Dodger Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Hi, I discovered this forum a couple days ago and today decided to join. I have loved sports and logo/uniform design for as long as I can remember. I have taken a couple drawing classes but would like to start designing logos and uniforms. Right now all I have is Paint, which I realize isn't the best. Are there any better free programs out there that I can use? I can usually pick up a program pretty quick. I read the FAQ's but I'm not so sure how recent that is. Also any other tips you have for a beginning designer are greatly appriciated! Thanks.Edit- Also, where can I get these number fonts I have seen people using? thanks to crkraider22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Thank you for the help! It looks like Inkscape uses .svg files? Any idea where I can find .svg templates? thanks to crkraider22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watermelonman Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Thank you for the help! It looks like Inkscape uses .svg files?

chuckymack Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 For lettering and wordmark fonts, dafont.com would be a good place to start?they've got freeware versions of the Chargers, Falcons and Broncos fonts. Sigs are for sissies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
