I would appreciate your comments, and would love to see if any of you could try producing some posters today. It may only take you a few minutes to download the software, create and import an image, then break it into a tiled PDF file. See what it all looks like when printed, too.

I would be happy to create some color logos and graphics for any of you who would like some great looking protest posters.

A lot of HP inkjet printers have a “Posterize” option that will tile output.

For Pete's sake, this is getting ridiculous - This thread belongs in Activism. Silly has posted a thread about some free poster software which will be helpful to Freepers who actually get out in the street and do stuff!

Can you please put this thread back into the Activism/Chapters sidebar?

Doing market research on bumper sticker ideas counts as activism, but poster-making software and my thread about a missing DC Chapter MOAB ("chapter news and business") doesn't?!

Did I fall through the looking glass or something?

WOW!!!! Cool.

Thanks ever so much. I’ve been wracking my brain trying to figure out how I was going to do exactly this for some signs I need to make in the next two weeks.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Pinging the DC Chapter to a good, and free, poster-making software tool that Freeper Silly found. Have fun with it! See you all out on the streets.

I've been using Picasa, another free program which does the same thing except the pieces are jpg files instead of pdf files. I tape the back with masking tape and have tried the front with clear tape and also gluing the front with a glue stick. I usually use the text option in a photo application then use Picasa to "posterize" it into sections. I have a bunch of old thin plastic campaign signs I use for backing.

These two signs below have clear tape on the front and are two sides of the same sign (I always use both sides!) :


(Above) I got the image on the left from FReeper davidlachnicht

This one below has glue instead of tape on the front:
