I bet there are others who could do better
It looks awesome dude !
Isn't CGB POW / POS though ? You only mention POS.
Good point patmast3r and thank you for bringing it up. With space at an extreme premium in the attention span of the average person I had to break it down to the most critical of points. To the mass public, Proof of Stake Eco-Security conveys the intended message that the security model is different than the rest and somehow more efficient. To the educated public, the phrase quickly informs them that this is a second generation crypto currency. Upon further reading, the educated public will quickly realize, if they dont already know, that CGB did rely on an inflationary Proof of Work stage which has completed leaving the PoW mining aspect secondary to PoS minting.
Yes I totally agree, the idea of such a virtual "flyer" is to attract attention, nothing more. People then have the responsibility to thoroughly inform themselves before investing. While a flyer should not straightout lie (many advertisements get darned close to it all the same), it does also not have the responsibility of telling the whole truth. Especially if parts are not left out in order to be misleading, but to simplify an otherwise elaborate subject and thus making it more easily accessible to the reader.
You are absolutely correct on this. I have been very careful to make sure that anything written is not disingenuous. For example when I say that the inflationary stage is completed, I have taken a broader look at the deployment of the currency and used the phrase to highlight a key difference in the life cycle progress of CGB compared to other crypto currencies. It is true that CGB has not reached its target 2% inflation, but with over 90% deployment, there is very little room left for CGB to come anywhere close to the inflation rates of most other crypto currencies. On this note, I am not the master source for information and I really need anyone who sees an inconsistency in our marketing campaign material to let us all know right away so that it can be corrected.

On a different note, while I do like the new flyer, I find that it is rather hard to read. The picture itself has some harsh contrasts, and together with the type layover (especially the small type across the opening of the vault) it just becomes a bit chaotic. The font colour adjusted to the background looks good, but makes reading even harder. I honestly don't really know how to easily do something about that however, the pic is just to cramped and full of contrasts to easily fit text on. A larger image section showing more wall and floor to put text would probably solve the problem.
I am very glad for your work and definitely don't mean to be discouraging, just giving some (hopefully) constructive critizism

I appreciate the feedback! The most positive comment that anyone could give to this and other advertising material is a critical assessment. You have highlighted another way that this viral concept can be interpreted. In my case I have gone for close-up visually stunning imagery to capture the imagination in hopes that they read the details on the strengths of CGB. Honestly the strengths are intended to be read after the idea of CGB as being a safe place to store your wealth has sunken in. The image is actually computer generated and the contrast was very high, lowering it would have unfortunately reduced that stunning aspect. I am not a photoshop (gimp) master but I find it enjoyable and have many other fun ideas to bust out in good time
. I invite anyone to come up with their own interpretation, the image size can be different, colors, text, its all wide open to interpretation. When you submit your masterpiece, realize that criticism is actually more useful than excited approval (although the latter provides a helpful warm fuzzy feeling). Thanks for both!
