My 2 cents .. is a group project but here is my input Not too word.. simple is better.. the Ron Paul Revolution should be on it in some way.. b/c that is the campaign slogan.. also a LARGE photo of Paul would be good IMO
Zip... Brevity of message and the photo as the eye catcher. You and I think alike. Zip, send money. hehehehe
:P I used to make pamphlets and ads when I worked in my former job.. too many words and people get on overload and just move on.. few words... one MAYBE two photos but thats it.. also his name needs to be LARGE for thats what is wanted NAME recognition .. and to connect the slogan to the name
Help us nominate Congressman Ron Paul! Paid for by the members of www.Freedom4um.Com. Not affiliated with the Ron Paul campaign. For more information about Ron Paul, visit his website at www.ronpaul2008.com. Here's my contribution to the idea. With a little tweaking, I think it might be good.
Good work Critter!!!
Thanks! I figure we can't get too fancy in the average newspaper. It's not like they are running an 8 color press on premium glossy stock. Simple, black and white, to the point. Some rewording may be necessary or some talking points replaced with others, but I think something like this is the best way to go.
the size of the ad we're looking at is 4x6 so we will need to keep it short and simple. i like the hillary reference very much. the text on the side may not be necessary? OI, the graphics you chose are very nice and meaningful to us, but i think the ad should include a photo of Ron Paul for those readers who may not know of him.
4X6? 4X6? What a bunch of cheap fuggers. hehehe I thought we were talking a full page here. :p
4 x 6 is about $1200 6 x 8 .........$2400
Wow, that much? Which paper?
Manchester Union Leader. New Hampshire. Sunday circulation is entire state, 250,000 copies. That translates to over 300,000 readers.

Sounds good to me. :) I'll tinker with my thing tomorrow night, make it 4X6 and incorporate the suggestions made here tonight. I'll post it for all to critique. :)
LMAO! I am old and my eyes don't like small print. So I have my browser displaying 4um in pretty large text. My layout was done with html and the large text and everything looked great, nice and even and lined up perfectly. So just now, I was fiddling with my browser text size, and when I looked at it then, it looked awful. So are you folks all blind like me using large text or were you just being kind? lmfao!
