Concerning text for an add, I'll (again) suggest we adopt the text for 
the New York ad:


http://homepage.mac.com/bhorst/

I like the minimalistic style - it says the necessary in very few words. 
This also has the advantage that the text can be used in small ads, as 
well as it makes it easy to translate.

Produce several high resolution versions of your ad, in as many
formats as you can think of and off you go.

Thanks for forewarding this.
As far as I am aware, the Dutch NlOOo-project has little art-expertise. 
However we can contact Matthijs anyway, to make ourselves known, thank 
him, and promise some materials for the future...

I suggest that we cooperate with the art folks to make some proposals 
for paper and magazine ads in different formats with English text. These 
masters should of course be in ODF format so we can localize them easily.


We could use the New York ad for inspiration:
http://homepage.mac.com/bhorst/

We are free to use it, but I don't know were we can download it in an 
editable form. Anyway, I like both the layout and the text because it's 
simple and clean. The only thing I would like to ad is our official (and 
much under-used) positioner: "Open. For Business".


Best regards,

Finn G. Larsen

We once got an offer from a Munich-based newspaper with a circulation
of 800,000 copies. Since they are/were using OpenOffice.org themselves,
they wanted to give something back by printing ads for free in cases
where they have free ad space.

I created a few ads in different formats and over a few moths the ads
got printed a few times.

Hi there,

Just a thought: I work in the magazine publishing business and we
often receive cd-roms with ads for NGO's. We use them in situations
when an advertisement is cancelled 1 minute before going to print.
Here in The Netherlands all non-profit organisations send such cd's to
any major publishing house and see their ads appear on a quite regular
basis. I don't know if this goes for other countries as well, but you
could give it a try.

Produce several high resolution versions of your ad, in as many
formats as you can think of and off you go.

Greetings,
Matthijs Dierckx
