Hi, I am up for this task as I'm back again from a bout of illness.
Also here is my feedback for the discussion that has being going on
for designs related to FUDCon Pune.

* Henna design seems good on corners on poster (I'd remove it
nevertheless if everyone dislikes) but is not advisable on T-shirts.
Neither will a building look good on it.

* The T-shirt ideas need some more love. I'd like to have a slogan at
back with some simple design on front. I can create some mockups if
required.

* Mizmo's poster's seems perfect to me with most of the info present.
I'll make some changes to it, share and if OKed by all, run some test
prints here with a printer. I'd have loved the '0' in 2011 I did in
the past versions to be present somewhere. It's mean a lot to us as
its the 'spoked wheel' we have in our flag :)

I'm happy that the logo with henna crown is accepted :) and will
continue with banner designs from now on.

Rahul gave some feedback on my suggestions too [1]. I'll continue to
do #3, #4 and #5 below on Mo's list if everyone is ok with [2].

Also, does a FUDCon needs to have only one 'official' poster design or
we can release more than one? I'd like one more to catch the local eye
here with more popular architectures here such as this one [3]

Hi Suchakra!

I like the wallpaper, but I'm not sure about the -O-pen (don't know what
that circle means) I'm not completely happy with it, but you made the
background and font-color work just perfect :D

About have several posters, I don't see why not; FUDcons (and communities)
are open just to let creativity in all ways flow. Even so, I would remind
that like we are talking about a single event, try to have at least a 40-60%
of equality on arts (you don't want people to think that we're talking about
several events)

Now, about arquitechture, I was trying to use the Shaniwar Wada to make a
graphic like the one Milan has with the Piaza So I guess use local places
would be a huge +1. Even so, try to remark even more photos of the event
location; so people match event with a place.

See ya!!
