auntiebiotic Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I need advice on ideas to make a logo for my forum BEST in HULME http://knowingabout.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl. At the moment I am using a swf file but this is quite large. I would like to incorporate the attached file of Hulme Arch (local landmark) and the words "BEST IN HULME" in the middle of the arch but my efforts so far look even worse than at present. Also when i use the magic wand, (the only tool at present i know how to use) to remove the sky and leave the background transparent, after saving the background is white. all ideas welcome. thx in advance Quote BEST IN HULME http://bestofhulme.blogspot.com If you lif work, or study in Hulme, you deserve the best in hulme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Posted August 2, 2009 Share Posted August 2, 2009 If you want to preserve transparency in your photo, save as a PNG or GIF, not JPEG. Also, consider using the photo as a guide and drawing the arch out yourself with the Line/Curve tool. Usually, a logo is better as simple shapes with solid colors than derived from a photo.
