WOW!!! DCStudio back on top with Post #20! Fine, fine quality right there! Wowzer! Like that guys. One more day 'till we close this thing. Great work guys. You're all on track now. Thanks and try again if you think you can top that one. We'll also have another contest for you all tomorrow! Forsh
hey.... can I just say that onlyfights box is from google images. heres the link: http://www.tinytreasury.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/cardboard_box_jarno_vasa_.jpg
well, there is a button in illustrator called "live trace". You click it, and it turns the photo or w/e into vectors. It is easily distinguishable from the way it works, the image will be made up of shapes and the strokes will all be shapes with perfectly aligned colouring set inside them. It is notably different from the way in which you usually work to create a shape. If this is how the box was created, it is still a violation of copyright, because you need permission to use the image. Even tracing the image freehand is a grey area. better to make the image from scratch really.
Version 2: flipped the box as you requested, and changed the font. I also am working on another version, should have that up shortly!
Wow, Great last few submissions guys. Really some great choices. Remember, we're wanting the "PCS" letters jumping out of the box if you can. We'll be closing this competition in about 6 hours. So please submit any last minute revisions and be on the lookout for our next competition which will start tonight as well. Thanks again. You guys are talented. Looking forward to lots more competitions. Regards, Forsh
Official Notification: We're going to close this contest in about 3-4 hours from now. Around 9 or 10 PM JST. So please contribute all your final designs before the deadline. Sorry for the double post. Wanted to make sure everyone was notified of the deadline. Thanks guys! You do great work! Forsh
DCstudio: We want to judge your entry #20 but it isn't showing up for us in order to judge it tonight. I saw it yesterday and really liked it. But if its not here to look at we will have to pass. Can you make it display or PM with with it so we can decide? hughman: We're thinking you're in the lead right now with #30. We like the effect, box, polish, everything. Except the plain font. Can you change the font to something a little more unique for "Okinawa"? The "PCS" font is perfect. Don't change it. If you can improve the font we're thinking you're the winner. So one more try please. onlyfights: We actually like your font and glossy look on #13, the second entry. But it's too intense and needs to be smoothed out. We're not totally liking your entry #27 font. It's too plain. But the polish is good. We're giving a bit more time tonight but want to close this out. So we're going to keep this open 'till 11pm JST. Which is 1:30 from now. Thanks all, Forsh
