If it's in a FedEx box, it's definitely dead.

Keep it as is is 61% ATM, which I also support. Was anyone complaining about it?

So we good? I hope so because I need to unload all this merch I had made.


While we’re at it, can we roll all the digital forums into one and call it “Just use your phone”?

I like the name.

We could add a banner that reads, "Please dispose of your hazardous developing chemicals at your local HHW disposal center like a responsible human being." Is that too tree-hugger preachy?

Keep "Film is not Dead". I actually also like this title. Nothing wrong with it. So far a very good and supportive forum. More quality posts here than in other forums.

It's okay, but I prefer this banner:

"Stay Positive, Shoot Negatives."

But that would discriminate against those who shoot slides.

There will be a sub-forum for "The Fortune's of Reversals"

Yeah, as someone who shot slide film exclusively for 30 years I thought about that but not many people shoot slide film anymore: basically you've got Ektachrome and the occasional roll of Velvia and Provia that costs more than some of my cameras. A few B&W reversal options as well.

Oooooh! Merch opportunity! Because that would make a great bumper sticker.

I think it's already been done -- I spotted that slogan a couple of years ago, it was a sticker attached to the laptop of one of the technicians at the lab I go to for colour film developing. He had a bunch of other film-related stickers on that laptop, I wish I had taken a photo of it. He's long gone from there, not sure where he ended up but labs in my town seem to have a lot of turnover. It's certainly not a job I could ever envision doing myself.

All the good bumper sticker ideas are probably taken.

I vote for keeping the name as it is @Fred Miranda

but as a sidenote, one thing that's always confusing me is how the Post your recent film shots! thread is both in the "Film Is Not Dead Forum" as well as in the "Leica & Alternative Gear" one at the same time.
