Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! OP here. Uhhhh, they're showing up fine for me in the OP. Here are direct links in case the op isn't working for anyone else:
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! I can't see the images, either OP. No error, just nothing shows even when I go to the link in a new window, etc...
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! MOTHER@#&*E. Now they're not showing up for me. Here's links again using another upload site (Tinypic). Let's hope this works
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! works for me now. could an advantageous mod add them to the OP by any chance?
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! YOu need mugshots, as in, from the side aswell. Also, where is DM? And make it more clear where the information on why they are "wanted" is, not just a little subtext.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! DM is on there. Also, these are supposed to be more viral than anything. I mean how often do you see "Wanted" posters anyway? most people will stop and look. that is, if you're not already putting them in people's hands at a protest.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! Nicely constructed. Issues I have: 1. Many typos/errors-spelling grammatical. 2. I don't agree with directing people to call them. It's one thing if we call them, quite another if we are directing people to their phones. It gives them contact and opportunity to try to justify their nonsense. How about directing them to call US?
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! I think you're being a little too generous with DM's height estimate, other than that they're great.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! Important note: In some jurisdictions, putting up joke "wanted" posters is actually illegal. Check that before hanging any up yourself.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! IB4 starting to look like the cult's "beware your neighbor" posters!
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! If the posters had said something about the FBI or federal authorities, it would have been a potential violation of 33 USC ยง 709 except they are pretty obviously jokes. The individual states might have stricter laws, though I think being obvious enough jokes probably makes it OK - you have to make sure for yourself though, and I definitely wouldn't make a poster that wasn't a very obvious joke.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! Why not post a disclamer at the bottom of the poster. In 8pt FINE FINE FINE print?
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! morning....yawn.... cool idea... but do these fall under defamation of charachter laws? and even if they are true as opposed to to their blcak PR crap (like their Freedom Magazine and the Anon booklet)..... isn't it kind of like using the same tactices that we accuse them of ? just sayin' A regular person walking by may take these seriously? Imagine if these are the reason that they have something thrown out of court because the public already perceived them as guilty before they even got to court? Crying unfair trial. yeah I know.... a huge tin foily long shot..but I wouldn't put it past them, would you? lulzy indeed........but will this end up being a whole lot of trouble?
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! I would've thought, in the spirit of anonymous, it would be better to have "DO NOT WANTed".
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! win I wonder if this could be defamation in non US countries...
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! I prefer the idea of missing persons posters, for all those reported to have been kept from contact with family outside. Not suggesting instead of, but just as another idea in a similar vein.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! It's funny, but this is true. But it's funny, which is more important.
Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! Not that I don't think that this is a cool idea, but the ONE THING that scientologists are good at is whining and crying to authorities (especially departments with friendly ears, like LAPD, and London Police) about perceived quasi-illegal/quasi-legal slights. (ALso, in 2010 there may be a need for the "real deal" posters and it's best not to muddy the waters) The "Missing" poster idea would work better. I'd suggest talking to Clearwater and LA anons and OG to see about sea orgres that have gone missing from their families for an overlong period of time. Hey, OP. Can you post blank templates?

Re: BUSTED! - Scientology Wanted Poster Series! OP: Thanks for the flyer. I design my own and use 'em.The ideas come straight from my heart. I find that is the best way. I don't need anyone's advice on the design or wording either. I just do it and distribute. I'm sure you will take the advice here in the right spirit but those that don't like your flyer don't have to use it. Simple as that. As long as it has heart and is straight from your heart; I'm sure it will be fine.
We did something similar for the Boston Org. Sorry about the image quality, I don't have the fonts I need to open it up again in InDesign to export a proper png. This was just converted from the pdf:
