Thread: I need an opinion...

    Question I need an opinion...

    Morning Gents and Happy "Post-Christmas Recovery Day!"

    I am running a tourney here in Pickerington in a couple of weeks and just put together a duplex flyer to post in the store, hand out, and hopefully get other Ohio members to hand out for me as well. I was wondering if you would look it over and give me your opinions please. I have attached both parts (Flyer Front based on Keith's very cool background, and the rules and details to be printed on the back!)

    Thanks in advance!

    Morning Ken.
    Only one observation to make, on what is a very well presented poster, and that is registeration time seems a bit tight. How many folk are you estimating for, and how many chaps doing the signing in?

    Probably two of us signing in folks and I expect no more than 20 players... it would be tough to put more in this particular store... but your point is fair... I think I will move up the registration time to 12:15... Thanks!

    Your poster is really nice!

    I agree with Rob to underline the tournemant date .

    I suggest or the same font colour but the font size of "Tournemant sponsored ..." for date and time or to use the same font colour of "Prizes.." with the same font size.

    Looks good Ken. Is this for WWI or WWII? The name implies WWI, but the roundels at the bottom could imply WWII. Might want to clarify that.

    Nice poster, and with it being a Sunday, I can come down for it.
    I do hope it's WW1, as that's all the minis I have

    I have gotten so many really nice compliments on this poster that I really feel it is important to point out that the blank version of this was in the files section as a download. It was put there by Keith, I am not sure who the actual artist was... all I did was add the text... just making sure folks here don't think I have any artistic skills short of cowspots...

    Belgian, Russian, Greek, Turkish (Bulgarian and K.U.K are as German, Serbian is same as French), too. There is enough space on the left hand side, enough to put Aerodrom logo there, too.

    KK,
    I put the Italian Roundel on it, cause the company that publishes the game is Italian:

    The original didn't have the Aerodrome logo on it, so I didn't add it.

    Also, I am using this to promote the game, and to show support for ARES at local conventions, so I added their logo. I hand out Aerodrome Business cards at the conventions, too, to promote our Forum, which people get to take with them (Find the card file here: Aerodrome Business Card.
