The VW restoration spot.

General: Website Lettering Design

I am trying to come up with a kewl theme for a Vintage VW Site that I'm building. I am artistic, but I have never been able to mix my artistic talent with technology. I suck at Photoshop and GIMP. I might resort to the old fastion illustration way and then scan it in. Let me think about that one. I am willing to pay someone $50 dollars to create me a slammed Beetle that could hang off the left side of these letterings. What type of service do you think most VW sites are lacking? Please do comment.

whats missing, visitors. Getting visitors to your site will be your biggest job!

Honestly, this blog is just away for me to keep myself motivated to finish my car. At the same time, I get to practice writing english. VolksRide will have no problem getting vistors. It is not the content of this site. It is under development.

Hey,

That is quite nice but it is not clean enough. But how did you crank that out so fast?

Photoshop.
Once you get used to the basics the rest rocks.

I liked it when I was doing it but by the time I looked back on it I decided the little VW thing on the end reminded me of scooby doo bats and made the whole font look a bit comedy horror rather than beachbuggy...

I'll have another go when I get a spare minute.
