Hey

Thanks! Looks nice. The map didn't fit when I tried to print it out
though. The banner on top doesn't come out well when I print it on my
laser - its basically light grey with white writing.

Cool i will try and make it black and white and play with the saturation
levels to make it stronger.

I'm going to be out of touch for a couple of days (mini-holiday!) but
will do some editing - the text is cool but its too much, the font size
ends up too small and you know how people are with reading lots of
stuff. :( (Also, maybe the paragraphs should be fully justified instead
of left justified?)

Could you make the change with the text? there is a lot I landed up having
to use number 9 and squishing the words quite a lot closer together. If we
could summarise the text to basics then we can fit it all in with a bit of
space for design breath and ease. Not sure what you mean with the
paragraphs...?

One thing I would like to change if the text shrinks is the order of text.
It is meant to read from what the rrfm is through to the how's and why's.
Think it makes better reading sense. There just wasn't enough space for
this, I really feel there should be some form of design and logo type thing
on the front/first page as well as the text. This way works as well, but if
the text shrinks then we can play with the flyer a bit more.

I just wouldnt know where to start - it all seems to relevant and
informative.


I LOVE the design - the organic flowy-ness of it is great!

What layout software are you using btw?

Thanks, I'm using Illustrator and Indesign

I'll only get a chance to play with this a bit later today or tomorrow
afternoon, depending when i get some other deadlines out of the way.
