. I need a Pixel Aspect Ratio to compress to (400x300, etc)

300 w. oops We need to scale height so whatever it comes out too. but current picts up there are about 290x 210

Here ya go, Mike:

Nice joe.

nice job! Haha! 30W sounds like a light bulb.

The few things I remember from LA - a very dark comedy club, a weird hotdog shop that was an actual big hot dog that you sat inside, the boulevarde, the bowl, the walk of fame, the chinese restaurant, a very large house in bright pink, a very nice kingsize bed and VHS right to your room!

Don't forget the lawyers.....though its funny, 6 of the 9 things on your list are on mine. No pink house, kingside bed or VHS (what decade did you go to LA????)

I think it was 1990. A lot of cars seems to have wood on them, too. Or possibly that was San Diego. It's all a bit of a blur now.
