Our First Hi-Res Bus Mockup

Due to some excellent work by site visitorBase on Mars (the Photoshopping) and his friend Josh (the pic) we have our first high res mockup. Click here for the high res version! Please credit the two of them if you wish to use the picture. More on what we’d like people to submit here.

Bit Of Fun: Where Now?

I’ve been e-mailed these fab mockups by a visitor to the site, D. Mason. Click on either image above to see the full size image.

So, you ask, as we’ve exceeded our fundraising target, where else will the banners appear? The first stage will be to investigate more ads, for longer, on more buses, in more cities (across the UK and maybe beyond) but frankly all of this needs to be decided among the organisers, and we haven’t had a moment to even meet yet… So please bear with us! In the meantime enjoy the designs, and also a new bus mockup sent to us by R. Longuir.

[UPDATE]
I’ve also been sent this excellent bus shelter image (to the right here)  by T. Kaye, released under a Creative Commons License. Click the small image to see the full size one.

Wanted: Bus Pictures & Mockups

We need to make some higher resolution Photoshop mockups of buses with the ads displayed on them as the images on our press page are not so wonderful at the moment. So can you help us? Here’s how!

(1) Get hold of a decent digital camera, ideally a digital SLR.
(2) Go out on the street and take pictures of some buses*, ideally red bendy buses but others are also fine.
(3) E-mail these pictures to us at photos {at} atheistcampaign(.)org and, if you wish, upload them to Peter Theakston’s Flickr group.

If you’re feeling even keener, then make a mockup of the bus with the banner…
(1) Download this image of the ad banner that will appear on the buses, and use Photoshop or an equivalent (GIMP is free and will do the job) to mockup the bus, putting the ad on the side. You should ideally also blank out the logos of the bus company on the bus.
(2) E-mail the mockup as a JPG or PSD file to photos {at} atheistcampaign(.)org

Please only use our banner in your mockups – this is the design and slogan that was used for the donation page and it cannot be changed now. We’ll credit you if you provide us with good pictures, but as we’re all volunteers in this we can’t pay you for your work.

* – if people think you’re a bus-spotter when you’re taking your photos be ready to tell them you’re doing the work for an atheist campaign!

[UPDATE]
The first new mockup submitted is now shown above, thanks the excellent work of R. Longmuir. Click here to view the high resolution version.
