#112: Create ad for Ad Bard network -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: jwboyer | Owner: duffy Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Component: Artwork Severity: Quick & Easy | Keywords: -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Hi Design Team,
We've been given the opportunity to have a Fedora ad hosted on the Ad Bard network, which operates under the guidance of the FSF. The Board needs to get an ad created with the following restrictions:
In order to move forward on this, we will need an image and text which will be used as your advertisement. The advertisement must be a jpg, png, or static gif measuring 120 pixels wide by 90 pixels tall. The text must be no more than 80 characters long.
Our current thinking of this is:
We could go with a simple Fedora 12 release banner variant of the kind seen here, it would simply need reformatting:
http://fedoraproject.org/static/images/banners/f12release.png
We should probably add, "Get it now" to the banner. Alternately, we could go with a different, more general 4-Foundations clover and add an appropriate call to action. In any case, the banner would link to http://fedoraproject.org.
We need this done soon so we can have the ad hosted throughout the month of January. Our apologies for the short notice!
Thanks, Josh (for the Board)

I opted to go with the quicker/easier F12 concept. If we want to revisit a more general Fedora one under a less pressing timeframe, can you open a separate ticket for that?
