SALMON TROLLER - Jim Chambers - "Twilight"

[Salmon Troller]

Hi Mike - Got through registration without a hitch, so there is hope for me yet. I wondered thru the exchange with Gene, do I get to beat you up too? Seriously, Gene may have had the right idea - skip the port & settle on the name.

Thanks,

Jim

I checked the transom and made a template. Wall to Wall, we have 15" x 44" in a rectangle. Will allowance for variance, a Name 13" High x 42" Long would work. What is next?

How's this for a start...

We'll need more on color, size and font... just lemme know (don't be shy... it's way easy)

The good news is that I'm easy to please and this looks great. The less certain news is that the Admiral may or may not be that decisive. Can you give it one alternative - change the font to a Ross or Cooper Black, text in Black with an emerald green shadow? This ought to be different enough for her to give me an answer of this one or that one.
Thanks!

Here ya go:

Cooper Black, Emerald Green DS

Don't be shy about changes... they're super easy and pretty quick.

It worked, maybe too well. I did get feedback from the Admiral, who likes both, but only with a different font (actually 3 fonts) and a different color shade. Her input was to check & see if you would happen to have "Tempus Sans ITC" and a gray shadow. If not that font, then either Kristen ITC, or Viner Hand ITC are close enough. She really likes the idea of a legible italics look if that means anything to you.

Go into your "C:\WINDOWS\FONTS" directory and send me the fonts as an attachment in an email. They'll have a ".ttf" extension. I can cut TrueType fonts as easy as anything else.

I'll wait on the colors until I get those from ya.

Here is the Tempus font:

She likes the Tempus version, so let's do it. Let me know how you like to do this, I would be happy to send you shoot you a check.

As long as we are working on this project, can I impose for another small project? I need some small signs - say 3" x 7" that say NO STEP. Simple white block letters on a red background. I will need 4 of them. (to keep people from standing on my heat exchangers & some plumbing).

Thanks & well done!

Sounds great. I'll shoot ya an email.

Jim;

There's a tube headed your way in the morning. Let me know if you have any questions.

Mike -

Great work. Everything went as expected and I could not be more pleased. I uploaded a photo & will try to attach it here, but I am not sure that this will work for me. If not, check it out on the album

Thanks,

Jim

Actually, that font came out a lot better thanm I envisioned. Looks great Jim. Glad to help.
