[2009-03-28] USA fan banner for Paris!
 

Hey all.

As you probably know, Alizée isn't getting the attention she deserves in France. We'd like to do something at the Grand Rex to help change that. The idea is to display a massive vinyl banner while waiting outside the concert, either 4x12 or 5x15 feet, representing her American fans. Hopefully this will gain some media attention!

Of course printing something that large and shipping it to France isn't cheap, so we're asking for donations. Let us know if you'd like to contribute, and how much. Once we see how many responses we get, and know the exact cost of everything, we'll let each of you know how much to send. It won't be more than your maximum amount, but it may be less!

If you want an idea what you're chipping into, here's a work in progress. The logo's a placeholder, and we still need some text in addition to the website urls ("alizeeamerica.com" and "lillytownusa.com"). A cheesy pun related to flying to go along with the image would probably be best. Something like "we've just flown in from America, and boy are our arms tired" (:p), but that doesn't translate well into French. Any of the experts here have suggestions?

Thanks! And see many of you at the concert! :)

I like it, in fact I love it, I haven't seen a photoshop that has caught my attention that gracefully as this one.

But I don't get why we'd put "Text Goes Here" on our text, seems odd. :p:p:p

That is an awesome design :wub:

Great design but the American flag should be a little more defined.

its kinda a pattern on where to put the "Original text" and as what said earlier on the LTUSA

awesome design :)

he's right :p

Hmm, nice. Too bad I'm Canadian...

...oh, all right...I guess I could chip in...so long as you don't mind taking our froot loop-coloured money with ducks on it...

Seriously, though...would a single, solitary maple leaf have been too much to ask...? :p

I was thinking of you and a few other Canadians while making this, Ruroshen, but couldn't figure out an easy or elegant way to include you. One idea was to list everyone's location along the bottom as text. Like, "New York, LA, San Fransisco, etc.", and include places like Toronto there. But I don't think we'll have time to organize that.

Heh, I'm just being a smartass sir, but thanks for the thought. I'd be happy to contribute to the cause, of course. :D
