Working on more. Having a tough time finding good, clear photos off the net.

Wow!!! These fliers are beautiful, tedbragg!!!

Except that I think John Crichton is spelled "John Crichton" and not "John Crighton". If this is going to be an official flyer or ad, you might want to correct that ;)

These are excellent! Just one tiny thing; Crichton is mis-spelled on the Aeryn one but other than that they are gorgeous. Waiting for the D'Argo one, myself. Thanks, Ted. :aok:

Wow. These are amazing! If only The Channel Formerly Known as SciFi could have advertised the show like this! :aok:

One tiny nitpick, from what I can see, you spelled Crichton wrong (Crighton?). Maybe I can't see it properly because it's small.

I'd ask you for the PDF file, but living in Canada, me encouraging people to watch the show on SciFi would do no good. :(

Hegemon - even though you live in Canda, it would tell the space channel that this show is something that people want

Ted, these are GREAT! they're beautiful. One thing you may want to do is mention that it will be on in January, since it's not on right now (:grr: it should be on now, but no, they don't) and people who get the flyer may get confused when they tune in and it's not on...

Yeah, but I think it would be more useful as a flyer to hand out to people up here if it had the time that Space was airing the show, Jul. I think some of the Toronto rally folks are making those flyers already though. :)

Hmmmm, and in the Aeryn ad, isn't 'carreer' spelt with only one 'r'. I may be wrong, I'm not a good speller myself.

But these are really great. I'm amazed by the creativity a lot of Scapers have. :aok:

Hegemon, find out when SPACE CHANNEL airs Farscape, grab their logo or typestyle for me and I'll make you a Canadian version.

I'm TRYING to find Season 4 photos (not screen grabs, but hi-res--150dpi or higher) so I can make ads that are 'current'.

Too bad Illusrtator doens't have spell check. I just noticed "career"...

When does Sci-Fi USA begin the eps? Jan 3rd? 12th?

But how about a little eye candy for the wimmin? Hmm? [grin]

WOW!!!!!!! GREAT JOB, and I agree if Scifi, had promoted the show in such a way, it would probably have hit top rating.

hell, these are good enough to USE perhaps, in newspaper ads!

I know, I know ... some are going to bring up the copywrite issue here.

However, I'm sure that there MUST be a number of 'Fair Use' Pics out there of the cast and show that could be used.

I saw in another thread, about a State Newspaper that printed an interview with a fellow 'Scaper about Farscape and the Save Farscape Campaign, that used some of the Images, and I'm sure they didn't go and ask for permission, but used some 'fair use' pics instead as part of the article.

We could do the same IMO.

The Aeryn one is simply beautiful. And the Chiana one is great too, but you should change the (*very VERY white) to something more like (*actually more of a grey)

Very nice! One small tweak - career is misspelled in the Aeryn one. Otherwise, they're lovely! Although I agree that some eye-candy for those of the feminine persuasion would be nice.

Here's one I did for the Indianapolis rally (that the frelling tornado stopped me from going to)

It's the wanted posters with the text from the original Atlanta fliers.

I haven't been able to get the rally flyers from the rally site to load; do you guys have any tips? I'd really like to get the NYC one, so I could post it around campus along with the ones I've already got.
