New Romantics.

next time post your question about fonts in "unidentifiable fonts" thread up at the top. Please.
jenniiiii
i wasnt asking what font it is. i know what font it is. if you read it then you would know that.
technicolour
Gees. Chill.


Actually, any ordinary font, like Georgia, Times Roman or any of those others, would actually look like fine, with maybe some kerning effects.
jenniiiii
sorry but its not really nice when people dont read things properly when you've spent the time writing it. but meh over it.

k thanks :)
&& whats kerning?? i only have imageready becuase photoshop is poo on my computer dusnt work properly. & im new to this whole graphics thing so i have no idea what any of the things are lol.

It's sort of you fault for titling it just "what font?". Adding a "should I use" would've made it a lot easier to understand the basic premise of the topic. mellow.gif

Kerning is the amount of space between letters, if I'm not mistaken. And... I think Arial, all caps, with a little negative kerning? Georgia maybe. Actually, maybe.... Several. Ahh... Fits the words, but not the graphic. Nevermind.

Uhm, yeah, but whatever. Well, I have photoshop and:



Kerning is how much space is between the letters themselves. You can get a lot of effects with just playing with that. (Reili you were right....) I haven't a clue how to get that in psp, but, i'm sure someone else does..


I think that maybe a white font, with some kerning, would look pretty decent.
jenniiiii
how do i add kerning? remembering that i am using imageready.

edit:// didnt see that post ^
thanks :)
ill try it now :)
technicolour
k, first, hit up the text tool. Second, press the button that I highlighted up at the top:



And then in the box I highlighted up top, play around with the negative #'s. negative = closer together, positive = further apart




oops. Oh well.
jenniiiii
thankyou :D

ermmm okay so i did this: http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/9923/wilthingy29pq.png

hmmm i dont think it looks right :/
gahhh im poo at these kinda things lol.
technicolour
It isn't reeally bad at all. I think that if you had a new image, that you could do a lot.
jenniiiii
yer supose but i really like that image ahah
anyways thanks for all your help :)
this topic can be closed now :)

Well, you could always add some coloring effects to the image. but whatever. No problamo.

I suddenly came up with a crazy idea. =0 Use a smaller font and them emphasize words by making them larger. Let's see... -digs in images for example-

Something like that. Anyways.... You can always PM a corresponding staff member to get this re-opened.
