I need some help. My company has some logo wear that I am supposed to wear at events (we are a timing compnay) and I really don't like what they have provided me. They have given me the green light to have some of my own stuff made (at my expense which I am cool with) but I need to have our logo prepared for the sportswear company that will do the production. I have tried to get the artwork from the guys I work with and it has been like pulling teeth. I must take things into my own hands. Anyone able to help out a fellow monkey?

there are no screens in vector artwork. it is solid until the printer screens it. the light blue is just a percentage of the dark blue. the file is still 2 colors.H8R said:
What he sent me will work great. It's not screenprint. Embroidered. So the color part shouldn't matter. I learned today that embroidery is charged by the stitch and thread color doesn't really matter. I learned a lot today. Thanks everyone and especially Stinkyboy.

Coolness. Good luck!
BTW - I am FINALLY starting to do custom screenprinting in addition to the printing I do for our business. Let me know down the road if you ever need screened goods.
And no Stinky, I still won't do 4 color proccess work for you. I can, but I won't. :eviltongu
Ah, ok. I need to dive into Illustrator soon or later. I have Photoshop down (at least enough anyway) and I can do AutoCad, but I never spent enough time on Illustrator.Jimmy_Pop said:
Is there an alternative for Illustrator in the same way that GIMP is an alternative to Photoshop?
I actually use Macromedia Freehand because I'm faster in it, and then I can convert to Illustrator for most of the rest of the world. It's Coke and Pepsi though. Definitely learn Illustrator for your biz!H8R said:

Illustrator makes my brain hurt.
And photoshop is the king, gimp needs to have a ballgag stuffed in it's face and put back in it's box.

I can do it, but I just hate doing it manually. It takes an auto press to dial in the dot gain and get it looking right. I'd rather not do 4 color half assed.stinkyboy said:
I used to work for a company that did shirts for the SF MOMA and Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art. We did reproductions of many famous paintings on tee shirts. Full color process Frida Kahlo paintings, Jeff Koons stuff, duotone prints of Robert Maplethorpe photos, etc, etc.
It's a pain but very rewarding when it comes out right.

But did the shirt taste as yummy as rainbow trout? If not, I'll pass.stinkyboy said:

I really like gimp's, measure tool. Photoshop doesn't have that.
I have been using photoshop for a few years. Will I be able to figure it out, or will I need classes or books first?

I don't see it. There is rulers, but they don't help nearly as much.

All you need to know about Photoshop is in Photoshop's Help file or on the web.
Books are for dinosaurs.
There it is! I have never noticed it.
What's with everyone biting Echo's steez these days?
And Illustrator is the shiznit, ask Transcend he loves it so much his brain implodes when I send him .ai files to slice up into web graphics. Where's them buttons you want me to create, holmes?
