LGM Pledgie campaign site. We have media sponsors lined up that will<br>
give us free impressions, we just need "the creative."<br>
<br>
The specs so far include:<br>
<br>
LinuxPro: Banner 468 x 60<br>
LinuxPro: Skyscraper 160 x 600<br>
--<br>
LinuxJournal: Banner 728x90<br>
--<br>
Text ads for LWN:<br>
Title field: 48 characters<br>
Body field: 120 characters<br>
<br>
In all three, we can link to an URL (which in the text ad does not count<br>
against our character limit); we'll use the Pledgie URL.<br>
<br>
There are more to come, but we need something for these ASAP. Best idea<br>
is to coordinate, so that we use the same design motifs for all three --<br>
makes for a more unified campaign blitz and makes it easier to adapt the<br>
artwork to varying sizes rather than start from scratch. Obviously on<br>
the text ad, we'd want to use the same message.<br>
<br>
Please submit a design (or three!) to the issue tracker at<br>
<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413</a><br>

Comment #5 (<br>
<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413/comments/5" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/create-project/+bug/744413/comments/5</a> ) lists<br>
the specs again for reference.<br>
<br>
Things to keep in mind: these media sponsors are (so far) all Linux /<br>
FLOSS sites; the know the projects and so do the readers. They may,<br>
however, be more receptive to the campaign if we focus on the fact that<br>
all funds go towards developer travel, and that the event is a<br>
collaborative effort. But don't camp out on that; any and all ideas are<br>
welcome.<br>
<br>
We'd like to launch the campaigns by Friday, so please submit art work<br>
between now and Thursday.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Nate<br>
