The first one is great, but I would drop the cheezy "computer" type font at the bottom... other than that it is super cool....

I dig the second one too... where did you get the photos ? Better check on copyrights if you plan to go big with these...

Makes me wanna strap my Nikon on my seatpost and go out shooting this weekend, or maybe my Lomo, or maybe my Holga, or maybe my Pentax 6x7, or maybe one of my Wacky polaroids... damn I really have too many cameras... why do i always have to pick the most expensive things to get into, photography, and bikes ! At least my wife understands the cameras, being a photographer as well... I'm still working on the bike thing !

That's it for now, I need a break.
:eek:

I helped with the sign one :) Go biking MeHT!!!

AWESOME !!

I am digging in late -- are these all suggestions, pick your own as you wish or are we looking for a standard brochure ?

I dig the redwood one, and the road signs are great. The signs may actually be the best of the bunch, IMHO, they are recognizable signs, have instant affinity for cycllists, and deliver the message very clearly. They also appeal to the borad spectrum of cyclists.

Any copyright issues to skirt ? I would love to get some printed professionally and wander to some local bike shops.

Hey Meht....

Those look great... I wish I had more time to do that kinda stuff at work ! instead, I just slave away working in photoshop making images for my company's online catalog... not too creative... Keep on Going !!

The photos on the first too flyers are copyrighted, the others are royaltee free.

again some wonderful work with photoshop MeHT well done :beer:

as for copyright, it is a very simple law, you do not have to register work for it to be copyrighted, if you created an original work (such as flyers) it is protected by the copyright law, someone cannot use your work for another purpose other then what you inteneded. now the chances of that happening with your flyers are rare, but if you used someones photos in creating you might want to accredit the photographer, other then that you can put the copyright logo and stuff on there without worrying as long as you are giving your work to bike forums.

A wallpaper spin-off:

Good work, Just changed that to my current wallpaper at work.

Nice job MeHT, if we're voting, I like the roadie and the high five jumpers. If we're not voting, I like the roadie and the high five jumpers.

what they didn't show in the hi-five jumpers is the landing, where--unbalanced from the hi-five--they turn the front wheel too much, fall, and skid 20 feet.

I really like flyer four - the road sign with BikeForums written at the bottom instead of on a third sign.

can you zip up a full size version of this one and maybe PM it to me ?

I would like to take it to the nearest Kinko's and see what they would charge to make full color flyers for me.

thanks for all your work - these flyers kick ass

I LOVE #2 and #4-edit. They are awesome.

Great job MeHT.

It's the same size (even then I had to enlarge photos and edit a bit to maintain quality), but the resolution is 80 pixels per centimeter. So the actual WxH is 5.85x10 cm. These are the general dimensions for the flyers, right?
:confused:

Although I am a mtb'er through and through, I would vote for #2. It is a more intense pic. Just looking at it I can feel the adrenalin and speed that the rider might be feeling going into that smooth sweeper.

I would have liked #6 if the riders were in focus. #5 is a sweet pic but I still like the action shot better.

Originally the were in focus, but the quality was awfully grainy. I can try to tweak it a bit.

If you get it in focus then it would be a draw between #1 & #6.
