      IRC Nickname: His Lordship Group: Founder Posts: 6029 Member No.: 1 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 129    | Can someone with a lot of photo talent for the love of the sea make this image? I need it in a CGI style, so Nay cartoons, Nay live photos.  Several entries would be fantastic. Details Everything drawn be a background image. It will be centered. 1. A sword hilt. It's not drawn to scale. It's gotta be a one-handed sword, made of silver with a black leather hilt. Look at Anduril for an example. The hilt can't be too long though because i want the title near the top. So just one hand's width plus a short bit on the end. Don't make the horizontal part too shiny. Keep it rather plain as that's where the title goes. So it needs to be thick enough to draw enough attention to the title. 2. Hands holding a parchment scroll. The monthly selections will go over that, and I can edit that myself in HTML. I want the effect of the parchment being in a candlelit room, so use a warm light as if they were holding it in front of a campfire. The hands should cast some shadow. Play with the intensity, since I want the shadows fairly strong. 3. These smaller banners be for the main pictures. They need to curl around the sword so that they don't look like they were just stuck over. The image I gave be pretty rough so it looks like they were stuck over. Make them large enough to attack attention but not thicker than the sword hilt for the main page title. 4. The sword continues down. Now since there will be varying numbers of photos each month, this background image needs to be a segment of the sword that can be repeated as necessary. It thins out to the point at the end. ________________ I wager I've given plenty of detail on that. Now I be TERRIBLE with HTML so once these images be made, I need another member to put them into a HTML document as background centered images, and then send me the html file to put the photos on top. --------------------  | ||||

As a last resort, I could attempt a pixel art version on Paint if you want. However, considering the size of the image, that will take weeks. Edit: Dallar if you do the CGI, I can do all the coding for it. -------------------- [05:42] <+WG_Keanu> I think I got a semi just looking at the pic [05:42] <%kat> same | ||||

| IRC Nickname: Samurai-JM Group: Emeritus Posts: 3204 Member No.: 117 Joined: January 11, 2008 Total Events Attended: 8 | 2nd progress point:  I added some texture and color changes to make the banners/scroll seem more worn and realistic. Still to do: sink script from blade (if ye want it gone, it's easy) divide image into sections (easy with layers, sword can easily be split up) make sword hilt smaller (easy with photoshop cs4/5's CONTENT AWARE SCALING WOO!) and whatever else ye want done, say the sailor enjoy  -------------------- -=}¤- Vi Veri Veniversum Vivus Vici -¤{=- W I N N I N G | ||||

If ye can make the scroll bigger, as in, double that size, I'll forever be grateful. As usual, your work astounds me. Thanks for all this effort matey. I appreciate it. It looks fucking fantastic. -------------------- | ||||

| IRC Nickname: His Lordship Group: Founder Posts: 6029 Member No.: 1 Joined: December 26, 2007 Total Events Attended: 129 | Oh and also, the top silver part of the hilt. Could ye shorten it and just stick the knob onto the black bit? It's a little too long and that means the title be too low. -------------------- | ||||
