Marquee for new Cab
« on: December 26, 2002, 03:01:17 am »
What do you all think of this marquee? Obviously I used a ROBOTRON Marquee to start with then just did my own thing. My last name is Wilson so I put that in the place of Williams.

He may be trying to block out shadows on the edges.  I think it looks good!

My marquee area is actually a long oval so nothing gets cut off in the graphic on the ends I need a border when I have it printed.

This is the original Cab I got from Mark Schwartz from this Forum. Note the Marquee is oval.

Yea that's the one. However I live in Maryland. Took almost 9 hours to get there spent the night in a Hotel then brought it back the next day, another 9 hours. So the "free" Cab cost me about $200. :)

 It doesn't look much like that any more. Once I get this Marquee printed I'll probably put some pics up in the Project Announcements section.

Thanks!
