Great idea ye had, Mister Fortune.

Red-Handed Jill Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Are you converting your graphics? In Photoshop, when saving to jpg, you have the option of choosing the quality of your graphic. Also, it depends on the original photo. If you took it with a digital camera, the resolution is pretty important, particularly if you are increasing the size. I typically use a high resolution and shrink it down - looks better.
Pirate Petee Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 If your pulling images of the web, they usually 72 dpi, which is low res. 300 is industry standard for printing. You can go from larger to smaller without loosing quality, but not the other way around.
Black Syren Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Yep all my images are going smaller. Still come out blurry. However I will work on it. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v519/Dara286/trident01-11.png If you got a dream chase it, cause a dream won't chase you back...(Cody Johnson Till you Can't)
CaptainCiaran Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 If she's not been nominated, I'd like to also nominate Red-Handed Jill. Her signature graphic be very nice. It's crisp, simple and to the point, yet with a 'don't mess with me' kinda pyrate feelin.

greenighs Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 I like Redd Oktober's very much, and Bonnie Red Weasel and William Red Wake's as well. Freaky, and my favorite color is green. Go figure.

Hawkyns Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 I nominate Hawkins. His sig photo is really cool. Thanks, Kass Hawkyns Cannon add dignity to what otherwise would be merely an ugly brawl I do what I do for my own reasons. I do not require anyone to follow me. I do not require society's approval for my actions or beliefs. if I am to be judged, let me be judged in the pure light of history, not the harsh glare of modern trends.
kass Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 See what I mean? Thanks for posting, Hawkins, so we can see it. Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
CaptainCiaran Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 Blimey! E'rytime I think I'm not goin' to make another nomination, I find a signature banner that I really like. Gentleman of Fortune, in addition to me nominations of Rummy3 and Red-Handed Jill, please add Captain P.E.W.. His is quite awesome, too. Ye have the solemn word of a pirate that I shan't nominate any more.

William Brand Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 I would like to second the nomination for Redd Oktober.
greenighs Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 Can someone make a gallery of all the nominations?
King's Pyrate Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 I really admire some of the members signature "graphics" here at the pub. Somebody has put some serious time into them... so I thought I would have a little contest.I will take nominations this week for the top signature graphics, and then post a poll next week. The biggest vote getter will get a prize from my treasure chest. I am not sure what yet, but it could be anything from a T-shirt, a set of original buttons, a book, fabric for a costume etc..... On second thought, I will say that the dead line for "entries" is 20 February. That will give some folks that have been meaning to get a signature graphic together a chance (and maybe some motivation?. Good luck to all! GoF so many Great signature graphics out there...I agree that all the nominations are worthy........If you have a commercial division I would like to nominate Ace of the Harbor.....I have admired his since he first posted it. Just love that pirate logo on the left. Fair Winds King's Pyrate
blackjohn Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 I'm not sure what this has to do with Plunder, so I'm moving it to... someplace. Like Pirate Pop! As far as I can tell, this is all about pretty art, and art is poppy to me. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Gentleman of Fortune Posted February 16, 2006 Author Posted February 16, 2006 Aye John... I'm not sure what this has to do with Plunder I guess it doesn't really have to do with any of the forum titles... its about as poppy as it is plunder i guess. I just thought it would be a nice gesture. and since prizes are plunder... but if you don't want it in PLUNDER.... GOF Come aboard my pirate re-enacting site http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/ Where you will find lots of information on building your authentic Pirate Impression!
blackjohn Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 hahahaha... ooohhhh... Anyway... I know who I'm voting for. Though I can be swayed by bribes. And I agree, it is a nice gesture. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Mad Grace Oakum Posted February 16, 2006 Posted February 16, 2006 I havfta Nominate Guinivere! The POTC cereal box banner is craftily done and tickled me fancy! Twelve thumbs up..*has to borrow thumbs* Why thank ye!! *blushes*
greenighs Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Sooooo .... did I miss the awards ceremony?
Skull pyrate Carter Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Aww, crap. I just found out I was in this competition... which is funny because I designed a few others on here, and theirs aren't on here... Jayme's, Leatherneck's, etc... Thanks guys... It seems the others had more mentions than mine, but truly It is true about the "just being nominated" thing..
