“While I have your attention, we have a whole set of graphic design tasks related to the conference that we desperately need volunteers for. Dressing up the conference web site in a few areas, designing a few printed pieces for the conference, creating advertisements for use by media partners, etc. It’s all relatively minor stuff, but not something you want people like me doing :-). So I’m hoping we can get a couple of designers to step up.”

Wow you didn’t milk the graphic design community enough by asking for a FREE logo? NOW you want free advertising collateral designed for you? Hmmmm…how about you come up and take some pictures for me. I have EXACTLY what I need in my mind and once you take them. I won’t pay…or how about you develop a whole marketing plan for me and I’ll have you volunteer your time for that too?
