Calling all artists, with the 2009 DVI scarf all settled, we are putting the call out to prepare for the pending announcement of the team name and colors. The key ingredients Sons of Ben font is Sebaldus Gottisch and available to download free at dafont.com Dimensions are 520 x 65 If you use the Sons of Ben logo, the Jolly Franklin, do not alter it in any way. If the team's colors are a drastic change, the JF may change. If they are similar, they may not. If you'd like to use the team name in your design, don't wait to submit. Use a place filler. Full team name Philadelphia Names, if you are just using the name, use Names in your design. Apart from the JF, design your scarf using black, white, and grey. We will ask you to modify them as we move forward in the process. Keep in mind, we will be doing traditional knit and summer weight with the same design. You may submit as many entries as you like. If one of your sides is selected for the scarf, you will win the scarf(s) with your design. Post your artwork here for consideration. Submission deadline is 5/1/09
Our very first scarf (2007) I'm hoping Dills remembers how many we ordered. Our second scarf with the Color Bars on one side and the Join, Or Die on the other only sold 27 pieces.
heh, brings back memories of trying to take a picture of the skyline with my camera phone with doing 70+ mph on I-95 one morning just so i could put an accurate comcast tower in there.
Bryan - this is a work in progress. But is this what you want as far as the "Apart from the JF, design your scarf using black, white, and grey." ?
suggestion ... make the "O" in "SOB" lowercase. i would think the black/white/grey are placeholders that should be easily modified and replaced once the official team colors are announced.
Good start, and yes Dillon is correct, the colors are placeholders that the artist can easily modified
That's already been taken care off - I just wanted something up so I know if I'm doing this correctly. I think I still design it in SoB colors - it's too difficult to keep the colors straight in gray scale. I'll change it to post the final design.
go to IMAGESHACK, click on the "browse" button, find your image and click "open", then "start upload". once the upload is complete (you'll see the progress bars moving), copy any of the provided URLs and paste into your post. if you use the "direct link to image" address, use the "insert image" icon when composing your post and paste the URL into the pop-up box.
Figured I would post both because the black/white/gray got a little distorted when I changed the colors...not really an expert on this sort of stuff
this is my first go. i think ill try another one later. if anyone has any ideas on how to improve it, im listening the second one has smaller text, and it is seperated
