could some photoshopers help me out

[masterbiker]

I need this turned into a vector drawn graphic to be sent to the sign makers so it can be cut out in vinyl for my mini's roof. How do i do it in photoshop cs? Or if you are realy nice could you do it for me and e-mail me the file

 

[mankian]

sorry but i never heard of a vector drawn graphic :S

 

[masterbiker]

because vector graphics can be resized with no distortion, and it will cost me less to do it myslef.

yo dude, i can do vector images,i can do it in Xara, when do ya need it for, pass ur email on to me and ill sort it ! thinking bout photoshop end of it im sure i can sort something out

 

[masterbiker]

soon would be good, as i would like to get it done b4 the mini scottish meet at crail on sunday. But if you can't there is no rush as im still not sure if i have the time off work. I have sent you a PM with my e-mail

Vector drawings are used EVERYWHERE. Its a definitive line between one area and another, this MUST be used like this to allow the vinyl cutter to do its job. Its not a 60-70s thing its a must for ANY computer CAD work.

Masterbiker, if you get stuck I should beable to do that in corel draw for you.

Thanks, one of my mates from the world of warcraft has done it for me.

im a bit too late, i was going to do it for ya, im a CAD Specialist i use £6k+ work of software at my disposal all day every day. if anyone else wants anything like this doe for car graphics etc i can turn anything in to a format that all good vinyl cutters can use or engravers

 

[masterbiker]

I just got back from the printers and he has done it a bit wrong. It looks great, but the way he has done it the cutter will pick up the construction of the logo and not the black bits if you know what i mean.

So if you could sort it out i would be realy greatful. I could sent the .eps file if that would make it easyer.

 

[masterbiker]

tis fine now, the guy who did the other one relised and sent a fixed version. So i got it all cut out and its now on the car. I will post some pics when it gets light tomorrow. only cost me £42 for it and its 800mm x 800mm.

 

[Ed]

80cm by 80cm???? Thats HUGE!

Good point, I was thinking micras and stuff here.. Good luck fitting them also.

 

[masterbiker]

I did quite well fitting it, there is only 2 small wrinkles and about 4 bubbles about the size of a 5p. And i mannaged to get rid most of the wrinkels and all the bubbles.

I might see if they can make some that will fit the mirror covers, but as they are realy convex i think i might get the the shop to put them on.

Here is the vinyl cut out and stuck on the roof of my mini. btw its water on the roof not bubbles in the vinyl!!

 

[joe boy micra]

why would u want that on your roof? any specific reason

 

[masterbiker]

Thats a question that I should realy need to answer, but here goes anyway

Its the same reason why someone would want chequers put on their mini roof, but i wanted something different to what you can get in the bmw options list. You could say its just a large bummper sticker, its there because I like it and want it there not because some joe boy bloggs thinks that it looks stupid. Its also the same as buying alloy wheels instead of having steel rims, as the majority of people get them for the look rather than, if the wheel is lighter or wider.

 

[mean micra]

yes my friend chequers are nice but nothing different...

i like yours tho... almost tribal..

 

[masterbiker]

a few people have mentioned the tribal thing to me, but i designed a similar thing when I was in 2nd year at school about 1996 which this one was based on so if it is tribal you could say I started the trend (but as very few people saw it thats very unlikley). My maths teacher wasn't to pleased, but she was more worried about me than angry. She thought there was something wrong with my mind. Bloody amature psychologists.
