Just a quick notice, you should change to a different tumblr theme, or alter the one you're on now, since there are no page buttons, so we can only ever see 15 of your grids at once in this layout.

Okay. Due to the rather limited nature of the program I have to use, I can't set the character spacing correctly, so I'm forced to use a rather primitive method at the moment, which is basically either normal, or just having a space between each letter. So, Tell me, which one of these do you think is better?

Number 1
Number 2

So yeah, I don't know what to do other than that, on my limited program for my attempts.

number 2 has the closest spacing and its quite close to the original.
That grid is great i'd use it.
And Its kool seeing you make it. its fun!

Ok, worked it a bit out. Since I only have a very old Photoshop, I work with Gimp.
Settings for the text:
Font: Bebas Neue
Size: 46
Space between letters (don't know how it's called, it's under the size, right one): 5,1
You can't edit the text, you have to make a new one, but that's easy. Hope it helps :D

Ahh, So you can use GIMP to do it...Unfortunately, I'm used to the PDN interface right now, but that might be a suitable substitute since it is free as well.

Hey, I need help. I'm using Paint.net and even with a text plugin I can't get the text to look right. So could you just add the text " [PROTOTYPE 2] "? James Heller

Also for this one- add "Half-Life 2" Gordon Freeman

Thanks.

Also Magicka if you can.

I plan on making more, it's just the text I can't do.

The paint.net system works fine with a psd addon to use the template properly, the only problem is that PDN has no proper kerning support, hence the only way to do the text properly for it, is to to put spaces in between each letter, or just use another program to do it.

What's a psd addon?

I just use each part on a new layer.

Comment has been collapsed.

Oh, I installed an addon to properly interpret the photoshop template, so I already had all the image files in the correct layers without much effort needed by me. Also means that I don't get the order wrong or anything like that.

Yeah, I got the order wrong to on the Prototype one. I forgot the vignette thingy... But I fixed it.

My requests (My skills at photoshop are too good to be used, the pure awesomeness of them makes every PC overheat)

  • CoD:BO (preferably 2, so I can have one for single and one for multi. The single could be one with a zombie, since thats all single player is good for)
  • CoD: MW3 (Again, preferably 2)
  • CS:GO
  • The one and only FORTIX!
  • Hacker Evolution: Duality (not too pushed about this one, it's mainly just so my select screen all looks the same)
  • Half Life 2: Episode 1
  • Half Life 2: Episode 2
  • Half Life 2: Deathmatch
  • Half Life 2: Lost Coast (I know this is a lot of half lives, but it only adds up to make 2 full lives in total)
  • Hero Academy
  • Metro 2033
  • Mirror's Edge
  • Mount & Blade: With Fire And Sword
  • The Ship (one for single, one for multi, and one for the tutorial if possible)
  • Shoot Many Robots: Arena Kings Beta
  • Team Fortress 2 Beta

Even if only one of these gets done id be more than happy, id be overjoyed :D

As for all grid images, I don't know if you can do it via tumblr, but for my ones in the imgur album, simply add /zip after the url, and it will download a zip file with every grid image I have made in it. Same goes for Barts.
