A little help needed with marquee art please
« on: November 11, 2013, 01:35:53 am »
So, in my build thread I posted a couple different versions of the marquee art I am planning on putting in my cab. This one:

Well, the guy who going to play with it and make it high resolution has "promised" it for a few weeks now and somehow keeps forgetting to bring it to work or send it to me. I don't have the art software skills to make my own so I am turning to this forum for help. What I am hoping is that someone here can either help me out or point me to someone that can do this. It doesn't have to be this exact image but I'd like it to be similar -- a bunch of raindrops falling down and those words, but it doesn't have to be that  exact font (we found the font in the internet and I believe it was actually called rain). With the white CCL behind it, I think the grayish-blue would look good.The final marquee size will be 23.5" wide x 7" high.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Here's a quick redo in the size you wanted. I uploaded a .png copy of it to my dropbox account HERE ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/4m925ahh837yd2t/BezelArt.png ) and also attached a compressed .jpg image so you could see what it looks like ( the .jpg is compressed enough to let it be attached here since there is a 2MB filesize limit for attachments on the forum so has a few compression artifacts so the .png would be better for printing but is about 14MB +\-)

I also did a slightly changed version that is HERE ( https://www.dropbox.com/s/7z9hog83vy39247/BezelArtredo.png ) -- it has a different background image merged into it and I think looks a bit better. Also attached a .jpg as a second attachment below.
