Talk about creative advertising! I wish I'd thought of it.

Thanks, Rapaire. Good ideas.
My server treats the link as a pop-up, so I have to 'allow' it by crtl.
Others may have the same problem.

There is some very clever stuff there. I particularly like the shuttle with the silo for a fuel tank.

Wonder why it shows as a pop-up for you, Q? Here is the URL: http://www.wyominglibraries.org/campaign.html

It's a great campaign. I heard they passed out free copies of "My Antonia" by Willa Cather as part of a "Wyoming Reads" campaign.

These are clever! It didn't take me long to route that URL through my workplace. :)

I NEED that "Cold Dead Fingers" bumpersticker for my brother. I'd put one on my car too.

Very clever. I'd like to know if it pays off.

Since when do libraries promote objectifying women? http://www.wyominglibraries.org/images/mudflap-girl-bookmark.jpg

Since the campaign. It's never happened in the history of advertisement before this.

However, who's to say that isn't a guy?

It's not objectifying women; it's fighting *fire* with well-read *fire*! Heck, it could be proof that all blondes are NOT airheads!

Did I tell of the t-shirt I saw recently? It said, "Metaphors be with you."

Slightly over 2/3rds of the registered borrowers are women; about 87% of the profession is female.

What's the problem here?

GUEST moniker for the post. That's what the problem is.
