Design Choices for the Bumper Stickers

point your links to estrip
First thing first. If you have your own website or some other place where you post links, please make sure to point your links to estrip.org. The more people that points their links here, the faster we take over who ever estrip medical is in the google rankings.

bumper stickers
Okay, so here is the deal. Is it more important to have your URL in your bumper sticker or a small keyword people can type into google. If you go to google and type (e:strip) with the colon we come up right away so maybe that is best. Plus it adds the extra step of discovery for the people who type it in, making it a little more fun for them.

So which design should it be? My fav is the first one with the parathesis. Also if anyone know a local shop where we could get this done, I would much rather support local busines than order them on the internet.

Thank you to all the people who made generous donations to make this possible. A special thanks to (e:olemanrunin) who made the largest single donation we ever had at (e:strip).

I fixed the search and epoetry links

They now properly highlight the search terms in the journal they come from. Try out one of the epoetry poems by clicking on the epoetry tag on the top right of the site. When you click on any of the lines of the poem it takes you back to the original jorunal it came from with the text highlighted.

You can see it below, here is an example url

Dip it in blue cheese

I was telling (e:terry) about how I changed the title of estrip today after estrip.org came though and explaining to (e:twisted) about how Buffalo is the home of the original chicken wing, which led to the recording. It's really funny.

estrip.org bumper stickers!

Well, (e:kara) our new Public Relations director and I were talking about some improvements for getting estrip out there and one of the things was bumper stickers. I had put it off for a while because elmwoodstrip.org was too long for the design I wanted. For about 4 years I wanted to call the site estrip.org but I couldn't buy it as someone had it reserved. Then when talking with (e:shawnr) I checked estrip out at godaddy and it was for sale so I bought it.

Soon you will be able to get here by typing estrip.org into your browser. But best of all it is just the right length for the new bumper stickers. They will look something like this. I might change the font but tahoma is what I use for estrip so it makes sense.

I designed them two color so we should be able to get away with around $100, if we raise more money, I will just buy additional bumper stickers

If you would like to donate to the bumper sticker fund, please click on the donate link above the latest entries list and donate whatever you can via paypal.

Sidenote: I got rid of the userpic control panel. It's back to clicking on your userpic to change it.

Happy Almost 3,000,000

Here is a fun statistic to think about.

If you read an average of 200 words per minute
which is 12,000 words per hour
which is 288,000 per day
which is 2,880,000 per 10 days of non stop reading

you still would not be done reading the journals of estrip, and that doesn't even include the chat!

For those of you that read all of those, and I know there are some of you that have, congratulations - you deserve an award.

Happy almost 3,000,000 words. I am going to dig up some more statistics toinight. Liek how many of those words were thumbed out on mobile keypads. It hurts my thumbs to think about it.

Fixed the user sound upload fetaure

I fixed the usersound upload feature and added a feature so you can redownload it before you change it if you lost the original. That way you can redownload it if you want.

RSS feed fix

I noticed the RSS feed on (e:dragonlady)'s livejournal feed

had messged up apostrophe's that resulted when I was stripping the ampersands for some javascript I was using it for before.

It's all okay now, but (e:zobar), you should delete the cache for that wherever it is so that can re-cache.

Fixed the e:link drama

Thanks (e:terry) for bringing it up. You can now you a normal letter e with colon in a sentence.

e.g. A woman on a cell phone:
uh huh....yeah....yeah..uh huh...the one you thought was underwear...yeah...uh huh
