If you know the bag/bolso/bossa industry or you know someone in it, read this through. On Thu, 2006-04-06 at 14:49 +0200, Quim Gil wrote: > Any ideas about the bags to be given to participants? Yesterday I saw the light!!! I was thinking of something with a local hint. Well, if you have been in Barcelona / Catalonia / Spain into political activism, university alternativism and other like lefty -isms you have seen these really simple shoulder/messenger bags made of clothe with almost nothing, just a rectangle where you can put like a phone guide and perhaps a sandwich (aka un bocata y una libreta). I haven't found them because they were (are?) so normal that nobody took a picture of them. ;) But they look like something between http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://nikkishell.typepad.com/photos/finished_objects/img_1144.JPG&imgrefurl=http://nikkishell.typepad.com/photos/finished_objects/img_1144.html&h=666&w=500&sz=135&tbnid=KBPeHhiSHovzFM:&tbnh=136&tbnw=102&hl=en&start=251&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dmessenger%2Bbag%2B%26start%3D240%26svnum%3D50%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN (but plain cottom cheap clothe) http://www.marspec.net/surplus/product.asp?s%5Fid=0&dept%5Fid=3016&pf% 5Fid=PAAAAANLLLBBNEPA& (in fact this is pretty cool because it's da real thing) or http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/Multifunctional-Canvas-and/p/2000000003890/3000000179011/bg/1001703254.htm (without the metal/plastic parts) Got it? Ok, then change the color-texture of the bag and make it blue jeans! (something like http://www.globalsources.com/gsol/I/Shoulder-Bag-Made/p/2000000003890/3000000179011/bg/1001679771.htm It's a GUADEC & tango friendly color. On the top of it the GNOME/GUADEC logo and the rest of stuff in white. Catalonia has a tradition in clothe design and textile industry, so I bet it's not difficult to find who could produce some hundreds of those for a non-expensive price (*)... if you know which doors to knock. (*) Sure it will cost more than the average cheap conference bag, but a) they would be great marketing tools because people will love it (my partner says she wants one because she loves the GNOME foot) and b) we could produce some more and sell them in the conference, just to cover the expenses. -- Quim Gil /// http://desdeamericaconamor.org | http://guadec.orgAttachment: signature.asc
