Oh they normally need a 3mm bleed area around the artwork so its best to have a bit extra all the way round the artwork.
Hey guys. I’d like to customize my stick, but I have no photoshop skills.
I’d like to commemorate the release of Daft Punk’s new album RAM. I was inspired to customize my stick after viewing the aesthetic of their SNL teaser. Here’s the video if you’re curious (or want an idea): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMJwcOiBoZE
I want this stick to ooze with class. Here are some images I’m interested in:
The robots: http://www.techedon.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Daft_Punk_Random_Access_Memory_Suits.jpg
The RAM cover: http://imgix.8tracks.com/i/000/297/132/c/HelmetsRAM-438.jpg?fm=jpg&q=65&w=1024&h=1024&fit=max
Template: http://img862.imageshack.us/img862/9612/q4byd3vbuttonlabels.jpg
I can do without the second image, but if someone with artistic abilities sees an application for it, that would be great.
I do not want any Daft Punk logos or the album name on the stick. I want it for speak for itself.
The only colors I’m interested in are black, muted gold, and muted silver/gray. I’d like the background to be primarily black. I was thinking about maybe some 70s stripes running along the buttons, but I don’t know if that would fit with the sequin aesthetic.
I’m also looking to use a clear balltop and probably a black washer and dust cover. What I want to do with the buttons kind of depends on what the art looks like, I guess.
If there’s any writing at all, I’d like “Human” to be placed somewhere, possibly along the buttons, and I’d use clear ones if that was the case. Probably in the Thriller-esque cursive font. I don’t want “Human” to look like it’s my gamertag, though. Just part of the design.
Basically, I want this thing to scream 70s disco funk (with robots). I don’t want to sound picky. I just figured that you’d appreciate details in regards to what I’m looking for.
Just purchased a Fightstick Pro and wanted to create my own variation of the Evo stick art. I will be using all white OBSF30s and a clear LS-58 (6-button layout). Just sent this to Art at Tek-Innovations.
looking for some blackest night green lantern for a madcatz se fight stick
Would anyone be able to make some nightwing art for the SFxT fightstick pro (madcatz) with this art http://media.dcentertainment.com/sites/default/files/files/2011/06/ntw_cv1.jpg(cut the nightwing onto a background) the injustice logo and the madcatz logo somewhere on it EDIT: perhaps with the nightwing logo my profile picture has somewhere on it
Ok, I’ve been running in some troubles every time I go to print my arts, more in specific with the ones that have too much black on them.
They look ok to me when I’m working on PS and is obvious, but whenever I print them, I got some nasty darker images.
How much do I need to bright the images before save them?
Also, is there any big difference if I decided to make my psds in RGB instead of CMYK?
Some friend told me that CMYK has a lot more colors variations since there are more toners installed in the printer… so, if this is true (CMYK > RGB) should I change my settings to match this or should I stick with RGB? Does anyone know if the printers from Fedex Office Services are the ones that my friend was talking about?
Sorry if this has been asked before, I hope to get some advise here.
Always work in CMYK. Unless you’re only planning on using the files on websites, RGB is useless. CMYK uses natural colors that you see with your eyes. Thus printers were built on using CMYK for ink. The colors blend much better and photos look more realistic. You can convert from RGB to CMYK. It will ask if you want to merge everything. Just click convert and do not merge. You will notice that the colors may alter either a small bit or a drastic change.
It’s best to just work in CMYK the whole time because of that reason.
Very nice, d3v. Thank you for sharing!
Just kind of, randomly considering different approaches to putting ingrid on my stick.
Yay, nay?
yesterday I made these

today I visited printingshop, to have it printed in vinyl and laminated in matte textured
after I tried on the stick, it turned out the bottom need to be longer by 1mm and the right need to be shorter by 1mm 
but anyway I casually cut the holes and called it a day… it needs to be fixed while waiting for my parts to arrive

I think my favorite is the custom HUD one I made =D
I am going to try and turn my new MLG stick into this:
For a custom Purple heart case with VSHG layout, can’t decide. Probably just get both printed out and choose.
Top 3 sanwa silent violets bottom dark reds jlf with sanwa blue translucent dustwasher, balltop etc.

The bottom one, they’re both awesome, but I like how the LI input is right next to the logo.

A custom FLCL TE mod we did.
probably a dumb question but how do you extend the artwork past the lines of the template so it “bleeds out”?
I’m using the mayflash template.
here is a ready print A3 size, both templates are fixed it should fit better now
