Nominating NA Community DVD - cover art

Hi Craig,

Thanks and you aren't late at all, in fact I'd been looking at that (the
slogan font) and thinking along the same lines, that it needed changing.

So - one last (maybe) tweak(s):

- Reduced number of fonts
-- Front and Back cover
- opened up the curve in scatter patter on front cover
- lightned background w/ slight tint change
- added more white space around logos
- softened the shadows by 1/2 under module icons
-- asking for a dispensation on the branding guidelines for this
- offset version designator

and looking at that it looked enough to merit the full print ready
version to the wiki. [ where it goes back to being a version of
alt-3.png ]

I think it's a winner?

Thanks

Drew

They did seem a bit thick. Nice touch to add them in the first place

-- asking for a dispensation on the branding guidelines for this

Why do we need this?

- offset version designator

You're correct, it doesn't need centering.

I like it. Thank-you for making the other changes, btw (logos, text).

Why aren't we using the slogan "Freedom never tasted so suite"? I'm reminded
of this after watching Italo's presentation. The consistent font looks much
cleaner.

Cheers,

LOL - you know ... 9a might be on the way...I don't why I bastardized
that slogan..
