Need artist to make banner/seal (FINISHED)

I need someone to make a seal from part of a banner as well as fix it up to make it look much better...

What I need is someone to take the Swan seal in the middle and create a separate seal from the banner as well as fixing it up a bit (ridding of yellow brush between wings, sharpening/making it more realistic, etc) Try making the seal look as professional as you can (as if I was putting it on a letter or something Wink

)

I will give the amount of 50 Frih$ to anyone who manages to do the best job and 10 Frih$ to those that didn't make what i needed, but did a decent job of it anyway.

Thanks in advance, guys Very Happy

Hi,

I just ran some basic optimisations on this...here's the result...

Ofcourse there's still quite a lot of work which could be done on the, but i think this is a good starting point for anyone else who wants to claim this magnificent prize Wink

BTW: ChaosMike...i recently gave away 1000frih$ for nothing...why? - because they are worthless to me...so only doante to me if you dont feel you have any use of the yourself...

ChaosMike

I appreciate you doing a little smoothening out Smile

Banner already looks smoother. I just need the seal as separate without the yellow crap in the middle of the wings and looking like a professional seal Wink

I'll take your advice and use what little I have to pay the frih$ hungry artists into making that seal/banner Wink

one step at a time! Razz

I saved it in bmp format where the next person that works on it will have the full image with no quality loss.

Good progress Very Happy

(can I get even sized bolts whoever's willing to take the load? Very Happy

)

I actually tried photoshopping the banner to make a seal and it went...ok...sorta... Laughing

I'll give ya 10 for some effort Wink

Once its saved as .jpg the loss has happened - so saving it as bmp doesnt do anything (good)!

You saving as bmp did get me thinking though:

Why do you need US to edit an image you presumably either got made for you or made yourself? Why is it a .jpg? Why is there no .psd layered image?

THere is no reason. Therefor i believe you have "found" it on the internet. Thats illegal. Unless you have explicit permission from the owner and creator of this image, i dont want you to use any of what i have submitted. I DO care - stealing other peoples images without their permission is not right in any way - especially not if your using this image for a commercial company.

Anyway.

I now understood what you want propperly (i obviously didnt before), so heres a "seal" image.

If your using Internet Explorer it will appear to have a grey background. Dont worry - it doesnt - it has a transparent background which will appear transparent in your word documents.

btw: i just found your "source" for this image: http://z6.invisionfree.com/OPA/index.php?act=idx

I dont think it was ever his intention to copy someone else's work... he just wanted us to use that for inspiration... not to copy.... if he wanted to copy it i'm sure he could have done that himself! Razz

ChaosMike

whoops...I forgot to tell you guys about the background to this image Laughing

That image (and forum it's in) is used for Cybernations, a political nation simulation game. What that website happens to be is the "alliance" within the game (which I am happy to be a part of) Indeed, the creator is not me, rather, I was just chosen to find someone able to professionally modify our banner.

Could someone edit those steel bolts to be the same size btw? Thanks for all of you that put some effort into it. I appreciate it Cool

If any of you happen to be interested in CN....http://cybernations.net/ Artists come in handy for flags, and stuff like that(JOIN OPA Wink

)
BTW, when the banner/seal is done, you can find those beauties on http://z6.invisionfree.com/OPA/index.php

I managed to complete the bolts myself. I thank you all who put the effort into getting this seal done. Luke, do you want those 50 frih or should I give it to corey?

Again, thanks for the help.

coreymanshack

it doesn't really matter to me.... just split them up or something...

LukeakaDanish

I dont care the least either - i just do it for the love Wink

ChaosMike

I gave u both 50 for the heck of it Very Happy

Im just glad it's finished Cool
