That looks Great ! ! Fantastic work.👍
@Erika Very nice. One thing I was thinking is that if you capture some of your work on camera, we can use it to make propaganda videos for youtube. Just something that came to mind.
Fantastic!
Good idea @David Darnell - MT.
@steph - TX thanks, girl!
Gotta support my fellow I E ladies. Love the banner
@steph - TX Texas isn't losing anything. Not if we have any say in it
Quin - TX Thank You, and your right! I'm just bitter over the Lee statue being removed, and the Dallas school names being changed 😥
@Erika Can you and your team write a guide on creating such a beautiful banner? Materials, size, paint, stenciling, etc.
@Argument of Perigee that’s a great request. I’ve been in touch with our new activism coordinator, @wayne peek, and having a written standardized manual, as well as accompanying videos, to show what materials to buy and the process of how to make a large scale professional looking banner is something we both want to create and release by the end of 2017.
Yes. We are about to be releasing all of these things. Stay tuned. By the end of the week all of these questions will have answers and directions.
@Erika we should share .xcf files so first timers don't have to learn GIMP from scratch. That set me back a while.
Wow,absolutely wonderful Banner,Very Professional Banner! My dad used to do professional hand painted signs,helped once-even he would be quite impressed! ;)
@Logan it would probably be a good idea to have an .xcf file dump, but I do think it’s a good idea that everyone still learn how to use the software to make their own custom banner graphics. GIMP is a pain in the ass to learn, but it’s a necessity.
@celticflame thanks!
@wayne peek Needs to includes what to look for when selecting a target overpass, how to use grommets, weighing the bottom of the banner to prevent flapping, and deployment tactics.
Absolutely!
We will have a voice call soon. I want to chat will all the coordinators and get everyone on the same page. I was thinking when we have our next meeting we could catch everyone up at once.
Early morning fun
Someone called the cops. Maximum rustling
thought crime
It was up for a few hours though
No padlocks on it?
Cops will just cut them with bolt cutters they normally have them in the back of their car
Our group leaves small attack dogs nearby to dissuade anyone who'd take it down. Our banners can stay up for weeks, with enough dog food.
@Sam Southern - TN we put 10 grommets on it and zip tied each one. Took him a while to figure out how to get on the other side of the fence to take it down.
Little brain Orlando police can't operate a fence
@Mark Vandal so great
@Erika it's not the same come back!
@Mark Vandal I’ll let you know next time I come visit Florida so we can do another drop.
Banner drop done this morning on Rt. 9 in Marlboro, NJ. Thanks to @Steve - NJ @Thomas West (Hapa Spy) @Algrin "Bailey" Bagley - PA and @GDoctor for coming out and making it happen!
@Evan - NJ Nice job all! How long did it stay up?
Still there as far as I know
@Evan - NJ Nice!!
Orlando likes to SHUT IT DOWN oy vey.
@Evan - NJ I like the flag, nice touch
American nationalism baby!
