Yeah, it seems we are dealing with a genius here. Watch out, he might drop some mad insider knowledge on TD

Go for it. The real credit should go to blzr for finding the source pic. That source pic is freaking hilarious.

Dodger, you got the skills and time to make it a proper sig pic for me? My last one got whacked for being too large.

if you look at it terms of total record, there are similarities. If you look at in terms of trends, not so much. Coker's teams only got worse while he was thereHis losses, in chronological order, are as follows: 0, 1, 2, 3, 3, 6


OK so looking at trends would you say Chizik is trending similar to Coker?

The point I was making is his career most resembles Miles more then it does Chizik's at this point correct?

For the op to say Chizik is like Coker after 2 years vs. 6 is a pretty lame comparison amirite?

What's wrong with the way you have it now? Looks good to me.

eta: Is the file size too large?

Sure. I just tinker around with Photoshop. I'm no expert. Thanks.

It is still 41,000 bytes. Limit is 30k. Guess this one will get whacked as well.

Add a stroke to the font by right clicking the thumbnail and selecting blending options. Then you will see drop shawdow, inner and outer glow, bevel and emboss, pattern overlay color overlay and the last one should be Stroke. Just select it and pick your color (probably best with white or black there) and then the size of the stroke.

So go in this order: Right click thumbnail > Blending options > Stroke.

IDK what version you have, but CS5 extended has a symbol at the bottom of the the work screen "fx" that is a shortcut to the blending options menu.

But stroke really helps the font stand out and separates it from the rest of the image.

Here is a quick example.




The other blending options are amazing as well. Outer glow is how I make make lightning and my images look neon.

Color overlay allows you to change the font color to your choosing and you can change the opacity to make it look like another color is shining through.

Bevell and emboss gives it a raised 3D look.

I still don't know how to use them all as well as others, but it really adds other dynamics to the image.
