Paul Hamilton was the 3rd place winner in the LTL Prints 2009 Design competition. Paul is a Baltimore native who is attending the Art Institute of Philadelphia majoring in Interactive Media. A merger of his interest in cars and design produced the inspiration for his winning Lambo design.
Paul came by the LTL Prints‘ office to pick up his prize - a small print of his Lambo design. Check out the video of Paul’s first experience sticking and unsticking his LTL Print.

A few weeks ago, we received a call from Meg Havern from TicketLeap.com. TicketLeap was looking for an easy and affordable way to have their logo displayed at the entrance to their Center City Philadelphia Offices.
This request made us smile for several reasons. First, Ticket Leap is an awesome company! For those of you who may not have see their TechCrunch article, TicketLeap made inroads in the highly competitive event registration and ticketing software market by choosing to cater to small companies and events. Ticketleap not only allows their clients to sell tickets online, but they offer box office solutions through the additional reporting and tracking services available on their website. Second, TicketLeap shares our vision in beginning a start-up adventure here in Philadelphia. Lastly, TicketLeap is comprised of a great team. They recently landed Blake Jennelle as their Director of Marketing and have brought on several others that round out their already fantastic team!
Kendall decided to hand deliver their print since their headquarters is only blocks away from ours. Within hours of receiving Meg’s phone call the TicketLeap crew was standing in their office admiring their Larger Than Life prints logo with pride. Kendall was able to spend time with their CEO, Chris Stanchak discussing their most recent purchase. Here is a video of Chris and his team finishing installation.

Today Carsten and I wanted to reveal a fun fact about ourselves that you might not know. Checkout this video and then leave a comment about your Friday Fun Fact that we don’t know! Have a great weekend!
This video was a little longer and so I chopped it down. Enjoy!
Our last post on thinking differently received some great comments. Thank you! We love having a conversation with you.
This past Tuesday at the NatMechanics bar in Old City Philadelphia, a group of technology inclined individuals met to have fun, enjoy each others company, and help feed those without. The GeeksWhoGive food drive was a wonderful success and we’d like to give a great big LTL shoutout to the the crew. Great work!
After the event the crowd hung around for the weekly @TechkaraokePHL. After some talking, I finally convinced Carsten to step up and grab the mic. Here is the hilarity that ensued. Look at how passionate he is when it comes to German.
Enjoy… but after you’re done, drop us a line and let us know how long it’s been since you last sang Karaoke!
As always, you can track more of my Philadelphia encounters by following @schoenrock or @LTLprints on twitter… or both!
A special thanks to Kathy at ParentTalkToday.com for blogging about us. I will update this post with the link to her article when it’s published! Update: Read the article here!
Leave me a line and let me know how you think I did.
This time last week Carsten and I packed up and headed west. We were on a mission to woo angel investors into our company and we had a blast doing so. Here is a short video that summarizes just a few of the awesome events we were fortunate enough to experience in the middle of the country - Junction City, Kansas.
Alex Hillman, the rockstar co-founder at IndyHall just posted this video. Thanks for the video - we love it!!!
We want to bring you high quality material and we can’t brag enough about how durable our LTLprints actually are. Lucky for us we’ve got cool friends (who also love Viddler) to help us out on our mission of spreading the LTLprints.com word.
