redrouteone Junior Member USA 226 Posts	Posted - 20 Jul 2003 : 20:52:35 I edited my last post to fix the link. I think that may be why. Here is the link again http://www.redrouteone.net/68kmla/rhapsody_in_blue_20Jul03.PNG So that every one won't have to go back a page ___________________________ Life is like Jeopardy you have all the answers, you just need the questions.

We can't have some stray RGB values be a little innacurate, can we?

The Balance Of Judgement Senior Member Ivory Coast 1006 Posts	Posted - 21 Jul 2003 : 05:22:42 What font did you use for the Si part? I'd like to grab that one. And just a note I am slowly updating the splash screens tonight, I am removing several of the ones I made, which were just temp ones untill folks made more, and now the user ones will start rolling as well as more content on the site. Some that users made I have redone and enhanced so that the text is anti aliased (was that the right term?) and visually pleasing. Busy day ahead of me!

redrouteone Junior Member USA 226 Posts	Posted - 21 Jul 2003 : 10:02:38 I found a picture of the Honda Si badge. Then useing GIMP I edited out the background and then changed the si so it was all the same shade. I do need to find a new apple logo as that one is not very good. I imported the Garamond font from the Mac to my PC and it just does not look right. I have no idea how to calibrate my monitor on my pc so I need to get some image editing software on my 8600 --Eric ___________________________ Have you seen my mojo?

The Balance Of Judgement Senior Member Ivory Coast 1006 Posts	Posted - 21 Jul 2003 : 18:37:43 I will e-mail you the PC True Type font for Garamond. Also just a note if you are going to submit, please submit 640 x 480 in PNG format. I usually take the image and spruce it up a bit before it's renumbered, so don't worry if fonts didn't look great, I got some more. The other ones are ready, I am just trying to get all of them re-numbered and in order and ready.

FireWire is fast General, 4 star USA 1559 Posts	Posted - 21 Jul 2003 : 19:44:23 Be careful with the Apple Garamond fonts, though. I found out that (with at least the version I downloaded) the leading (spacing) between characters is a bit loose - making the text look unauthentic. So just tighten it up and bit and all shall be well! -------------------- master of the Quadra/Centris Stick of Justice� and figure-head of the Peoples' PDS Republic --------------------

The Balance Of Judgement Senior Member Ivory Coast 1006 Posts	Posted - 24 Jul 2003 : 18:31:01 Oops. I will be hopefully replacing that stuff tonight. Small Note If you want to do a splash page, e-mail it to me @ remiel@girlspace-media.com and make sure it is 640 x 480 in PNG format, because the script depends on that. Thanks!
redrouteone Junior Member USA 226 Posts	Posted - 25 Jul 2003 : 22:11:26 BOJ thanks for putting up the splashies. Also thanks for the touching up the ones that I submitted they look much better now. It is so cool seeing my ideas publushed. Even if in very small circles. --Eric ___________________________ Have you seen my mojo?
