    Tiny pic - looked like Brushscript - still a font tho. And still easy.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    Close enough, we'd need a better pic of the bike to tell the difference from where I'm sitting

    Brushscript is a generic type font and not so good for signwriting. Not many of the windows fonts are very useful to reproduce in vinyl infact. This one is from a speedway sign font pack.

    Had to squint to see what all the fuss was about. Nice one Simon. Now Cowboyz will be able to recognise his bike from the side

    Reckon... you guys are easily impressed Unless it has a reflective edge to the letters or something else unobvious? That'd be cool... do it in reflective black so it looks all black in the day

    ??? If it's a TTF there should be no problem. Overlaps on cursive fonts may not line up right....that's where the cleverer signies stand out after they weld and clean up.

    No, its not the overlap, the weld function sorts that fine. Its the flaws in the font when its blown up large. The characters aren't well formed, smoothed off or line up too well and require a little tweaking to sort out. Sometimes they are thin where they should be fat, sometimes straight where a curve should have been. I becomes obvious when its blown up to a larger scale as in signage on a car, truck or building.
    It catches the eye and distracts from your images overall effect. So I ditch them in favour of the Sign font packs instead.

    Perhaps you use an inferior cutting program?

    I thought he was placing it on a screen, now I've seen where hes put it and what the rest of the few logos the Kwaka has look like, I'm making a him a better one with a couple of layers in it.

    I can send you a copy of the AS font pack if you want to try them. They are pretty damn good.
