OsFan1983 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) This is an update to my current project that can be found HERE I'll be updating the logos for the other templates and also adding the 2009 Topps card found in the game. Here's a preview, please tell me what you think. Here are the previews of the other series in the download 1962 Topps normal and aged texture shown 1991 Upper Deck 1992 Bowman normal and foil edition shown I know the screenshot is from MVP, just being lazy I guess. :p Edited April 10, 2009 by OsFan1983 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro23 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Looks good man. We've got a thread dedicated to Baseball card templates around here somewhere. I'll see if I can find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramenite Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Nice work. That's something I wouldn't have even given a thought to edit. But now that I see it, it looks good. Next up the '87 Topps with the wood grain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dacubz Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 (edited) I've been looking all over for this stuff. Phenominal job, I'd love to get anything else that you're working on. I'm in a few OOTP leagues, and cards are my responsibility. Edited April 11, 2009 by Dacubz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in a few OOTP leagues, and cards are my responsibility. Well I have been working on a few things just for league play. I been refining these for my MVP 94 season I'm playing. Kind of a fun way to show off major news in your season. Daily Newspaper A nice daily snapshot of your recent game. Sporting News Good for a weekly rundown of your team or around the league. TV This is for some big announcements, whether it's a major trade or impressive victory. Made it so any era could be shown authentically. (static can be adjusted for a clear picture of course ) I never really showed these off because I wasn't sure if there would be any demand for them. I could make more newspaper templates, as I'm sure everyone doesn't want the Baltimore Sun reporting all of their news. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Sharpshooter Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Wow. You guys going to be sharing these templates? I too have been looking for all these things with no luck. BTW, I have a folder with all the major magazine name logos if anyone is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW, I have a folder with all the major magazine name logos if anyone is interested. You can get all of the card templates except the 2009 Topps card from the link in my first post. I will release the other templates when I'm satisfied with them. I think the Sporting News template needs more work. I think I will be keeping the classic look of that magazine as the new design just doesn't set it apart from other magazines anymore. Sharpshooter, I would be interested in any logos you got. Any help is appreciated. Incorporating all the logos is what is taking so long with these templates. I will probably have to include a guide with this release, because the 2009 Topps card uses certain layer options some photoshop novices may find daunting. I think I'll leave the team background color as a Color Overlay. I was going to make the team logo and color linked, but if you want to make a custom team or minor league team, you'd be sol. I figure the more modular the templates are, the more use people can get out of them. Then there is the issue of complexity, so I think the guides would be a good idea.

wtferrell Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 This is awesome. One problem that I'm having however, is that Photoshop says that some fonts are missing or something when I go to open the front of the card, so i can't edit name, etc. Any thoughts on why it does that? I'd love to use your works if I could figure out how on earth to edit the name, etc on front of the card templates. The backs work just fine, but for some reason, fronts aren't.

Homer Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 it means you need to install the fonts his templates use on your computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrumpeteerNYR Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 good stuff as always. glad to see my basic sporting news template is being put to great use ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtferrell Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 How do I know which fonts they are though? haha. OsFan1983, what fonts are you using for the front of your cards? The backs show up just fine. Also, awesome job on the TV/newspaper/mags. I'd love to have the templates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to use your works if I could figure out how on earth to edit the name, etc on front of the card templates. The backs work just fine, but for some reason, fronts aren't. That's strange because the fonts I'm using are pretty basic. 2009 Topps BankGothic Light BT (TrueType font) Baskerville Old Face (OpenType font) The rest use Arial of some sort. ( I guess it was a popular font, or they were just unoriginal ) Arial Regular Arial Bold Arial Narrow *All are OpenType fonts Back Template Arial Regular Arial Narrow Check your Windows/Fonts folder for Arial Bold. What version of photoshop are you using? Maybe download the file again if it was corrupted, but I'm sure you already tried that. If it's a problem for even one person, I'll include the fonts I use for the templates in future releases. good stuff as always. glad to see my basic sporting news template is being put to great use ! I assure you my work is original and if I used any part of another person's work I would credit them for it. If you're the person who had that awesome NY Mets dynasty thread, I did look to that for inspiration. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
