paper trails to you

So we're all talking about kicking up the Monkeydick promotion engine (mostly because [a big pussy on the team who only appears badass behind closed doors and can remain anonymous] wants to "put Dillinger back in the cradle where they belong!") Almost all Harold teams at UCB have been more into the merch... flyers, stickers, shirts, etc. We've discussed things, but no decisions have been made.

The first thing on the agenda is an actual professionally-printed, color flyers. Rocco's superiors at Kinkos are giving him the stink eye over pilfering copies at work, so we have to actually pay money now.

I did some leg work on printers (see extended entry), but really, I'd rather do something besides the normal 6 x 4 that everyone does. Maybe an odd shape or a die-cut... a two-color flyer might look boss (and be cheaper).

And then there's the problem of design...
