Post Ways to spread the word on the march

Any suggestions? I am trying to make a few things like bumper stickers, t-shirts, posters, whatever availiable.

Here is a preliminary design for a T-shirt.

I think I'll add the godless americans web address to it. Other suggestions?

Umm...I don't really have a suggestion, but I do have some feedback.

The religious mousepad on that webpage is priced at $199.99. Please tell me that's a typo.....?

Also, the picture and wording on the mousepad is all but unviewable due to it's small size.

Put up an ad in your local supermarket(s) bulliten boards. I don't know of too many people who don't buy food.

I've been waiting to here from the Godless A. March coodinators on some flyers and resources they will have us distribute but so far have heard nothing.

Do you think we need permission first before putting up flyers that have the Godless Americans March or website advertised on them?

I have been spreading the word around the web and I did see the link to the Weekly Standard News article about the march.

See article:
<a href="http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/001/517wiclv.asp" target="_blank">http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/001/517wiclv.asp</a>


In fact, they put a link to my Single Atheists group in the article and suddenly I got 60 new members in 3 days.

Perhaps the best bet is to start writing letters to newspapers about it or sending emails to news media about it via the AU or AA sites.

Here is the AU media center and if you enter in your zip code it brings up your politicians addresses as well as "media contacts" in your area.

The mousepad has been changed. I put that price to prevent an accidental sale while being able to display a sample. I was awaiting permission to use the graphic from the author, and wanted him to be able to look at it for approval. (Thanks Missus_Gumby!)

I have since altered it to fit the mousepad better. I hate the way graphics are displayed there, they are much more viewable at 800x600, but who runs that resolution anymore?
Sadly, I have no control over the hosts web settings.

The picture on the mousepad is this one:

I don't get the clock. Was there supposed to be a graphic there? It's just a clock.

(Great mousepad.)

Does anyone here have an idea of how many people are expected to show up for the march? I for one will see you there.

Nah, the graphic is of a polar bear in a blizzard.

Really, the graphic I was placing looked bad. I meant to remove it entirely. Gone now.

Photoshop needs a spellchecker.
