    I have received this today. It came with a poster that is a PDF. I have to find some freeware to convert PDF to image file to upload it here…Will post the poster later.Hi there, we are a group actively fighting the ACC levy changes, and can you pleasecontact your network and advise them of our website http://www.bikersagainstacc.org.nz and put a link on your site? We have set it up as a resource for people wishing to take action to stop the ridiculous new ACC levies and it has submission tools, news, statistics, an events page and more.Poster.jpg

    Thanks for posting this. You could just down a screen capture programme and capture the PDF. That's quick and easy and useful for other stuff.

    There's a link to the PDF poster on the “What can you do” page of the web page you linked to. So there should be no need to convert it to an image.A direct link to the poster: http://www.bikersagainstacc.org.nz/docs/poster.pdf

    ??? And here's me thinking Portable Document File WAS an image filetype ?????The only difference when you want to grab a .pdf off the net, instead of a jpeg, gif, png or whatever, is you select "Save target as" instead of "Save image as".The poster has been set up with a very strange paper size for printing: European fanfold. Methinks the author should rethink that, in case it poses problems for some folks' printers (it prints OK on my Brother, on A4, straight out of my non-adobe pdf reader).If anyone has a particular need (wants to recolour or resize it or whatever) of a jpeg or other editable image filetype of the poster I can import the pdf into the GIMP and resave it as a ?whatever? file and email it to them.

    Tank you for your comments, all.  🙂I just wanted to add the poser to the topic for visual effect.I tried to upload the PDF poster to photobucket but they accept image files only.Anyway, it's done.

    Just been made aware of this site: http://www.theaccdisaster.net/forum/index.php looks like it might be a goer.
