For a while, I have been supporting a free Tibet by helping out as much as I can. Since the fight for a free Tibet has gotten so big, I thought why not bring it to the web. So please show your support the cause. We have few options available for you.

I modified the code. The textarea box was not going too well. So I removed it and linked it back to this thread.

You could at least make the code valid. I think Tibet has enough trouble on its hands to be dealing with this invalid code, and I don't think they'd appreciate the lack of effort shown in producing invalid code to "support" their cause. That's a bad representation of freedom.

On a realistic note, pointlesssssssssssssssssss.

It maybe pointless to you, but it is important to some people.

Also about the code, does it really matter? All we're trying to do is put a message out there. If the message is heard, then its an accomplishment for us. You don't have to put it, its a suggestion for those who believe in all nations freedom.

Why do you want people to cover their entire site[s]? A smaller-but-effective label or button with a link to a dedicated 'Free Tibet' site that offers informtation regarding how people can actually help would serve your purpose just as well, if not better. That way, you'd be informing your visitors about the movement too.

There are several such sites, like:

freetibet.org

freetibet.net

Right now, I find this a rather uninformed attempt, one that will draw the wrong type of response, from the 'I-am-doing-this-because-it's-cool' crowd, who are generally ignorant of the real issues.

Note: Having said all that, I only wish this Tibet issue could be solved without any more violence...

Tom - Yes I am helping through the process of donation as well. I participate along with my girlfriend in the Students for a Free Tibet. We are in the process of creating a division of the cub in my university along with few others. The reason for the web is imagine what big effect it would have on people if big and popular site such as rapidshare or even alistapart takes its service down even for day. Think of what will spread through peoples mind. That is the effect we are aiming for. Btw its not just me that is doing this. We have many sites from all over the world that is in support.

Machine - You do not have to remove it completely. You can always place a banner or even a ribbon such as the ones from ONE (fight poverty). But the objective is to take off your service and send out a message such as "we will not work until we can what we seek"

Heh. I just gave a speech for my class about freeing Tibet. (Actually, that's like the 6th time I've used Tibet for a school project.)

But I definitely agree with Machine. It'd be far more effective (and less of a hassle) to just put a button (possibly with some info) linking to a page with much more information.

Why not something like this?

It's nothing fancy I just made it with an online generator. But still...

Yeah, it's simple and effective. But how about using colours from the 'unofficial' National Flag of Tibet? I believe you can see the colours on the two sites I posted above...

The only reason I did it that colour was because it was close to the one in the "full page" thing that Iamshipon posted. The online generator was a PITA to use because it doesn't let you select the color of the background, you just choose 1 of the 80 or so backgrounds they have.

Well, this [below] is closer to what I had in mind -- a virtual 'Free Tibet' badge or button, featuring the colours of the Tibetan flag:



or



Note: Both are PNG images [with transparency] and can be used with/over any background [the credit info can be deleted in Photoshop].

Cheers!
