My chum Kath was needs a banner. One of those large PVC things with holes in the corners that you can stretch across a wall advertising something. Only she needs it on the cheap.
I mentioned that I’d stumbled across a company that does them on some weblog I was reading the other day. They were apparently quick, cheap and recommended. They also were kinda ethical, doing banners for Greenpeace and other orgs.
Of course not being in the market for a banner myself I didn’t make a note and I can’t for the life of me remember which blog it was now. So I’m posting this here.
Me too, the stumbling across.. And we had one made for Mozfest. I’ll ask the crew.

They’re not ptickly cheap though. Better to make your own, if *really* cheap is in order. Big sheet from charity shop £1.50. Coloured domestic emulsion paint works very well, and is waterproof when dry. Big eyelets are about 10p each in the market. http://www.flickr.com/photos/brendadada/14538202
Or if painting lettering is difficult, buy some decals and stick onto a few of yards of pvc. Again, pvc from the market 3- 5 pounds per yard. Decals: http://quickstickers.com/designonline/ but a local Yellow Pages find one. Between 10 and 20 pounds, at a guess.
Hope that helps.
That wasn’t the one I saw (anyone else?) but it could be useful. I’ll pass it on to Kath.
Thanks!
