Overcrowding the poster with too much text or too many images
Including irrelevant information or images that do not directly relate to your topic
Using hard-to-read fonts or colors that are difficult to distinguish from the background
Placing images or graphics in areas where you need to write or take notes
Making the poster too flashy or distracting, as it may detract from the seriousness of the debate topic,  the images you include complement the text, rather than distracting from it. Avoid using images that are too abstract or difficult to understand, as well as images that are too large and take up too much space on the page. Additionally, avoid using images that will make it difficult for you to write on the page, such as images placed in the center of the page.
