Thanks, but please follow the visual guidelines and do not change the 
color and shape of Wikimania logo. So

http://benyates.info/WMPosters/Wikimania%20poster%202.pdf
http://benyates.info/WMPosters/Wikimania%20poster.pdf

are not appropiate but

http://benyates.info/WMPosters/Wikimania%20poster%20plain.pdf

is ok. You can add some colors, borders etc but not the the name 
"Wikimania" and not to the logo.

http://benyates.info/WMPosters/Flower.pdf
http://benyates.info/WMPosters/Flower2.pdf

are nice and almost fits to the visual guidelines but the so maybe this 
could be use. But the text is wrong.: Wikimania is *not* about "wikis", 
or a Wiki conference but about Wikimedia projects and free knowledge!

Wikimania is not a scientific conference. It is a community event, which 
is also open to the public and to scientists.

"WIKIMANIA will explore the forms
and ramifications of wikis—their
process, their impact, and their
future—and will draw speakers
and participants from across
the globe."

Please have a look at the CfP
http://wikimania2007.wikimedia.org/wiki/Call_for_Participation

There we wrote:

Wikimania is an annual global event devoted to Wikipedia and the other 
Wikimedia Foundation projects.  Wikimania is a place for editors and 
users of the Wikimedia projects around the globe (Wikipedia, Wikibooks, 
Wikisource, Wikinews, Wiktionary, and Wikiversity) to gather, to meet 
each other, to exchange ideas, and to report on research and projects.

We try to avoid submissions about wikis in general and will reject them 
if no relevance to Wikimedia projects, communities and free content is 
given. Please don't let people think that Wikimania is a wiki 
conference. Wikis are only the tools - the main goal is free knowledge.

Greetings,
Jakob
