My favourite so far.
You should add some little tear-off tags on the bottom for lazy people. :D

are there two spaces between 'novel' and 'from' or is it the centering tool stretching it out?

I like the addition of the all-staff.

Also FS, I can play with it a bit more and work out what seems like an extra space.

Before I make more adjustments and clutter this thread with posts of the same poster, are there any other suggestions or adjustments anyone else would like to suggest?

I am very happy to play with this. Thank you for the input.

"Mull" and "join" shouldn't be capitalized.  Maybe a little spot color to liven it up, in the text or the figure?  This looks so cool, Potaje.

I think there should be just a wee bit more white space on top and bottom.  The curl from the R is smushed right up against the top, and more white space on the bottom will give the poster a bit more weight.

I realize if you're designing this for print that's not necessarily, uh, necessary, since printers have their own margins, but if you intend to use this on a website anywhere there should be some more white space on the borders.

The "And it's free!" bit looks sort of lost and lonely where it is.  Put it up with the rest of the advertising text, it's screwing with the page balance.  I also like the tear-off tabs suggestion someone mentioned earlier.

I love the poster, it's really awesome, and will look even more awesome with just a wee bit of tweaking.

perhaps a color wash/water color (something not too flashy) on the gith clit and leave the figure black and white.

As I'm sure you know, Potaje, you can go to Image>Canvas Size and click the center of the arrow boxes, and enter in .5 to add a half-inch margin all around the background layer.  Then you can Paint-Bucket fill it with white, if your bg is transparent.

Wow, awesome.  Can you rotate the tear offs vertically so that you can fit more in?

AMAZING!  I am jealous of your talent!

Just a couple of teeny, tiny things:

1. "An In-Character Roleplaying Intensive"  An In-Character Roleplaying Intensive...what?  You've got plenty of adjectives, but we need a noun, or your statement makes no sense.  Maybe... "An In Character, Roleplaying Intensive Text Game," or "An In Character, Roleplaying Intensive Experience."

2. "Why mull it over, join in a living novel from your own computer."  I'd suggest splitting this into two sentences, as "Why mull it over" is an interrogative phrase, and "Join in a living novel from your own computer" is an imperative phrase.  You can't have both in one sentence.  So - Why mull it over?  Join in a living novel from your own computer.  Also, I think "Since 1992" could be more prominently displayed somewhere, as it is really quite impressive for a mud to last that long.

3. Your tear-off strips should be upended so that there can be more of them, and be easier to tear off.

I've made a rough edited version of what I'm talking about below. I had to use mspaint, as this computer does not have photoshop, but I'm sure you get the general idea.  These are all just suggestions!  You are doing a great job. :)

Ahem, not quite true. But a little exaggeration is ok I guess.  Plus if we count inactive, hiatus, legend types, then you're spot on!

Anway - nicely done Potaje, it's great to see the initiative taken and I hope we'll see the results in more players.

Sorry, Ran out of day, Halloween costume bash and all. Cutthroat not that I don't want to add more, just I think I am running out of room.

The print resolution is 300 when I aved it as a jpeg in photoshop. the print size is roughly 8 x 11, with the piece being 8 x 10.5 ish (tabs run longer, but the information on the tabs end at 10.5. its on my facebook page.

Thank you for the suggestions, assistance and accolades. Its nice to work on things with others, and rewarding in itself when the effort is appreciated. Perhaps we will have more in our futures.  ;D

Facebook always resizes images it uploads.

If you could tinypic it, we could snag it and then we can upload it to the ArmageddonMUD website in full form.

Ps, KISSES IN THE MAIL.
