So, got the quote back, £80 including vat and delivery to stevenage for 2* 2ft6 by 6ft banners.

Get designing people!

Is it not anywhere near the thousands of miles that people on THN seem to be travelling :p

It's a flat rate delivery, so it doesn't really matter where we get it delivered.

When we're nearer the time I can ask if we can collect

What are the pixel dimensions that match the canvas size and resolution ?

Necro-bump!

Got prices back (finally). Info follows:

Hello

Apologies for the delay been up to our necks.

The cost of the banners are as follows.

8 x 3 banner on an outdoor PVC, hemmed and finished with eyelets would be about £40
6 x 3 banner on outdoor PVC, hemmed and finished with eyelets would be about £30

The best format for the file would be a high resolution PDF, tif / jpg file or a vector file ie. EPS / Adobe Illustrator.

Let me know if you have any question and again sorry about the delay.

Regards

Dave

That's totally not orange.

Also... what happens when you take it to StratLAN? :p
Would it not be better without the i-series branding perhaps? Especially if it's going to stay in circulation for a while...

good point

I think trax's idea of @ LAN probably works better than a specific INSOMNIA series banner. We want these to be as versatile as possible!

StratLAN and any THN meetup?

I'm kinda split on this, as I do kinda like the Insomnia version

Do you want posters from my mates? I can easily pick them up on the weekend or one evening, and Vibs can come via my house to pick it up (as I'm assuming he'll be going via the M3?). Just curious.

1) We've never had a THN meetup. The only real THN meetup I've been to was when we went to ronins for rock band one evening. Having a banner there would just be.... sad

2) As far as I know, StratLAN isn't really one where you can go around putting your own banners up. It works when we're in a clanbox, but i think just in the main hall it wouldn't quite.

On the topic of stratlan: Summer party stratlan? You coming?

Anyway: back on topic. My personal thoughts re: dimensions is that its too tall. Generally with something like this where the text is the main bit, you want it to be a lot wider than tall. At the moment theres a lot of gap above / below, which although you can put some bits in, it doesnt seem to go right.

e.g. you could quite happily crop a 1/4 off the top of http://i.imgur.com/oMr9x.png and about 1/5th off the bottom and it would look okay.

and then sticking other silhouettes in seems a bit tricky cos theres not quite enough vertical height at the moment to properly gte them in at the right, , and the tf2 silhouette on the "horizon" cant really go on the right as its too close to the text. Cant go on the left cos its on the tree, so sort of gets a bit stuck in the middle really.

elD> i don't mind going to your mates, but I thought we hadn't had any pricing?

wol> I like the barcode, but I think the INSOMNIA looks soo much better than the @LAN in hindsight. Would be good to get the web addy in there somewhere thought.
Not quite sure what to do about the silloutes and stuff, I kinda like the tf2 one though...

Why bother with "at" anywhere?
It's obvious where we are 'cos we're there & so is the banner.

This :p

Just stick the URL down there instead? Orange looks muuuuch better though - loving the tone.
