Hi All, I was just wondering if anyone has taken this up. If not, I'd like to volunteer our marketing guy to have a go at sorting this out (he's pretty good with this stuff).
Any ideas for designs can be sent directly to him (he's cc'd on this email). When we get some designs and prices, we'll stick them up on a web page so that people can have a look. Btw - Know it's been said a few times already, but ... Great User Conference in Vienna - many thanks to the organizers :-) Cheers, Rich.
