What's this?

It's my film ribbon to show I use film.

I created this after seeing a comment on Mike Johnston's site. It pointed to a Web site of a dealer who had included the words 'Film is not dead' in small print at the bottom of page. Agreeing with the sentiment, I thought using a ribbon might be a bit more eye catching and thought provoking.

Mike liked the idea and featured my comment on his site. You can see it here. And the original comment that gave me the idea can be seen here.

As a consequence of Mike featuring this, around 1400 people downloaded a copy of this image in just the first week - hopefully to add to their own sites. The idea has also been discussed in a number of discussion groups. So, if nothing else, it's at least raised the profile of film a little.

If you want to show your support for film, feel free to take a copy of the images here and pin one to your Web site, Blog etc. or even get it printed on a T-shirt like Pawel here.
