Don't know if this is even in the correct forum but heck, this looks like the creative forum so I'll show it off here. I was on an urban exploration trip to an abandoned asylum on 23rd June and I took this picture of an old zimmer frame. This past time often gives me a good heap of inspiration and after uploading and looking through my images, I thought up the following idea:

There's nothing like a walk amongst the wreckage and ruins to get the cogs in your brain working again. [lol]

Neat. I didn't realize that those things were called zimmer frames; I just always called them walkers.

Neat concept

Thanks. ;) perhaps they are not called zimmer frames in US? That's what we call them here in UK anyways.

Agreed it's a nice concept but whoever designed the flyer obviously is messing with people that have red-green color blindness.

Was it an insane asylum?

I never thought about that side of things. Thanks for pointing it out to me. What colours do you recommend I use instead? I don't know any colour blind folks so I overlooked that side of things.

Was it an insane asylum?

That it was...built in 1910, openeed in 1913 and closed in 1997. I've had recurring dreams about being an inmate for years so I figured that I should go check out a real one. ;)

I have e-mailed it over. Perhaps Zoolander could suggest decent colours? I really don't have much awareness of how things are for colourblind folks.
