The new AIC(Authors & Illustrators for Children) TV ad is here


Authors & Illustrators for Children (AIC) is an organization of authors and illustrators of children's books (and their friends) who are dedicated to enhancing the world for children. That's why we're all voting for Obama! www.aiforc.org

None of us are mentioned by name but many of us are there in the fine print. Check it out and pass it on.

Buttons and other things to wear with the beautiful logo above are available from the AIC site http://www.aiforc.org/obama/

And it is also there that you will find the large, printable file of our poster.

Cheers, Ashley

Get your High resolution Poster Images HERE!

Dear contributors:

We've had great response to our poster. There have been several requests for
a high quality printed version, but we've been having trouble getting it posted
on our blog (the tiff is too big). Thankfully, Bruce Balan of AIC (Authors and
Illustrators for Children) has responded to our request for help. He is hosting
2 versions on their server:

http://www.aiforc.org/obama/pbpeople_for_obama.tif (photoshop, RGB, 9.1 MB, the
best version we have for printed documents)

and

Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm, appreciation and support for the poster. We've sent it to the national Obama headquarters and to several of the state's headquarters. Please feel free to pass it on to YOUR state's Obama headquarters. It's been posted on Michael Joseph's site (http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~mjoseph/childlit/ifo.jpg) at Rutger's University and on the AIC site (Authors and Illustrators for Children-- www.aiforc.org) (Please check this site if you haven't already--it's important and thoughtful.)

We've also had requests for a higher resolution version for printing on t-shirts, handouts, etc. Tomorrow, October 4th, we will have a photoshop tif version on this site for that purpose. Thank you again for supporting our efforts and for supporting Obama.

As we say in New Mexico--Obamanos!
Susan

Susan Guevara and Patrick O'Dell worked together with all the contributors to create this beautiful poster. It is available here in RGB format to print out at 8.5 x 11 or as large as 11x17 (1920 x 1242 pixels). It can be printed, used as a desktop image, sent via email, or downloaded to your blog or website. (When printing, the color may be more accurate if after downloading, the poster is changed to a CMYK format in photoshop.)

Please download and print, copy and email it, spread it far and wide and work for Change we can believe in in November.

Cheers, Ashley Wolff
