GIMP's latest updates are fantastic! I use both photoshop and GIMP interchangeably :)

Take a look at pixelmator and say that again. I now use Pixelmator 70% of the time and photoshop 30.

I'll have to check that one out when I have the time. Care to share why it's better?

I recommend you also GIMP, straydog.
I used that program so far for all the SOTW I participate in.
It looks maby a bit difficult at the start, but you get used to it. :)

I was bored and made these today. Would you guys be interested in using them?



Have any suggestions for improving? Want the PSD?

I'm not the greatest with picking fonts, maybe one of you guys have a better idea.

I really liked the mecha "medal" ^^ because it was really mecha-ish (like in my spoiler ).. this is stylish for any SOTW but if it was for example heart or star shaped it would have been more Magical Girl-ish.. If you know what I mean.. but I guess that's a bit to much to ask
Fonts are readable and stylish so no problems with that in my opinion..

I agree. Try to make them fit with the week's theme. That would be awsome 83

You guys are rough

But.....



I think that's a little more magical.

Lol, BTW that mecha one took me all of 5 mins to make :) The hardest part was finding a gundam head to use.

I was just aiming to make a template for the SOTW staff to make their own or use a generic one, I wasn't really thinking about making individual ones for each SOTW. If the staffer's are happy with the base, I'll clean up my PSD, name everything properly and upload it.
