Hello Martin,

It would probably be best to have a rough copy of the ad in any format
our Macs can cope with (they _usually_ manage with eps, but you might
want to
send a tiff or jpeg as well, just in case) - along with the text and pic(s)
as separate files. We'll put it together ourselves for the different sized
slots we're likely to have.
I'll send the finished product to anyone who wants to see it, in case there's
anything critically wrong with what we produce. However we're extremely 
unlikely to have time for minor aesthetic tinkering ;-/

We've taken a copy of the ad at 
http://briscoe-smith.org.uk/charles/debian-ad.html
to play with (Thanks Charles - I like the "give it a whirl" slogan),
but would like to hear other opinions.
