I don't know what this is coming up blue. The colors are completely distorted.

I really admire the simplicity of your poster. It says exactly what it needs to say, contains appropriate imagery, and has all the necessary information for the event too. I don't know what color its supposed to be, but I actually do like the blue that's coming up. The spacing works well for the proportions of your objects and the tilt of the baseball makes it more dynamic than it would have been if the stitching was straight on. This poster could have turned out overly conceptual, but I think you hit the ball out of the park ;)

I like the way that the baseball appeared so big and bold against the blue background. I like the way that the word "Play." is so large and is separated from the rest of the text by ending with a period and thus being it's own statement. I think it really draws you in and has an emotional impact when it is followed by the next sentence saying "so they can too." It remind you of how fragile these children's health situations are, to the point where they can't even engage in a games the way other children do. I think with nonprofits and charities emotional appeal is often a very successful tactic. I was really attracted to this poster as I scrolled down
the page and I think if I were walking across campus it would catach my attention.
