Fyrwulf Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Well, I'm guessing you don't have Photoshop, so I'd say GIF. File sizes are usually smaller and the quality is a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsox Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Here are a few suggestions to improve this concept:1) Don't use JPEG. The Concept will look a lot sharper without all the artifacts.2) Fill in the areas inside the cuffs and collar, since those would be blue as well.3) I would suggest making the "NY" on the helmet smaller, since on a real helmet the upper portion would be curving really bad.Thank you for your suggestions.Instead of saving it as a Jpeg, what would you recommend?I highly recommend PNG. That's what I always use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPEG is, in my opinion, a legacy file standard since both PNG and GIF have smaller file sizes without the artifacts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armadillo19 Posted May 3, 2007 Author Share Posted May 3, 2007 Alright, I took some more of your suggestions and did yet another version...please tell me what you think..CHANGES:Smaller helmet logoRemoval of the famous "Butt patch"Switch of shoulder patch from old "GIANTS" logo to "NY" logoSwitch of number Fonts to NFL Varsity Block letteringSwitch of letter Fonts to Jaguars lettering (is this alright? most of the others didn't really seem to work the way I wanted it to...)Switch of file type from JPeg to PNG file.Fill in of the bottom of the socks with blue (not sure if I like this but wanted to give it a try)Fill in of the collar of sleeves as recommended.

Fyrwulf Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 I would make the pant stripe slightly smaller so it can be drawn straight. The big fault with this and most other templates is that there isn't much room for a decent stripe. I think it's because there's a tendency towards over-emphasizing the leg pads on the side view.
