Okay, this is the only place I can get to let me type. I love the monster AChiO letters, the simple
but professional Theta letters, but my favorite are these bubble AXiD letters that have creatively
solved the Xi problem better than any chapter I've ever seen!

You have excellent taste! These were my favorites too. And the Xi problem (although making me laugh from the phrasing) does make the letters more of a challenge. But again I ask, what are these made of? ESPECIALLY the A Chi O letters. They look like they're styrofoam, but so professional looking. I notice in some pictures the girls are holding their letters up with one hand, so not wood. I'm perplexed and it makes my head hurt!  ...

The ones at Ole Miss (for the most part) are wood. AOII at Ole Miss also has a smaller set of letters that are made of thick foam board. I would imagine the key to making the letters look so good is someone that can use a skill saw. (I think that is the proper term for that type of tool.)
I can imagine some letters are easier than others but the Xi is probably the hardest to make! I love the Alpha Xi Delta bubble letters too!

Hee hee...you know what I meant, but I guess it doesn't sound so positive!
I wish I had a picture of the foam letters I made for our windows in the dorm when I was a collegian. I wouldn't recommend using them for this purpose (Bid Day) since a stiff wind would crack them in half. They were really cute, though, since I made them with a panda bear over each letter. The pandas were holding hearts, and each one was different. The letters were massive and completely filled the windows of our dorm rooms, so the entire bottom floor of the sorority dorm screamed "AOII!" Of course, we later found out that the foam (used as building insulation) was flammable...oops!

They're not just repainted; they're completely new letters. I like the stripes. Very cute.

the XΩ owl- that is so cute! (but makes me feel like the X needs something extra)
|
Nice to know that I'm not completely crazy for thinking that the Ω looks like an owl. While in an extremely creative mood, it randomly came to me that XΩ's letters really looked like their symbols on the badge: X for the crossbones, Ω for the owl. So, technically, they just have to add a little skull to the X, and it's consistent.
Alright, so that was it; I think I need to cool it off and stop memorizing random useless facts.

This is one of my favorite sets of letters I've seen. I love the way they worked in our Love, Labor, Learning and Loyalty.

They're all so beautiful! I keep coming back to the black and white Pi Beta Phi letters - classic!
