Finished Marquee - Page 11

I need an idea or a pic of a celebrity to replace my ugly mug with. Any ideas? Bush? Chenney (with gun)?

Here is a quick one. What do you think?

I think this is the doll you want!!

Hi there guys. Anybody heard from dachavez? I'm still waiting for him to help me finish the final design/modification of my marquee. I e-mailed him a couple of times and I never got a reply. This was from a few weeks ago. Just wondering if there's anybody out there that can help me. Thanks.

Volley. Just sent you a PM................

volley doesnt have time to do them for us anymore

Yeah, I think volley's wife is having a baby soon that's why.

Help! Is there anyone out there who's knowledgeable and kind enough to help me finish my marquee? I just need some little modifications on the text. Thanks.

So I've had this backburnered a while and got around to this again. Planning on a 2 foot x 6 foot backlit poster box for my concession area. Still need to get this printed out and build the box, but here is my latest work. I'l use real vinyl letters to do movie titles I think, but I may just put something into the image and be done with it.



Bud

Wow! That will be huge Bud!!
It will scale up that much without loss of detail??

-t

No need to scale, I created the file at the the actual size at a high resolution. The jpg here was scaled down to host it on the picture site. I actually had a sample printed a while back to double check it and I should be good to go!

Bud

these look real good. does anyone have a walk through of the steps with photos. that would really help. also, a lot of the links are down with the files, are they hosted anywhere for download? thanks

Not sure if you are looking for steps on how to produce the print or make the lightbox. If you are looking for directions on how to make the lightbox, I created a very low budget site explaining the major steps here... http://home.mchsi.com/~oldwoodstheater/lightbox.html

Just e-mailed you Bud. Thanks.

Hi everyone. Finally, after weeks and weeks of waiting for somebody to help me finish my marquee signs, someone in here was kind enough to go to the rescue. Bud aka chinadog, my endless thanks to you for your help and expertise in finishing my marquee signs. I know it was very time consuming on your part but without you, my shadow box will still be vacant and empty. Here are the marquee signs that he helped me finish with all the modifications and changes:

Attachment 90879

Attachment 90880

And here's one of the finished marquee sign that I decided to put on the door of my home theater:

The other marquee signs, I'll just decide where to put them next. In the end, I'm happy with the results.

thanks deewan. that really helps for making the box.

what type of paper/ material is best so that the light can pass through? Also, at what resolution are the prints at?

Nice 'Dog!
I did this one yesterday.......
ALl I need to do is backlight it and connect to the top of my stairway, going down in to the HT....

I MAY make another one for movie titles etc below it. It was really pretty fun, I get to play with photoshop 7, and it looks pretty cool too

More fun stuff!

25.5" x 48 - had to go smaller to fit on a heating duct run.



Thanks for the accessible files!

Just wanted to mention that Volley's original Photo Shop file from the theater_sign.zip file can be edited using The Gimp 2.2.17.

Months ago when I first saw this thread I tried an earlier version of The Gimp but it could not load the file. Being a Linux user only, I didn't make my sign since I couldn't edit the file and I'm not artistic enough to create something on my own.

Thanks to everyone in this thread. Now that I have my edited image I'm off to have it printed and to get the supplies to build it now!

Thanks Tom. I'm still running PS 5.5, so its like working with one hand behind my back. What size did you do yours in?

Bud

If this thread is still active, can someone email me the PSD/ CS2 files?

My email

I'd like to make one of these shadow box's too.

Thanks!!

Done!

The original Photo Shop project is still available as a zip download.

Thanks for the reply! DL'n right now!!

I am new to Photoshop. I have hidden the logos that I don't want, but how do I import the ones, I do want?

Does anyone have this file that they could send to me?

"18x24 Ticket Booth"

PM me and we can go from there. Thanks in advance.

Is there anyway someone could help me out here?
I LOVE this marquee. I don't have photo shop. Could someone give me a hand with what I want to make it say?

Craig

What do you need it to say? I have some time today to do one.

I could also use some help as I don't have photoshop. Any help would be appreciated!

Hey guys

Can anybody do me one like post 327 but saying " Marks Home Cinema "
Thank you
