ESPN Gameday Signs Compiled
TwistNHook: Thought I would front page this since the event is tomorrow. If anybody is going, please comment inside to help coordinate with the others.
I've pulled all the things that I saw getting multiple recs or that had a consensus to be included as comments here. If I missed anything, feel free to add it.
If you are going and want a sign, post a comment and if you want to call 'dibs' of some sort on a sign go ahead and make it clear. See the other post for instructions from God (danzig) on how to make a poster out of these on the cheap.
I just pulled the pictures that people wanted,the text ideas that people mentioned that are listed below:
"PUNTING IS WINNING"
NEUHEISAL PROMISED ME I’D BE THE PAC10 LEADING RECEIVER!
GANDHI WAS A CAL FAN…AND STILL GOT BANNED BY BRUINSNATION
UCLA's Going Down Like Lehman
UCLA USES BAILOUT MONEY ON REFS
REHIRE KARL DORRELL'S MUSTACHE
Every
Sports
Person thinks
Neuheisal is a douchebag.
The opinions expressed in a FanPost are, in every way, reflective of the opinions of every California Golden Blogs Marshawnthusiast. Moreover, they are reflective of every employee of SBNation, including Tyler "Blez" Bleszinski.

I don’t mean to naysay (also since it was my idea), but it is going to be nigh impossible to see Neu, and DEFINITELY impossible to see the cutout of the Monopoly board. I would just stick with giant text…

Its a lot tougher to see Neu and the cutout if they arent there.

You said tha it would be tough to see them and that they should be removed. But itd be tougher to see them if they are removed. Makes sense to me.

Yes, we would not see the pic of Neuheisel or the monopoly cutout, but we would still get the text, which is the important part. That way it’s
“TEXT TEXT TEXT!!!!”
and not
“text text text someguy is he pointing or something and a little incomprehensible graphic notfunny”

I guess I dont fully understand why adding the pictures makes it impossible to see the text?

The text is vector. I can make a 10’ poster if needed.
It's spelled "S-H-U-G-S-A-R-E-F-O-R-T-H-U-G-S""
I win again.
Rishi and Spazzy, JShufelt can assure you that I am gracious to my vanquished. I will not make you work in CGB’s underground salt mines. Remember my grace in the future.

Because you can use the posterboard space you would have wasted on pictures/graphics on making the letters big enough to read. Look at MOST of the good example signs from the gameday broadcasts. Do any of them have weirdo graphics and pictures?

Question
How big do you guys think this needs to be? At the moment I did 4 11×17’s so 22 × 34, but if you guys have so much hope for this one do you think I need to go with a bigger poster?
JShufelt-
Do you have a high-res of this one? It prints out fine ok, but if I have a higher res I can print it even more better.
I’m pretty sure photobucket has a limit. I just tested it. :-)
I’ll have to email the larger version, or find some easy file sharing site. (Any one know if a good free one?)
I had a hard time finding a good quality picture of Baltic and Mediterranean, so those are going to look poopy regardless.
It's spelled "S-H-U-G-S-A-R-E-F-O-R-T-H-U-G-S""
Firstly, you could always create a new photobucket name?
Secondly, what was the one danzig had in the other fanpost? imagehosting.net?

Much better than the low res one, and the overlap in picasa makes this a snap. Gotta love computers.

C+P from Danzig
Download Picassa3
http://picasa.google.com/View the picture then go to the menu… CREATE>>MAKE POSTER… then use these settings:
Picassa will break the enlarged picture up into sections that you can then print individually (select them all then choose print to print all at once).
Play around with the scale (since I don’t know how big the original is)… 800% should get you a HUGE poster… since it will cost you pennies to print it out… test out a few sizes…. or if you’re smart, measure the dimensions then use proportion math (you’re all a bunch of retards).

The idea for this one was:
On one side, "What’s a Bruin anyway?"
On the other "A Small Dickless Bear!"

yepyep. I'm a fan of that one...
someone make it!!
I haven't seen that many tear-stained dollar bills since my dad hired a stripper for my uncle's funeral.
I'm 100% not going, so whoever wants to use mine, go for it.
I'm Fijian. Yes, the water is like that.
Also, for anyone making a sign about Slick Rick
It’s spelled Neuheisel. Neu would be best, I think.

Yes please spell Neuheisel right. We don’t want Cal fans to look like this:

HONORABLE MENTION
I still think some of these could be used:
“EVEN I COULD SPELL DREW CORRECTLY”
“What would Dumpster Muffin Do”
“UCLA – Getting Doctors Paid Since 2005”
“NICE FIGHT SONG”
“DID PAPA SAM GILBERT PAY FOR THAT?”
“Cash4organs.EDU”
“REHIRE KARL DORRELL’S MUSTACHE”
“HEY COACH NEU WANNA ENTER MY MARCH MADNESS POOL?”
Tickets to the Game: $50
Twelve-pack of Beer: $15
Giant Foam Finger: $8
Watching Darren Collison Go Down More Than A Freshman Sorority Pledge: Priceless
"Tedford is God"
“Hey Monty, May the Nyan be with you”
“JOSH SHIPP DRINKS ZIMA”
Also, we need at least one person with a DVR or TiVo to record the show and then snag screenshots if a sign of ours pops up.

www.CaliforniaGoldenBlogs.com
I’ll email PRD74…. I’m sure he’ll record it but just to confirm. Afterward if we get a good showing, then we can do a slideshow vid or a highlights vid.
Another elements sign suggestion
I won’t be able to make it to the game, so if someone wants it, feel free to use it.
bErkelium
Seaborgium
Plutonium
califorNium
or, for one that uses elements that all start with the ESPN letters (but doesn’t include berkelium or californium):
Einsteinium
Seaborgium
Plutonium
Nobelium

I’ll do this on the back of my other – probably the first as you just gotta have californium and berkelium.

Close enough
Actually, they have one in the medical school, Louis Ignarro. According to Wikipedia, his nobel prize winning contribution was a breakthrough that led to Viagra!
Cal’s got seven nobel laureates currently on faculty.
I say that’s close enough. Plus, our seven guys could easily beat up their Viagra guy.

What time do you think I should be in front of Haas at?
5? 5:30? 6?
I’m assuming there’ll be a line..
In other words, Go Bears!
I’m going to get there around 5:30-5:45. Ugh, I haven’t been up that early in almost a year.

Meeting up and establishing a big group
Mentioned it before, but I’ll bring it up here again – should we merge groups together to increase our group noise quotient and increase our chances of being on tv?

How about we meet there closer to 5:30 or 5:45 so we can be at the doors when they open?

I’ll show up around 5:45 then.

Finish making signs at 5 am
Eat power breakfast at 5:15 am
Walk to Gameday for AWESOMENESS
I declare you Sanchez.
Request
Can someone please enlarge the “Sanchez” sign so I can print it out at work and paste it on signboards tonight?
I can’t get Picasa at work. Maybe if someone can enlarge it and save the enlarged file as a jpeg or a word document, that’d be awesome.
Thanks.
I declare you Sanchez.
I know nothing about signboards. You’ve had Gameday twice in the last year… how big are signs on stakes normally?
I declare you Sanchez.
Send me an email (It’s under my profile), and I can send you the files.

I just realized the one I made for you is 6.5 feet tall.
That might be a bit much, unless you really want to declare the entire world Sanchez.
It's spelled "S-H-U-G-S-A-R-E-F-O-R-T-H-U-G-S""
Well, whatever size you recommend, then I’ll go out and purchase it.
A 6.5-foot-tall one might be a little difficult, though, seeing as how that’s slightly taller than I am.
I declare you Sanchez.
The bigger it is the more likely itll be seen on TV, tho.

Is 22" x 28" too small?

( I think you meant you emailed Rishi). I printed out what would have fit on a 22"x28" and it seems to small. I’ll combine boards for a 44"x28" poster. That looks like it will be more legible on tv.

RASTERBATION
the delightful word for splitting up an image and putting each piece on separate pages for large posting
if you don’t like/can’t use picasa just use this website:
http://homokaasu.org/rasterbator/
it’ll spit out a pdf file with each part of the picture on different pages
very self-explanatory
size it as such, and be aware of how many sheets are required (LOL RESCOMP)

Wow… the online app works great!! Estimating the final size is much easier on this than Picassa. Great tool.
Agreed. The one problem, at least with the posters I have, is that it doesn’t translate smaller fonts very well.
I was going to do this, but even with 1 mm dots (downloaded version), it wasn’t very clear unless it was going to get printed out to be 8’ tall.

But if at 545 AM there is a huge throng of people all caring this poster, determine who is who by asking only a question that a reader of this website would know. Such as:
