I submitted a poster to deviantart.

Thanks for that!
Anybody else got some marketing ideas?
I forgot that CM and FM had forums, so I'll pop over there and see what I can stir up.

edit: hope Rob doesn't mind the use of the baby image.

Looks good! . . . the baby was a bit odd, though. I was like suddenly in Stanely Kubrick land or something

Awesome!
That looks really good!
Do you think you could speed up the tines on the letter-by-letter parts, it moves a little slow there and it might lose people's attention. If they can't read fast enough, then they can let it loop through again.
Besides that, this is perfect!

Wow!!

Every mornin I wake up and it just gets better!

Banners, artwork, flyers and -- music.

Truly an international effort that makes me feel fairly proud mates!

Good morning from the Middle Kingdom

Cheers,
Alex

While manning the thread here tonight, I've been perusing your science site. Amazing!

Discussions like:
"...Scientists at Haystack have made the first radio detection of deuterium, an atom that is key to understanding the beginning of the universe...."

Boggles the brain pan! Cool

Thanks!

And, oh, some Auchentochan does wonders for the worked-out mind.

I'd fancy some of that wonderful Aalborg Akvavit from up that way meself

OK, should be easy enough. I thought it was too fast so I guess I overcompensated. Give me a few and I'll update it.

lol. Just trying to add anything other than text...

Yeah, the baby would throw off anybody that is not familiar with the Resonance project. It's cool, but doesn't really need to be there imo.

Just my 2 cents.

No, I agree and I took it out - and sped up the whole thing. It made sense to me, but after thinking "what if I don't know about that CD" it seemed out of place. Check it out now and see if it's better, same link.

nice work mn. Thats a really cool banner. I didnt get to see the baby though

[freeztar]

Perfect!

I had cropped and used this image of Rob's from the tsunami CD: http://www.musiciansforasia.com/. But it didn't really work in this banner, not to mention I didn't ask first.

edit: I learned via some of the guys at stillstream chat that the cover artwork is actually a painting by Emiliano Movio, which I have now verified by using a new scientific process involving actually LOOKING at the CD rather than relying on my vague recollections.

I've been working on a coupla the 'old fashioned' marketing tactics, but I don't know....
