Promotional Posters for Open Source and Linux?

Posted by Cliff on from the covering-your-walls dept.

SysKoll asks: "I belong to an LUG (Linux Users Group) and I am trying to increase the visibility of Linux and Open Source for the general public. I googled for several hours and I noticed that almost nobody seems to offer Linux and OSS promotional posters anymore. (I already have the 'Good evening Mr Gates, I'll be your server tonight' giant Tux poster). So do you have a recommendation for OSS and Linux posters, preferably suitable for the general public?"

    It would be good if an artist could make some professional looking poster/flier advertisements of Linux in general (not a specific distribution). Microsoft and other companies all have very professional looking propaganda, I'd like some of our own :)

    You can get posters from OpenBSD online shop. 9 very cool posters for OpenBSD/OpenSSH - the artwork is superb. It's a shame that there wasn't a poster for the 2.6 release's "Script Kitty & fish bowl" art... by far the best ever.

    Hi! Check out all the posters at the OpenBSD Website .

    You'll be financing the best OSS in the world and will help Theo forget the Darpa Grant.

    The NetBSD Advocacy page has some posters available for print-it-yourself.
