yea im in.. ill start on it after i go have a shower gl everyone

heres wot ive got so far, let me know wheather im on the right lines.

Ooo I'm in, duffters your wasting space imo(but I'm not the judge )

Thanks for the entry duffters, it's a little crowded as Stephen mentioned. The colours aren't bad (looking for abit more colour though) The women/bloke are cut off at the top and tbh the women looks like a porn star lol.

On the right track though, it's a nice start just needs to be brighter and i'd lose the images. Nice idea with the laptop showing tf though...perhaps that can be explored further. Ultimatly we don't have much space and it needs to have as much information as possible without overcrowding.

If I manage to find the time, count me in...

Good Luck to everybody else though

I like the laptop idea great work, i may make something if i get time.

theres another try, wot u think?

i think the colours are dull .. keep it up tho..

It's better than the first concept, but the colours do leave a little to be desired. Check out what Nat did for me here http://www.talkfreelance.com/728.gif that is the sort of colour/image I want to put across.

The design doesn't flow very well, the text is overlapping the laptop which seems to be floating in mid air. The typography also needs some work, it's not as sharp as I would like and especially considering this is for a print publication, the text is crucial.

Work on the text and bring in some brighter colours, also try not dividing the image up with lines and such, there isn't any real need. I would prefer a high res image of an attractive women/man to a laptop ideally, we want to put across that we're a freindly community of young aspiring freelancers

Cheers! Looking forward to your improvements.

Well I would put in an entry but I don't know about working with .PDF files.
