My summer is too busy so I can't really help out. But I really doubt any posters would be up in schools. You'd get beaten for it, no joke... Internet is probably the way to go.

How about making desktops instead of posters? It's more environmentally friendly and images don't need to be of such high resolution as for print. Just my two trias.

Because nobody has seriously used uberscreenshot; this may be an opportunity to show what Crystal Space can do.

That's terribly ironic, bugplug not doing what it's supposed to do!

That may well be in schools.

Do make large posters also if possible. Knowing your target audience is part of the promotional campaign, folks. When I was in college, I had to present a project for a Virtual Reality class and used PlaneShift and a custom map for it.

I would target universities with Computer Science classes to gather not only additional players interested in a free MMORPGs, but also potential developers.

I'd be interested in a promotional poster, the criteria I have for it are as follows:

# Must be black and white (no color printer available for me here)
# Should include infomation for players as well as information for ongoing dev prospects (I'm at an IT college, so am pretty sure we can catch both, players and devs here)
## Info for dev prospects should include departments with a brief description of them and whatever kind of devs are needed (php coders, c++ coders, etc etc)
# Should be DIN A4 format
# If possible information should be in English and in German
# Additionally a foldable brochure could be added with additional information (So I can pin the poster at the message board and put some brochures below it for everyone to take and read)

Thanks in advance.

We just want a damned poster folks, a poster, something you post.

background images for computers are OK but if someone is already in your room you've probably told them about PlaneShift.

If you are getting beaten up at school for any reason, including PS, please go to the authorities.

So, I'm guessing there isn't a deadline, considering I asked back in march and no one answered. *grumble*
Are there any entries yet?
I started on one, it isn't too fancy. Shall I post a link to it when it's done here or something?

Yes. The idea is to have something people can print and post in their area.

Make sure to spell PlaneShift with a capital S, and use Helvetica (instead of Arial) if possible.

If I may make a suggestion - also include a link to the forums, besides the main PS page and the recruitment page. It might be useful to folks who have initial install problems.
