As we haven't had an update for a little while this picture has given us the perfect opportunity for a new post.Thorsten has been sent this copy of the poster he created for us, via Reverend Milo, it took me a few seconds to work out who the signatures were from, but then the lightbulb lit !
By the way the winners of the Haiti relief competion are still being processed. We had a lot of entries to go through and we are waiting for PayPal and Save The Children to finalise the donations without any admin change being applied.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 241 of 241For what is worth, I did really like the Chainsawhands "Don't Let Them Touch" Print. The artist is also a fan of the show and wanted an afforable print fans of the show could appreciate (and afford). $20 is very cheap, especially for such a limited run.
As for his other work, to each his own. Previously, I had purchased his handfinished "Merry Christmas, Jesus" print.
Less than a week to Episode 1!
Well, look at that - I'm a real page turner.

I guess it didn't go through. The JJ Abrams game link
Both links work for me Lisa.

First worked for me :)
I don't know if there's going to be a re-set, but you can try to re-set yourself, on 9/22/10

AWESOME LOST Easter Egg (found on www.boingboing.net), on www.kayak.com:
Link to boingboing post
Type in Sydney to LAX, Wed Sep 22, and you'll see the option to choose Oceanic Airlines!!!!!
COOOOOOL! Love this type of promotional easter eggery!
@Amy Lynn - Wow, beat me to it by almost 30mins... I guess I should read the comments before I post...
@ChrisL - I still can't believe I even got one... let alone an Artist Proof! He had already given some to his subscribers, so there were less of the 50 left than normal. I feel like I definitely hit the poster Lotto on this one!
I'm at work, but I'm going to try to email them if I have a free moment. I would love to get some details if they don't mind sharing them with me/us. :-)
Still waiting nervously for my "white whale" (ie. The Crash). Completion is almost within reach...! ;-)
My $.02 worth- I like the Merry Christmas, Jesus print and also purchased it. I think it shows the commercialization of Christmas at Jesus' expense (though he did get a B-Day cupcake!). His other art might not be for everyone's tastes, but Don't Let Them Touch is an awesome must have, in my opinion, especially for the price. Can't wait to see what the hand-finishing looks like!
That Oceanic Airlines easter egg is pretty funny!
Unrelated, here's a pic of my Hatch framed.
click to see
Side note: it'd be cool if someone could collect photos of everyone's framed art so others can see different ideas of how to get prints framed!!
@CreedFeed - whoa, those colors pop. Nice framing job!
Can't believe S6 is only 5 days away!!
@mistershow @amylynn haha if you try booking a flight then you end up at lostpedia.. haha
@Creedfeed - there's a thread titled "Show Me Your Poster" on Spoiler TV where ppl have posted pics of their framed prints.
@CreedFeed nice framing
Love all the links this morning
Zort's put up an inter view with Todd Slater
did you notice the price for the tickets ont he Oceanic tickets ? 4815.16 price & 23.42 taxes Of course I had to print it out. lol
@creedfeed, I see you came up with a solution to The Hatch and its lack of a built-in border (like The Swan Station). Is it mounted to some kind of backer board? How? And then double-matted?
Nice!
Cosmically Yours
Yes, there's a backing board. I don't know much about art and framing... this was the first piece of art work I've ever bought. I took it to a local framing shop and had it professionally done. They put the poster up on the wall and showed me several samples and gave recommendations, showing why they recommended it. It cost about $150 total for the poster to be framed.
just heard from Lauren Gregg - she has been told that ABC are clamping firmly on Lost "inspired" art, so has taken down the smokie print... if you didn't get one, you ain't getting one.
Surely that's semi official though Ben? It was at the exhibition! Plus, they'd be struggling to take action on an illustrated piece like that I'd have thought. Still, I guess Lauren wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of ABC. Better safe than sorry. I'm very pleased I managed to get one. Thanks again for the heads up.
@ChrisL, semi official or not, I assume anyone who had a piece there that night signed a contract detailing exactly what they could and could not do.
apparently Jensen just advised her that ABC have a friendly department who'se job it is to scour the net for copyright infringement on their big acts. So I'd expect those other semi-official prints to start vanishing, if that department exist, and / or are good at their jobs. :(
So....I'm drowning in poster tubes! What do I do with them all?

also, can I make a request? S6 will air a good few days in the USA before the UK. I still love this site, and want to be here, but if it's going to be impossible to avoid spoilers, I'm going to have to leave. Please don't make me leave!
I guess that means no Charlie and Polar Bear for us. Shame.
futureself. I finally had to move a load into the loft last weekend!
I think we decided that after LOST airs in EST next Tuesday, everyone is on their own. Buyer beware.
lame! fully understandable, but lame!
I don't know if you all have seen this if so sorry for re-posting
For LOST fans: Search http://www.kayak.com/flights for Sydney to LAX one-way non-stop on 9/22/2010.
Ben, I'm going to have to ensure I see it on Wed somehow so I can share the joy with our US friends.
stupid mouse.
Chris, I've changed my work shifts to give me Wednesday's off, starting next week ;)
Ben yes, Disney does and will put a stop to sales that they think are infringing on there rights. Trust me, I have first hand knowledge since they sent me a cease and desist letter as well, for something I made. I was going to buy a Charlie print :-(
ChrisL, yes me too! Were going to be 3 weeks behind. That = no internet. Cant happen. Just have to find a solution, like mp4!...
I've put the Methane Studios info in a NEW POST
Doesn't Disney have a friendly agreement with CafePress? Can you sell anything other than T-Shirts there? It might be a good way to stay on ABC's good side...
I'm going to have to dig up the new agreement they just made...
Just checking in... On United Flight #81, about to depart LA _X, Damon, Carlton and Adam are on my flight!! I double checked with them to make sure we are indeed going to HI and not some other island. ;) What a fantastic way to start my LOST adventure!! :D
