I got a horrible blank space on my wall and thought I d paint a poster - but Zenster had the perfect idea to send the empty poster from doper to doper so that everybody would add something to it 🙂

Would anybody partcipate in this?  
Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaz!

Hmmm…there would have to be a good, safe way to transport it. I’m assuming a mailing tube but we’d have to be verrry, verrrry careful. Do you trust us enough? If so, I’d do it!

I was thinking…maybe better than trying to coordinate mailing one poster around the world, you’d consider setting a page size based on the space you’re filling and number of interested Dopers, then have everyond mail you a contribution (in that specified size), once they’ve all arrived, you could assemble them on said poster paper and hang on your wall. It would reduce risk of damage to the original and minimize postage expenses.

It’s…just a thought…

(BTW, I’ve helped make blankets this way.)

I’m game . . . I also suggest we let petz take this thing over, as she seems to have some sort of idea how the hell to do this.

Bear in mind Peta and I live fairly close to eachother.

Petz can also spell peta, which is an added bonus:)

I give up. Four hours coding in html today and an almost-crashed “final” project for English has disabled my spelling button. I doubt my brain will be of much use for the rest of the week.
