Dolly--questions about your designs

[hoeselhouse]

Dolly,
I am new to the disboards and am looking for Star Wars Lego designs for my son's 5th birthday. I copied the invitation that you have on 4shared as well as a couple of other things but wanted to ask a couple of questions. Is there a way to make the invitation bigger so that it would fit a full size (8 1/2 x 11) paper? Also, I saw your link for downloading the star wars font, but I have not been successful with this. Do you have any hints related to this? Lastly, I was wondering if you have suggestions for how to print the license tags desgins you have on 4shared. My son would love this for his bicycle. Do you print on a heavy paper and hard laminate or is there some other technique for making these? Thanks so much. Your designs are great!

1. Invitations: I usually make them with a 300 resolution so it is possible that it may still look good if you increase the size. If you try to increase the size and it becomes pixilated...send me a pm letting me know which invitation you are interested in along with your email and I can try to enlarge it for you.

2. Star Wars font: I can't remember which font I posted or which website and I'm not sure what problem you are having trying to download it. I'm assuming you don't know how to load a font onto your computer (if that isn't the problem let me know which site, font and what problem you are having).

Here is an example for how to load a font onto your computer. This is called Waltograph which is the "Disney" font that everyone loves to use:
• Go online to www.dafont.com
• Search, find and open a font called “Waltograph”
• Click on the “Download” button
• Then click on “Open”
• Next you will need to unzip the file. In most computers, a screen will pop up with a box on the left that says “folder tasks” and in the box click on “extract files” Follow the prompts by clicking “next” and “finish” making sure that the final box has a check mark next to “show files”
• A new box will pop up. In this box, copy “Waltograph42” and “WaltographUI”. Do this by holding down your “control” button on the bottom left corner of your keyboard and click each file. Then on the top of the screen click on “edit” and in the drop down box click on “copy”.
• Next click on your computers “Start” button
• Then click on “Settings”
• Then click “Control Panel”
• Then open the file that says “Fonts”
• At the top of the font screen click on “Edit” and then in the drop down menu click on “Paste”
Now the correct font will show up when you want to use it.

3. I don't have any other ides for how to use the license plates. I print them on cardstock, laminate them and attach with cable ties.

Dolly,
I was wondering if it would be possible to get the Star Wars Lego license tag without the "Walt Disney Word" writing and instead have "Star Wars" at the top and "May the force be with you!" at the bottom. Thanks so much for all your help.

I made it for you and it is in my 4shared file in the license plate file and is called "star wars lego non WDW"
