Is it possible to scan or take a digital picture of SIGNGOLD and make it a special fill for layouts.

If so would the result give the gold justice and perhaps sell a job?

One inquiring mind that would like to know.

Thanks in advance

Digital picture would work, but I'd scan it into the computer instead.

Ricky...I "grabbed" a GIF of SignGold off their old website....I use it regularly and "powerclip" it into graphics in Corel for just that purpose. In fact I provided my printer with my logo in Corel format and the business cards turned out VERY nice! If ys want the GIF of the SignGold just e-mail me and I will send it to ya. I don't imagine the SignGold folks would mind since we are using their GIF to sell THEIR product to customers. Personally, the sample pics they currently have on their website are no where as nice as the original ones were. Also. SignGold is a really tough product to take a decent picture of..you have to get the angle just right to get a decent pic.

And Dave thanks for the help with the "powerclip" feature in corel. Add that to the growing list of hints/tips I have picked up here in Letterville.

50.00 a year in taxes is well worth the help I get on this site.

Letterville rocks!!!!
