Well, I just uploaded the pic and already notice some problems...

I'll have to save it in another format because some of the colors got messed up. :(

In red above "suspend the income tax" it's supposed to say "stimulus?"


I also might remove "no more keynesian economics" because some ignorant people might think it's an attack calling Obama kenyan like in that one Reason video.. lol

Save as png instead of jpeg to reduce the blurring that made "stimulus?" hard to read. PNG is lossless and jpeg is lossy.

Thanks. I haven't used photoshop in awhile.

i love this!

I would say get rid of the "keynesyan" thing, the masses are too ignorant to know what you're talking about unfortunately, just leave it out, maybe say something about stopping corporatism? the masses are always against that. Or maybe "stop spending money we don't have"

God job by the way, it looks great!

Ron Paul 2012 a little bigger, agree w/ changing the Keynesian... maybe on the podium instead of end the Fed have Fed inside this.

i would keep all this sentences as "stop X"

so the last one: "stop infringing on my liberties; protect them!"

"stop taxing us so much"
"stop giving my money to corporations"

[teacherone]

i would keep all the "stop sentences down the middle" remove all other text (except for a larger ron paul 2012 logo ... use the official?) it's too distracting.

[teacherone]

this has the potential to go viral my friend. great idea.

[Sola_Fide]

I like it. Make the text pop out a little more.

[Yieu]

I think it might look better without writing on the podium.

How about half of them stop, the other half start? Democrats were criticizing the Republicans because they just said no to all the healthcare arguments but didn't provide any solutions (I know that wasn't true, just their argument).

Start bringing the troops home
Start closing our foreign bases
Start returning to a sound monetary system
Start returning personal liberty and freedoms to Americans

etc.

[teacherone]

oh... and get rid of the fox logos ;)

Maybe bevel/emboss the talking points - something to offset them from the background. Or maybe soft white outer glow on the words, or lower the opacity behind the words...the background is obscuring them a bit...

The $100 billion budget non-proposal was an event, not an issue, and a pretty minor one. There's a decent chance the masses won't remember it in a month.

[mczerone]

"Obama's" lopsided, mismatched, wrongly sized head really throws me off. I can't even get my eyes to read the text; I just can't stop looking at the MSPaint-level insertion.

And critique #2: we need to focus on the primary, not the fight against Obama. The focus should be on: helping small businesses, responsible spending cuts, and how many terms Ron has served in the Congress as a Republican. Find what the likely GOP primary voters care about, and convince them Ron's way is the best way to get it.

I suggest making that center panel a solid color, so that the text is more readable.

[MelissaWV]

It's a bit busy, but something that could evolve.

I *personally* don't go for this thing, because it makes Dr. Paul look like he's a scolding old man wagging his finger at Obama. It almost makes him seem like a nag. This is a great place to post this, because you have only to look up at LibertyEagle's avatar to see how much better Ron REALLY handles stupidity ;)

Also, Huckabee's hand isn't dark enough.
