Default Blu-ray poster?

In the spirit of "stealth marketing" I am planning to display a small to medium size poster in my office.

Here are my "requirements":
- I would like something stylish: no CGI monsters, no erotic images, should blend-in well with the business office environment;
- Should be rather subtle, than aggressive;
- Preferably, with a nice touch of humor;
- should carry the message clearly even to those who are completely unaware of Blu-Ray.

Do you guys have any ideas on where to get a poster that would fit my "stringent" requirements? Or do we have in-house artists here?

Just use search engines to find something. Print it on 8.5 x 11 paper.

Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, this was my first first idea as well, but I eventually decided against it - it is too apparent, it will be seen as an obvious ad, whereas I was thinking of a piece of graphics art that would be pro-BD, perhaps with a small BD logo. But simply printing a large BD logo would not be too intriguing.

I did try to google the BD art up before creating this thread, but so far have found nothing too interesting. Surprising, I was hoping for more links containing BD related art.

I was going to put up a sign:
"Help poor HD media addict finance his Blu-Ray habit". Make an offer on the following DVDs which have been replaced by Blu-rays:

Include list of DVDs I've doubledipped on.

Thanks again! As much as I like these simplistic posters, they are hardly inspiring. I really want this to be a work of art that I would actually like to see on a daily basis. I will try to create something on my own if nothing is available yet. Perhaps a collage of a movie released or announced for Blu-Ray and a Blu-Ray logo. While not quite what I hoped to get, this is still better than a plain BD logo on the wall. Once done, I will post it here.

That's a good one ... Man, we all need this help to some extent. Even with those Warner discount codes I feel I used up my media expenditure budget for a few more months to come

It may not be appropriate in today's uber-PC work environments, but that's not going to stop me from keeping something like that up at home.
