 Bleeping Computer is happy to announce the availability of a custom made bumper sticker (BS) to show off the BC. One BS is free to any member sending a #10 self addressed and stamped envelope (SASE) to the address noted below. We're sorry, but only one BS is available per member at this time. (A #10 envelope is 4 inches deep by 9 1/2 inches wide. Please remember the USPS First Class postal increase to $.41 on 14 May.) These BS are a vinyl product (no paper) 3 3/4" deep and 7 1/2" wide. They are easily removable, repositionable, and leave no adhesive residues. Send your SASE to: BC Bumper Sticker Bleeping Computer LLC PO BOX 20293 New York, NY 10021-0064 Quantities are limited.

A note to members looking at the BS above.
Please don't try to peal that BS off of your screen. You'll just mess up/damage your screen! -------------------- |

Perhaps it would be an idea to also set 1 distribution point in Europe, since a large amount of the membership originates from there. I would be happy to function as a distribution point.

Would that really help that much with distribution? I honestly do not know much about sending from one country to another country when overseas. Is it any different than sending from the US to that country?

It is much more a cost - and time thing than anything else. I can send an enveloppe to any country in Europe for
around EUR. 0.72 ( USD.091) per envelope. I have no clou what it costs to send it direct from US to Europe. I imagine that intercontinental postal fees would be a lot higher. Certainly if you would send let say 100 pieces in 1 go depending on interest from the European members. -------------------- Free antivirus : AVG Free Free Anti-spyware AVG Anti Spyware Free Firewall :Zone Alarm Ccleaner Ad aware & Manual SpybotS&D&Manual Free Handy programs |

I can see Fozzie's point here.
I would love to have one but I don't know how the USPS would view an envelope with a local stamp?? (How about I VISA a donation, and you send me a sticker? Win/Win)  Great idea though. Congrats to the designer. This post has been edited by rowal5555: May 29 2007, 03:20 PM -------------------- |

Here is a link to the USPS postage calculator. http://postcalc.usps.gov/
For destination use the pulldown for your particular country to find out what the US postal rate is. As for purchasing a USPS stamp to put on the return envelope? I don't have a clue. -------------------- The Internet is so big, so powerful and pointless that for some people it is a complete substitute for life.

Thanks for that Animal.
Checked up with local NZ Post. Local stamps can not be used, but I can send a $NZ3 reply coupon which can be used to purchase a stamp in the currency required. FWIW -------------------- |

I'll be sending one soon, so I can put it on my car when I get my license this summer.

Personally, I would like to see a slogan that sort of throws it in the face of people that develop spyware/adware....I don't know how many of them are driving around, but I would love it to be along the lines of destroying everything they create.
Good job on getting one at all though.
