« The RWR Currency Conspiracy - Update No. 4 | Main | BNN's Cornpone Bureau Debuts »
All on his own, and without much prompting from anyone else, Co-Conspirator dave has created a rather nice prototype of the Reagan $20 bill I've been instigating.
See how nice it looks?
dave also posted a couple of irreverant versions over on one of his sites which I'm sure will be co-opted by our opponents with the Forces of Dorkniss.
I can't wait to see how it looks printed out.

» Updates and Udder Bidness from Cornpone
Couple of updates on some goings on with my fellow blogger-buddies who have started projects: Schmed is still pushing the "Reagan $20" and Dave even came up with a pretty good design after a couple of botched attempts. Check it. [Read More]

Looks pretty lame to me. Reagan's head is too big, which makes him look like Bill Clinton.

The head is smaller than Jackson's on the latest version of the twenty, but I prefer the older style bills with the smaller portraits as well.

Didn't mean ta diss yer tawunty. It's a heluvalot bettern I'da did.

Looks great! I'm all for it!

One more thought...what's on the back?
Posted by: Kevin | Sunday, June 27, 2004 at 07:28 PM
why, the FrostTop mug, of course.
Posted by: dave | Sunday, June 27, 2004 at 08:48 PM
While the scale of his head isn't proportioned properly in this sample, it does give a feel of what he would look like on the twenty, and by gosh I like it.

Kevin - I don't see any compelling reason to take the White House off the reverse, but we could advocate a second portrait of RWR - probably wearing his white hat on horseback - that we could give back at the barganing table.
Bruce - if you think that's big, wait till you see that fathead Grant on the redesigned 50.

Corey- I'd direct you to the current $20 bill, where Jackson's head is even bigger than Reagan's is here.
Posted by: dave | Monday, June 28, 2004 at 08:40 AM
You know, Dave, I'm going to have to haul off and stand corrected. I haven't seen a twenty in a good while, being fresh out of college, jobless, and such. But I happen to remember I had one lying around, and Jackson's head is huge. I think if you brought it down a few pixels, it would go perfectly. But then, I'm just a silly man without any coffee.
Posted by: Corey | Monday, June 28, 2004 at 11:42 AM
I think it looks great!!!
Posted by: TigerGrrL | Monday, June 28, 2004 at 03:17 PM
It's very well done. The only problem I see with it is the greenish fuzzy cast that makes Reagan look a bit radioactive. But the composition is perfect.

Where am I? I think I've pooped myself. Nancy?!
