Senior Shirt Design

[quote=RamenL]And what if he put another shitty color and wasted more time, what if he fail centered it. Yaya, Im great, dont flatter me babe :D D/w Jeff I like u, a lot of people hate me, but I am not of this world. So its k![/quote]

[quote=Nyoike][quote=JEFFY40HANDS] The text feels out of place and awkward to me. As well the font is underwhelming. Granted Text isn't my strong suit. I'd either frame the mascot by putting your type above and below the image as half circles. Does that make sense? Or outside of the wings still following their curve (underneath the wing span). Inside the negative space of the wings just makes it too distracting for me and doesn't allow the shape or meaning of the words to come across unmolested. It just looks out of place. I like the design that was chosen, miss the background somewhat but it keeps the image simple. However what type of print process are you going with? If the image is going to be raised (as in you can feel it with your hands) or is it going to be flush with the shirt? Because that will dictate how much cleaning up you'll have to do. Overall I like what you've got going. As long as you're pleased with the end result that is all that matters. ^_^ [/quote] Yeah, I'll monkey with the text some more, and we were thinking just flush with the shirt. [rule] And @Ramen, your faith in me is what gives me strength... [/sarcasm][/quote]

[quote=RamenL]Try what I showed u :D[/quote]

[quote=Samoh]Don't try it, I guarantee it will only destroy everything you've tried. Even though RamenL is the master of everything, clearly.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]I think the font should be something a little more exciting, and I agree the angle should follow the shape of the wings. I like the colors a lot and feel the need to point out that this design is FAR better than anything we had on our shirts. ALSO: I figured out a way to make a straight-on drop shadow for text that you should be able to easily replicate in PS. [img]http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/4119/dropshadowsample.png[/img] It doesn't really matter now, but here's what I did: I made a solid black clipping mask of the text (you also could just duplicate the text layer and change the color to black, I guess) and put a gaussian blur on it.[/quote]

[quote=Nyoike]Mkay, thx for the help with that Nameless, I used to do that in GIMP, but was unable to in PSE8 due to it snapping, even when I didn't have that feature on. And as for the font, I'll take a look, so far that is the one we liked the best. And Ramen, I'll pass on trying that, I don't really like it all that much.[/quote]

[/quote] Also, Nameless, do you know a good font that would work well with this? I've been looking but meh, not much I find interesting and would work. Preferably freeware or free for commercial use to be on the safe side. Not planning on selling but just wanna be safe.[/quote]
