I thought that was pretty much established by now.

Since my email address is attached to the O&A party page, many people are contacting me for promotional permissions. I usually tell them to contact Donovan's Reef for permission to pass out flyers or things like that. The latest email I received was from a fan with a great idea and the ability to produce bumper stickers. He wrote to me:

My name is Chris B***** and I to am a follower of O&A. I have access to and use a vinyl sticker machine that is capable of printing crap loads of wonderful stickers. I didn't want to post it on the guestbook in case something terrible happens to our sticker machine between now and the party, but I would like to plan on showing up with several hundred new stickers.

I have designs for a new WOW sticker, a NORTON STINKS sticker, and a DON AND MIKE STILL SUCK sticker. If you would like to take a look at the designs and let me know what you think, I'd appreciate it.

I'm not going to try and make a profit off of them, but would you have anything against me selling them for one dollar a piece just to offset the cost of the materials I \"borrow\" from the shop? If it would be too much hassle, don't worry about it, I'll give them away. Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Chris

I wrote him back this message...

Chris,

Do you have an image (jpg) file of what these stickers look like? Email me those images if you have them, so I can place them on the O&A party page and let people know to keep an eye open for you. I have no control over who sells what at the party, and you may want to check with the manager of Donovan's Reef to see if you can sell them inside his place. It's up to you, I think you could probably just sell for a buck and no one would really care. A buck is nothing, and they would appreciate your efforts. I don't know if you coulc make a special \"I survived the Donovan's Reef O&A Party 2003 Party... WOW!\" sticker. Then I am sure the owner would not mind them being sold within his esablishment... hell he may even buy a ton of them himself for future customers to buy after they actual crawl back the next day after actually surviving it!

You can really make this sticker thing work, and if we get the word out before the party, you can gauge the amount you should actually print up. I am going to place your idea on a couple of message boards and see what people think about the idea.

Let me know what you guys think of this idea and if you have any other ideas about it.

[Toronto Hottie]

That's a great idea.

I myself have no problem paying a dollar a sticker to offset his costs.


Thank you Chris, and thanks for sharing Paul.

Hottie,

I might as well post the bumper sticker images he sent me here so everyone can take a look at them and give some feed back. I, also, applaud this guy's efforts... and he even made up that new "I Survived..." one I suggested in a very short time.

This guy is motivated and will make quick changes where needed and reply within the sameday. I think his bumper stickers are simple and clean in design and are very much worth a buck for his materials.

Here is his reply he sent within hours after I sent my reply to his original message...

Paul,

I have the files attached. I also made the additional WOW sticker with the Donovan's Reef Reference. If they meet your approval since you are the spearhead of this party I'll go ahead and start making them. The images are in bmp format, I couldn't make jpegs from the program I run here in the shop without screwing up the things. Hopefully you can use them for the website. Let me know if you do, that'd be cool. Again, let me know what you think or if there are any other stickers I should put together. Thanks.

Chris

I took his (bmp) files and converted them to (jpg) for easy viewing on the web. I also made smaller image files so I can place all the bumper stickers in this thread and all you will have to do is click on each image to view the detailed bumper sticker of each file.

So, here they are, just click on each image to view it in more detail...











O.K... let's hear some feadback on this, and please be constructive and not destructive in your comments. Thanks!

AWESOME!

Chris did a great job! Put me down for 20!

If I can scrape up enough USD I'll take even more and litter anonymous vehicles throughout Toronto with the plague!

Truly, thanks guys.

I'm sure you could count on most if not everyone grabbing at least one of each
