One way to make this event big is to turn it into a cultural phenomenom. Make it minimal. Make it art.

Here's one of my ideas: use your own face and black it out on facebook, or on whatever avatars you have:

Here's how you do it:

1. Find a good photo of you. Crop the image to only your face.

2. Desaturate the image/remove color.

3. Apply ultra-extreme contrast. Make the blacks black and the whites white.

4. Black out your face with a black bar across your eyes. The bar can be slightly-transparent (95% opaque) to give a little extra depth to it. Adding a 2% noise gives a nice effect as well.

Here's an example:

If you guys don't have a photo editing program, just say:

Help Me!

And post a photo of yourself. I can quickly do the work for you.
