In the CFF's ongoing negotiations with Daily Variety (which offers its heartiest congratulations on our success), a representative of the magazine has made an offer that it is impossible for the management of the CFF to ignore. That offer is as follows:
"Normally a full page 4 Color is over $11,000..but since I know you are on a budget I would be willing to give you a full page, 4 color rate of $7,000!!!"
Since Daily Variety is a "daily," we have much more flexibility, and the magazine has given us up to one week prior to the artwork deadline (14 September 2004) to upgrade from a black and white ad to a full color ad.
No other fan organization has ever taken out a full color ad in support of their cause. This feat is, however, now within our grasp.
Therefore, the Colonial Fan Force Campaign has been relaunched, effective immediately, with the goal of raising an additional $2,000 over the next 60 days. We raised $10,000 in 3 months, I firmly believe we can raise another $2,000 in 2 months.
Spread the word far and wide! We have already made Battlestar Galactica history, now let's make fan history!
We can do this.

The Variety offer is an unexpected gift, but a gift nonetheless... now let's take the Battlestar Galactica revival effort where no revival effort has gone before... full color!
