NYYKing Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 needs way better colors. Black on dark blue is NOT a good color combination. also, don't forget to give Trues credit since this overlay looks like its based on Trues World Series overlay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYYKing Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 my suggestion: make the blue darker, and change the font colors to white to create a sharper contrast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emil Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Those are pretty good, but don't try to put so much color in them. I like them kinda neutral (sp). I liked the Braves one better :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted November 26, 2005 Author Share Posted November 26, 2005 thanks. The braves one I put more effort into. Want me to make a giants one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Ok, here's the Giants overlay Version 1.0 I have submitted uit for d/load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYYKing Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 uck, the Giants one is just awful The use of colors need to be more subtle, and once again, black on a dark color is NOT good. You should take some art classes or something. I thought the color gradient for the portion with STL and SF was good, why not use that for the rest of the bar? and once again, USE WHITE FONT!

jogar84 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 yup, a gradient would be nice. Use the gradient tool in photoshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYYKing Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 for the Detroit Tigers, you can't even read the Tigers on Fox logo. And once again, the colors need to be more subtle. for the bar, use dark to darker color with white for the font or very light to light color with black font. The font and the background must have very distinct contrast or you won't be able to read it. For white to dark blue, this creates a problem in contrast. If you use white font, it won't show up on top. If you use black, it won't show up on bottom. That's why you need to use subtle gradients and not sharp color changes.

JoeRudi26 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Make a Athletics one please? I second this. And btw, IMO these don't look too bad. Thanks for the work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 well, when these are installed, they dont look too bad. But when there smaller, they look terrible. I'm making an A's right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medric822 Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hey, if you could find a large photo/computer image of the A's logo (just the "A's" will be better), it would make life much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
