[/quote] The email can be [EMAIL PROTECTED] ! Since that's my registered email at the ILUGD. had changed to the hotmail one because i was being blocked by outblaze, for whatever reason, but now back again. However, if we need the poster by the 11th, we need to be a little quick with the idea part. I will enquire the price for the cloth poster tomorrow mornin and post it on here. As far as printing the poster is concerned, we would not need more than 5 posters, i suppose, on our stall. Which i can print from my desktop printer gratis. Second, i will want to create a bigger poster as well, (than just A4), so that we have a main attention catcher, which i will get printed from somewhere, and i dont mind bearing the cost for it. However, i need the ideas for the content and design quickly from everybody.
