dojdave 09-07-07, 08:48 AM I would also love to learn how to do them myself....any how to guides laying around?
Here's one for R_Willis, for Monday night's NFL game:

No, no how-to guide. Photoshop is a beast to learn, and I barely know enough to do these tickets. Pick up Photoshop Elements for less than $100 and start playing with layers.

ND23,
I had so much positive reaction from the first ticket you made me (last fall), I was wondering if you could make another one for me. I would like the ticket for the Dec 17 Monday Night football game featuring Chicago vs Minnesota. My theater is called "The Old Woods Theater". Kickoff at 8:30. Doors open at 8:00. We're all Bears fans, so anything Chicago Bears or Monday Night Football related for a background on the ticket would be great.

Nice work ND23! Thanks for the file as well! Hope to put it to good use soon. :D You wouldn't have any raw images hosted anywhere would you? If not, no biggie.
Thanks again!
No, I get all of my images off of the 'net. Happy searching!

olelucky 11-23-07, 01:22 PM Oh yeah....Moore's Theater...if you can get that on there somewhere, and will be in HD, and 5.1
olelucky,
I'm building an HTPC, and my photo-editing PC is down. When I'm done building the HTPC, I'll get Photoshop installed on it, and I'll be back in business.
But I'm having big issues with the build (can't get Windows to recognize the hard drive), and I can't get Windows installed.
Sorry,

Is your computer up and running now? I wanted to see if I could get tickets for UFC 79: Nemesis. It is on December 29th I believe.
chinadog 12-22-07, 08:48 AM Hey ND, have you thought about some generic Superbowl tickets yet? I'm thinking about getting invites out after the first of the year.
Bud
Yes, I'm back up and running now. And we just got back from a week at Disneyland. Leaving again to visit out-of-town family the day after Christmas.
Sorry to those who couldn't get tickets during the downtime, especially for the Mayweather/Hatton fight.
I should be able to do a Nemesis ticket this weekend.
And yes, Bud, I will do another Super Bowl ticket this year... I'll have something available before I go back to work on the 2nd of January.

You could add in Young Family Theater and list the time as 9pm. I am in central time.
I hope I am still in time!!
It appears that he has left town for a bit.
Any advice on making those slight changes myself?
Photoshop?
Sorry for the delay... had to get the in-town family out-the-door so I could get back to "work"! ;)

Awesome! I thought by your comments above that you were leaving the day after X-mas and returning to work on Jan 2nd.
That ticket is great!
Is there a way to do something like arrive at 8pm show starts at 9pm or event starts at 9pm? If not, that is fine. I'm not sure that would even look good.
Also wanted to ask you if the best looking tickets are still done by having a 4x6 print done at a store?
Sorry, RxMan1... I am now out-of-town, so I unfortunately can't make another update in time for the fights.
And yes, aside from printing them at home at whatever size your printer can handle, the nicest outcome usually comes from printing a 4x6 at your local Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Target, etc. photo center.
Enjoy the fights!

Agreed +1! Guys, ND does a great job, and is quick to turn away from discussions about compensation for his work. But if you like what he makes for you, I think it's appropriate to send a little "appreciation" his way if you choose!
Can't wait to see the Super Bowl tickets again this year!
Thanks for the kind words. Happy Holidays!

Understatement of the year!! And I agree 150%, thankfully for every 10 selfish know-it-alls here on AVS there is 1 ND. I'm ashamed that I hadn't made the same statement sooner. The tickets you created for me and my family were great and we all thank you.
This may be better suited for PM, but how/where would I send a nice thank you "card" ;) to show my appreciation for the time you spend doing this.

Little story:
I almost quit doing these last spring. A lady in Texas was using Google to search for a way to have customized invitations done for her upcoming wedding, and somehow this thread made it into her search results. She read through the thread, and sent me an email message (or maybe it was a PM, I forget) asking if I could do a baseball-themed ticket invitation for her. She couldn't find anyone else to do this for her. She strongly hinted that she would pay for the service, though I told her I didn't care how much, and it would be completely up to her.
She and her fiance were big baseball fans, so they had their engagement pictures taken on the field in a baseball stadium (a minor league one, I think). She sent me about a dozen digital photos of their various poses, and we worked out the text to go on the tickets. I mocked up a couple of dozen different layouts, using the various photos, some oriented horizontally, and some vertically, and different color schemes. They were to pick the one they liked best, and then go have it printed and mailed to their guests. We went through several rounds of change-this and oh-here's-another-photo-we-want-to-try.
I don't know how many hours I spent on them, but it was quite a few. Much more than the hour or two it takes me to do a home theater ticket. She thanked me for the job, and I stopped hearing from her. I figured she was swamped with wedding stuff. The day after the wedding, I sent her a nice reminder with my PayPalID if she still wanted to "donate." No response. Maybe she's on her honeymoon. Two weeks later, I sent her one final reminder. No response.
I'm not sure why I got upset, since I did tell her it would be up to her, but this one felt like a "job" and I thought it might lead to other things (small side business, maybe?), so I put a lot into it and expected a little reward for the effort. But I didn't get a single referral from any of their guests, and never got more than that thank-you from her. Oh well. I got a little irritated, and disgruntled, and didn't really want to do any more.
Later that spring, my neighbor (who was impressed with the Super Bowl tickets I had distributed for the annual Super Bowl party at our house) asked if I could do a ticket for her son's upcoming birthday party. They were going to a local college baseball game for the party, so they wanted a baseball theme around that team's game. This one was for a friend, so I quickly found some images to use, and knocked out the ticket design and helped her get it printed locally. Her son loved it, and that's all I needed to hear to get back on the wagon.
Her husband contacted me two weeks ago, because his boss was doing something similar for his daughter's upcoming birthday party, this time at a local college's women's basketball game. He asked if I could do it, I said yes, and he forwarded me the details. I knocked out the ticket and sent it out, and the guy brings me a twenty dollar bill one night when I'm not home, and leaves it with my wife (I would have protested that it was too much). Then, after the party, he sends me an email message thanking me again for the service, and asking if it would be okay if he shared my contact information with his guests, who were all asking about the tickets. I tell him yes, and that the $20 was too much, and he says he's going to tell the guests he gave me $50 so that they will too!
Anyway, I don't own the images I use for these tickets, and bugman72 deserves the credit for the template I use, so I don't feel comfortable in "charging" for the service. That just wouldn't seem right. The thanks you offer here is enough for me - thanks for the kind words. It keeps me going!
ND
HeyNow^ 01-03-08, 11:33 AM ND,
Your time is valuable. You should be able to get something for the amount of time you spend doing these tickets. Even if you are okay with a "thanks", "we loved them" etc. But that is up to you. I know you are not into this to make a killing, but at least think about "breaking even" for your time. I have not used your services, however, I am sure there are many folks that really appreciate the amount of time you spend doing this for giggles.
There are others that offer services around here and indicate that if the end recipient wants to donate something that is fine. They are leaving that up to them.
There will always be someone out there that will take advantage of others generosity. There are also folks that love showing their appreciation.
Hang in there!
SKYWLKR 01-03-08, 06:08 PM What start time would you like to have on the ticket?
6:00 with Kick off at 7:00 CST
would be awesome!
thanks!!

Here's a generic Super Bowl XLII ticket, sans any theater name. I decided upon the universally-accepted practice of using Eastern time, but if someone wants this customized to say another start time, I can do that.
Bud, this one's for you, so you can get those invitations out!
Once the teams are known (ahem, Patriots... Packers...), I'll update it with some helmets, move the "SUPER BOWL XLII" up to the top section, and add the team names to that middle stripe.
BTW, the picture on the left side is from the inside of University of Phoenix Stadium, a truly beautiful stadium wasted on the Cardinals (sorry, I still hate them for leaving St. Louis, even though it was the best thing that ever happened to the city).

chinadog 01-04-08, 09:40 PM ND, thanks man!
If you don't mind, for the theater, just do "Blazing Ridge Cinema presents" in a royal blue (sticks out) and push down the "live from" so its in the middle between teh AFC and NFC symbols...
I appreciate it! I'll start working on the invites this weekend!
Bud
ND23,
Thank you for the UFC ticket!! I know it was at a hard time with traveling for the holidays. The tickets received a ton of compliments. One guy's wife got mad when she saw the ticket because she thought he was going to Vegas for the fight!
Thanks again.
I like the Super Bowl tickets.

SKYWLKR 01-06-08, 12:04 AM Nice Job!!!
I gave a pair to My MIL and she freaked when I asked if she was going.
She thought they were real tickets, I asked her if she read the ticket and then she got even more excited.
The Chick at the Photo lab (had 10 done, 1 hour on 5X7's for $.58 for a pair), her cousin is a first string player for LSU so I gave her a pair of tickets. She was VERY impressed and appreciative and is going to frame it with an auto graphed picture of her cousin.
Again, Thank you.
And any way I could get the .psd version?

Can I jump on the bandwagon, same ticket as Patriot12 but can you make it "Highland Cinema Presents"
Can you also make one with just the Patriots in case GB doesn't make it (cause we all know the Pats are ;)) Thanks for your efforts.
Edit: Nevermind about the Pat's only, I read your comment about fixing if the prediction is wrong. Thanks again.

Oh NO! How much will it take to switch the tickets? I also would like your paypal id so I can thank you.
ND23:
I appreciate you making the modifications to the generic ticket. After looking at the other tickets that you made, I really liked how the team helmets and team names were on the ticket -- that makes it look realistic.
Now that the teams are known, I was wondering if you would be able to add that on to the ticket that you made for me. Also, if you could add under the admission price - complimentary, the following: Bring Something To Share. I don't know if that is going to be too long to fit on the ticket, if that is the case, then I will just mention that in an e-mail I send out. Lastly, if you could put next to where it says admit one, the following: Bring a Guest.
Thank you very much!! :D

Sorry you have to go through the extra work. Can you make one more modification for me. In the stadium area to the left can you add "PARDON OUR APPEARANCE DURING CONSTRUCTION", Thanks.

I don't know if its been covered, but what is the best way to print these? what paper? size? setting?
Storme,
See posts 161 and 116... does that help?
I'm going to upload mine to Costco's photo center later today, and have 40 of 'em printed. With the price of inkjet ink these days, I'd rather have them printed as photos at a photo center rather than print at home on photo paper.

I dont have photoshop, but I do have my own photo kiosk thing so I can print 4x6 pictures NP, but how do I get 2 on each 1 w/o cropping?
rutlian 01-21-08, 12:29 PM Hi ND23,
Can you make me one also Ruthplex hometheater I appreciate it my friends will be thrilled when they see this. Thank you. with the helmets. thank you very much.
Peter
Last year, when I built a 4x6 template in Photoshop and stacked two ticket images in it (to try to get two tickets out of each 4x6 print, instead of just one), Costco's printer did cut a little bit off of the top and bottom of the print, so my "Please join us..." line got cut off a bit on half of my tickets.
So, I don't do that anymore... it wasn't worth saving a few cents. I just print each ticket as a 4x6 glossy photo, and then cut them out.
I do recommend getting a single photo printed to see what it will look like before you order a bunch of them. Different systems do different things with cropping.
I just finished sending an order for 1 print to my local Costco (I'm going there for lunch in a few). I'll pick up the print, pay my 18 cents for it, and if they didn't ruin it with cropping or bad colors or anything, I'll order another 39.
taxman48 01-21-08, 12:36 PM ND23: if you have the time, I would like " The Scala Home Theater Presents" and the same as the rest of the above tickets with the helmets.. thanks in advance.. please let me donate to your Paypal also .. matt

Thanks ND, this is great.
Well, Costco severely cropped mine this time (glad I only ordered one). Basically, their online application doesn't resize the image to fit the 4x6 print size I had selected. When I previewed the print in their online application, I could see the cropping that would be done, but for some reason I didn't believe it would actually happen. :rolleyes:
So, I had to create a blank white 4x6 canvas in Photoshop and insert my ticket onto it and save it as a 4x6 inch file.
When I uploaded this image, and previewed it before I ordered, the preview did not show the cropping I saw on my try earlier today. So, I gambled and went ahead and ordered 40. I'll pick them up on the way home from work tonight.
If these turn out, and you plan on having yours printed at a photo center, let me know and I'll crank out a version of your ticket resized to this 4x6 inch dimension.
ND
thats pretty sweet lookin. the only one in this thread is the superbowl one, is there others? that is a pretty neat idea. I am new here but this is a very informational site. thank yall.
Kerry
Welcome, Kerry! If you take a gander through the previous pages of this thread, you'll see all kinds of events for which I've made tickets.
The Super Bowl and the LOST season premiere are the two "current" events which are available. Other than the Super Bowl, I haven't been very proactive about creating tickets just in case somebody has a need for a certain event, like I used to. It's become more of a reactive thing - let me know what you need, give me a little lead time, and I should be able to help you out.

DaveWolf 01-21-08, 08:42 PM ND,
I would like to get a SB ticket template if you would be so kind! Your work is awesome! This will be a great invitation to our party! I was just talking with my wife during dinner what to do about invitations, and then I stumbled across your post on the boards.
Here is the info we would like (if possible):
1- Across the top, it could say "Please Join David, Katie & Katelyn For"
2- I like the "Admit One - This Date Only"
3- Admission Price = Complimentary
4- On the left tab, it can just say Super Bowl XLII (we don't really have a full home theater)
5- Time is 5:30
THANKS SO MUCH! This is awesome. Please feel free to contact me or send me a PM if you have questions.

ewomack 01-22-08, 12:19 PM Hey!
Your tickets are AMAZING! I wanted to see if there was any chance of getting a .psd file of your awesome ticket. We actually want to use it for a church function and were going to swap out some of the NFL logos and Superbowl logos with some of our Student Ministry Logos and the XLII logo with more like Super Sunday 1.
Is there any chance you can share that file? If not, what about a jpg of the ticket with no text?
Last try - you do an amazing job and i'd hate to inconvenience you, but if none of the above works, what if i sent you our logos and text, could you create?
These are amazing and we want to hand them out this weekend to encourage students to still attend our super bowl themed service the following weekend (we will not actually be showing the game so we would change the game time to show our two service times, etc.)
Please get back to me, i'd really appreciate it!
Thanks

Interesting... so, a movie night ticket, with an ATV riding theme? Will you be showing your ATV riding videos at such an event, or a (Hollywood) movie? I'll assume you don't want a specific date or time, so we can just leave that open if you'd like. Is there a specific place on your website where I can find some good image files to use?

Looks like www.imageshack.us is being a bit flaky (timing out a llllllloooooot today), which could potentially prevent the "clickable thumbnail" image in these posts from displaying.
Sorry, but I can't really control that... but I have found that hitting refresh on your browser sometimes succeeds. That, or come back later when they're not having issues.

oman321 01-22-08, 02:40 PM Just thought I would share what I did for my tickets...
I copied the photo and pasted it to my pictures. I then copied again and pasted to a word document. Once in word you can resize the image to fit on a letter or legal sized page. I did legal so I could fit four on a page. I then printed on a color printer and since I have access to a paper cutter at work I was able to trim it down. I also have access to a laminator at work so I was able to get all fout tickets into a sheet and laminate the tickets. I then trimmed once again on the paper cutter.
The end result is a high gloss ticket that doesn't smudge or leave finger prints.

yea that is what I was thinking but now that I read you reply it my be better to do a movie (hollywood) theme huh? Friends get together and I do show some but we mainly watch movies or play ps3. Have you done one with the Transformers charactors? It seems I have watched that movie 25 times since I got the projector...LOL I do have 1000's of pics on my picture page but after looking through them it would take some photoshopping to get them to work and thats to much to ask for. Thanks for you help.
Mudcon:
In that case, see post #14. Would you like one of these "Movie Night" tickets personalized with "Mudcon Productions Home Theater Presents" in the top line? Let me know.
And a transformers ticket sounds like fun! Maybe I can work on that after the Super Bowl.

Good solution! Thanks for posting! I had mine printed at Costco last night, and they came out great (one ticket per 4x6 glossy photo). Now I need to cut out 40 of 'em. Wish I had access to a paper cutter (might have to take 'em to Kinko's and use theirs).
So, if anyone is planning on having theirs printed at a photo center, let me know in your request, and I'll convert it to an image with the right dimensions.

Awesome Job, you do great work! Looks like your tickets turned out great! What finish did you have the photo place use for your tickets? Did you do anything else to them besides cutting them out?
Most DEFINITELY a CARDINALS FAN!!! Go CARDS!!!!
Are you not in the area anymore? If you are still in the area, we are having an AVS meet hopefully in Feb. or Mar. timeframe. If you are interested just PM me.
Thanks Again for the ticket!
Cheers,
JJ
I choose the glossy finish for my 4x6 prints. The only thing I wish I could do to the ticket (after cutting it out) would be to use one of those little scrapbooking tools that looks like a miniature pizza cutter, where the cutting wheel causes perforations to be made on the paper when you roll it over the paper. I would roll it along one of the ticket's vertical lines to create a "stub." But I never did get myself one of those tools.
Sometimes I wish the ticket was a bit bigger, but printing as a 5x7 or larger starts to be a little cost prohibitive when you're printing nearly 50 tickets.
No, I'm not in the STL area anymore... I moved to the Kansas City area in 1996. But I'm still a Cardinals fan, and I come back to STL a few times a year to visit my family members who are still in the area (now in Waterloo, IL).
rutlian 01-24-08, 12:20 PM Hi ND,
Can you also size mine with 4x6 the one you did for me (Ruthplex hometheater) so I can print it over costco. And do you just copy this to a cd-r and bring it to costco or wal-mart for 4x6 size, is that how you do it to be printed? sorry for the damn question? All have done was straight from digital camera memory card everytime I want our photo to be printed over costco or wal-mart. I have a hp photo printer but would like to have them printed in costco or walmart I just don't know how to present or insert in one of their kiosk machines where you print buy yourself.
Thanks,

Peter,
I find it much easier to upload the image to their website and order my prints online, then go pick them up when they are ready. For Costco, visit www.costcophotocenter.com and create an account. Much easier than burning a CD and playing with the kiosk, in my opinion.
And here's your ticket in the proper dimensions for 4x6 prints:

Sadly, I don't watch LOST. Someday, I'll either rent the DVDs or years from now when it is in syndication, I'll set up a DVR to record all the episodes. From what I hear, I'm really missing out! But the only TV series I consider can't-miss, the only one I look forward to, the only one I worry about the DVR being set up for, is "Friday Night Lights." And hey, tomorrow's Friday! New episode!
Good idea - using the tickets for a drawing.. What's the prize?

heck yea that is perfect, if you can put at the top...... Mudcon Productions Home Theater Presents: can the colors come out alittle, like the superbowl ticket has very virbrant color where the end of the 500 ticket looks transparent almost? does that make since? god that is what I pictured thought.
Here ya go... I put your theater name at the top, and I adjusted the transparency of some of the images, so they are less transparent, and show up better. The only downside of this is that it becomes a little harder to read the black text that sits on top of the pictures. But I think I've got it tweaked so as much color appears while still being able to read the text.

This is my FIRST post! I have watched this forum for about a year, but didn't feel the urge to register to be able to post until I ran across your awesome tickets, you are AWESOME! I read page after page and forgive me if this was posted back a few pages, but can you send me a copy of a Super Bowl ticket so that I can change the text to read my info? I would greatly appreciate any help. Thanks for all of your inspiration!

Welcome!
The ticket's Photoshop template (.psd file) is available via a link in post #269. You'll need to get your own pictures (available in various places on the Internet) and change the text to your liking.
If you don't have Photoshop, or don't know how to do all of this yourself, let me know what you need and I'll be happy to make you a Super Bowl ticket.
Thanks,
ND
norabme 01-25-08, 11:32 PM Thank you! I did download that one last night...but I have a few questions if you don't mind.
1. Can you tell me some places to search for the pics...or where you found these in particular (they're so perfect!).
2. Can you also tell me what fonts you used? I'm one of those anal people that will (already have) searh for an hour to match one font - which doesn't in the end and I just run out of time. I know it's not really a big deal, but when I see something I like, I try and model it.
3. Where did you find the helmets? I really like them and they appear to have a transparent background. I have PS Elements as well as CS2, but it's too much to figure out. I'm not great at Elements, but I am learning different skills as the need arises...I think it was you that said something like that.
4. I have copied about 6 pages of this thread to my HD and I think I got one that had some rough directions on how to use the template with what you had on last years Super bowl ticket...are the instructions on #161 and #116 still accurate for how to achieve this years super bowl ticket as you did?
5. And is this template the same as the one that was on Mattsshack's blog site, but isn't avbailable now?
Sorry to be so much trouble, but I woulds really like to learn how to do these, they are great!
1. I found the Super Bowl trophy image by using Yahoo's Image search for "Lombardi trophy".
2. Fonts are Arial.
3. I got my helmet images from another Yahoo search. I used Photoshop's background removal tool to make them transparent.
4. Yes, the printing instructions in posts 116 and 161 are still valid. I didn't like what happened when I stacked two ticket images on a single 4x6 inch photo, as the top and bottom of the image were slightly cropped when the photos were printed. So, now I just do one ticket per photo, and I make sure to leave a little room at the edges for the printer's inevitable cropping.
5. Yes, same template MattShack was hosting.
Here ya go:

norabme 01-26-08, 11:24 PM Thank you SO much for your help. I hope I can learn to create these half as grand as yours, you rock!
Thanks again,

norabme 01-27-08, 12:41 AM ND,
I'm close to getting it done, everything but what tool do I use to get rid of the purple on the template ticket, but keep the lines for the different areas of the ticket? I'm using Elements 5.0.
Any help appreciated. Thanks for everything.
Nora
norabme 01-27-08, 02:16 AM ND,
Ok, I figured out it was just a matter of arranging the layers...whoo hoo, I figured something out! Now I just have some little tweaking to do...no wonder you used the background tool to make the images transparent. I'm just not that good at using it yet. I think I'll take a look and see if I can use something like the magic lasso tool to make it a little more quick and precise. Thanks again, sorry to be such a pain.

norabme 01-27-08, 02:50 AM ND,
Ok, I thought I wouldn't have anymore questions, but I was wrong...so sorry! My completed image doesn't look as smooth as yours...other than flattening the image, what else did you do?
Any help appreciated, and I promise to try and quite asking so many questions!
Nora
I really don't do anything special to make it smooth. I don't even flatten the image. I just paste in the layers, arrange them properly, and type in the right text in the text layers. Then save it as a .jpg.
Google and Yahoo images are great! I've used them for quite some time.
I use Powerpoint and adjust the slide to print size and save as jpg. Pretty easy.
I loved the ESPN photo of the stadium outside shot at dusk ( most likely page 3 of google search of Phoenix Stadium)
ND23 , that daytona 500 ticket was dead on. I havent printed it yet but it looks great. what was you paypal again? also let me know if you do a transformer movie night ticket. thanks again.

Chademt85 01-28-08, 07:58 PM Hey ND,
Your tickets are amazing. I would love to have a generic Nascar Dale Jr. 88 ticket with Davis Home Theatre at the top. Can I download Photoshop for free? How do I print them out? Thanks a bunch!
nd23 i need tickets with the the words Fresh's Crib Presents with pacific time thanks very much

Not sure what to put on a "generic" NASCAR Dale Jr. 88 ticket... do you want a Daytona 500 ticket, or do you want the Daytona 500 stuff and the date and time information taken off?
Printing has been covered in the thread, if I remember right, posts 116 and 161 have some hints.
You won't need Photoshop. Lots of programs like Word and Windows Picture Viewer can be used with the image I'll send you.
Give me some more detail on what you're looking for on your ticket.

tjpwood 01-28-08, 11:42 PM Hi ND. Your tickets look awesome. I don't suppose you can make a Super Bowl ticket for me? The start time is 3:30 PM and it is for the Paoli Cinema. Thanks so much!!!!
I went with a 3pm starting time, given you're in the Pacific time zone.

Could you please make me a superbowl ticket. Please put "MAKO's Maniacal Madness". Also could you add, if possible, Presented in HDTV and Presented in 5.1 Surround Sound, with a price of complimentary.
Thanks,
Rob

Sorry, I didn't check the thread yesterday. I'd offer to make you one as a keepsake, but given the outcome of the game, I'll assume that's not necessary. Let me know if that assumption is incorrect.

Hey ND,
I will take it however you want. Maybe a generic Nascar ticket with the Dale Jr. number in the background. Or a Daytona ticket with Jr. in the background. Anything would be appreciated. Thanks a bunch, Chad
A couple of customized Wrestlemania XXIV tickets for Rob:

Could you make another movie ticker for me? We are showing Bourne Supremacy on Feb 29th at 7:00 pm at the Old Woods Theater. Present in HD
Thanks!
Chademt85 02-21-08, 07:16 PM Hey ND,
I am still waiting for my ticket :) Just kidding, I am sure you are getting burnt out, but if you get time, can I get a "Survivor Ticket" now showing at the Davis Home Theatre. Thanks and send your paypal name. Chad
jamiecrane 01-19-09, 01:56 PM This thread is a little more than dead, but does anyone by chance have the template available for this tickets?
Looking to do something for the superbowl.

bugman72 01-19-09, 02:36 PM I'm the one that created the initial Photoshop template for the tickets, based off of the Excel spreadsheet. Are you wanting the PSD file or the Excel file? If you want the PSD, email me and I can send it to you. It's just under 7MB, so we may need to discuss transfer options.
DaveWolf 01-19-09, 02:47 PM Is ND not doing the custom prints this year? Thanks BugMaker for your contributions also. That is a nifty Excel ticket maker too.
jamiecrane 01-19-09, 03:47 PM ND is still doing the tickets but they are listed on the bay.
Jamie
bugman72 01-19-09, 03:49 PM Really. I hope he's not using my PSD template or is at least giving me SOME credit.
Isnt anyone doing Tickets this year? The past couple of years, someone always did one for people and this year I am done with my room and was hoping this thread (or another) would be doing the same.
Where can i get a similar custom ticket?
Coastal 01-24-09, 09:59 PM I can't find it on ebay.
How is it listed?
Any help is appreciated.
ND has made a few tickets for me.They were great!
pglover19 01-29-09, 08:09 AM I also need a custom ticket made quickly... Please HELP... Can someone please PM me....
This thread is really good and I don't think should be lost.
I was able to use the PSD and make a Cars 2 custom ticket. I hope it inspires others. I have updated the original PSD making it a bit easier to customize future tickets. If anyone would like me to send it to them, please let me know via PM and I'll send it to you.
I'm not sure if the attachment was successful, so I'll also post a link in case it didn't work. The picture can be found here: http://www.luchaks.com/gallery/Custom-Tickets/Cars-2-Ticket
Time to bump the thread again.
I used the template to put together a holiday movie showing for my kids. This one was a double feature with Charlie Brown Christmas and How the Grinch Stole Christmas.
I hope it inspires others.
