Do we have any specs from Linux User Developer on the ad size / colors allowed / what file format they prefer / etc? Hi, IMHO, I think is good idea to promote the GNOME platform. The typical Linux User reader already know what the GNOME Desktop is. The idea is to marketing that GNOME platform is more than GTK+ I'm thinking about a beautiful GNOME component stack design with a message like A Free Platform for Freedom lovers or something like that or much better (I secretly dream about a 3D component stack design à la Star Wars' title credits but I don't have the design skills to elaborate it :) Cheers, -- Juanjo Marin -- marketing-list mailing list marketing-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing-list
Re: GNOME ad in Linux User and Developer Magazine
I should mention - motivation for the ad comes from July 26 issue of Fortune, Dow has a similar ad.
