Just a couple of points about the recent poster.<br>
<br>
I do some graphic design (for web and for flyers, posters etc. for our <a
href="http://www.barefoot-ceramics.co.uk/">pottery business</a>) and
I'm sure there are actually trained graphic designers / artists on here?<br>
<br>
The poster is very CLI (for want of a better description). I wouldn't
want to see it over designed (aero!) but some use of colour and
contrast and some distinctive fonts wouldn't go a miss.<br>
<br>
Perhaps a call could be made to make a general poster for SWLUG events
with space for the specifics and maybe a logo for whether it's
lightning talk / pub meet / installfest. I'd recommend <a
href="http://www.inkscape.org">Inkscape</a> (it can output to PNG, PS,
PDF, etc.). That way the stock poster could be used, easily edited for
new events.<br>
<br>
Does the SWLUG have a header for letters and the like?<br>
<br>
Just FWIW.<br>
