Nick 1733 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Hey, I ended up doing the design for the Darrent Williams tribute sticker that will now be sold and all the proceeds go to Darrent's childrens fund. I'm not the one running this, I just did the design and just wanted to know what you guys think of it.The blue background is just there because it was put on the Broncos message board and that's the color of the background of the board, the sticker itself is a circle.

slapshot Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 How big is this sticker? There's so much text going on it takes away from the picture of Williams, which should probably be the focus of the sticker.I'd put the dates underneath his name, so it reads like this:IN LOVING MEMORYDarrent Williams9/27/82-1/1/07Maybe you could have "A Denver Bronco Forever" as part of the border. Either way, make the picture more prominent.And the extra 27 is unnecessary, because you can clearly see it on his jersey.

Nick 1733 Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Thanks Jim, I'll talk to the person running it and see if I can change it and have it be okay.I was rushed because it was a short notice, short deadline type of thing. The sticker itself is 4x4 and I had to do it in Photoshop because of the photo. MLB, NBA, NFL & NHL Font Packs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 The "2" of "27" on his jersey has a glow on it, and that is where my eye seems to want to go when I look at it. It should be flat like the 7, "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

It should be flat like the 7,Well the effect is supposed to be the "27" glowing, standing out from the rest, because of the fact that he's now in Heaven.

Jezus_Ghoti Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 The "fact" that he's in heaven means that his jersey glows awkwardly?This sticker has potential, but it needs work. It reeks of a rush job. You can do better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick 1733 Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Well, here's the final version...The "fact" that he's in heaven means that his jersey glows awkwardly?This sticker has potential, but it needs work. It reeks of a rush job. You can do better than this.Well, you know, if you believe in all that. The glowing effect is supposed to represent a good spirit.

slapshot Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Two more things, if there's time...Remove the white outline. A single orange outline would do the job better, because the white still detracts from the image itself.Darken up the area under the banner, or just make it a solid blue, where the dates are. Orange text on solid blue should be legible enough. It's a little hard to read with the photo fading there.

Nick 1733 Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 Thanks Jim, I'll fix up the bottom with the date, and the orange-white-orange part is supposed to be like a helmet stripe, not supposed to really be an outline.

It should be flat like the 7,Well the effect is supposed to be the "27" glowing, standing out from the rest, because of the fact that he's now in Heaven.The problem is that it only looks like the 2 is glowing, not the 7. I thought it would look better without the glow, but if that is what you want, maybe more glow should be applied to the 7.

I think both numbers have that glow to them now. I got it in tonight, so it's the final design now, no going back.-----------------------------------------------------------If anyone wants one, the proceeds go to Darrent's children.

BBTV Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Got'cha. I just responded to the text of your post without looking at the updated image. Looks better now.

Nick 1733 Posted January 11, 2007 Author Share Posted January 11, 2007 The "2006" on the latest draft should be "1982."Thanks for noticing that. I should have caught it.It'll be revised along with taking the logo off the helmet. MLB, NBA, NFL & NHL Font Packs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
