Guys, Jos pinged me a week ago about taking the cube or my cheat sheet and making it into a poster. I am done with the first draft like a little input. I have ask Helen to add a bit of art to it.

It's very informative, good work. It would be easier on the eyes if the boxes formed by the elements lined up a bit better, and fewer font sizes were used - I see you're aiming to fit everything in. The cheat sheets I have tacked to the wall here use a column layout with topics that don't fit on one column flowing into the next, allowing a more efficient use of space - there aren't any large areas of whitespace where no subject 'box' fits.

Hi Chuck, very nice work. Here is my constructive suggestions / hints / opinion: * The lower box titled "Using the Shell " might be right justified with the "zypper box". * In the box "Community Resources" is the link "Lizards" displaced. * The gray frame of "openSUSE Community Resources" is not at the bottom left- justified. * OpenSUSE is not written with a small o? I'm not sure. But I would not like to start a fundamental discussion about it. To me it does not really matter. :) Thank you for this nice poster. I think I'm going to a printshop and let me print on A1. Greetings Jan Am Dienstag, 18. Januar 2011, 10:40:16 schrieb Chuck Payne:

Awesome! And Helen is telling me she's all over it to add some nice artwork to it, really cool. As reminder, we're going to get about 50.000 posters out to readers of linux magazine, double-side printed. One side should have this cheat sheet, one side a cool 11.4 poster. Robert will take care of the final layout and sending it to linux magazine...
