CorvetteFlorida.com flyers!
 

OK, I have the design finished (I think...) and am printing out a bunch of samples on my own Epson 220 printer. Does a pretty decent job of it, so I may just do it this way rather than running the design to the printers. Besides, I've had this darn printer just sitting in my den taking up space, so I might as well put it to good use.

Thanks to Jim Kill for spurring me on with this by making the initial layout of the text and giving me incentive to run with the ball he handed off to me...

If anyone wants some of these to pass around at shows, please PM me with your mailing address. I just need to pick up some boxes to ship the flyers in and I can start sending them out.

Thanks!

Looks good! Send some down this way. I'll take them to the Roger Dean show in Cape Coral October 28th. I tried to print them off from your post but it was too wide for my printer...?? If you would email me one I'll see if I can print it off and have some printed down here.

I should be able to convert this to a PDF file. At least the program says so. Let me give that a whirl and see if it works. Getting ready to curl up with a bowl of popcorn right now and watch a movie, so it will be a couple of hours..... :D

Thanks.

cool flyer:thumbsup: I just save it as a pic. so i will make up some to pass around at the events i go to
.:dancer01: :thumbsup:

Yeh, I figured that out after I posted the note.
Thanks!

Well darn..... I created the .PDF file, but it looks like crap when I try to print it. Looks good on the screen when I open it up in Acrobat, but the print result is just all shadows. Hmmm... Probably some important switch I missed somewhere.

BTW, I used a program called Art Explosion Publisher Pro to do the flyer. Seems to be very intuitive to use and really easy to work with. Didn't have to crack open the manual even once. On the other hand, I bought another package which I thought would be the better of the two and was severely disappointed. Broderbund's PrintShop ProPublisher version 22... I couldn't get that program to do ANYTHING I wanted it to at all. Wish I could take it back, but most places just won't take back software, no matter how bad it is. :(

HELP ON THE WAY
 

YOU MAY WANT TO MAKE THE LOGO SMALLER....YOU ARE STARTING TO SHOW THE "PIXELS". :banghead:

IF YOU WANT TO SEND ME THE FINAL..IN ANY FORMAT...I CAN HELP AND PRINT FOR THE "ULTIMATE CORVETTE PARTY".:thumbsup:

:dancer01: "WE ALL ARE A TEAM HERE AND WE ALL CAN PITCH IN AND HELP!!!":dancer01:

HAVE YOU TALKED TO "FERMAN" ABOUT A SPONSOR LOGO AND PAGE? CALL "TOMMY".:shrug01:

I guess I showed up late to the party. I just replied to your PM Rich. Sorry.

Looks good.

Bro i am always a day late dollar short:rofl1:

Unfortunately I have not been able to contact the guy who originally did my logo for me. Now it prints out fine from the original file I created, but bear in mind the image I posted here is NOT the original file.

Anyway, I tried exporting the file as a larger image, so try downloading this one to see if it appears better when printed:

I also have a .TIF image on the server, but bear in mind that this is a 32 meg file! -> http://www.corvetteflorida.com/pics/cfl_flyer.tif

If anyone also uses the Publisher Pro 2.0 software, you can utilize the work file itself if you want it. -> http://www.corvetteflorida.com/pics/cfl_flyer.npp

As for "Ferman", no I haven't approached them. I have sent out a few requests for sponsors, but thus far results have not been encouraging to continue in that effort. I suppose the site just isn't large enough to attract advertisers. Yet.

Thanks.
