Hmmm, I like the overall feel of it, but there are some things I have to point out. The text is pretty small, and in turn pretty hard to read. That little sun over the picture seems to fit the leaflet, but isn't overly attractive. I'd sugget maybe enlarging it a lot, and changing it to white, then taking the opacity down quite a bit and using it as a background on the purple. Sort of making it look like a Japanese sun design. If it's done it's pretty bare, but if it isn't I won't comment on that.
Its not totaly finished, which is why I'm asking for some help here. :)
I didn't mention in the first post, but its basicly an A5 leaflet with a fold down the middle. The right is the front cover and well the left, being the back; I agree it's bare but couldn't really think what else to include on that page. I might take you up on the suggestion of overlaying the logo; will have to play about with it some more.
I'm not too concerned about text sizes, because this was only intended as a preview thumnail, its been scaled down by about 50% which explains the poor legability of text. When I can scrounge some paper togeather I'll have to make some proofs... If I can be bothered I will complete the inside pages, but at this stage thats very debatable.
I don't know if your misinterpreting me or it's the other way around. Thought I'd clarify, that "It isn't finished"... but thats a "No" I won't be totaly remaking the layout, but if you want to comment on the existing one feel free, unless it's something irrelevant.
It looks like unfunished especially in the bottom part. It just cuted out. And I didn't see any navigation there. I love colors, very nice balance but the layout is too simple I think.
Lol, I'll have to place some text on the front saying "Please open page..." :roll: , and secondly *Slaps Blaze* :P for not reading the whole theread y'a lazy. . . on the more realistic side, I could add a page curl effect ? I'm getting the imperssion I should really add something more substantial to the back; so will do.
Here's the original design the college currently uses just incase your interested.
I'm still waitin' for SE to reply, :wink: considering he's learning DTP in more depth than Multimedia people.
(Sim: In terms of bandwidth I'm sure I can fix up some aspects of your sites in return.)
Bandwidth? You shouldnt be worrying about that, unless sim is giving you a 100MB bandwidth heheh!
Now back to the topic, why a page curl on the back? Its not feasible since people open it from the front! ;) And yes, your design looks better than the existing one!
It would be on the front, bottom right corner... Just an idea Blaze seemed to make me happen upon; even if I don't use it I'll still get marks for the ideas etc.

I think it's very nicely done all in all.
Good design, the fonts/typeface are looking good for once ;) The design needs more info though, cos at the moment it looks more like a website :idea:
Colour wise, its got a good balance - is this the finished product?

Thanks for the feedback. 8)
If you call it totally finished, then i guess mine opinion of total remaking of the layout wont make sence.

Heheh i knew someone was gonna make that mistake! Cos it does look very much like a website layout ;)
BlaZe this is a leaflet, not a site design!
