Canadian Troops out of Afganistan

I was wondering what all of you thought of this flyer I made, I am open to any suggestions on how to make it better.

Thats pretty good.

Whether the picture of Che is needed is open to question, but overall good and straight to the point.

Chaotic, too busy and without form. Looks like you dumped some easy to get graphics down to dress up a boring flyer. Dull font use and no color.

Personally I think it's reasonably good, it doesn't go OTT with some stupid fucking font like some people do (Antifa in North West England for example), it has a pic of Che (usually gets people interested, they often want to know more about him/his beliefs) and it's to the point.

Few problems though. If you're attempting to appeal to apolitical people or those unfamiliar with terms such as 'imperialism' then they're likely to show very little interest, I think the best material usually has some form of explanation for the ordinary man who probably isn't familiar with extreme leftist politics.
Also, Afghanistan is spelt wrongly.

Get rid of Che and the fist while making your text smaller.

I agree (with one slight change though)...get rid of the Che pic
And also get rid of the hammer and sickle, it turns alot of ppl off
I would leave the fist, maybe make it a lil bigger and use it as a background
The rest is okay (whether u leave the "class war..." statement is up to u)

thanks for all the input

1. fix the spelling of afghanistan
2. possibly use fist as background
3. possibly take out the che pic ( I cant think of a pic to replace it, any suggestions)
4. use a better font

Forget the Che pic or any pic to replace it, the fist is enough :D

Personally I like the Che pic, it usually seems to get people interested.

I like where the fist and the hammer and sickle are, and the font isn't bad either. As for replacing the Ché flag, maybe some kind of peace symbol or the Canadian and Afghan flags?

Also, what's with the seemingly random capitalization?
e.g. "Imperialism Will not Bring Peace" and "Fight Against war and Capitalism".
If there is reason for this then pardon my observation, but I think unfounded capitalization looks very unprofessional.

Other than that I think it's a great flyer, well done!
