A couple of quick suggestions.
1) Never used different colors/fonts for "Postgre" & "SQL", it just
confuses people.
2) I think the poster is too "wordy". You should probably try cutting
back to just bullet points rather than having paragraphs of text.
3) On the flyer, you need to put the name "PostgreSQL" somewhere on the
page so that folks know what the flyer is referring to. Also listing the
website, www.postgresql.org, might be a good idea.
Thats a good start, I'm sure others will chime in who do shows more
often like Josh and Peter.
