The impetus behind my posting this is because I’m a life-long Chicagoan and proud to say that our nation’s 1st black president is from Chicago.  Moreover, I’ve represented one of President-Elect Obama’s former employers, Chicago’s own Developing Communities Project, (see my client testimonials page for further information); and I’m board president for Youth Communication Chicago, a publisher of teen newspaper New Expression.

Ben Woods, from www.benwoods.com, posted his own collage at http://benwoods.com/assets/images/obama_wallpaper.png.  On my blog he says that his is a “real collage.”  Come on Ben!  Yours is great but nowhere near as impressive as “Geoff’s,” whoever he/she may be.  Your collage contains what, about 200 images? Geoff’s has about 700 images.

Isabel Cortes asks if there’s a way to get an electronic image version of the collage.  Isabel, I actually made a few unsuccessful attempts at making a jpeg, tiff, etc., version.  Unfortunately, I’m not that adept at some of this web publishing and image stuff.  Sorry.  If you hear of anyone else making a different version of the collage, please let me know.

Thanks Ben and Isabel for your comments.  Chuck

P.S.: In response to reader Ben Woods’ comment, I’ve posted his excellent collage here in my 11/23/08 post.
