Banner.... thoughts?

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 11:26 am

I just had a company offer us a 50% discount on a banner for the Dj desk. He said as an example, a 1m x 2m banner would cost $90... what do we think? We'll have to let them know so we can get it made on time.

would be good to get a melbournebeats.com one made... but i dont think a beats.aid one would be worth the trouble

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 11:28 am

we just need to cover the cost... would 1m x 2m be the right size?

Post by **breaksRbest** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 11:29 am

I agree, we could use the Melbourne Beats one in the future

yeah. a melbohbeats one would be more beneficial...

i can lay it out (up?) today if you need.

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 11:43 am

So am I going to get this company to make it? Only problem is I can't afford this on my own, as much as I'd like to. We need to find the money somewhere. And I need to know if the 1m x 2m is the right size... as in, will it do?

Ani,

Is this a once off only deal??? I need one done... if they can make me a Kombat Bass one like this let me know the phone number :

Fents, I think it may be a one off because he said he can do half price because it was a benefit gig. The company name is signwave (signwave.com.au).

OK, I am going to tell him to go ahead with the banner, because I have to go out and the event is in two days- I can't leave this til tomorrow. I will put up as much money as I can, but it would be wonderful (and is desperately needed!) if some of you kind people can help me out? I'm sorry to ask but I simply can't afford it on my own....

As the highest poster on melb.beats, I will chip in for the poster for melb.beats. I'll come say hello on Firday Ani, unless you live in the Fitzroy area? PM if you like.

I think AgentOrange is in the lead.

Yeah, Ani I take it back, I'm not chippin in any more...

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 4:54 pm

Gee, thanks guys....

The banner is being made. A MelbourneBeats one... 2.5m wide, little less then a meter tall.

I really can't afford this on my own, so either we do what we are doing with the cd's or I cancel the order. I need some feedback here.

Post by **lynt** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 4:55 pm

Happy to help Ani.

Ani · Post by **Ani** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 5:01 pm

It's a company in sth Yarra conviently enough, so I'll pick it up friday. I'll be dropping a deposit off tomorrow or Friday.

just got another email about the banner.... it is now going to cost $75 (+GST), and will have eyelets for us to string it up. The dimensions are:

650mm (H) x 2500mm (W)

Can someone let me know if this will be ok for the dj desk (width mainly)? (Approx... so I can give the go ahead). Thanks!

quick · Post by **quick** » Wed Jan 12, 2005 5:17 pm

Of couse I'll chip in I said I would, my last post was a joke, like Lynts one was (i hope

).

Should be fine Ani, I'm sure we can improvise if not. 2.5 meters by 65 cms.. yeah laughing.

Cheers guys! (and quick, thanks for chipping in, and I have also put you on cd sales... check the thread, thanks!!)

I'll post off the confirmation to the company

Once again I have good news. This last week and a half has been GREAT! Someone is smiling down on us.

No need for us to chip in for the banner. A guy at work was asking how plans were and I mentioned (in conversation) that the only thing we had to chip in for were the cd's and banner. He asked how much, and said that he was going to donate anyway, so handed me $100. So that'll cover the banner, the rope to put it up, and a receipt book. Any leftovers go in the bucket!
(EDIT: It'll probably buy the bucket too).

Let me hear you all say YAY FOR BARRY!!!
