OH how exciting!!!
I am green with envy! I watching a cooking show from Norway and it is so beautiful.
If you live at all close to Dutch's line up, do make time for him. He is such a nice fella. I will one day get to meet Girlfriend. I have only talked to her on the phone!
I will be waiting for a full report.
I have met both Chandler and Sensei. Very nice fellas.
Have a wonderful time!

First pictures of our new promotion tool have been taken.:
A counterstand for use separately or in combination with our promotional stand.
The coverartdesign is an idea of Novakat and me, based on an original SST-wallpaper by BhelPuri.
Novakat did the designwork.

Awesome! I love it.
Kudos to BhelPuri and Dutch and especially to NovaKat for designer work!
*wonders what equipment Dutch and Nova did design and install inside the counterstand...*

Nothing inside but shelves.
Manpower behind it, leaflets on top will have to do the trick.
Together with Caliburn's mock-up version of SST we have a strong weapon.

Great work!
But...
Do you have permissions to use those covers (the cover art)? Does "fair use" cover that? Just wondering... |

Yes, Galfin, this is covered by 'fair use' These covers are all purchased by SST via CD and used on a non-commercial basis.
Due to the fact that SST pays licensefees for the broadcast we are allowed to use the cd-coverart to publish that on our own website and SST-communications. If we would use it to advertise it on another website or as external advertising say in a magazine then we would have to have extra permission.
I presume the US legislation follows the European one in this case, otherwise we should have to register SST in Europe too for this, what apparently will happen in the near future.
In fact recordcompanies ought to pay us for advertising

Thank you for the answer, Dutch!
I thought you must haveconsidered these issues but I wanted to bring it up just so that it's clear also to others who may be wondering.
How did you agree on which covers to include or was it left to NovaKat's judgement?
Great job, NovaKat! I especially like the grouping of faces in the central part... |

Actually every cover have at least 1 face
That was the only criteria to have it on the counter

Yeah, I noticed that faces and humans were a big theme on the covers but I was somehow drawn to the Hidalgo, Lady in the Water, Premonition cluster. |

Yeah, Siri has put it right, my idea was to have faces on every cover to go with the tagline.
The idea to use and existing wallpaper-mozaïk was therefore the most evident.
Nova was free in placing the covers in the grid.
Personally, my only request was to have Puss in Boots quite central
During preview with Nova I already expressed my likes of Premonition and the Evolution-smiley.
I hope everyone finds faces he or she is attracted to or give the joy of reckognition.
