I am no artist so

[evilstepdad]

Hello, well as the title said I am no artist and there has never been a more true statement made.

If you want to chime in what I would like to know is where do you get some of the vectors and other things that you use in making some of your stuff? I have bought some but maybe I am not finding places that are out there with different offerings. Actually any kind of art or symbol or whatever that might come in handy so a heads up on any places to get some of this would be much appreciated.

I do realize that a lot of you just do your own stuff but I don't have the talent but I think down the road I can make some pretty good stuff using something to start with and making it my own.

Thank You

Do a google searsh for Free Vector Images. There are a lot of sites that offer these for free- you have to register on some sites. But they're not hard to find.

You can also try Free vector clipart......

Thanks for getting back to me I have searched and found quite a few sites I was hoping that you all had some private stash of some stuff lol. If you check back in was wondering if you have ever used the Pattern Maker plug in? I want to make a background and have The Zoo thing I have been working on show up all over it...tiled I guess...and will then put our happy hour info over that. If not that then how would you suggest doing that? I will search more tomorrow when I am more awake, laid off work right now but on call and could be called at 6a.m. so burning that candle a little late but really like using this program. I learned a lot yesterday and thank you and the others for the help.

Do what you can do ... then post it here for comments.....

Well here is my first effort learning a lot and you all are helping. Please let me know my mistakes.

Well besides not sending us free tickets I see no mistakes LOL

LOl iDad You are welcome any time. Will do one for these days and we have happy hour all day on Sundays and Mondays lol. We are going to do music videos now and I will not play them the whole night so when they are not playing I will be doing a slide show with adds in them on upcoming events and things we have going on daily at the zoo so this is my reason for starting to get into this. I really am liking it but frustrating as it seems like the simple things get me bogged down so much.

I am putting one more on here for some feedback as this is a photo I had my daughter take so I could make an add for the $3 Coronas and mirror pond. Please let me know what you think.

What part of the site do you put stuff on to get some feed back on what others think could be done better?

Its a bit dark but it looks fine, you are doing good so keep it up. Now where is that Corona located? I might be interested in that!

You're doing an excellent job at your first attempt.... Just remember not to flatten your psd work.... save a jpg copy for use. You can use elements from the layered file on other new work you may have coming...
