Just curious...was it a strategy of yours to not tie the athletic fee to generating a new stadium? Seeing as there's no graphic or text mention of it on there.

The tiny letters at the bottom say: "Paid For by 'Students for a New Stadium'"

I used no graphics because that increased the cost. This was a template and I just plugged in the words.

Just curious why everyone and their dog feels the need to make a new post complaining about the sign.... Really, what are you expecting to accomplish? We are all extremely frustrated and worried about the design and ultimately the program in general, but what good is another thread with more whining going to do? The sign is boring, we all know that. But all of this negativity is serving no purpose except to snowball and bring moral down even further. I think that anyone who was has seen the sign already has a low enough morale as it is. There is just no need to keep stating the obvious over and over, so take a rest already. :thumbsup:

What exactly are you trying to accomplish by voicing your displeasure with the design of the sign? Really, what are you expecting to accomplish? We are all extremely frustrated and worried about the design and ultimately the program in general, but what good is another thread with more whining going to do?

You may argue there isn't anything to be positive about, but in my mind, the problem with the vitriol and negativity is that there is so few threads recognizing the things about that sign that made me smile-happy.

So I will start:

It's BY GOD Green and was absolutely worth the price of printing.

The cynical will say I just about covered it. But if you try, you will find more to be happy about it.

You should have told me en avance-I coulda done good by ya for a design.

Note that the fee isn't JUST for the stadium.

I've also found that "bizarre" and funny signs have generated unlikely votes in student elections. Not sure if you guys have had any recently.

You need a picture of some smokin' babes on there. And maybe a sweet muscle car or T-rex or something.

This isn't Arkansas or Oklahoma. Why not add a raised F250 with big diesel exhaust running up the cab?:P

I was not complaining about the sign. I think what Derrick has done is nothing short of incredible. I just worry about the other 30,000 or so students who aren't a part of the Facebook group or aren't completely informed about the situation and hope they connect the athletic fee to bringing a new stadium. I'm sorry if it came off as anything different.

I saw this sign as an advertisement on facebook a few minutes ago and was pretty surprised. It even had the website to vote on right below it. Thought this was a pretty good idea- just sayin

Yup - that's where some of this money is going. It's amazing, because I can specifically run the ad for North Texas students... more bang for the buck.

Here's what it looks like:

Sorry for getting repetitive but don't you realize that voting students are reading these posts?

That's two charges of intellectual property infringement.

This is the sign that will be purchased with the funds raised by "Students for a New Stadium"

Nice looking signs. Can they be placed by the Dorms? Rec Center? Outside of Fouts near the student side before the game today?
