    Default Any Willing Graphic Artists?

    As a spin off from Tony's comment on another thread about workplace ignorance of the existence of eBid...

    Anybody with the graphic skills and willingness (I have the latter but lack the former) to do up an A4 poster promoting eBid that people can print off?

    Most people have access to workplace or social public noticeboards, so something that looks good (maybe even 'professional') that they can pin up should help spread the word.

    Probably better if it were generic www.ebid.net rather than localised. Maybe, if it was done as layers, people in differing countries could modify it for content and language to suit the local market?

    A Quick Response code (for those people always waving their phones about) might be a worthwhile inclusion.

    Multiple applicants not a problem. If there are more than one then all could be offered for download or a vote carried out for the 'winner'.

    Those of us that are able could make them/it available for download (maybe even eBid could get in on the game), I could even offer printed and laminated copies at cost.

    Anyone think it a good idea and/or up for the job?

    Art has never been my strong point, I have difficulty drawing a straight line even with a rule.

    Had a quick look at Vistaprint ( http://www.vistaprint.co.uk/posters....ts&xnav=TopNav) but that looks a tad expensive. I thought you might be able to buy a job lot at pennies each - looks more like pounds each.

    Wish I had paid attention in art class.

    It has already been given - along with some official copies that are ready for use:

    Didn't I see in another thread that you had created a flyer?
