Mark, It looks great. I have some questions on the process of designing the art.
What program do you use? Do you design in vector and then go to raster for the effects?
I've been doing most of designing in SignLab but after hanging out on the forum for a while I know I need to step it up to the next level. I have an Edge for output so that's not a problem.
Thanks for any advice you may have.

I originally built the text, filmstrp, and reel in corel draw. Then exported just the "Gallagher" as an eps. "Open" it in photoshop (set the resolution but dont change the size). Bump up the canvas size and import the other elements individually. Outline, inline, color and ad effects in photoshop ... wish I knew how to do this type stuff in a vector program only ... photoshops layers and tools make it so much easier and more fun ... for me.
I'm not big on twinkles but they just seemed fit here. New plan is, it is to be a wall mural in the theater room ... probably in July, because he is in Conn. and Ozzfest will be in Hartford ... make a nice family weekend ... for free +.
I paint (crank tunes, drink beer, soak in hot tub, lounge in pool) while everyone else goes to six flags ... then Ozzfest... maybe a Yankee game. Same friend I did this mural for in his billiard room... 'cept this time I go in with a plan.
