Hi, In this case we may have a look to e-cards sending via a recently promoted web site. (gnomeplanet,gnomejournal...).
All e-cards could be freely snedable, and we could image somethings like four square visual in single page. As is we could have 1 visual for "Merry XMas and Happy NY", 1 for a dedicated personnal e-message, 1 for general Gnome Message, and one randomly Gnome Application Focused. As is, sponsors have "luxurious" paper cards, and all GNOME lovers can freely promote our project. @++ Athos10 Selon Luis Villa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On 9/12/05, Claus Schwarm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > I don't know about other parts of the world but in Germany it is quite > > common to sent christmas cards to customers, friends, relatives, etc. > > > > The first company I worked for used christmas cards produced by a > > charity foundation, for example.
