P_Mom Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Harmony...thank you. Just do your best.........I appreciate it. I'll try to contact Dr. C today. I'd say 6-12 months....and, yes, we are ready to go. As for image????? Maybe we could design one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 That's actually a really good point! Hmmm...looks like it's a brainstorming afternoon. Wonder how many people won't even click because they will think it's research for the bear.... good grief Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 When's the cut off for submitting something for March? If we don't have time to create our own pictue, what do you think about the pic on the PANDAS Network website? It's simple, but it's at least a picture and it ties things together. Otherwise, what do you guys think should be incorporated into a logo/pic? Also, where ever we decide to refer to PANDAS in the title, type it out P.A.N.D.A.S.

P_Mom Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Yeah...not sure the pic of the bear is good...........need something more relevant and catching.....just in my opinion. What about a photo.........of a child with his head down (to remain annonymous...maybe even a hat of some sort for same reasons)....with hands over ears (shutting the world out)..... camera angled just to the point so you can see the eyes are clinched shut??? Wonder if my son would be willing.....he is pretty standard looking...... Of course with the acronym P.A.N.D.A.S., and then what is stands for underneath.. Thoughts? I could try to take a shot and then post it as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Try to see if he'll let you do the photo.. I think it's hard to sum it up in a "clip art" picture. I think a photo of a child looking the way you described, would draw the attention of people who are just skimming through the options to vote on. p.s. I'm not crazy about the bear idea either. I was just trying to think of a stock photo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Mom Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 For those interested....I got a rough idea with a snapshot of my older son. This is just an idea/rough "draft." I would tweek it.....use a different color hat (or do you think the orange is eye catching)......make sure the pic is clearer and have his face lifted just a bit more. And of course the header.. P.A.N.D.A.S. Pediatric Autoimmune Neuro....etc. I didn't know how else to capture PANDAS in a snapshot....like, how do you capture ocd, tics, anxiety, etc. But, this captures how a child feels....like he may be going crazy....and, with all the intrusive thoughts/ocd thoughts and all.....I thought this may work. Any others ideas are welcome! Please pm me your e-mail if you would like me to send it to you....I don't know how else to get it to you guys. Maybe we could make a Facebook Page......Pepsi Refresh Project P.A.N.D.A.S.? Get the word out and get fans...etc???? Maybe we can actually do this???

thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I can't find it. Is it a group, fan page, or cause? Can you post a link to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Found it... http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Pepsi...82.309749594..1 Good job on the photo but I think it's needs a little tweeking. It's gonna be hard to do it w/ keeping the child's privacy. Let me think on it and I'll come back w/ some suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Mom Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 yes...does need tweeking...I agree. I just wanted something up there in the meantime. Bring on the suggestions/fans/support!!! (My husband didn't even know that it was our son! lol) A bit more of the clinched face....what about the hat color? Or, something else all together??

thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I quickly threw together an idea but I can't figure out how to post it on here! It's not a photo so we could change anything on it. I do have it saved as a jpeg. Let me brainstorm how I can post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_Mom Posted February 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I changed the picture...what do you think. Can you e-mail me your idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereishope Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I like the new one better. Was he laughing right before the picture was taken? He looks like he's smiling a little. He looks so cute! I do like it! If you message me your email, I can email you the image. I only worked on it for maybe 2 minutes so if you hate it, it won't hurt my feelings. I figured if it was something that was a "maybe", I'd put more effort into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
