The last thing I posted on Blogist was about these posters meant to promote npTribune, the Student Voice of Ngee Ann Polytechnic, as the newspaper which networks friends and keeps everyone updated.
By the way, good news: We’re down to the last 150 copies of npTribune. The other 2,850 flew off the shelves within a week, and we replenished supplies at the School of Business twice, at the Library twice too, thrice at the Centre for Professional Development, and multiple times at the School of Film & Media Studies.
I asked the mypaper designers to give advice, and they said it was pretty good - except that the longer stories should be cut down even more, and the same thing over-and-over: tidbits, not long stories. People hate long stories.

Ivan helped with the English copytext, Gladys and Hui Ting did the same with the Chinese characters. Should I leave the hanyu pinyin or remove it to reduce the number of elements on the page?

Lol. Integrate the hanyupinyin into the BIG Chinese characters. Play with it abit and dun make it so obvious. Like look real close then can see it’s there, that kind of illusion. =)
