Title: Gutshots "The Nuts" Marquee
Post by: Gutshot on May 31, 2007, 07:20:28 am

So I've had some time to design a marquee this week. This is my first concept I put together.
Any suggestions? Just looking for some feedback! 8)

Looks great!

The only thing that seems off is the "numbers" on the cards (J, Q, K...)
Maybe just bold the font or change it.
They look a little plain.

Other than that, it's tasty!

I would make the text bigger with the ladies filling up the dead space on the extreme left and right.

It's a nice looking marquee and "the nuts" reminds me of hanging out in a pool hall over 10 years ago. We used to say that all the time.

Latest revision, I think this is close to the one I will send to the printer.
Changed the card font and some other minor things. Cleaned up alot of the drawings etc. I pretty happy with it now

I like it, but maybe I'm too young or something, but "the nuts" means nothing to me.

It's just a poker term, The Nuts means having the best possible hand in a given situation. And the I put the Royal Flush in the cards as the best hand possible.
I just love playing poker and I like the poker theme.
