You could just read the picture description and find that " 7'x17' screen at work". I do have to say, that is a pretty impressive display and I'd like to see someone top it.

Not sure what size the screen is though...

Height wise, it could be beaten on a lecture hall screen, however length would be a challenge.

First, I'd like to take a moment to say you're all crazy!

Second, if someone tops that and can prove it, I'm buying them a Krispy Kreme in Atlanta, if topped, IM/PM/Email me so I know to bring extra cash.

Sometimes you all scare me .

Re: pic: Going big on CD

What if we top it while we are in Atlanta? Or do we only get the Krispy Kremes if it is accomplished before we get to Atlanta? I need to know the exact requirements for this challenge! Once you throw down with Krispy Kremes, it is time to get serious!

Re: pic: Going big on CD

okay Matt you just made a bet with the wrong man, cause he will a) either get it put on all the big screens at atlanta, b) find some way to have it show up in the sky or laser etched into the moon, or mars, or somthing, or c) just get all the TV satellites, to show CD at the same time

Wait a sec.. I saw a projection of a map of earth on a big sphere somewhere.. hmm..
Can CD wrap around a sphere too??

Re: pic: Going big on CD

Ok, official challenge.

It must be topped by the end of finals in Atlanta. And you have to prove it to me, if you do it beforehand and send/post photo with an accurate reference in the photo, one KK of your choosing, if you do it at Atlanta you must find me and show me and you get two KKs. I'm fairly locateable.

Only one problem, can I get the KKs in the Dome? Being a student I have a very limited ability to go anyway besides event and hotel. If I can't get the donuts, I'll at least pay for them.

Re: pic: Going big on CD

What about .. getting CD on hundreds of monitors world-wide at nearly the exact same time? Done.

I like my KK warm. You should be able to find me.

Thanks.

muhahah.

Re: pic: Going big on CD

Man I hate loopholes.

Ok, so I owe Brandon a KK, I'm keeping the challenge up though since Brandon cheated

Who else is getting me a donut?

(Brandon, remind me at the webhug.)

Re: pic: Going big on CD

OK, so the way I see it, the real challenge is to beat Brandon's record.

I'm thinking that getting an image of CD up on the big screen while NASA TV is broadcasting the screen image would put CD on tens of thousands of screens world-wide at the same time. I wonder who could pull off something like that...

Brandon, don't go and devour all those Krispy Kremes just yet. I think some of them might be mine...

Re: pic: Going big on CD

Yeah. but who watches NASA channel...?
Besides NASA employees, and students at schools all over the nation, and places like Hamilton Sundstrand (BUZZ 175 Sponsor) where they have a feed streamed in to watch all day long..

I mean.. err... yes.. this is an excellent plan.

<Side note, I really am kind of serious.. Is there a way to see the average number of viewers of NASA channel over a years time?? Where does NASA Tv fall in the Nielsen Ratings system? Or does it even?>

Re: pic: Going big on CD

Traditionally, I'd imagine the numbers would be low compared to most channels--but that is pure speculation.

However, when you've got thousands of FIRSTers who wish they were in the ATL but aren't...I can imagine a spike.

Re: pic: Going big on CD

I want to CD on a screen that is big enough and has a good enough resolution so that the scroll bar on the right side disappears . Is this even possible? I take it that it is, but not very feasible. I will be VERY impressed when someone accomplishes this.
