						| greetings! 
 been working on a flyer for one of our events later this year and was looking for some helpful criticism in terms of text layout, font, spacing and even wording if possible.
 
 (eg. the 2 rows for the lineup instead of one)

 links/references to other flyers or fonts are welcome!
 
 thanks!

						| Over all i think this is great,nothing worse them getting an flyer where we cannot read a thing ,which is not your case ,as an personal opinium i would add an black stroke around main line up. Here is an free link for fonts http://www.dafont.com/

						| Nice one Yidam, I my self never try yet doing a flyer ever. I like the void view in the alien eyes. Also the center grey light with the wave. Clean work and readable (most point of flyers and cd cover). If I am you, I will make all text in same font (maybe different size, style and colors), just to avoid the clash with the artwork which already killer. yeah contrashed aura/stroke/outline around the text will make it come out to the front.              founder http://www.enkienterprise.com founder http://www.blacksheephybrid

						| much thanks for the feedback  The stroke was a good idea Gaialau... makes it look cleaner 
 and thank you for those words daya... they mean a lot. trying to find a balance between readability and the sci-fi look of the header. will play around with it for a bit and post again sometime soon.

						| shukriya daya  used photoshop 7.0 for this one. if you disregard concept, it's all really simple photoshop tricks to make things look 3D... mostly smudging, beveling, gaussian and motion blur filters.
