    I think many people coming together to show love for the band is great! That's why I thought of the zine Trading Stories with the Leaves. You can find the two issues on the right hand side of http://giventorun.blogspot.com. The third one will be out early next year, and will devote space in memory of hippiemom. I wrap each issue in pretty paper and bows and send it to Pearl Jam as a gift. I see it as a gift from all of the contributors.

    Why I write this is because it is DAMN DIFFICULT to get people to submit stuff. However, not impossible! I suggest you work with a few people. It's a great idea.

    maybe choose a nice band portrait and blow it up to like 4' tall by however long... and limit it to like 3 tones in photoshop and pixelate it... and then have everyone send in a picture that would be like 2" x 2" and a pretty solid light, medium, or dark tone... i dont think it would be too hard... im at school so we have these industrial art printers that can print up to like 30" wide... so we could just do everything right on the computer and print it out and ship it on like 5 or 6 seperate sheets that could be connected when they get it...

    i could see them appreciating something like that and maybe hanging it up in 10C headquarters or something...
    yah, we could have like a sheet from each continent or something...

    i'm decent w. photoshop i'm sure i could figure one of them out. we have a pretty nice printer at my school too, only i'm not going bck there for another 6 monthes or so...

    well if we can just divide the work amongst those that are good with photoshop... and then they can email the file to me and ill print it out... should work i would think...

    How about some new pants? Guys love getting pants for Christmas.

    Oh God, that's got me thinking about all kinds of things I shouldn't be thinking about now... heeheehee

    Seriously, I'd be up for something. It wouldn't have to cost much, would it?

    wouldnt cost much at all... if we divided the cost of printing and shipping between like 200+ people or whatever it ends up being it would probably be no more than $.25 a person... the only effort by the averager person would be to size a pic and email it to whoever is in charge...

    we can make the photos form a larger picture of like, i dno. something to do with peace or a message or something like that.
    hahah, 'fuck bush' would probably make ed happy.


    as for the pants and stuff, you could go to a printed clothing store and get the photos in a pattern on some g strings and send them as stocking stuffers... haha

    I'm not sure if somebody already mentioned this, but we could of course take a world map, or make a scrapebook of countries, and put pictures of fans in there in the shape of that specific country. This is also manageable. I live for example in Holland and I could collect all the pictures in Holland, get it all together and send it to somebody who has an overview of the whole book. Everyone does its part so to speak. We only have to agree on the size of paper, what is not allowed or allowed on the pictures (for Gods sake no strings!) etc. Maybe it's time for the band to know how we look like heh? You could also divide up the states. NY with pictures. Florida with pictures etc.

    I don't know. Just my two cents.
