    Lorings plaque thread

    Rather than get lost in the other one, I'm obviously starting another.

    I did several formats for plaques in the more traditional sense (one of which I'll upload) but then remembered I had a wood spirit pattern possibly more unique considering what this forum is about. The first wood spirit is basic outline text. I slanted the 2nd image to better show how the raised lettering will carve.

    I also have several different versions ofmore traditional plaque patterns so we can go pretty much whichever way we want.

    I'm open to input.

    I like the design and lay out of the first plaque, but I would use the engraved style letters (like the second), instead of raised letters

    Thanks again for your help!

      I agree Mike - just wanted to throw some examples out there. I'll have a few more to choose from when I get a little more free time.

        I also like the first one. It mentions his contributions. You could have a lot of posts without really making much of a contribution (like me )

            So did I. Then I read it correctly and briefly wondered why we were talking about his teeth.

                I like what you have. The last one looks great. Personally, I am not as impressed with his post count as much as with the photo's of his fishing exploits. Quite the angler.

                If ever there was a time to produce a talking fish on a plaque, this would be it for me.

                  I could probably find one or figure out how to animate this one.

                        Once you have the first, it only takes a few seconds for the next.
