ANTICIPATION: FOSSIL FACTORY
ANTICIPATION: FOSSIL FACTORY
FOSSIL FACTORY PRINT AVAIL. 03/28!
The Fossil Factory image is an illustration I made based on a former factory in the 13th district of Paris which is now used for classrooms at a university. The architecture of the factory is fantastic and serves as a reminder of what monolithic and impressive things were built by, and in service of, fossil fuel powered industries. Those industries still have tremendous power economically, but we now know that not only are those fuel sources finite but that using them is terrible for climate change and therefore the eco-systems that sustain life on our planet. I’d like to see more fossil factories turned into schools while we subsidize research into renewable energy solutions rather than the current practice of subsidizing the fossil fuel industries for billions as they damage the environment. Please read Naomi Klein’s THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING to better understand the conflict between economic interests and climate change. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this print will go to 350.org to support their efforts to fight climate change. Thanks for caring. – Shepard

This is already shaping up to be the best year of Shep's output since the 2000's. Love it.

Paypal asking for phone number and picture matching killed me. I'm thinking I'll need to stop using PayPal here.

Yes, paypal is going to slow you down.bdavenport wrote:Paypal asking for phone number and picture matching killed me. I'm thinking I'll need to stop using PayPal here.
Credit card is the fastest way to checkout. Maybe I should disable paypal on release days?

guess a lot of people thought this one was going to flip ... eBay seems to have more than it's usual share

I got captcha's using my CC at check-out but still scored so I'm thinking CC is the way with the new POS.weston wrote:Yes, paypal is going to slow you down.bdavenport wrote:Paypal asking for phone number and picture matching killed me. I'm thinking I'll need to stop using PayPal here.

I didn't bother. Glad members scored.

Re: ANTICIPATION: FOSSIL FACTORY
definitely leave PayPal as an option... but implement google's new invisible captcha instead of the one you are using now.weston wrote:Yes, paypal is going to slow you down.bdavenport wrote:Paypal asking for phone number and picture matching killed me.

Yeah, Captcha is irritating. Finally with Invisible Captcha you can get something useful from all that Google surveillance.conartstudio wrote:definitely leave PayPal as an option... but implement google's new invisible captcha instead of the one you are using now.weston wrote:Yes, paypal is going to slow you down.bdavenport wrote:Paypal asking for phone number and picture matching killed me.

Endless captcha loop is very frustrating
