Drupal is used by a wide variety of high-profile websites because of its flexibility the customization it allows. Perform research into some of the major types of sites that Drupal is being used for, and compile a small promotional booklet (3-5 pages) in Word or OpenOffice format showcasing screenshots of sites by type, highlights of particular pieces of functionality and why Drupal is a good fit, and so on. Also talk about the open source philosophy and why a solution makes sense for various types of businesses/non-profits. This task will be complete when booklet has been posted to the Drupal Marketing group at http://groups.drupal.org/marketing-drupal for review and approved by one member of the group. Estimated time: 3-5 days |

@munit5, I would say that it's up to you on what toolset you'd like to use. @mbossino, the task is yours, since you were the first person to respond with "I claim this Task". @munit5 again, we'll come up with another couple brochure-style tasks with a little better descriptions and feel free to claim one of them instead. :)

Hi Angie, I have completed the brochure but the school's firewall is blocking large uploads. I'll have to make a trip to Starbucks tomorrow to use their unfiltered wireless connection! :) I hope that is alright? Thanks, Max |

Margh! Curse those rotten firewalls. ;) Yep, that sounds great. It could also potentially be Drupal filtering out large file uploads, depending on how large it is; in that case, try either uploading here or, if all else fails, a service like rapidshare.com, which has worked ok for some of the folks working on videos. |

The brochure was made in Apple's Pages application and the images were made with Adobe Fireworks (Macromedia Fireworks 8), which uses layered PNGs. I have exported the brochure as a .DOC, but I must warn that the exporting process did lose some of the markup and changed the layout! If possible, please open the original .pages source file (zipped) in iWork 08's Pages. All of the source images are included inside the layered PNG file. Finally, the exported brochure is available in PDF format. If there is any way I can help improve this brochure in the future, please let me know! It's been a real pleasure working on it. :) |
