I have an idea to help identify forum members to each other. For those who are creating signs, some where in the sign write "TexasCHLForum.com" . That will help us find other forum members and at the same time give some free publicity to the forum which could result in more CHL'ers joining the forum. And if it gets on TV, that's just icing on the cake.

:tiphat:
I like your idea of putting the website on the signs! :tiphat:

We could also have T-Shirts made up that say:

"Friend of CHarLes" :biggrinjester:

Sort of a double-meaning there (CHL and also Mr. Charles Cotton, the esteemed founder of this great forum :tiphat: ).

Well heck, since everyone likes it, I know what my sign will say. :mrgreen:

I'll be the mid 20s dark haired guy with a beard (well trimmed) in jeans and a black polo shirt. Come say hi. :tiphat:

Obama just said the American public wanted new gun laws.

I hope hundreds of thousands of gun owners show up this saturday all across the country to prove him wrong.

Here's a sign that I made up (with the Schindler's List quote). It is 11" wide x 17" tall (the limit of my B&W printer at the office). Feel free to copy/paste/use...if anyone wants the high-res PDF file to use/print on a larger format printer just shoot me a PM. I purposely used the font...I feel it conveys the message well, can y'all easily read it? :tiphat:

HINT: if part of the image is obscured then control+click and "open image in new window" to see the whole sign.

Agreed. If the showing is poor, it will hurt us.

Bump.

This thing almost fell off the front page of this section.

I want to keep encouraging people to come. Strength in numbers and all that.

Just saw this. If I had seen it earlier, I would have talked my wife into starting her conference trip early.

Dang it....I'll be there in spirit.

Please post amy videos or pictures y'all get.
