need some help

Post by DragginLady » Sat Jul 05, 2008 12:11 pm

I am ordering some shot glasses to gift at the Burn this year and have an image in mind, but do not know how to generate it on the computer to send to the company...

What I would like is a 600 dpi image of the man from waist up with one arm held high with a torch like the statue of liberty's and also with a crown on the head like she wears...
any one out there able to help me with this I would be very appreciative and also would be willing to barter in return. ty ty

If they're a good company you should be able to scan in a rough sketch and ask them to clean it up a bit. Otherwise, you can create your image in Photoshop or any like program and send it from there. Good luck!

I can bake a great apple pie; I can successfully help a woman deliver a baby without use of medications; my garden is producing good stuff...
I can sew up some finery....
but get a 600 dpi image of what I have in my brain....
I am damn near hopeless...... that is why I posted this plea!!

(I mean, really.... do you even see an avatar above my name here????)
