Or as cicle.org calls it:
properganda. (http://cicle.org/properganda/properganda.html)
I guess other than the two stickers and handful of shirts you can order, you're supposed to print your own stickers and things to use. Which seems kind of a prob to me. I'd love to support a good cause and pay for the stickers.
But in the meantime, I'm really wishing I had something like this that is small enough to put on a bike. Maybe not directly on the fender (or maybe so? I dunno) but somewhere. How would you do it?

Hmmm. That's not working. Let me try another one:

I like the one that says "Dummer" over a pic of a Hummer. I know a big yellow one I'd like to stick that to.

Absolutely!
I wonder if you can have any of those put on t-shirts. It's odd to me that they have all those designs but nothing set up to help you buy them. I think you're just supposed to use them however you want to, or print up your own stickers or something?

I LURVE the 'alternative energy' sticker, Pooks
We have a sustainability group at work, I'm going to take that along (well, print the pic) and suggest we make some up for staff members and for the public as advertising - if work has its logo on there, I am sure that they will consider doing a run of bumper stickers.

Geonz - meant to add... it would be good to see a series of those religious ones for the religiously inclined with all the big name prophets, not just Jesus...
Would Buddha drive a car? I don't think so!

Pretty positive they're free for open use. Like to remind y'all that though I agree 100%, putting said stickers on Bummers (Dummers/Hummers) et all that are not yours is defacement of property and some people will go as far as to say it's vandalism/libel (because it's in written word that their brand new, shiny gashog is Dummer) and you may be taken to court.
This is as illegal as piracy and vandalism becasuse I'm sure they'd be the first to tell you they bought their monstrosity and the gas to run it with their own hard-earned American dollars, and soldiers, babies, and maybe even Jesus died to give them the right to drive their almost-scaled-down version of an Abrams tank.
How can you, a cyclist, appreciate the hard work and labor that went into their eyesore?
I have a good idea that these images are out there for open use so modernday punk kids who don't care about the legal implications above can print them off and slap 'em on cars etc and without copyright "ownership" of the image, the site can't be blamed. Also, it makes it easier to get the 'word' out there when people don't have to pay for it.
Food for thought.

Or you could just print them out on plain paper and put them under the wiper.
:D

On that site they also have traffic citations you can print off that are written so that they are obviously jokes, but you can issue them to people driving gas hogs, etc. I'm assuming you do stick them under the wiper. I printed some off, then realized I can't imagine ever using them! But they're fun.
