Cap and uniform request

Tiger Fan · 06-21-2010, 08:16 PM

Fired up my old fictional league the Breda Baseball Association and am really starting to get into it. I have been using logos that were made for me a few years ago but would love to get some ballcaps and jerseys to go with them. It is 1951 in my league so 1950s/60s style would be perfect.

If anyone has some time to create them for me it would be greatly appreciated.

Here are the first 5 teams:
Aberswyth Aces
Abbotsford Anchors
Ellborough A's
Perth Blue Sox
Cahill Cardinals

Next 5 teams in the 16 team association are:
Chester Clippers
Aberdeen Giants
New London Lions
Portsmouth Mariners
Port Windsor Pirates

Next 5
Port Windsor Robins (32 years in and still waiting for a Robins-Pirates World Series)
St Paul Sailors
Essex Seals
Oxford Sharks
London Stars

Finally the Wellington Volcanoes.

By the way, if anyone could also tell me an easy way to make the white border around the logos transparent without making the white in the middle of the circle logos transparent as well I would appreciate it.

thanks in advance for any help

If nobody jumps on this, I will start working on these tomorrow evening...

davwms · 06-22-2010, 10:25 PM

What fonts did you use for the logos? It would help if I could get them and use them in the uniforms as well...

As for making the logo transparent, it depends on what program you are using...

If you are using GIMP, here is a link to a recent post by DCHelper25

thanks for looking at these. I am not sure what fonts were used as the logos were done a few years back by Cooleyvol and perhaps one or two others.

As for the graphics program I have it is an old paintshop pro (version 7 it says).

TigerFan, using PSP you can delete the white background using the Magic Wand tool. Click in the white area. You may have to adjust the tolerance(start near 15) and turn the anti-aliasing on. You should then have an area selected. Press the Delete key. Repeat if necessary. De-select the selection and save the file. Verify you have clean edges without the jaggies. Temporarily add an layer below the logo and fill in with a dark color. This will let you see if the edges are clean.

Nice work! Glad to see the Blue Sox are blue! I could have sworn they were brown earlier.
