we should figure out what to give jabba for christmas since he gave us this o holy place like maybe do a donation thing? or somthing else?

Yeah, good idea, but the problem is, he can read this so it kinda spoils the surprise ...

But if someone can buy a nice gift & deliver it to jabba, you can count me in. And with the amount of people on the site (off course only a small % is going to contribute) we should be able to get him something nice...

My suggestion, everyone who wants in contacts TT on this matter (that is off course if TT is ok with it...) via email or so ... and then we can make suggestions ...

12-13-2003, 12:11 PM
Yeah! The fact that he can read may spoil something! However, being in the UK I am willing to buy and deliver.

Will be away from the 21st-28th, so may be a 'new-year' prezzie!

how bout a model kit car. where he has to build a ferrari! :D

OK. Sure! Count me in!

jon_s
12-13-2003, 06:01 PM
I was thinking of a model of a ferrari engine, but they are hard to find.

jon_s
12-13-2003, 06:31 PM
Right, how about this, might be a bit complex, but hey!

Find a print of a Diablo/Ferrari e.t.c, a nice one! Then (this is where it gets complex!):

Get a definate list of who is going to be involved, then (concentrate lol), the person who bought signs it, and then sends it to another person in the list. Obviously we would sort this list out, as there is no point it going UK->US->UK->Australia->US->UKe.t.c but I think it would be worth the effort. Then there would be a personal touch from everyone who wanted to be involved.

I doubt it would cost too much individually to send a poster around the world. I think it would mean more if it had gone around the world for everyone to contribute!

What do you think?? Obviously only people who really know they will do this should apply, as it would be a shame to lose the poster half way!

gis
12-13-2003, 06:34 PM
yeah man,thats a dam good idea id be up for that for sure

i think jabba would love that and with everyone signing it,that be cool and thats probably what he will love about it

jon_s
12-13-2003, 06:40 PM
That is what I was thinking, I was going through the whole "what do you get the man who has everything" phase! lol The fact that this is personal from everyone makes it something that money can't buy!

To get a rough idea of where it would be going: (obviously, carry on with any other ideas!)

UK (lol)
USA
Canada
Turkey
Belgium
Hell (lol)

I am sure a couple of the Australian's will be up for this too.

TT
12-13-2003, 06:44 PM
Here is TT too finally :)

the basic idea is very nice and this last suggestion maybe perfect... BUT,, the main problem, if we try to forget the messed up payment options we have, since not all of us have paypal or similar ;)... ok, the problem is the time needed for such thing... just to send something from uk to switzerland for instance is 5 days, and consider around 10 from europe to us... well, Christmas is so close LOL!

jon_s
12-13-2003, 06:54 PM
It might have to be a belated present! :? Did not think it took 5 days to get to Europe! :shock:

I was thinking that we could all pay our own postage, I know this would be different for people sending across to the US for example, but if we established people who would be willing to pay that little bit extra, we may be able to sort out a chain.

There are logistic issues to sort out, but I love a challenge! :P

gis
12-13-2003, 07:09 PM
LOL,a challenge we shall have jon and it will definately be later than xmas and probably into january 2004.but yeah jon,it does take about 5 days from here to around europe,the shortest time i seen is 4-5 days and that was me sendin sumthin to TT.so here to the US will be longer.but i think its still a good idea and would be up for it.i take it that it will start here in the UK?

TT
12-13-2003, 07:15 PM
But what about the poster? Who will pay for it?

Here is another problem: I'm used to send items to US (and receive them).. a lot of them and I receive and send packaes every week.. and the fact is: you really have to use a wonder-packaging to make it safe... and to send the same poster over and over again, we will need an iron one because after two travels, a normal packaging would be killed...

I know I wasn't supposed to read this thread but I am so pleased that I did now.

I am truly touched by everyone's kindness and being so incredibly thoughtful.

That is a great idea about signing a poster and you're both right I would absolutely love that.... I wonder as well as sending the original around the world to be signed... if it could also be scanned in....then e-mailed to the first person who could then print it out and add their signature then re-scan it back in and send it onto the next person.

Obviously the quality could suffer depending on the quality of the scanning but it might still be a lot of fun to do.

Thanks again and especially to Anile8er for starting the ball rolling.

If we do this by air, then shipping costs is going to be expensive. its like 50 euros to get the thing here. and probably double that for us to send it back.

12-13-2003, 07:27 PM
LOL,your not goin to see this present now jabba coz Anile8er said he will kill you if you enter,lol

I found a nice idea.. I though its cool..
Everybody (whose in that action) will send their special things.. Like scanin signature or writin names with usin paint.. I mean like usin all the technology every person will send their unique things.. Than we can combine these like a puzzle and write JABBA`S WORLD..
I think this will be the most meaninful present to Jabba..

12-13-2003, 09:15 PM
i'm down for whatever, i was planning on making a simple donation but i think a combined effort would be better. i just think there's more ideas than plans right now and we need to work out something QUICK cuz christmas is practically tomorrow.

honestly, i think the poster thing is thoughtful, but it's a HORRIBLE idea. the thought counts, yes, but if we were to do it like that it wouldn't get back to jabba til AT LEAST late january i guarantee. if we ARE going to send a poster, i suggest whoever buys it laminates it, and on a seperate thing of construction paper have a title on the top that says something like "JW OWNZ ALL" or something to that extent, and everyone sign on that (and also send a small fee to reimburse the purchaser for the poster), then send it back around to TT (i officially appoint him in charge :wink: ) and he'll attach the signed board to the bottom of the laminated poster via metal links or something like that.

but frankly, with all the people willing to chip in for this, i think we can do a whole lot better than just a poster. it's from each of us yes but we need something that really gets a "WHOA LIKE, THANKS DUDE!!!" message across. something auto related of course that will last a while and be enjoyable. if we're going to do this in time, we have to communicate through mass emails (for secrecy reasons of course), figure out how much cash to send and who to send it to to pay for the gift we all decide. i think it should be TT since, you know.

so yeah, that's what i think

Jabba
12-13-2003, 09:37 PM
How about the email one for Christmas and the original one for my Birthday (March 18th) ???

12-13-2003, 09:39 PM

I'd just like to comment the idea about sending money to me and me buying the present...
Of course I'm happy to see ppl trust me :D but I'm not sure I really want to take the responsability... I really can't see what can go wrong, but if something will, I'd feel like shit...

As for what Jabba said about the tube with all the stamps, well LOL, when it will arrive here I'll have to remove them all anyway since Swiss post don't accept to send a package if there is even a single foreign stamp on it :D

To get a rough idea of where it would be going: (obviously, carry on with any other ideas!)

UK (lol)

I am sure a couple of the Australian's will be up for this too.

12-14-2003, 06:16 PM

Anile8er
12-14-2003, 07:17 PM
im thinking jabba could open up a po box or give us another address (not his home) and we can all send a unique (are own style) buisness card size well card :D with i signature on the bak and like are nick on the front. then jabba can just put them all together and frame them :mrgreen: hows that sound?

Anile8er
12-14-2003, 07:18 PM

This is a great idea...count me in...

The poster thing is a good idea, but I don't think it would work...there are too many places it would have to go...it would probably get lost in the way...

I kinda like Anile8er's idea. As much as I like the poster idea, and think it would be neat and cool, I don't think we'd get that done until /next/ Christmas, to be perfectly frank. And that's if the postal services of the world don't find neat and ingenious ways to fark up the process in a craptacular manner of doing... :(

Perhaps we can have one gatherer for each general region of the world, then compile from there?

This thread seemed to have died a bit because no body offered to buy something and let us pay the money via a money doposit on their bank accout... that's the thing I was thinking about because it's the only one that seems do-able IMO.

The poster thing is very cool, but it's very hard to do that, because it will take a couple of months AND it could be someone forgets about it, and leaves it at their home for a week or so...

but is anyone (from the UK for instance) willing to let us do a deposit of a fix amount so he can then go and buy something for jabba, and deliver it...

TT
12-16-2003, 01:36 PM
Paypal would be perfect too, even better and less "dangerous" than giving away bank account infos.. but I wonder if all of us have an account...

12-16-2003, 02:12 PM
I'm very sorry but I don't have paypal... but I would really like to do a little think in return... if it is possible! I'm just a student so I'm not going to buy & send something on my own, I don't have that much money to buy him something decent by myself. But is it really dangerous to give your bank number? I thought people could only deposit on it without the bank card & code.

TT
12-16-2003, 02:19 PM
Sure zippo, it's not really dangerous IMO, but many ppl fear it is.. I also know many ppl that never used their credit card online, while I use it on a daily basis and never had a problem ;)

Hi guys! Been away for a while, but at least I'm back before I was too late to be in on this. I think it's a great idea to send a present to Jabba. The poster to be signed by everyone and sent around the world sounds great. The thing is that it's kind of risky. Postal services fuck up all the time or damage goods. It would be such a shame if the poster would have travelled half the globe and then got lost. If we're going ahead with this I'm game, though.

The signing-scanning-emailing thing is rather unpersonal. I have to agree with brembo on that. Still, it's better than nothing.

Isn't there something in between those two methods? Is there a way of applying handwritten messages, sent by mail, onto a poster? I'm thinking that might make it possible for the poster to hold handwritten stuff (making it personal) without running the risk of everyone's efforts going down the drain when something happens to the poster. If anything goes wrong when sending an autograph only one and not the whole thing will be affected.

Two more things: I personally don't mind if it doesn't get there by christmas (time is too limited and it's the thought that counts) and I don't have a credit card or Paypal.

So, does anyone know of a way to apply handwritten things on a poster?

this kind of reminds me of my graduation party idea. i had this idea that instead of me and my friends throwing our own individual parties, me and six of my closest would throw one MASSIVE party, it was surely a grand idea, but the idea only came a few weeks before graduation.

so yeah. this idea was great (and the thought counts, surely) but frankly there isn't enough time. for now i say we just send our best wishes and holiday cards to the SELF PROCLAIMED NON FAT jabba and plan something monster (hehe no pun intended) for either his birthday or the jabbasworld birthday (that's my idea that i just came up with yeehaw).

BUT if somebody can come up with a grand scale idea that can be executed by the middle of next week then count me in.

Ok, here are our possibilities how I see it:

1. Everyone who wants to contribute pays via bankaccount OR paypal to one person (TT or a well known UK member of JW) and he buys something for Jabba and delivers it via mail or personally...

2. The poster thing:
- First option: mail it around and get everyone to sign it. IMO: not possible
- Second option: everyone signs it electronically and we send it through via mail. IMO: not personal
- BUT we could also send a little note to one person (lets say everyone uses a white 15 by 15 cm paper) with his best wishes to jabba. That one person can then glue them on a poster for instance and mail the poster to jabba... I think this is the only possible way to execute the poster idea...

3. We send a greeting card to one person who then delivers them to jabba (since he prefers to keep his adress a secret - wich I understand)

Plz people, I hope we can come to a conclusion on this asap... don't want to push people, I just hope we can get this organized and time is kinda running out!!!

greetingz

This idea was misunderstood I think.

I meant for people to sign it by HAND then scan it in then send it onto the next person to do the same.

Yes I understand that not everyone has a scanner and the quality will not be perfect but I doubt you will find any idea that is 100% perfect.

Dang, I'd really like to be able to focus 100% on the choice, but with all the activity here andsome more luttle problems in real life I'm quite distracted..

As I already said, I'd like to be the "bank", but first, I use Paypal with my girl so it would be ok to send money for me, but little bit messy to receive it...
and since my life outside the web is a little bit "confused" lately, I'm not sure I can assume the responsability to collect the money in different ways (since there will be ppl sending via Paypal, others via Money orders, others via credit card or even cash...)..
Don't misunderstand me, I'm flattered and I want to help as I always do, but I fear I could mess up or delay things and I don't want that to happen of course..

That said, if there is really no other option, of course you can count on your friendly neighbour TT :D
and to buy a present somebody in UK would also be better maybe...

heres a thought, seeing as jabba already knows what is happening maybe he could get a photo of his lambo and ferrari together, get it made up as a poster then send that.
regardless the biggest problem is how is it to be paid for
i dont have a credit card (dont like them much) and my scanner dosent want to co-operate with the computer lately :roll:

My suggestion: lets try doing the thing with the poster first and if we can arrange it to buy something... that would be nice but lets start with the poster-thing.

HOW:
1. We have to find someone who can work with photoshop or paintshop.
2. Everyone (who can & wants to) writes his nick and/or name on a WHITE piece of paper and scans it. You then mail it to the photoshop/paintshop dude.
3. The photoshop/paintshop dude then makes the white background transparent and puts it on a high quality picture (car - babe) - preferably with a lighter picture so the text is readable.
4. The photoshop/paintshop dude mails is to jabba.

ps: I may forget something - correct me if I'm wrong or if you disagree

TT
12-17-2003, 11:23 AM
Of course the for the "photoshop dude" role I see very well DeMoN if he has time :D

And yes, this seems the easiest idea so far.. pretty simple to realize I think... of course I have a scanner.. it won't appear that easy to ppl not having one :)

stradale
12-17-2003, 11:30 AM
I haven't got a scanner myself, but I think it would be possible for me through someone else.

So the big question is now: where's our Photoshop expert?

12-17-2003, 11:36 AM
I have mailed & PM Demon so lets wait but a backup photoshop dude is allways welcome of course...

I could try it since I'm fairly handy with pc stuff but I've never used photoshop so...

Jabba
12-17-2003, 11:36 AM
Demon has returned home for a few months and has very limited internet access so I doubt that he can help us :cry:

Great to see we're finally getting somewhere. I didn't want to interfere before because that would only complicate matters. These are a few things I'd like to say:

1. I don't have photoshop, nor do I own a scanner. But I think it would be possible also to draw a signature on a white background in Paint or a similar program.

2. I don't know how many people will go along with this initiative but if we want to put let's say thirty signatures (possibly a few words) on one picture, it's got to be a very high res. one. I wouldn't know where to get it. Perhaps a self shot photo will do. Possibly one or a collage of TT's pictures of the day (I always like those)?

If we find a graphic wizard and a picture/poster we're set to go.

12-18-2003, 01:57 AM
Good idea. I'm game. We should pick out a really nice poster too, though. And a really strong container to ship it in. Un-problamento though....I think it might be a late x-mas present, because moving things around takes a while.

One of my housemates (who happens to be skiing now, so don't tell him) has a scanner, so I'm ready to go. Just need to know to which Photoshopper.

BTW, a collage might be a good idea. You know, everyone sends a picture of a car or a babe along with the scanned autograph.

Ok, here's how it is. I'm sorry that I couldn't have arranged this earlier but I have been away a lot and DEMON wasn't around much BUT he can help us with this he says. This is how:

1. Everyone who wants to participate and put his name and/or nick on a white (no lines in the background plz) piece of paper and scans it. Plz keep the file size small (max 80kb lets say).

2. mail it to mailto:[email protected]

Remark: we still need a nice high res picture (preferably not to dark) to put the signatures on. If you have a good one, plz mail it to demon, but don't send 20 or so... his mailbox has it's limits.

hope you folks participate

thought that to: the biggest one is about 4200x4200. The second biggest 2400x2400.

But of course a big picture of the 355 or the lambo... would be great naturally... Or maybe a sexy chick... Like this one for instance: http://users.pandora.be/csl/PinkChicks.jpg

If it's only that little number of sigs, the picture doesn't have to be that big. Considering the amout of pages this thread counts I'm surprised that you got only 4 sigs. Are you sure you checked all your mails and PMs, demon? Perhaps you should mention the names so that everyone who sent one can be sure that his sig got to you.

Aha cool. But I think the best is that we pospone this till newyear since there aren't many responses yet. I think I'll copy paste my description of what to do into a new thread with a title like: "How to participate in jabbas present" ... I could go and PM 50 people or so but I think a new thread will give us more autographs... I hope

thanx to zippo for reminding me to come here

i just went throuh every page of this tread
and think this signature thing is a great idea
but the problem is,, i dun owned a scanner

but i just got a digi cam,, maybe i can write signature etc on a piece of whtie paper, and then take a pic of it, and sent it to demon
i suppose that would work 2
