Hi All:

I'm building a cab, (stained wood cab)... and its time to do CP graphics...

I think long and hard, and I found what I like:
its not arcade related... but its what I like...
its from comic book... I have all of them, and scanned what
I like in here....

uploaded into a photo gallery...

I have very limited photoshop skills, but I do have patience if its a tedious job....

anyone has any suggestion on how to make a nice CP graphics out of these pics ??

(they're scaled down for upload... the original is much higher res...)

THANKS THANKS THANKS....

ps: my preference, no need to be too crowded, a few character is good enough..... although I have uploaded quite a few choices up there....

Please give your comments... good or bad... all welcome...
Thanks again...
 

[edit] Ohh... forgot to mention, my cp will be about 36 in wide, 13 in deep.

suggestion: you can upload the image here, attach it to the post. When posting note the "Additional Options..." link right under the "Message" text area. Click the "browse..." button to select the file you wish to attach to the post.
Makes it far more easier for everyone to see the picture and it also would help generating more response.

So, now the comment on your pictures...  I like the one with the two (japanese?) glyphs. Just keep it like that I think it already looks great.

Hi All:

Thanks for the help of Felsir, and after a few more tries, I now can upload the pic here.

The following pic is what I think will be the cp layout...

however, I think the white background needs something on.... (too empty right now), and I might scale down the 2 words a bit....

btw, this is from Chinese comic, and the left owrd means "wind" and the right word means "cloud", and its basically the name of the 2 characters (main char of the comic...)

I might add a little this and that... here and there...

and would REALLY like to hear your suggestions... / tips / tricks / anything...

ps: 1 more thing... somehow, I cannot login to the kodak site using the posted login anymore....

maybe someone decided to use that login for himself....
but don't really matter... I now know how to post pics here now, and most likely, I will post more details soon...

please keep the suggestions coming...

Thanks....
