phil Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Carl Do me a favour and drop me an email to phil@sidc.co.uk so I can just reply with the artwork when I get in tonight Thanks in advance
wrxmania Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 GREAT looking pictures. I especially love the AMAZING choice of username!!!! Brian
scuba dou Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Brian, Stick with us and we'll make you a star your name will be in bright lights.... at least if your sitting at a busy junction in the dark It looks damn good, I must say. All it needed was a proper user name to set the tone and was pretty sure you would not mind....
wrxmania Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Not at all - feel free!!! Looks great to me - can't wait to get it on my car. Brian
Carl Davey Posted September 3, 2004 Author Posted September 3, 2004 Images received with thanks Phil. Ok, take 7! How're we lookin' now? LEFT RIGHT And a clear .gif to give you an idea of what i'd imagine would actually be produced... Ignore the white border around the URL in the image above - it's near unavoidable when you save to .gif format. I think the writing on the SIDC logo is a little fussy to be honest but i don't want to do anything with it unless the SIDC team says it's ok. It'll probably look ok in print actually...
phil Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Looks good to me Artistic licence on the logo is fine
willie Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Send me the file and I will get a couple of demo ones done...
CAZ1562 Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 I know the quality of this is crap but I'm at work and only have MS Paint to play with, but you get the picture.
Carl Davey Posted September 3, 2004 Author Posted September 3, 2004 Willie, you have 2.63Mb's worth of .psd in your inbox! Marc, the idea was one for each window, Derek mentioned it further up the thread. When you imagine the 'LEFT' one on the N/S window and the 'RIGHT' one on the O/S window in think they kinda come together?
Scoobylav Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 I like the design a lot, but would it not look better with www.scottishscoobies.com under the full width of the sticker including underneath the SIDC logo ? Would someone be able to knock one up quickly as a comparison. My fear is that the URL looks lost somewhat. Also by doing this the user name could be slightly larger.
Carl Davey Posted September 3, 2004 Author Posted September 3, 2004 There we go, although i think it upsets the balance a little having the text all the way along and won't look as neat on a window. I know it's hard not to get used to picturing it within the black rectangle...
Scoobylav Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 I don't know Carl I think I prefer it like that. Although the text does look a bit spaced out. What does everyone else think ?
Boyakasha Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 << Marc, the idea was one for each window, Derek mentioned it further up the thread. When you imagine the 'LEFT' one on the N/S window and the 'RIGHT' one on the O/S window in think they kinda come together? Carl Davey >> Me Stupid
Scoobylav Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Seeing them together I do prefer the top ones
CAZ1562 Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 IMHO - I'd think the Scottish flag should be a tad bigger. I don't like the full length web name either.
Scoobylav Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Well I will have a set when they are available
scuba dou Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Top ones for me too...and I could go for the tad bit no probs. Might be worth checking that the longer names will fit to keep the overall template a standard size, uniformed, so to speak. Then all we need to do is get them on the same place on every car
Carl Davey Posted September 3, 2004 Author Posted September 3, 2004 I have justified the text appropriately on both the LEFT and RIGHT versions so that the text aligns correctly. i.e. on the 'LEFT' version it algins left and on the 'RIGHT' version it aligns right. I've also checked that 'dropped' characters (p, q, j, y etc) don't infringe on the URL. It's easy enough to squash the username up in photoshop so as not to screw up the format. Although i have absolutely no idea about how the stickers will be made but i presume the chap will be able to keep things within the basic template. I'd imagine some artistic licence may have to be employed for the longer usernames but this isn't up to me.
