Color and Hue are effectively the same thing when working with a B&W stock.
You mind taking that off and letting me see what it looks like with some color? As it stands I can't really say what needs to be improved since everything is just sorta washed out.
Fun Fact number 1: B&W sigs don't contain strange red streaks that are clearly colored.
Fun Fact number 2: It's best to master the use of lighting before trying B&W. Ever notice how old B&W films still have good contrast between light and dark? Its because they became masters of lighting scenes to look a certain way when the color was removed. GFX is no different. If something is lit poorly and then turned B&W it ends up as a washed out mess with no contrast or lighting to speak of. This is a case like that.
I'm curious, if possible, could you remove the B&W and see what color looks like? Or did you actually desat everything instead of just applying a gradient map or B&W adjustment layer?
Wish I would have bought one during the 'Nucks and Bruins cup series, predicted the winner and score plus the underdog team to win. Could have made a killing off that ticket.
But alas, I didn't buy one and still haven't.
Assuming Higgins hasn't changed the way its set up the sides are a percentage to accommodate different resolution sizes. For example its not set to have the board width at say 850px but rather 85%.
I was just akin how much experience you have with skinning invisionzone. From what I can tell it appears similar to IF on the surface but seems to hide a lot of its code in things that can't be edited meaning doing more advanced changes to how things are laid out is basically an impossibility without a lot of knowledge on the matter.
Not to sound rude but do you know how to code insisionzone? As nice as that mockup is doing even the basics of it was damn near impossible. If you know how than more power to you but its not a simple process to code on this site.
Higgins, please send me a PM regarding skinning if you could. I have some ideas I want to try and run by you.
Finding a download for Helvetica could be tough. It's one of the most used and most expensive font faces.
If I'm not mistaken though, Kendrick has a mac which come equiped with the entire Helvetica family.
In any case, I agree with the keep it simple notion. I'm sure we've all got plenty of over-stylized fonts from our noob GFX days but they rarely get used. In general its better to use simple text and just play with the kerning and stuff to make it work.
Looks like I just barely based Young this year, interesting that both my newest goalies are in the same spot haha.
Also, under 50% penalty shots with Bek, can't believe he was supposed to be built as a scorer haha
Just donated 20
Was gonna do a bit more but I remembered that we can only do $20 per season haha. If it's too late to count these for S35 than let me know and I'll use the bonuses during S36.
Sent the two you wanted from me. I did change some of the layer names kinda like you said. Mostly just when I had an applied image or something that looked confusing.
I've got those two on my main computer. I'll upload the PSD's later tonight probably.
No guarantee if I'll have time but if I do would you like me to change the layer names to reflect what was done on them in order to make some steps a little more clear? Sometimes its helpful, sometimes it's not. All depends what I did really which I don't recall just from looking at them.
If Kora wants to send me the banner I'll do my best to get it positioned in there. I never actually received a file for it though, just the mock-up that includes it.
