A couple weeks back, while chatting on The Winchester Family Business CBox, I made up a Supernatural-themed motivational poster for Julie, who was having a bad day. I'm sure you've all seen motivational posters around, but if you're not familiar with them, they look something like this:

Lots of office buildings have them scattered around, which is hilarious because really, a poster is supposed to help you do your job better? "Oh, if I am just determined enough, I can also fly like a bald eagle!"
At any rate, my Supernatural poster seemed to cheer Julie up, and it was so fun to make, I started doing other ones. Well, those were a bit of a hit in the CBox, so I decided to make some more. It's turned into quite a fun pastime! And since we have all Hellatus to kill, I figured why not share them with everyone? Alice kindly agreed, so here is the first installment of my Supernatural Motivational Posters. I will attempt to send Alice a new group each week with a poster for each day to help you through your Hellatus-induced Supernatural withdrawal. Feel free to use these pictures however you want, as backgrounds or just enjoying them here, but if you repost them anywhere or share them with other people or whatnot, I just ask that you give credit where it is due, please.
So, without further ado, I present to you Supernatural Motivational Posters:
A Quick Word About the Future of the Motivational Posters
First of all, I want to say a big thank you to everyone who took the time this Hellatus to check out the motivation posters I was making, whether or not you left me a comment. It was very nice of all of you to be so supportive of my little project, and I appreciate all your support. I had a great time making them.
That being said, the posters were only intended to be a Hellatus project, and once the new season started up again, I was going to stop making them because we’ll all have more important things to discuss! However, after some gentle prodding, I’ve changed my mind and have decided to continue with the posters on a part-time basis. Here’s the plan: I will make a few posters each week based on the previous week’s episode. So, the week after the season premiere, look for a few new posters based on that episode et cetera, et cetera. How many new ones pop up will depend on how motivated I am and when the CW puts the episode online so I can cap it. And when the next Hellatus rolls around, which better not be for a long time, darn it, I’ll start putting them out daily again, hopefully.
So thanks again for reading and allowing me to be a little self-indulgent here, and big thanks to Jenniffer and Alice who have been very gracious in assisting with the technical aspect, the posting and the gallery and whatnot.

Well we do have quit same time to kill since hellatus just started (unfortunatly).
Would someone please be so kind to rip off same calender pages. Please!!!!!
SUddenly Queen came to mind: I'm going slightly mad.... :o, ah ,well, who cares!
Lots of love, Jas
I'm loving this motivational poster thing (and the all insanity around it too ;-)), but you already knew that didn't you
Yirabah, look for the Bobby one in next week's "serious Sunday" edition. It's the only day of the week I try to turn off the snark.
Jas, you're welcome, and I'm glad to be able to help a friend in need no matter how small the contribution. That makes it even more worthwhile!
Dany, yes, I did know you love it! =)
Karen, thanks, and you're welcome!
Julie, I don't know what I have started, but why are you yelling? Hee.
Evelyn, thanks so much! Keep checking back and let me know which ones you like.
Randal, YES!!! Astronaut! I couldn't leave him out.
Astronaut!! That one is my fave, too awesome 8-)
Keep it coming girl!
I check these out every day! Thank you so much for putting your creativity to work and giving us something to look forward to every day. I am especially enjoying 'fingerpainting' week. Love the theme and hadn't imaging what you could do with it but Cas' first angel-blasting spell in the green room in Lucifer Rising is awesome!
I'll come here every day just to check these out. Thank you so much!
Elissa, I loved that scene on the "SCIENCE" poster, too! They looked so hilarious in those getups. I also cracked up at the "that'll do, pig" line because my husband and I say that all the time in random situations, so it was especially funny to hear it in an SPN episode.
Megan, I hear duct tape works wonders for repairing poor souls torn to shreds. Let me know if it works for you. You're welcome for sharing them, and thanks for viewing!
Suze, please, please go around and staple things to people! I'm sure nothing could go wrong with that plan!
BagginsDVM, thanks! Glad you're enjoying the serious and the snark. Much more snark to come. And some serious, too.
Jas, they are missing out on a golden marketing opportunity by not having those action figures for sale, aren't they? I would totally buy one!
Elle2, you're welcome so much! Thank YOU so much for coming back and checking in to see the new stuff. I'm extra glad you're enjoying Finger Paint week because I had a great time making it. There are sooooooo many instances where people are covered in blood, too, so I could probably do a whole summer's worth. But I shall restrain myself...for now. =)
Whee
Hugs, Jas
I love the snake one and fingerpaint week made me giggle this is my first hellatus and i think this may help me to get through the wait especially as we get the show months later in the uk, which is a constant source of anguish and pain to me! I think i might go insane before february otherwise!
Love the posters....I have done a few on another site myself, and yours are awesome. Love Serenity. I think I just may have to use it as my desktop background for a bit, if it's ok with you...
Elle2, I just had to include Bobby in face paint week. The look on his face there after Cass got blown up in Swan Song was just priceless.
Jas, it's not sick at all to make fun of blood and gore and call it face paint. Okay, yeah, maybe a little, but I do have a slightly sick sense of humor sometimes! Welcome to the clube!
Faye, after a particularly frustrating day in my own cubicle, I remembered your comment and made up a poster with Sam in his cubicle, so look for it in the coming weeks.
Sonya, thanks! The Amazing Grace one seems to be a particular favorite. I made it on suggestion from a CBox chat friend, and I wasn't sure if people would like it, but shows what I know!
Alimac, I don't know about genius, but thanks! This is also my first Hellatus, and I also needed a way to pass the time. Glad these are helping you get by! All the other fun and interesting articles here on the site should help with that, too. And sorry for the extra wait. That must be horrible!
Boobula, posters are fun, aren't they? I like the Serenity one, too, if I'm being honest. The coloring is lovely in that scene. And please do use it as your desktop background! That would be wonderful!
The coloring is beautiful, and posters are a great deal of fun. My new desktop background makes me smile everytime I turn on my computer, Thanks for that!
I try to teach myself something new every hellatus, last summer was posters, Christmas break this last season was was moving Supernatural Avatars. Now this summer I have moved on to fanvids...way too cool. I have done 6 so far to songs that just move me.
Superine, hablo un poco de espanol, pero un bastante mal. Eh, no importa, no? Gracias por su comentario. Nos encantamos todos aqui, especialmente las personas en otros paises. Si pueda leer en ingles, hay muchos articulos buenos en este sitio de web. (Gracias al dictionario de espanol/ingles!)
"They're Canon" That's too funny!!!! Admittedly, I do not often click on the posters to make them bigger but this one I did trying to figure out what you were saying...hee, hee, glad I did!
Nice job!
i just watched this ep yesterday!
i love these posters they're awesome :mrgreen:
Patty, they're totally canon! And good timing on that episode watch and the poster! Isn't it weird how that works out sometimes? Glad you're liking the posters, too.
Another theme week is well under way, the Colt, the Impala, cell phones, the sandwich (too funny!)
Ardeospina, don't know how you keep coming up with these on a daily basis but thank you so much!
no need to thank the cbox. You now how much fun we have there with those posters. And all we did was a little brain storming. But the end result is all yours.
By the way thank you for coming up with this poster idea in the first place.
Elle2, also thanks for your kind words! And how I come up with them varies, if you're curious. Sometimes I have specific idea and I go with that. Sometimes I just look through episode screencaps and find something I like and go with that. Other times the CBox might give me an idea and I go with that. And still other times I have a theme and just go with that. So there's a lot of ways that I come up with these, really.
Yirabah, of course I need to thank you guys! Even if it's just a little bit of inspiration, it's still helpful. Sometimes the original idea is the hardest part. And you're welcome!
Thank you so much for these Ardeospina...they make my day.
Mae, thanks! I'm flattered that you're stopping by each day to see what I've been up to! And you're welcome for putting the work in. It's mostly fun, really.
Jas, Dean09 is a naughty boy! But no, I don't really think he would listen to Dean14. And I completely agree with the idea for a Dean vs Dean scene on the gag reel! That would be hilarious. You're welcome for the umpteenth time, and thanks for the thanks...heh.
Tim the Enchanter, do some call you that? Hee, like the name! It's not too much work, really, but you're welcome! Also, if you want the Yorick one on your classroom door, feel free to print yourself a copy. I certainly don't mind. If it's against your school rules, then of course don't, but yeah, go for it! These were meant to be shared! And if it can get kids to like Shakespeare, then all the better.
Karen, I cannot IMAGINE why the temperature would be going up in your house. Nope. No idea at all. You're welcome! Glad to help make your day better!
I have a request, I do hope Dean14 puts in an appearance
I am really looking forward to August, you have a lot of work to do there! Ju
Julie, Dean14 made his appearance yesterday! Check the poster gallery! He might have only been up for a little while, though. Maybe he'll be back at a later date...
Thanks for this beautiful eye candy! Love, Jas
Ohhhhh, Julie, yeah, I know what you're talking about now. Yeah, I'm sure he'll make an appearance. Perhaps next week...
The Amazing Grace one nearly makes me start crying at the finale all over again.
OH SAM!
Faye, don't worry, it's not to be helped! I'm glad you're enjoying them. Yay for desktops! Love that you're using the posters on both monitors, too. It is double the fun! Like the doublemint twins of posters.
Boobula, no internet for weeks? I don't know what I'd do with myself! Glad you got all caught up, wherever you may be checking in. And yes, the thigh holster...guh. It is rather fetching, isn't it? Towels are evil. They never listen when I tell them to do things!
Laura, glad you're enjoying. The Amazing Grace one seems to be quite popular, so you're in good company there. Thanks for commenting!
And thank you, Boobula! Angels had to be on here since there have been so many of them. And I think the week gets stronger as it goes along, so keep checking back. The upcoming Lucifer one may be my favorite since it is so ridiculous, and I do love ridiculous things.
The Lucifer one is great! I love ridiculous too! Oh and I also wanted to thank you for "STAKE - it's whats for dinner" Went out and bought myself and my father (since I am sitting with him while my brother is on vaca) each a big steak... Cooked them on the grill and it was the best steak I ever had! So thanks for the inspiration once again!
Thanks for yet another great poster, Flamey! Love Jas
Rlwgsd, wow, thanks so much! I'm super glad you're enjoying the posters! I'm humbled and very honored that you think they're the best thing for the summer Hellatus. It's very kind of you to say so, especially since you're right in that there has been some great stuff here this summer. There's a lot of talent on this site, and I'm proud to be a part of it. But yeah, Anna is tops, isn't she? I couldn't resist the pun there. Hee.
Elle, thanks so much! I'm also super glad that you are enjoying them! It would be fun to have them as real posters, wouldn't it? I guess you could always print them out or something and hang them up.
Boobula, I can't believe we ALL put together the same file! Amazing. Great minds and all that.
Jas, again, I don't know when the truth has looked that sexy! Probably never. I'm gonna say never. I had to use that picture because Sam was looking unreasonably hot in it.
The Amazing Grace one nearly had me in tears and so many of them have me busting up laughing.
Great job.
ASH: Be careful what you name your kids.

I was in bed with the insomnia thing again last nite and it popped in my head, I should have added "or a Yorkie with a red bow" to my comment.
:D!
You...you....you smarty pants you.
Punkimunki, thanks very much for commenting! It's not at all rude to lurk. I'm just glad you've been enjoying the posters so much! Thanks for the hugs and thank yous, though, because I'll gladly accept them! And now that you've joined the commenting ranks, feel free to post away! We love hearing what people have to say. Well, I certainly do!
Yvonne, I am happy. Very, very happy. *nods* I dearly wish I could have heard the snorting, though.
Especially Panic, coz your right, Bobby's got no cap! *gasp*!
Love Jas
Triquetral, glad you liked it! Bobby has a hoarding problem, let's face it. Books, junked-out cars, panic rooms...
Punkimunki, exactly! You can see Bobby's head! That's just not right. I can't believe the Apocalypse didn't start that very instant.
Pusscat, I think that's a very good idea! Definitely ask Santa for tied-up Winchesters. I may do the same thing.
Jas, you probably have, but thanks anyway! I loved that shot of Sam on the Impala. That car was just made for lounging, and he does look seriously cool up there. Besides, shallow isn't a bad thing!
Yvonne and CitizenKane2, thanks so much! When I came across that quote, I just knew I had to use it. It was too perfect. It's one of my favorites, too, to be honest. I'm glad you both liked it so much!
I love the little nod to Monty Python there, with Castle Aagggghhh!
