Is there a poster that I can download and put on my layout that says :-

Owned by a member of the N Gauge Forum

?

Great idea, Tim.
I don't believe we have one available but I'm sure one of our IT savvy guys could make you one up.
Scotsoft is pretty good at such things

Sounds like great idea

Hi Tim,

I would be happy to give your poster a go if you are happy for me to try.

Are you after the NGF logo with your text to one side
or
The NGF logo with the text either above or below it.

I could supply it in a Word document or as a JPG file, the choice would be yours.

cheers John.

I would look for something A5 portrait with the NGF Banner underneath some text.

Here are two I have knocked up quickly

cheers John.

Think I prefer the 2nd one.

Cheers

I was asked before about this and then forgot.

I'll make some different sizes at the weekend. Thanks for what you've done Scotsoft.

What about suitably modifying actual railway posters?

(needs scaling for N Gauge)

I like the idea, but who has the copyrights for the originals?!

In theory a lot of them would be out of copyright by now. Depending on when they were designed. And as long as we're not selling them (ie it's just for personal use) I suspect it wouldn't be too much of a problem.

Would need to do the poster hacking a bit better than my quick effort though

That one almost looks fine except it should say "2mm Scale Association". N gauge people don't lay track properly !

Needs to be GWR to be perfect!

Aahhh EP,

If it was the 2mm SA it would be "Lay track accurately" we all lay track "properly"
