Re: Fwd: Huge Ubuntu Poster design.

 

Alright, people! :)


I have skimmed down the PSD as much as I could without losing ability to
translate. The file is now easy to understand, and takes less than 400mb.
Sorry about the massive size, but there ya are. The file now only fills up
450mb in RAM, which is a big change from the 1.1gb it previously did.

I have updated links in the folder on my site, please update yours if you
have linked anything. All files can be found at
www.nox-hand.com/docs/ubuntuposter/

There is the PSD, a full PNG and JPG export, a smaller preview version and a
thumbnail in JPG.


I shall have a look at the DIY Ubuntu site and see if I can't get some info
added about this poster so it's accessible there, and then we can add it to
the SpreadUbuntu site when it goes online.


Hope you will enjoy the poster :)
