photoshop has vector ability too... i have PS, Illustrator, and indesign... but i made those ones above in PS

Golden86

Thats good to know, besause I didn't know that PS had vectors in it, but im also no graphic designer either.

Flecs

yup... PS has the pen tool... and the shape tools (circle, rectangle, rounded rectanle, and custom shape menu) then also has the combine, substract, and the two overlay options for the shapes


of course you can get alot better stuff in illustrator since its a complete vector program but PS does have the basics

Golden86

oh yeah, thats the thing I don't ever use, that pen thing over there

I don't do much logo, or text work in general, thats why I never really looked into the vector tools.

Flecs

lol! its all good... i love makin logos and such so yeah... but try playin with em some time... you can do some intersting things

jerome829

oh, they aren't vector? hmm... i really like the way golden 86 got the logo spot on with the a-team...



while i appreciate the other entries, is there a way to vector the original "a-team" layout?

Flecs

i could do it... let me try and do it in illustrator

cherryBox

there a winner yet?

Flecs

ok almost done... i tink you will liek it!

Flecs

ok here ya go... its completly vector... it can be saved as an illustrator or photoshop file... and it can be used with just the text (no background on it) it can pretty much be printed on anything or put anywhere

cherryBox

non-watermarked vector available

jerome, how much time you giving on your contest? i just stumbled on it today, and am going to put up at least one entry.

jerome829

flecs, it's nice but i'd like a white background and dark green text... no background is necessary

also, can you replicate similar bullet holes as the original?

can you stretch the "border" bar on the top to the ends of both sides?

the same goes for the bottom border bar to the end of the right side...

finally, the x seems misplaced... i personally would like to see it smaller and sit upright like the rest of the text on the upper left portion underneath the left border bar... right by the "A"

i do like the idea of posting the actual address as well... good work

jerome829

this one is really good, too...

if you can, ditch the xa, make the "THE" like the original font width if possible with the bars stopping and starting to have the "THE" by itself

reposition the x closer to the portion of the a, and add the bottom bar ... the address to the site is a nice touch like flecs did, see if you can add that there too

i feel bad because a lot of you guys have great ideas that i would like to see all implemented together, once it's finalized i'll have to figure out how to reward everyone

thanks again guys.

jerome829

note: if you guys can place the "x" where golden86 did it, it would be perfect...

golden86, i'd like to know if you can vector your graphics?

close... here:



if you can vector an image of the xa on the top right or even a silhouette like flecs did i'd like to see what it would look like...

cherryBox

image is broken...

I'm sorry, I thought you said to 'ditch the xA'?

jerome829

working now... i just wanted to see what it'd look like... it's no biggie if you don't, was just wondering...
