How is this 2nd Baseman problem going to be resolved?

For now, Cedeno will be starting at 2B, and DeRosa will be back in a few days, so as of right now they are my options. If neither one produces on a decent level, I'll be forced to dig further into the farm system.

Hell of a job on this so far.

There's something I don't like about that schedule though - maybe it needs a background? Either a picture or some sort of design?

Thanks sf. I agree about the schedule, actually I was going to change the scheme from April's, but to be honest, in the midst of posting for each game, May just sort of snuck up on me.

Thanks for the input, and look for June's schedule to be 'updated'.

I'm not all negative though - I love the most recent starting lineup card. :D

I don't take it that way, trust me. If a person can't handle constructive criticism, he shouldn't be putting himself out there. BTW, it's all in fun, right?

Way to squeak out the win despite the power outage after the 3rd. :smile:

The offspeed stuff is killing me, Maestro. I was off balance the whole game. If I guess change up/curve ball, I get smoked with a 97 mph fastball. If I guess fastball, I end up with a cramp in my foot chasing the 78 mph changeup.

It was definately a duel. Wood had a one hitter up until the bottom of the sixth, and he just weakened thereafter. I had to pull him if I was going to sit on this one run lead.

Jack Wilson hit a b o m b in the bottom of the 8th and I snagged it on the warning track.

All in all, it was a good game.

Hey guys, there are other people wanting to know if I can send them one of my templates. As I said, I don't mind sharing, that's really what this site is all about.

I'm not sure if Trues has even seen this thread or not, but I've been thinking maybe I could ask him if I could upload the ones I'm using if there are enough people that want to use them. I've never uploaded anything here, so without going into it, I really have no idea where to start.

As I stated before, I really would rather not see all the dynasties look similar, but it's not really a big deal. The templates are pretty easy to customize to your liking, and it might actually be kind of interesting to see the varieties.

If I were you, I would upload only a base version of your templates, that way people would be forced to make their own modifications and dynasties would still be unique.

That's what I had planned to do. They wouldn't have any need for certain things like team logos (the teams I've played against already). And finding (or making) your own backgrounds are endless. You can practically put whatever you want for your background, plus that could be a defining point in making them look different.

I figured I would just upload the 'structure' of the template, which still has everything intact. I would have to take one of the ones I've already used, remove the background and team logos, and just leave whatever text was already there. People would change that to whatever they want.

I don't know if you would have the time or would prefer to do this, but how about you create a tutorial. You can highlight some of the cutting techniques and different effects that you use. That way users may have more variety in creating their post-game/pre-game reports than they would if they were to utilize the template. Just a thought.

Then everyone's dynasty would look as good as his! It would leave us nothing to live up to. Between your two dynasties, we have an excellent model of what a great dynasty is.

I never do the same thing the same way twice, and I don't consider myself any kind of guru in Photoshop. I just mess around with things until they come out the way I like them.

I think most people should do the same, that's what could ultimately set them apart.

I like that template as well. It will let people customize as they like. Don't upload anything else JR (you have worked to hard) to set you dynasty apart from others.

Thanks guys, but think about all the hard work that's went into the unis, stadiums, cyberfaces and so on..

I've donated in the past, but I've downloaded more than my share of other people's hard work. I really only have 2 templates that could be 'universal'. The Post Game Scoreboard and the Lineup Template. The Highlight board changes everyday, so I really don't have a "Template" for that to speak of.

Anyway, if there are enough people that want them, just post it in this thread. If not, life goes on. ;)

I almost forgot, here is how the other one would be uploaded:
