David Kirk Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 Hey, Look at me! I got a couple of pages in the current issue of Time Magazine (with the yoga lady on the cover.) Pages 131 and 132 I think. It came out Monday or Tuesday, so you'll have to look fast, or wait and catch it at the doctors office. It has a nice picture of a robot I made twenty years ago, of my tree house, and a bunch of stuff I designed for Target stores, which you should all go out and buy for your little children or nieces and nephews, or neighbors kids or their friends. It's really cheap, and if this stuff sells, I'll get to do robot products for them next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Palmer Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 david, how about scanning and posting up the two pages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robothut Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 Congrats David! I will have to locate the mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kirk Posted January 20, 2003 Author Share Posted January 20, 2003 I could certainly scan it in. Would it take up too much room though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zesko Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 I could certainly scan it in. Would it take up too much room though? For the pictures, just scan as you normally would, try to reduce the image size to around 4 or 5 inches width, then change the resolution to 72 dpi and save as JPEG. You can usually get the file down to under 100K this way, and they load just fine... Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillbilly Robot Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 Congratulations on your next adventure, David! I've been an avid collector of Nova robots and own two of your signed art works, "Message from Dad" and "Nova." I hope your new venture with Target leads to new robots!The Time magazine story can be read at the link below, but unfortunately the pictures aren't included: http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/...07364-1,00.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campy Craig Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 David, I taught preschool for three years and your books were among my kid's favorites (and we read A LOT of books). I read the article online, but I'm dying to see your treehouse! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Tesla Posted January 20, 2003 Share Posted January 20, 2003 Hi again and congrats, David. Hope I didn't spook you with the email reference to South Carolina VooDoo. You know, even when you mentioned your book tours, I didn't make the connection (sorry). My wife, however, knew your work immediately (she's a big Miss Spider fan). She also tells me she wants to spend next Halloween at YOUR house---which is okay with me, as long as you have her home by 11:00 pm. }=] ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
