What Does YOUR DCL magnetic door sign look like? With other great tips for your sign

Great design. I agree with post above. Yes what program did you use

Thanks for the compliments. I used my Microsoft Micture It Photo Premium 9. It was under the Awards templates. I do not know if I can make the center star larger, I will maybe try. That is a good idea to put a character in the center, then maybe I will use it for a door sign. Well I am off to create another.

I have only posted two but I've made about 5 or 6 so if I don't stop now I wont be able to find the handle to my stateroom in July

I can't figure out how to make it smaller sorry

I like Goofy holding the balloons. I havn't seen that clip art used. Very cute!

Thank you trying to be a little different

What I have learned is that you really have to start out with a large graphic to begin with, in order to maintain quality. You can always make it smaller, but if you try to enlarge a small one it just gets pixelated and/or distorted.

A good tip (although sometimes you have to wade through a little more to find what you're looking for) is using Google search and look for Images, and then from there you can specify to look for only large (or even medium, in some cases) images. Hope that helps!

I love this thread. I have gotten so many great ideas and great clip art...can't wait to really get started on my signs. I have a few started and really like where they are going.... I am by far no expert but I am learning as I go along.

Question: what window based programs allow you to flip to mirror images...or should I break down and buy a program from somewhere?

These are my first few attempts at sign making...

Sorry, I can't take credit for that. I found this as clip art....and I couldn't tell you where. I think it was DCL site that someone listed here before.

I like how you modified the mickey ears in your DCL emblem. Are you printing your signs for t-shirt designs? You should be able to tell you printer to flip it/mirror in your printing options screen. kcul doog! lol

Ok, here are mine! Call me OCD, whatever you want I'm a little embarrassed (ok maybe a lot) by this first picture. I SWEAR I'm not actually planning out the details this much. I just think that the only way I can justify the simplicity of my signs is by showing how they all work together.

You just confused the daylights out of me! I saw your post, and then a few minutes thereafer my internet went crazy. So when I got back on, I went to the DDA thread and thought, 'i could have swore Marci typed somthing'. I looked over and over, and tried to figure out what in the world could have happened!

Thank you though!

We have a cruise this summer -- our third with Disney, so I've been trying to keep up with this thread, too.

It's awesome to run in to friends on other threads!
