Fourth destination: Mr. LSC (received)
Fifth destination: Kitcat
=====================================================
So me and alex are putting the plan into action.
http://z15.invisionfree.com/UCPSB/index.php?showtopic=5711In order to minimize risk, we're only sending an insert (With a lot of extra width to roll the paper with, which gives us extra space) across the world for everybody to sign the back of the paper. You don't need to allocate space on the insert graphics for signatures, since we're signing the back of the paper! (Reverse side of the paper)
So far we have people like kam, tohlz, nhk_9 etc... agreeing to signing it.
What we need now is a
high-quality RSVP MX insert.
-It must be 300dpi
-The theme must "universality of Pen Spinning"
-No funky color scheme (keep it formal)
-COP may or may not be marked.
-No logo unless you have every logo on it.
-Make the graphic 2x the height visible when rolled.
Submit your entries here or on PM.
Your insert will then be featured on the main prize for the WPS07 tournament winner.

What're the normal MX insert sizes again?
I think they're in the GPMT...
MikeN - March 14, 2007 11:32 PM (GMT)
I think the insert should be the world tourny logo...
:dunno:

from the FAQ:
RSVP MX insert info
1. width: 9cm
2. height: 3.81cm
3. COP is located 4cm from the "back" side (where the RSVP cap will be located).
4. only 1/2 of the insert (vertically) will be visible when the insert is rolled up.
5. only 1/4 of the insert will be visible at any time when looking straight on at the insert.
This one has width already doubled (so don't double this again). Someone correct this data if wrong.
YourClone - March 15, 2007 01:24 AM (GMT)
Okay, I'll get to work on this.
EDIT:
Here's my first attempt:
http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b94/Your...urneyinsert.pngThe flaws in the text should disappear when printed to the smaller size but if they don't I'll fix it.
COP is marked by the line with the red glow. =)
And I left plenty of room for signatures too, which is why its so empty.
Zombo - March 15, 2007 03:14 AM (GMT)
YourClone,
sorry if I wasn't clear. Signatures will be on the back of the page, so you don't have to worry about leaving space for those. They won't be visible when rolled in, you actually have to take out the insert and unroll it to see all the signatures.
Also half the width is visible, in this case, we will never see either the black dot or the white dot. We do only half, with the other half serving as a "buffer"
Also the black color is not uniform (not sure if that was intended)

Insert
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 01:57 PM (GMT)
just a simple insert

edit: sry not 300 dpi >_>, but if someone likes the insert i can make it again with 300 dpi...
Zombo - March 17, 2007 02:02 PM (GMT)
do you have a 300 dpi version of it?
I don't get why it says ""energycore" but the concept is very cool, I like (in general).
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 02:03 PM (GMT)
ok i'll make one with something different than energycore ^^
edit: what about the text "worldspin"?
NF Alex - March 17, 2007 02:14 PM (GMT)
The insert should be made to fit in a Ballsign. Bonkura doesn't spin MX. :rolleyes:

| Insert v2 |
very cool, can you make it so that the insert starts from the top, not the bottom?
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 02:31 PM (GMT)
Insert v3everything allright? :lol:
Zombo - March 17, 2007 02:32 PM (GMT)
hmm all you did was reverse...? if I print it backwards, the letters are going to be read upside down!. can you move the text and logo from v2 to the top of the insert
oh, and write in the corner your signature, or "credits", so we know its yours.
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 02:35 PM (GMT)
Is this right?you mean like this?
edit: read your edit too late xD
Zombo - March 17, 2007 03:16 PM (GMT)
yea like that! now write your credits!
Ivan the Terrible - March 17, 2007 03:44 PM (GMT)
The insert is nice but couldn't you find a nicer world map pic. Like Europe is really weird, there is no Italy and Spain isn't connected to the other part.
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 03:49 PM (GMT)
Insert v6Insert v6.1the world map is just symbolic, but i can try if i find a better one...
edit: ah, i know the problem, italy and the connection to spain were deleted by cutting out the map....>_>
Zombo - March 17, 2007 04:02 PM (GMT)
so is 6.1 your final version? The version where you fixed the world map?
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 04:06 PM (GMT)
no, it's just the version with the "insert created by"
i'm searching a bigger world map because the one i used is too small, italy will be deleted every time...
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 04:24 PM (GMT)
Version 6.2new world map, but i think greenland isn't complete <_<
damn, no good world map in the whole world wide web o_O
Zombo - March 17, 2007 04:29 PM (GMT)
cool, can you remove "Insert Created by:" I don't tihnk it's necessary, just your isgnature is fine.
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 04:34 PM (GMT)
Insert v6.2.1it's finished.......xD
Zombo - March 17, 2007 04:39 PM (GMT)
Hey I just printed the insert, but because the background is white, I don't know where to cut the insert in on the white paper :/ Add a border or something.
Ice-H - March 17, 2007 04:52 PM (GMT)
Insert v6.2.2NOW it's finished xD
Zombo - March 17, 2007 05:00 PM (GMT)
yes, thank you.
I will start the insert's world tour shortly.

Zombo = OWNED :D
Sweet insert <3 The world map looks pretty accurate too, and definitely better than the other one.
Zombo - March 17, 2007 06:35 PM (GMT)
Alright... here it is, I've printed the insert:

People are going to sign in the reverse side:
First destination: kam!
Sathon - March 17, 2007 07:54 PM (GMT)
Hmm...I kinda expect this to be printed on a special paper, better quality, easier to roll and such to protect the signatures. Normal paper double size would be hard to roll...
But I really like the sweet Daisy insert.

what kind of paper is that?
Sathon - March 17, 2007 08:23 PM (GMT)
Eh I dunno ask kam? His gathering insert you can take out easy, sign it, and put it back.
Edit, Maybe screw the one you made (If you haven't send it yet)
Get kam print it on his paper if he has that already and not busy, then make him sign first.
K4S - March 17, 2007 08:33 PM (GMT)
Damn, that insert is sexy. Nice work, Ice-H !
Zombo - March 17, 2007 08:34 PM (GMT)
he've sent me inserts before, they were normal paper so i dunno what you're talking about. I'm first sender because I have to sign it too.
I've already tested the inserts, they work well.
Sathon - March 17, 2007 08:55 PM (GMT)
Ok I just remove insert from gathering mx and feel it it's not normal paper for sure other people could prove that. The thickness could be the same but outer surface is little more glossy. It not really easier to roll, but it's harder to get screwed or folded while rolling. When I meant kam sign it first I mean he sign it and send it to you to sign next.
Meh that doesn't matter I guess if you tested and it worked fine. I just think huge insert is harder to roll.
Zombo - March 17, 2007 09:02 PM (GMT)
yea its harder to roll at first, but its more solid. If the roll is more dense, there is less chance to fold it.
Joshua - March 18, 2007 12:42 AM (GMT)
Solid white parchment (sp?) paper would work wonders - if you guys are still brain storming.
Good job guys. Ice-H for the insert, and Zombo for getting the ball rolling!
