[A SNEAKY PANDA]

is it a cracked version? or is it elements?

[short207]

I think it might be elements?

I'm working on a few logos in my spare time

[A SNEAKY PANDA]

oh, elements was kinda a letdown ALOT of important tools and abilities missing from it. why dont you give GIMP a try. its just like having a full version of PS

I almost downloaded gimp then got confused... quite randomly...

I am starting to work on a mess around jersey design. I talked to T 2 from Boston paintball, he did the boston bloodline jerseys and every boston paintball factory teams's jerseys. I heard the jersey designs he makes go from 100-1,000 layers and one time his computer crashed making the jerseys, thats insane.

As soon as I become more comfortable using photo shop I might start making some designs for Maine teams. Sadly the class on Graphic design I took did not really go deep into the photo shop world. I know its a time consuming process, hope fully I'll start to produce so good designs and logos. Any help will be appreciated

I do not have much experience either, but if you ever have any questions, ask them in here and Roger or I might be able to answer them

I need to do something to the EKG line to make it look better, but I'm not sure what. Any ideas? I think I might have to get rid of the glow where there is no black behind it...

[dporter]

hmmm... just a random idea that popped into my head, but maybe if you outlined it with a white line where it's backed by lettering and outline with black where its got the white background.. idk. again, just a random idea

[Corey]

Hmm, I might try that, thanks DPO!

[Corey]

Updated version, I think it looks much better. Any other comments?
