Here is ze Oregon Fanforce flyer that Eric wanted posted. We can work on redesigning it and making changes where we want.

P.S. I totally looked up "flyer" at dictionary.com because the spelling suddenly baffled me. Though the boards say that my spelling is wrong, it's actually the more correct version.

 

Thanks Larena_Jade! for posting this up. Vengeance came up with this a long time ago. I've been making copies of it over and over and putting them out at the Portland Comic Book Show each time I went. I finally scanned it into my pc and emailed it to people I had addresses for.

Let's redesign the Flyer with new wording, O.F.F. logo, theforce.net site, whatever. Then post up your design and we can vote on the best one. This Flyer will be handed out at various Comic Book stores, the Portland Comic Book Show, and it will be available for every member to make their own copies so they can pass it out where ever they go.

This will be our O.F.F. "advertising" and since it will be representing the Star Wars trademark and copywrite, it needs to have these markings: Star Wars logo tm, (c), and LFL All Rights Reserved statement in small print somewhere on the Flyer. Look at any Star Wars packaging, adds in magazines, etc. They all heave these markings. These are Things we should have included on the first one. Next step would be for us to send it off to Sir Steve Sansweet of LFL, Director of Fan Releations for approval. These are important so that we can be legit. Also, anything else that gets made/manufactured for the O.F.F. (ie. T-Shirts, stickers, etc.)with the Star Wars logo needs all of these very important markings somewhere on it.

So let's get to work on a New O.F.F. Flyer.

Flyer looked pretty good. Now, where is it going to be placed so that people see it?

 

We do have a dedicated website still, don't we? That would be an option.

- Bill

 

The Flyer could be put on there. Where's our new designs people!!!
Plus, if a new Flyer gets approved, we could have them to hand out at the Clone Wars Movie premire Aug.15th, and get more members.

 

Cloud City Garrison is in the process of updating their flyers as well. There was a proposed idea (based on what another garrison is doing) of having one flyer that features the local 501st garrison, Rebel Legion Base and the FanForce. In our case that would be Cloud City Garrison, Kashyyyk Base and Oregon FanForce.

Would this be something that would interest anyone from this group, having one flyer to feature all the Star Wars groups in the area?

Of course there isn't any designed yet, but I was just pitching the idea.

Nice job, guys!

If anyone wanted to send me a small chunk of the updated flyers, we can put them out on the Fan Force table at Comic Con International next month.

 

We don't have anything made up yet, but if we do get some done in time, I am sure we can arrange something.

- Bill

 

Is anyone designing a new flyer or if you're not that creative, anyone can have some ideas for wording, a picture, etc.
Come on people! Let's make something that screams, "come join the Oregon Fan Force!"

(sorry, just had to)

 

Hey Eric, why don't you post that flier that you sent me a couple of weeks ago? Let's see how the other members like it.

- Bill

 

Ok Bill, you asked for it

Something is needed on the inside though.

-Eric

 

I like that, but it seems a bit heavily weighted toward the 501st, which takes 2/3 of the space.

 

It does seem that way. I was playing with it a little bit last night (I hope you don't mind Eric). When I get home from work today, I will play with it some more.

So far, I have moved all the Imperial content on the right side, expanded all the Rebel content on the left side and the Oregon FanForce in the upper middle. What I was thinking of doing some text information in the form of who to contact to get plugged into any of the various groups.

Thoughts?

On a side note, Eric, I just saw this pic that you posted and saw they we had pretty much the same thing in mind. Although, I didn't incorporate the Emperor on the Imperial side, I did include the catch-phrase slogans on each side - the "you're our only hope" and "we would be honored if you joined us". Great minds think alike, eh?
I will post something when I get it finished... that is if that is ok.

- Bill

 

Thanks. I made it "heavily weighted toward the 501st", because that is what I was designing it for. That latest Flyer was made as a "joint group" flyer, advertising the 3 groups. Play with it as much as you like. It was based off another 501st group's Flyer. I made it in mspaint. Now, get those creative juices flowing and see what you guys can come up with.

 

OK... so, this is what I have come up with. As far a text content, I am not really sure what else to put in the blank area (which is why I said "place other text here").

So each major group has it's own page. One side Rebel Legion, one 501st and the other for OFF.
How about it people, yay or nay?
