      Hello, ya'll!
      Just submitted my survey, but didn't see an area to give input on a t-shirt style...
      My vote is for screenprint, but I'll be a happy lil' camper either way.

      Hi Matthew. The kickstarter campaign has officially ended. Your best bet is to email us at popsproduction(at)gmail.com and we'll see what we can figure out.

      I love this project so much that I went through the trouble of adding cash to paypal so I could atleast throw $5 here! I wish PoPS was a once a week thing! Although that will probably never happen, it's nice to dream.

      I've been checking in every day and the fact that 269 people made this dream of yours a reality so far, makes me certain that there are plenty of genuine, giving people in this world.

      Love the show guys! It really is phenomenal that you are able to have the quality level (awesome that is) without much funding, and I'm excited that maybe having some backing will make it all the better.

      Just little side question, I went for the hundred dollar donation, and I was wondering if there was any possible way the cast could sign it. I know it isn't mentioned as a prize, but it would be awesome.

      Thanks you guys for making this awesome show, keep up the good work!

      Hey.. is it possible to get instead of the signed dvd (+25$ pledge) like a pops-poster signed by you four (I mean Mike, Craig, Carlyn and Eliza)?.. something of size.. say, A3? That would be cool..
      And regarding that payment issue (because I'm also not from the US).. can't we sent you the money directly into an account.. and not using amazon?

      I'm an animation student in the UK, and it takes us 3 months to complete a 2 minute film. So I totally sympathise! I'm really impressed with the level of sophistication in the storylines. Can't wait for the next instalment :) I was curious; how hard is it to organise such a large cast (for a small production), and how long does it take to write the script?
      Many thanks for the awesome series and good luck!

      Mike on January 17, 2011

      Ok, slight problem with that. Whilst going through the amazon payment system, the country is locked onto United States and I can't continue without entering my address.

      Ok, I've located the problem (from the FAQ)
      I'm international and keep getting asked for a US address when pledging. What do I do?
      If you are a non-US Amazon Mechanical Turk user you may experience a problem trying to pledge. We've alerted Amazon about this bug. Sorry this is annoying.

      ...:sigh:
