All,
I have no problems with flag or poster inside our window, that would be in compliance with the landlords wishes. I'll work on the money for the software upgrade, perhaps there are some open source alternatives? Between Electrical and Software Upgrades we need membership to grow to 55 to 60, full members. I would like to own a SKSP flag. It's a great thing to have, Useful for public events, trade shows and meeting allied military units in training or battle, it's a tradition that goes back centuries. Besides, then we have a flag for someone who dies. Ron can say "On behalf of a grateful HackerSpace, your son/daughters/Spouse/Life Partner's sacrifice will always be remembered. Please accept this flag as thanks for his/her service from the Hackerpsace that demanded he/she make the ultimate sacrifice for".

I suspect a lockbox by our door (ideally keyed to our old lock) containing an emergency fob would be more cost effective. A flag or poster would probably be ok to display inside one if our windows.

The landlord cited our lease agreement, potential issues from Heritage/Exchange Character/City of Winnipeg By-Law and the potential for yearly sign/flag licensing fee. A potentially liability issue with the Flag, pole and assembly accumulating large chucks of ice/snow causing failure of the assembly and damage to building, or pedestrians below. The landlord requested we limit, with his permission, our cosmetic changes to inside our rented space. On a Positive note: By and large the landlord is happy with us as tenants. There have been no complaints from any of our neighbours. As a gesture of good faith, he has agreed to foot the bill for the panic bar escape for the back door. He is committed to the electrical repair of the "cut conduit" issue currently effecting the freezer and fridge. We agreed to deal with the Kitchen GFI Plug issue as soon as we can get Soma to execute the work. Please be aware that we leased the space (as is) so these concessions and improvements are quite noteworthy and indicative of a Landlord who values us as tenants. The Landlord has grudging accepted our Keyfob access control system on the condition that we provide quick access to his building personal in the event of an emergency. It would be very good idea if we: 1. Had the remote capability of opening our door. 2. We have the Access Control hooked to the fire alarm to open the door for emergency exit. Meeting concluded on a positive note, as he is impressed by our willingness to keep the space clean and tidy, improve the space and execute quality work on our external security system (Good Job Colin!)

It's attractive, and the text helps "explain" the logo. What about the existing white banner that's already in the space? Of the flag designs shown, I prefer the Black logo with orange on white, no text. The text is overshadowed by the size of the logo, and there's something cool and mysterious about just the logo. (though it'd be horrifically ineffective as advertising) On Tue, Mar 26, 2013 at 7:42 AM, Justin Lacko <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: ...and that you're using the correct font, right? Also I was thinking a different grey... but I'll show you later today.

But I don't think it works well to keep the text together and at only one end of the sign, looks unbalanced. For #3, imagine that I know what I'm doing in Inkscape and that the white area around the text is grey. _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/ _______________________________________________ SkullSpace Discuss Mailing List Help: http://www.skullspace.ca/wiki/index.php/Mailing_List#Discuss Archive: https://groups.google.com/group/skullspace-discuss-archive/
