So you have to name the mag "Drift Magazine" or is it just about drifting? Can it just be called "Drift". What are our options here Sir!

Thanx!

 

[eastley]

Interesting theme, I better go tak some pics so I can get to school and waste 6 hours on designing a mag cover

Thats why I wanted the comp up pretty soon, thanks Franz!!

 

[franz]

what Civ means is .... the magazine content is about Drifting
we can name the magazine whatever you like to fit the theme
and no doubt the photo you shoot should be drifting
but not necessary all of them i think

I feel the same way. I can sit and Photoshop for hours, like it were a game.

The line is: Auto-Motion at it's finest.

Thanks Sir! I think my covers are getting better.

I've hit a brick wall this week, I can't seem to get a descent cover made.

Have you looked over my guide and found if there was any useful info there? Maybe just going thru the steps will spark something.

At least you have a template there if you want it ....

Yeah your guide is great, nice work man...

I have done many things but still can't get it good enough to win, finding a car that drifts well is a bit of a hastle as I am hopeless at drifting, i'll keep at it and see what I can come up with. Have to re-install PS CS2 though as I have reformatted my PC since last week.

 

[Vicious VP]

Hey Vicious, I am after alot of fonts.

Would you be able to ZIP up say 100 of your finest so people can download them? Or do you know a link where I can download a heap at once instead of them individually?

You can DL individually or all at once for a small fee. I got about 4000 fonts or so for about 10$. Not a bad deal if you think about it. You DL it as a ZIP.

Damn, I don't have Pay Pal, might have to look into that. Plus I am dial-up..

 

[franz]

If you are after the one I used in the SLIDE title, that is one that I modified a lot ... so it does not exist as you see it there.

Here are all the font links I have in my favorites:

http://www.abstractfonts.com/fonts/
http://www.dafont.com/en/
http://mickeyavenue.com/fonts/disney-fonts.html
http://www.1001freefonts.com/
http://www.fontcraft.com/scriptorium/
http://www.fontheaven.de/index1.htm
http://www.dafont.com/en/
http://www.larabiefonts.com/
http://freefonts.fateback.com/

Some of these links may be old. I don't really know. Anymore, I only look for fonts for a particular purpose - like the Playstation font. I hope that this helps.

Here is the alternate version of the Slide Cover:

What do you think of this one?

A couple things...

While I like the effect you've used on the title text but, honestly from a distance it looks like 'sOde'. You want the reader to be able to read the title so he can tell all his buddies about it after he reads it. It is the premier issue and all.

Your original headline 'High plains' was much better. I would try to use that.

The red on the bottom article headlines is WAY too dark. You want it to stand out more so you catch the readers eye.

The car's angle, in this cover as well as the other, is very dynamic, but imagine it with a brightly colored, in-focus car and it would be a much more compelling image.

Hope that wasnt too critical. Just trying to be honest.
