Here’s one way to celebrate Obama’s 1-year anniversary of being elected to be the President of the United States: Obama Weather (brought to you by The Weather Channel).
Obama (or Angelina, House, or Bender) will show you how you should dress given the current and future weather predictions. Give it a try here.
16 days left to support “Designing Obama”
October 19, 2009 @ 10:50 pm
The Designing Obama book by Scott Thomas is nearing its final support and fundraising date of November 5th and the project still has just over $10,000 to raise in just 16 days!
If you don’t know, Designing Obama is a collection of the vast amount of artwork that helped draw support for then-Presidential nominee Barack Obama. It is due to the power of these visual images from these artists that Barack Obama stands as our President. The 360-page book is full-color, hardbound, and comes with an embossed sleeve.
A simple pledge of $10 will get you a digital copy of the book; a $50 pledge will receive an actual book with a white embossed sleeve (and also digital versions of the book); a $100 pledge will get you a silver edition of the book; and a $150 or more pledge will get you a gold version of the book.
You can pledge your amount now and the lovely thing is that your credit card will not be charged unless the fundraising goal is made. If it is not, you don’t get charged to buy the book (because the book will not get published). It’s a pretty great thing to stand behind I think and I encourage you all to be a part of making this book become a reality.
Designing Obama: The editing process
October 2, 2009 @ 11:19 pm
Scott Thomas’ project on Kickstarter that takes a look at the art behind the Obama campaign is chugging along pretty smoothly. Scott just posted some photos of the editing process which look pretty damn good.
Keep in mind however that Scott still needs to raise $65,000 before any of the books can be printed, so you can help out by pledging a certain amount and getting a copy of your own!
