Hypnobama ‘08 (Updated)
UPDATE: Hypnobama products are on sale now.
Lorelei asked me to make an Obama/Hypnotoad 2008 campaign bumper sticker. It seemed worth posting online:

Poor Hypnotoad. Always playing second fiddle.

What font is that? I’m surprised you were able to get it so easily!

Also, can you make me an actual sticker of that?

The font is called Perpetua, which I already had on my computer. I found that out at Typophile.
The resolution on the version I made might not be quite up to sticker snuff. If you find me a high quality version of the Obama circle thingy, I could put together a higher resolution copy that we could print out.
The hypnotoad is pretty much always going to be low-resolution as it’s descended from screenshots, but I can try to clean it up a little.
Find a high quality Obama O and I’ll see what I can do.

I can probably just do a screengrab of it.
I started working on a second version. I’ll post it tomorrow and set us up a CafePress store so you can get one printed.

Your turnaround time is amazing. Now I have a PR person AND a reliable promotional materials generator. We’ve got a fine little operation going here. How much do you think it will cost?

The source code on the flash hypnotoad is funny.

Funny haha. Go look at the HTML for the flash page, the humor will be immediately apparent, no special coding skills required.
