Last of all, how do you find fonts when you create logos?Thanks for the help!#1 - I use Photoshop. Others may use various programs.#2 - Tripod will host your images, but apparently they don't want anyone to see your images... To view a link, it's best to copy and paste it into your browser's address bar. You can also open a second browser window and drag the link into the address bar of the second window.#3 - In general, fonts for sports teams jerseys and logos just are not widely available. They are custom made and not distributed.

JQK Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 #1 - Adobe Photoshop 5.0 and MGI Photosuite. However Adobe Illustrator is the most widely used, and the best, if you can afford it (which i can't)#2 - Alot of these hosting places suck. I use AOL, it sucks for everything else, but it'll let you remote-link...#3 - search obscure free font sites, or make your own...

pagan696 Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 check with your ISP, they usually allow x amount of web space for you to build personal web pages on. since it's probably something you may be paying for already.

KCScout76 Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 Welcome Coltsfan18 - stick around, there are a lot of great ideas flying around. What ever you want to do, get a good program you can use and practice using all the different features. You'll get the hang of it. Glad to have you aboard.

hockeygator Posted September 24, 2003 Share Posted September 24, 2003 #1 - Adobe Illustrator (I have 10, but 7, 8 and 9 are fine as well)#2 - Go with what these other guys say, I have my own site.#3 - Fontparadise.com & 1001freefonts.com are good places to find original fonts, but not so many sport fonts. Those aare harder to come by.#4 - I think the best way to learn is trial by error. If you mess around in the program you'll learn a lot. I have a post here with a PDF file that describes how to take Raster images from Photoshop and convert them into Vector images in Illustrator. Not the thing for pros, but a good way to start.
