Title: Leaflets competition
Post by: TheBoy on 19 May 2007, 09:48:01
No prizes I'm afraid, just a bit of fun - based on the fact we have nothing to give!

Design an A5 sized leaflet to advertise OOF.

Please don't post your designs here - I will provide an email address for you to email to.

Closing date will be around 5th June 2007, judges decision final. Judges will be the 4 members of admin team here.

Does it matter which format they are sent in?  i.e. Word, Publisher etc. or would you prefer a PDF first and worry about the format later?

I would guess any standardish format that we may be able to read without special software, so Acrobat is ideal.

For those that may not have these, there is a freeware PDF creator - cutePDF - that works pretty well.

Ultimately, we may need to edit it if we decide to use it, so we will need it in a format we can use and edit.

Correct.  Even though the email address will be shut down once this compo is over, I don't want my mail server taking a hit rejecting spam....

Do you think its worth using our logo, and a similar colour scheme to the site, so match your branding here?

Please include your forum name on your email, so that we can work out who has submitted what?

I think STMO123 got the morph position according to AA, and there was some rumour that RMc was a wee bit upset, as he never got offered the opportunity, this was all decided on the 1st of April 07, check the previous posts in general chat page 7 :y

just seen this and i have a questions if i may:

what font is used in the graphics above (the bit that says "Omega Owners Forum")?

It would indeed be good to keep the similarity between leaflet & Website; it'll make it instantly recognisable.... is the idea to go around sticking these in wipers of meegas?

also is it single side or double? or can i choose?

Don't know the font, will try to find out...

As for single/double sided - your choice. Though this may affect the decision due to printing costs...

 Not very good at using all these thingamybobs on pc wotsit to design hows yer fathers but the above sounds good, but how about a picture of our old man/grandad estates on it some where, Especially as they are more rare than all your saloon models ;D ;D ;D

As the closing date was a month ago and nothing's been heard since, I think we can safely assume that either:

a) TB accidentally wiped the entries ;)

or

b) They were so universally awful that the admins are hoping we'll all forget about it. ;D ;D
