That’s why you “accidentally” find it online. XD.
JK, support Adobe and buy it if you can, they need the money to use their magical powers to create what is Photoshop.

does the template for MadCatz T.E. FightStick work for both R1 and R2?
Yes.
Been trying to create a good custom hakan stick art. Not much art of hakan yet though so it’s been pretty hard. I was able to come up with this though…

I’ll take any advice or criticism, not really all that experienced with photoshop. I know that you can see edge on the left image pretty heavily, but I thought it fit pretty well with the messy paint theme.
Find a way to isolate Hakan’s daughter’s (they are so pretty) better.
Also, slather the stick with oil before you play.
Here is a concept for my 2nd SE Mod… worked hard on it and now hate it. If anyone wants the PSD let me know, a little more cropping is needed on the character art, to remove the highlights.

Here is what is on my stick now…

If anyone wants this one let me know, I’ll throw it up on rapidshare.
Most important step, do not forget it.
Might also want to resize the image of Hakan molesting-uhh, oil wrestling Chun Li, get their heads out of the button area.
Any recommendations for finding Hi-res art? I found some images I would love to use (BlazBlue/Iron Tager related) but they aren’t anywhere near large enough to work with a TE stick.
Would it be best to try and commission a Photoshopper or something?
Google/Bing image searches, Danbooru, Safebooru and Gelbooru are your friends.
Add moe.imouto to the list since they specialize in hi-res images, only issue might be that images are not tagged as well as they are in danbooru/gelbooru. I would use Gelbooru over Danbooru since you can use more than 2 tags.
quick question about printing.
I read in this thread all about printing that a lot of factors can come into printing lol and all it did was pretty much confuse me x.x
anyone with first hand experience know what i should ask for? like word for word what i should ask for at kinkos?
-edit whoops double post lol
How accurate are the button placements on Art’s template? I am kinda counting on the buttons to hide some blemishes in the art for this (check the bottom left button). It’s a work in progress. Still need to defringe the foreground image, replace the word bubble with something I like, blur out the imperfections and maybe add a blood splatter pattern to the background so it’s not just white. Comments/criticisms are welcome.
Oh, and also is it possible to even out the colors of the foreground and background image? The foreground image kinda sticks out. I’m a Gimp noob so I dunno how to do that.
Seems a bit advanced for me, can I get someone to create, print and maybe even plexi a MadCatz TE-S artwork. Dark Knight Joker with the trademark card with the “Why So Serious?”. I have seen wallpapers online.
Since it is a TE-S I would like “Rek1essWun” printed between the second and third screws on the top, italicized in a bad ass font.
Don’t wanna seem like I am demanding, so please shoot me an estimate. Let’s not go overboard either.
PM me plz with your estimate. Artwork, cutout and labor.
You can commission d3v for the art.
People who make art DO NOT also print and cut and all that.
Then buy the Print and Cut Service from arthong, and Acrylic Panel too.

Well I technically could cut and print the art, but paying for SHIPPING ACROSS THE PACIFIC for a piece of paper sounds ridiculous.
Datel Arcade Pro Mod
I’ve done a quick mockup of how I want my stick to look. Its a bit rough round the edges, but my photoshop skills are pretty non-existant. Does anyone have any constructive criticism?
Also, I’m using the mayflash template thats been doing the rounds. But I’ve heard its not to the right proportions, I’ve scanned in my Datel Pro Sticker, but I’m stuck to as what to do with it next.
Thanks, Rob
Measure the actual Datel sticker and compare the measurements to the template, then adjust as necessary. As for the design itself, you’ll need to move Ryu a bit so that his face isn’t partially covered up by the buttons.
Problem is, this is the artwork I’ve elected to use
I don’t know how I can move that easily, as the background won’t carry on over to the right hand side of the stick
