How is everyone making these? Are you just printing them on something like cardstock and attaching to a sign post or putting it on your RV or what? lemme know please!

I just print them on photopaper, slide them into a page-protector and tape it wherever it is noticable (one on my golf cart, one ont the window of whatever vehicle is parked on the site) but cardstock and a stake is a good idea!!

wow!!!


those signs sure are nice!

I wish I had the disney font to make something like that.

I'll have to put that on my to do list that is around here somewhere....i'll have to start a new list to find the old one.

Isnt your "to do list" long enough already?
Hope this helps!!!...

Rog....Love the signs!

Any chance I could get you to make one up for us "Cockburn Family" and the "Oliver Family" as well. We will be there on Friday and would love to post some signs

Sorry for being a bother....but those signs are classic!

Matt is having a hard plastic yard sign made up for ours! The guy who is painting his cart has a sign shop and gave him a really good deal on it...

Oh my goodness!!!!

thank you so much Rog!! It is awesome!!

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

Hey wait a minute- mine didn't have extra characters popping out here and there. I'm so unspecial. LOL

Oooh, I hadn't even thought about just putting in a page protector then I can put it whereever I want- what a brilliant idea! I'm so uncreative I'd have never thought of that! thanks!

 

[Cockburn Family]

Thanks a million Rog!!!

They look fantastic....We will proudly display them on the carts and in front of the sites!!!

A cheap way to protect your signs is clear contact paper on both sides.

BigDaddyRog (or anyone else?) since you are so good at making these- can you help me out maybe?
I had been looking and looking for something "perfect" to put on our shirts for the cruise- I googled, I looked all over many threads on this board, etc. I finally found THE perfect graphic... but it's got other text in it and I can't find it anywhere else! I pm'd the person that made it- but I don't know when she'll be online again. I thought I'd give it a shot and see if you can help me? It's on this thread:
http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1710064

I think post #7 and 10? It's the mickey head with the ship and Magic written in it.
What I need to figure out is how to find that without text in it- or that one changed with all the text taken out, including the Eastern Caribbean part- all except the "magic" part. If I could get a copy of that-- that would be great enough really. BUT THEN if I could also maybe get it with "Cruisin' Disney Budgeteers" in one ear and Sorensen Family 2009 in the other ear- even better... but not sure if that's more difficult and/or if you can match the gray color like that one did? (I say "also" because I may make shirts like this later on with other text in it- so it would be good to get a "template" so to speak- without the text- and then one for me to make for this cruise. KWIM?)

Is that at all possible?

 

[Shan-man]

The image as posted is too small to do anything bigger than a business card. I would recommend contacting the poster and ask if they can e-mail you a high res version (without the text, if possible). If they can only send a high-res I can probably Photoshop out the text for ya.

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Yeah, he's right. That image is too small to be used for much of anything. I googled disney ships and cruises for a photo similar to the one used , there are some great MAGIC CRUISE pics...but not exactly like the one used in that particualar photo...I figured I could just make you one from scratch. But without THAT photo, Im afraid you'd be unhappy with the results. Sorry.

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

well I did PM them already but so far no response. I figured it would probably be too hard,but it was worth a shot to ask!
I basically just like that it's a mickey icon, with the ship inside. That the inside of the mickey icon is blue and not white is a plus- and I liked the outlining of the mickey (not just black thin outlining) -that's basically what I liked about it. Everything else I found with the ship that could have text added wasn't inside a mickey icon- like square graphic or the shape of the ship/etc. All inside the mickey icon was perfect for me not only because I like the mickey icon (obviously LOL) but also easier to cut around that for the shirts.
I searched more last night and still can't find anything like that. I wonder if they completely made that themselves? *wahhhhh*

 

[Shan-man]

BBB, here is a 10 minute swipe at it. If you like it I can add text to it and provide you a (very) high res version to print, or I can just provide it like this in high res.

 

[Shan-man]

And here is a 25 minute swipe at it!

I have now masked out the ship so I can drop in any background. Here I dropped in a more interesting sky. I also brightened up the sparkles.

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Very nice....I wonder if it would look better with a night time, star filled sky (maybe even outter space!!!!)

 

[Shan-man]

I thought about it since that is how the original looked, but the ship is so brightly lit it looks weird on a dark sky (plus my mask isn't quite THAT good to drop on black!).

 

[BigDaddyRog]

You think YOUR masking isnt very good...look at this awfull job!!! I just dont have alot of masking practice yet. I like the sky but you can see daylight all around the silhouette of the ship!!!

 

[Shan-man]

Ok Rog, you inspired me to take another whack at a night sky. Here is one with the mask tightened up and the brightness of the ship turned down to try to make it match:

Rog, I searched for your background but didn't see it. Do you have a high res of it?
