I've had a run through some colours and nothing works. Black, text doesn't stand out. White and it feels wrong. No other colour works. I've got 3.5 weeks left and I need at least 1 / 2 for the posters and flyers to be out. If I decline this design I've wasted a week. The general consesus now is that the green doesn't work. Change it and the text then doesn't work. I dunno... stressed. Can't have this go up and look rubbish.

I like the colour but the font is too block IMO and takes away from the image.

BBx · 31-01-2008, 10:24

I 'think' I understand the blockiness... they are trying to create a frame or window effect looking out...

Am glad I'm not the only one who can't get on with Pea Green

I was up till nearly 4am playing. I got something I quite liked, and emailed the designers. It was mostly black, and they felt black wasn't strong enough and made it look dark and gloomy. I'm a simple guy. I mount my pics on a black mount with black frame and I'm happy. I like black

So they had a play and got back to me with what I think is win.

White for most, plum for images that are mostly white so the text shows up well. I really like it now. I was happy with the design but not the colour. Now I'd feel confident putting posters out like this.

I like them all! I actually like the green - had to look away and look at it again and imagine it big styley but yeh, I like it!

The white one is best from the black and white IMO.

Gah. The green reminds me of a poster for a film. And I cannot think of what it is. Bah.

It also reminds me of those pickled onion walkers crisps you used to be able to get.

They were yurmy!

Nom.

Maybe that's why I like them.

Man.

I'm hungry.

BBx · 31-01-2008, 13:54
