Re: Software For Creating Art For Screen Printing

I'm very old school and I really do not need the latest version of Adobe Illustrator. I have older versions like CS3 and CS5 on DVD. They have more functions than I'll ever use. So, if you can buy and older version on disc that has the code, it might be all you need. Photoshop on the other hand loo...

Re: Software For Creating Art For Screen Printing

That looks like a simple three colour set up.
clip it and put it into photoshop and check the rbg.

You may have to print it off, draw the lines and scan back in for a perfect drawing.


You sure that isn't a copyrighted picture though?

Anyone done it please

Re: Vector downloading/websites

THe free ones are ok but some come with a logo on them. I would try a royalty free site with a pameny option but also remember that everyone else can access the same artwork. You need to build up a clip art library as CAtsit hinted at, try looking around odd places like deviant art for ideas and the...
