Stop Animation - Neil Gaiman's 'Coraline'

An animated version of Gaiman's book 'Coraline' hits theatres on Feb 6. It's apparantly the first stop animation movie to be filmed in 3D and it's directed by Henry Selick of Nightmare Before Christmas fame.

They've created a really clever marketing campaign. 26 unique cards were given exclusively to 26 sites around the Web that contain different images, characters, and elements from the film. The challenge is for you to find them.

I've listed all of the sites that have the Coraline Alphabet Cards below for those of you who are interested in collecting them.
