I just saw the EDUCATION sign on the wiki that Alex started. Nice one.<BR>
<BR>
Any ideas for what 8-ish words to use? If so, add your ideas to the wikI<BR>

<DIV>BUT, if you know the rules about billboard design, you can break them. That's why I suggested doing a comic. The comic idea would NOT work for a billboard on a highway though, only for billboards in an urban center (you need pedestrians).</DIV>

<DIV>P.S. No need to worry about upgrading a server for a billboard, it will not create a lot of demand. HOWEVER, if you get some good PR out of it in some way, then that may.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>P.P.S. There are other outdoor advertising options besides billboards.</DIV>
