i'm not quite sure how many artsy foxy-friends/fans we have but i thought i'd ask a question of you. the foxymorons are finally getting around to making some stickers. you know, the kind you see plastered all over bathrooms in rock clubs and on the back windshields of indie rock highschooler's volvos. before we attempted to draw a sticker with our kindergarten chicken scratch crayon skills, we figured we should ask you guys for some help. so now we're asking begging. "help us make a cool sticker!" we'll give everyone two weeks to come up with their best designs. then we'll post 'em on the web and have a vote. the winner will get a free stack of stickers (with your winning design), a copy of the regurgitation cover album, and a super-rare copy of our very first release, "the gray slacks cassette". we only made five copies of this so you'll be the envy of all your friends. heck, i don't even have a copy.

as far as design specs and stuff. here's the info. we're giving you two sizes to choose from. one is a rectangle (5.50" x 1.42") and one is a square (2.75" x 2.75"). i know, they're small but hey, it's our first sticker. we gotta start somewhere. if you're doing a drawing or painting, you can make them large scale. we'll shrink 'em down for you. just do your math right!

so if you're interested, here's the info:
1. make our name, the foxymorons, visible.
2. sneak the web address, www.foxymorons.com, in somewhere.
3. only use black, white, or grays.
4. mail a drawing/painting or email a 300 dpi TIFF / EPS / or JPEG.
5. deadline for entries is friday september 14th. we'll start the voting the following monday.

here are some confusing side comments from the printing company for those of you that care or understand what the heck they're talking about. "Make your design simple! Intricate and super-fine lines (less than 1-pt) tend to dry up in the screen and might not show up on your sticker. Serifed fonts can be a nightmare for us — especially at small point sizes. Set all type at LEAST 10 points. If you want a negative image printed, we can reverse your artwork. We screen all halftones at 55 lpi. Convert all fonts to curves or include them with your file!"

hello. this is foxymoron david making my first "real" post on the journal page. i hope this thing ends up working and stuff. it could be cool. wish i knew how to do a blog voices kinda thing. that'd be cool to have too. so people could make comments and stuff. anyways, making website can be a pain in the butt. i'd much rather be writing a new song. now that's a good thing to waste time on. maybe i should post an mp3 of one of our new four track demos for the new album?? stay tuned. i might just do that.

hello, is anybody in there?
testing.
hello?
