Update #8 · May 7, 2012 · 13 comments

Dear Kickstarter friends,

Well, that was pretty crazy. Philosophy Posters ended up raising $41,167 from 1,393 backers, which was 2,058% of my original $2,000 goal.

So what happens now?

  • Over the next two weeks Kickstarter and Amazon Payments will process all of your pledges and transfer funds to me.
  • After that's done, I'll send everyone a backer survey where you can enter your shipping address and pick the poster designs you want.
  • Once I get backer surveys back, I'll start the printing process. Each poster will be a hand-pulled screen print, and this will take a few weeks.
  • As soon as posters are all printed, they'll get packaged, labeled and sent out in one big batch.

I'll keep you updated on all of this right here on Kickstarter. You can also find updates on my tumblr and twitter (let's be friends).

Thanks again for all your support, I can't wait to get these posters out to you!

- Max

P.S. My friend Rob just got back from New Zealand and he took some unbelievable photos that he's turning into prints. I just got a big one from his Kickstarter project.
