  5. Photoshop Effects

    Cool, Ian. But I am thinking that the window doesn't work because of the 'outdoor' theme...here's another attempt I made, but now I am thinking instead of a window of adding a silouette of a diver curved on the edge - you know, just to make this more difficult. :biggrin:
  6. Anyone know this font off...

    In my attached sample...top one is News Gothic Bold Condensed, Bottom is Alternate Gothic.
  7. Couple of Questions on Fonts

    I have about 1650 loaded on my computer with no manager as of yet. Starting off with those that Fred mentioned is the best idea. I also recommend Letterhead fonts - they are great; as are SignDNA and Signfonts. Yesterday I purchased the 'county fair picnic' pack from Font Diner; very fun...
  8. Photoshop Effects

    Ahh, Photo Paint...I didn't try it. As a matter of fact I almost stated that I didn't have it - but I do. Never used it - now I have something else to play with :cool1: Thanks That Girl!
  9. Photoshop Effects

    You guys are great, thanks for the input. I have tried the glass effect in Eye Candy, but it's alot like the bevel effect - looking routered and not domed. I like what you did with the airbrush, Ian. I have attempted many tries with the airbrush also (yours looks better :smile:) but really to...
  10. Photoshop Effects

    Thanks Guys...I am having a hard time achieving what I am looking for. This customer directed me to the Bullfrog ad - he really likes the look, but wanted his oval black which only adds to the hard time that I am having. Here is what I have now and still not happy with the effect. What do you...
  11. Photoshop Effects

    I have the glass buttons, they didn't really hit the mark either. I REALLY love the one under most popular; 'shiny and glossy surfaces' - that is exactly what I am looking for, but it's only for PS7 and above, as so many of the nice stuff is. I guess I'll attempt to do it myself - it's always...
  12. Photoshop Effects

    Does anyone know where you can get an effect for Photoshop 6 that will give you the look of a domed decal? I've used Eye Candy's bevel and Photoshop's bevels and I'm not really liking the results. Looking for an effect like the one on this Bullfrog Spa logo...
  13. Cannot import .ai files

    I had this same problem again. Just thought that I would let you know, Fred, that once again...you were right. I just got lucky last time...had nothing to do with the combined objects and all that other babble - It was defaulting to the (GSP) adobe illustrator file (ai) import filter and just...
  14. Extra Paths in Illustrator Files

    I'd love to know what causes this...I always get this with other peoples Illustrator files. Easy enough to fix if it is a simple drawing, but when they are complex it is a PITA to find and remove all of them! Mostly, I assumed it was some sort of Mac to PC conversion thing since most of the...
  15. Edge Printing Fades

    I tried the setting that you suggested, color was great - except the cream didn't print at all, the background was white and the black in the photo didn't fill in at all...looked like you just printed the cyan and never put the black to it at all. Pattern was nice, too. After reading a post...
  16. Edge Printing Fades

    Scott, I'm glad you brought up this issue again. I printed a sign today that I set it up in photoshop. I had a cream background...and burgundy type. I added an outer glow of the 'default yellow' to the type. The type also ran across a picture along with the cream background. I saved as a high...
  17. Entry level CNC router

    Just something for you to look into, I don't know anything more about it than just finding it interesting! http://www.shopbottools.com/PRTalpha.htm
  18. Cannot import .ai files

    Thanks Gene, I'll try that. I have never been able to make it work in the past, but now with Omega 2 - maybe I'll have a better shot. :biggrin:
  19. Cannot import .ai files

    I am really good at that; confusing others that is!! :biggrin: What it boils down to is that the ice cream and the hot dog had some combined objects or outlining; who knows it was clipart. I uncombined the whole thing, removed pieces of the ice cream cone that were behind the hot dog, welded...
  20. Cannot import .ai files

    THANKS FRED!! :biggrin: First of all, after a REALLY bad day, Thanks for making me laugh with the inquiring minds want to know post! I needed that more than anything. The graphic I was attempting to print was the hot dog and ice cream graphic from the sign I posted in Geb's post "DOT...
