There is no need to explain what you are doing step-by-step. Simply do something (or run a recorded demo) while explaining about how GIMP is free and open. Ideally, base the demonstration on a picture captured with a digital camera on-stage, and turn it into a Linux advertisment in real time. That way people will know you really did it in real time (you can make a script to do the whole process automatically if short on time). > > > > 2. Designing Static HTML with WebMetaLanguage.
