so we cant suggest a cool banner or somethign done in photoshop.

Cant we like photoshop a banner and print it out and post it in the mall. It is Christmas time.

so i guess this is my Idea..

have like a piece of paper photoshopped so its Catchy..
have it Say… something like if your stuck of Gift ideas..? Check out this recently released Holiday Catalog..etc etc.
Make sure its vibrant colors…

umm it is Christmas season so posting it by electronic stores would be best and by internet cafes and such since they can go look quickly.

The holiday catalog has just been released and Christmas is near so might as well use it to bring in some users.

What I meant by no photoshopping is not to send in “fake proof”.

For example, dont send me an image of the words “Gear Live” written in the sky by an airplace that you actually just came up with in photoshop.

You can use photoshop to design something that you are going to put somewhere, sure.

But be creative. I’m talking about going to your local Circuit City and bringing up Gear Live on all their PC’s and then taking a picture of it. Or painting it on your chest and walking around the mall with no shirt on.

😛

Okay I think I have an idea. 

1. Record yourself saying like “Go to gearlive.com for free electronics…why are you paying for stuff here if you can just go get it for free…blah blah blah”

2. Put it on your ipod and go to a circuit city or some store like that

3. Go the the stereo section and tune all of the radio stations to the same station and then turn on your ipod and use your itrip to play it really loud throughout the store.

4. Walk around the store with the ipod in your pocket so it won’t look to suspicious.


I’m not going to do it but I thought it was a decent idea…

Actually I think I will do that.  Probably this Thursday at either Best Buy or Circuit City.  I’m not sure if I can take pictures of the people b/c that might look a bit suspicious and I might get kicked out.  I will however show you pictures of the mp3 playing with an itrip.  I don’t know if that’s proof enough but I’d rather not get arrested.  My and my friend are gonna have a blast with this.

PS I’m gonna put in something like “Yeah you in the stereo aisle” in it so people will think it’s like god speaking to them.  This should be fun!

(maybe even put it in a big box with rocks so they think its something big before they open it..

we could install a money mod on this forum. more we refer to this forum we get money small amount. then when the ref get alot of posts it increases every 1000 or so. the points could go toward dvds and all.

it wont cost much and with the points u could sell banner space.

also i wanted the xbox 😢

I want to go streaking with the words Go to Gearlive.com for an A$$ of a time on my A$$!... LMAO!

Or Paper my self with gearlive.com Posters adn walk around Best Buy.


Hmmm. Maybe I could just drop in Little Papers that say “GearLive.com For Free Stuff” in all teh salvation Army tubs. Or the toys for Tots tub.

Hmmm. If this was around Halloween time I would go and give out gearlive flyers instead of candy.

Or you could go an all the presents under a tree at a business type up and tape gearlive flyers to them….

Everyone go to a URL redirection site and make a url redirection to GearLive.  This will move Gearlive up on google.com nd more people will come to it.

Make thousands of papers that say Gearlive.com over and over and over and walk into some store and throw them EVERYWHERE and hopefully everyone will be nice and oick one up, once they pick it up they will see Gearlive.com and think some weird stuff goes on there if someone just did this and visit it. :D

If you’re talking to me I’ll try and get some.  I’m not sure how it will go over with the best buy people though.  They might not like me walking around taking pictures of people :D

I’ll try it but I’m gonna have to borrow my girlfriends camera phone.  I figured I wouldn’t ever need a camera on a phone so I just bought a regular phone.  Who would have ever though of that?? :D

I guess I should’ve gotten a camera phone now…

I’m on vacation this week…I am definately going to do that…but I think Best Buy would work better than circuit city.  Actually, I am going to go to a few stores—Thanks for the great idea!  :evil:
