Hi all. We're in need of some artwork to run pointing folks towards the LGM Pledgie campaign site. We have media sponsors lined up that will give us free impressions, we just need "the creative."
The specs so far include: LinuxPro: Banner 468 x 60 LinuxPro: Skyscraper 160 x 600 -- LinuxJournal: Banner 728x90 -- Text ads for LWN: Title field: 48 characters Body field: 120 characters In all three, we can link to an URL (which in the text ad does not count against our character limit); we'll use the Pledgie URL. There are more to come, but we need something for these ASAP. Best idea is to coordinate, so that we use the same design motifs for all three -- makes for a more unified campaign blitz and makes it easier to adapt the artwork to varying sizes rather than start from scratch. Obviously on the text ad, we'd want to use the same message. Please submit a design (or three!) to the issue tracker at https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413 Comment #5 ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413/comments/5 ) lists the specs again for reference. Things to keep in mind: these media sponsors are (so far) all Linux / FLOSS sites; the know the projects and so do the readers. They may, however, be more receptive to the campaign if we focus on the fact that all funds go towards developer travel, and that the event is a collaborative effort. But don't camp out on that; any and all ideas are welcome. We'd like to launch the campaigns by Friday, so please submit art work between now and Thursday. Thanks!
