hello, scale-planners, we are sending an envoy to LISA to man a SCaLE booth on the exhibit floor. we were thinking of handing out flyers and we can use your input on that and the booth.
darkwing (david.wonderly@ubuntu.org) says he will make us a flyer tomorrow. to make getting started easier, i am trying to collect links to the graphics and text we already have that he is likely to need.
i was thinking of a two-sided flyer, the front being a standard thing with our new motif, and the back promoting selected special events. should we use colored paper? colored ink? how many should we print up?
ilan, you mentioned cross-promoting other events. can you please reply with the source for your linuxfests flyer used recently?
orv/gareth, since the Beginner Training and Next Generation efforts are relatively new dimensions for our event, would you like us to emphasize them at the booth? perhaps we could use the back of the flyer for those details. if we do that, then the flyer becomes a handout that LISA-goers can share with the linux newbies they know at home and the office. have you guys got any promotional text or graphics from last year that darkwing can use?
darkwing, here's what i dug up so far.
last year's design git:
https://github.com/socallinuxexpo/SCALE-Design
our new slogan and motif for 11x:

Hi Lori,
I don't have a flyer listing other linuxfests. I believe Orv made the one they used at SWCC.

let's do a slide show at the booth. where are we hiding all the great pictures from previous years?
we won't have a network drop at the booth. so i think we should collect what we can on something portable beforehand.
...lori
There are a ton of good pictures on Flickr.

1) Click on photo (or magnifying glass), which is "View in Light Box" 2) click on "View all Sizes" 3) There should be a "Download the" link.
If you don't see the 1 and 2 steps, may be a browse issue.
hth,
Steve
Lori,
I was able to download about 175 SCALE10X images that we can use. I'll put them on a thumb drive and bring them with me.

Usenix usually provides very good wifi. I wouldn't depend on this though.
Also, if anybody is interested, I'll be at the FSF booth(if that wasn't a surprise)

I'll get a flyer made up tonight, I promise!
And if someone wants someone photos, I can put them up on my web server for transfer. Let me know.

i will download whatever you make available, orv. you can decide what in your collection we should show off. just give me a link.

i got a flyer PDF from orv last night (thanks!), which i will get printed up today. how many do folks think i should have made? if i had to make a wild guess i'd say we could give out up to 150/day, so i would take, say, 300 to LISA? leftovers won't go to waste this early, but i have no experience and could be off by an order of magnitude. :-)

Were these the flyers for SCALE itself, or for listing the other linuxfests or both?

Dear Lori,
It's better to have too many flyers than not enough. It's not worth it trying to save ten bucks... get 600, and you'll buy peace of mind that you won't run out. My $0.02 worth. (or $0.04 / page, depending where you print. that's how much it cost me to print my LISA flyers, at CopyCatLA.com)
Yours fondly, -at
Our friends at IXSystems have posted a photo of the SCALE booth on facebook at: https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/20690_10151353214001508_89489768...
