PR: I think you have a great idea on running these banners by people who havent seen the show before. The images that intrigue me may not intrigue others. So, another idea. Lets come up with more ideas, some more banners (okay, I know this is easy for me to say since Im not making them, but I will try to come up with some ideas, and hopefully others can put graphics to them, I really am not savy enough to do it). Once that is done, we can then get members to show them to friends and see what they think. It would be best to try to keep track of age groups also, so we can target some of our promotion. Some will resonate better with young people, etc.

Finally, I again wanted to say, PR, that the banners are great. Please dont hear any of this as criticism, I wish I could do it and I can tell it takes a lot of time. So, please know I am loving your work and any ideas I have are just to help us all make a better campaign. Thanks for understanding!

We're all lovin' these, PR and we all appreciate your hard work.

I just messaged Penguin and asked him if he knew a way to make the banners be clickable and link to our site.

I hope everyone will jump on this and think of things that can be put in them.. and that some folks that know how to do it, will join in and help PR!

Speaking of clicking to sites, is there anybody thinking about the website devoted to getting new members? I would consider it more as a front-page to fff.net but with a new domain name, one a litte more catchy. Maybe Ill start a new thread...

jtskier1200r,

It's already in the works to have a site that we can point people to for the campaign. Not there yet, but it won't be much longer.

jtskier1200r,

You can send them to me at followmal@gmail.com and I'll send them on to 11th Hour, Haken and the folk who will be working on that aspect of this campaign.

Bearing in mind that this is gonna be a gateway page... that directs folks here to FFF.net, as we're gonna have a place to greet new folks and kind of get them oriented right here.

But we'd love ideas! Please!

Hey, I love making these! No worries, I'm wiling to make a whole bunch!
I get excitable as to choice, like to have my options open...
I am, however, quite grateful for suggestions, as my creativity, substantial as it is, is not a bottomless pit. So, no worries about that, either. And I only take criticism as criticism; i.e: "You need to change this and this and this..."
Bah, I'll just make new ones, that's half the fun!
Definitely let me know about this new site, though. I can easily change the text in current and future banners.

Hi
i know peeps are all busy etc.. but have people advertised the serenity summer campaign on serenitymovie.org? I have not seen any dedicated threads to get people's attention. what about getting Gossi to send out an email about the campaign to the members of that site? How about on serenitymovie.net and on the news item on that site? Do people on the prospero firefly boards know? anyways it seems all exciting and all its just im wondeirng if the folks on the other boards are aware of it.

Hi, Kurya!
Good to see you over here!

We did try a couple of threads over on Gossi's board, they disappeared. We don't know if it was a glitch or if the subject matter was objectionable and they took them down.

We have sent a request to Gossi about what happened and also a question as to whether or not it's ok to post re: the campaign on his board and if he'd be willing to allow a dedicated thread and a mailing. We don't want to step on any toes.

The other two sites, I just didn't get to. Our crew was very scattered and in some cases off line the last two weeks, including me, so we're a bit behind on the plans to spread word among the boards. We'll do better next time. We have lots of plans left.

To tell you the truth, Kurya I don't have a membership to Whedonesque and no one on our team does that I know of and even if I did I am not sure they'd appreciate any posts regarding what we're doing. As you say... bad attention might be what we get. I believe I'll leave any decisions as to that in 11th Hour's court.

Thanks for the support and the good ideas!

I went on vacation to a lodge. Every night they show a video in the lodge and it gets carried by the TVs in all the rooms. I asked one night to make it Serenity (which I had cleverly brought with me). I got some new recruits.

One of the staff said she'd missed it so I lent her the disc.

Also, I lay around reading The Killer Angels. I told anyone who asked that I was reading it because it had been the inspiration for a truly great TV show called Firefly. More recruits.
