Nice pic, Sellsword. Could maybe be used as a background pic.

Any further info on the development of the Guild logo, Xandax, Xyx?

Well not from my side.
I've been fidling with some javascripting on the memberpages, so when pressing class or alignment, instead of opening a new page, it opens a smaller window with info.

Have not had time to mess with logos

I could tweak the last one some more (make it a bit clearer/sharper/brighter)...

Any suggestions?

@Garcia: I like the background also, try mailing it to me if you have it as a picturefile

Ups sorry Xan I thought that I was the last one to post in this topic I didn't see your post. Of course I can send it to you,in what format and size would you like it?
I am sending you the one I used for the logo right now

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Fri Oct 12, 2001 3:32 am

Got it, and don't worry about format, there is (almost) no format I can't open anymore

@Xandax what font did you use on the BotB web page to write "Blades of the Banshee"?

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Mon Oct 15, 2001 12:09 am

If you mean the text - it's currently (IIRC) Times New Roman.

If you mean the images then it was a font specific in an 3d program I used.

Yes I thought that it was some java/program thingy it was just in case that if said if the font had a name because the logo needs a little something and it bugs me that the fonts aren't the same.

It is called: "monotype corsiva" in the program, but I don't seem to be able to extract it somehow, I'm working on it

Thx

I have found it. believe it or not it was on the microsoft page free download with other cool [url="http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/9798/offeurofonts.aspx"]fonts[/url]

Xandax · Post by **Xandax** » Mon Oct 15, 2001 1:08 am

*LOL* - I guess I also have it in other programs

Maybe I should use it for the website text also?

*GG* can't see the forest because of the trees

I think that it would look cool if you used monotype C for the site it is still very readable and it fits with the site.

the logo is getting there
with the new font

Question for the artist formerly know as Garcia

How do you take one picture and place it another without overwrting the background colour?

say I have a friend

who have a *.gif (should be transparent background) and this ... eehh.. friend wishes to use the background image I got from you, but I ..eh.... he can't place that *.gif image ontop of the backgroup without the gif overwriting the background with black.

What did you do to get the swords in your logos?

Said differently, how do I (yes, it is me if you didn't know

) take the "motive" of a picture and leave the backgroud alone, and put that motive on another background?

@Xandax *LOL*

tell your "friend"

that I think that he wants to put the "Blades of the Banshee" logo on the Background, no? you will have to color it white first (it is easiest to use that "paintbukket" the one to fill out an area with one color) when that is done it should look like [url="http://garcia.whitehat.dk/Xandax/logo_white.jpg"]this[/url]

Then I use the "mark" button, the one you make a squar with and then you can move whatever is in it (top right in paint

)

The easiest way IMO is to make the window for the background bigger than the pic. like [url="http://garcia.whitehat.dk/Xandax/logo_work.jpg"]this[/url] that way you can put the thing you are working with on the right of it (or under it) and after you are finished just mark and move it to were it fits you.

the sword is done the same way as the text first copied to pain (or paint shop pro but I don't have that on this comp

) paint the the area around the sword white then mark it and then ctrl-c and paste it in the other paint window. I have made a new [url="http://garcia.whitehat.dk/Xandax/sword.jpg"]sword[/url] for the logo

I hope this work Xan
