Before the server-crash there was news about the KK book, after the booklaunch party, and where it was sold, like at <a href=redirect.php3?op=redir&sid=10&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.kesselskramerforsale.com>Kesselskramerforsale.com</A>. Visitors didn't want to buy their own though, they wanted the one I had, because it is signed, well good news kiddo's, I got another SIGNED book! And this one has your name on it! <br><br><table width="80%" border="0">
<tr>
<td width="72%" valign="top">
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">Two
weeks ago when KesselsKramer had their release party for their book,
I reported this here: <i>"Adland managed to get a copy at the
releaseparty on Friday night. When exclaiming "is it signed!?"
Erik Kessels responded by grabbing the nearest marker and scribbling
the text you see inside the front cover. So, yes, we guess Adland's
copy is signed then." </i></font></p>
<p align="center"><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2"><i><img src="grph/signed.gif" width="180" height="45"><img src="grph/kbook.gif" width="150" height="150" align="absmiddle"></i></font></p>
<p align="left"><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2"><i><br>
</i>Visitors quickly commented that they wanted the signed book, they
wanted some kind of lottery, anything, a competition, <i>whatever</i>,
as long as they could get their hands on that book.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">Well,
I spoke to Onno at KK and arranged to get another book, again signed!
And as a bonus, five silly KK gadgets for the ones who come close
to winning, but no hand rolled cuban smoking material.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">So
whats the deal then? Simple. Draw a cartoon! (I'm not going to ask
you to make some kind of ad, we do that all day). A one frame cartoon
that is related to the bizarre world of advertising. I don't care
if you draw stick figures on a napkin as long as it is funny. You
can do a complicated illustrator or flash job if that is what you
want, you can do anything you please! A photo-comic if you like! (good
time to abuse/use that office-polaroid) The catch is:</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">It
has to be able to be sent over the web, so whatever you do, change
it to a gif or jpeg, no larger than 600*400 pixels (or 400*600 if
you want it viewed that way). It has to be a one-frame-comic. (ie:image
in combination with text, you <i>know</i> what I mean). It<i> has</i>
to be about advertising. It could be one of those hilarious comments
your collegue manages to blurt out at the wrong time in meetings.
It could be an observation. It could be silly. It could be sarcastic.
The tricky part is, you gotta make me laugh. :)</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">And
not just me, when the deadline draws near, I will publish <b>all </b>of
the comics on Adland, and let the users vote for the best one. The
one with the most votes wins.The second third and other runners ups
still get a KK toy mailed to them, <i><b>anywhere in the world. </b></i></font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">You
must allow your work to be republished by me here at adland (and here
only) in any way I goddam please. If you have a link to offer with
it, add that in the mail and I will link your work to your site as
well.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">Yes
I know, someone with a lot of friends might rig the system by asking
all his pals to vote for his work, but I will arrange so that any
given IP can vote only once a day. It's not an ideal system perhaps,
but I think it is better than if I was the only judge. You got nothing
to loose and everything to gain, so c'mon, get cracking, mail your
images to <a href=redirect.php3?op=redir&sid=10&url=%22mailto%3Acompetition%40ad-rag.com%22>dabitch</a> as soon
as you make them. And yes, for the overacheivers, you may enter more
than once.</font></p>
<p><font face="Verdana, sans-serif, Arial, Geneva, Helvetica" size="2">The
deadline for sending images will be <b>august 20.</b> I will put them
up on the site august 21st. Voting will continue until september,
then we will know who won. <BR> I plan to do this again, future competitions included prizes
from agencies around the world. watch this space....</font></p>
