I play with the actual cards (as above) and then take a picture (as above) and then I stitch it together digitally by importing all the digital files into one big Photoshop file, using the photo as a guide. From there, I can either use it as is or make it into a vector file with Illustrator.FrDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00459281821319914530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290828421410624791.post-24292751451970443562013-02-16T16:14:14.101-06:002013-02-16T16:14:14.101-06:00I have also been trying to stick to the 3x5 idea, ...I have also been trying to stick to the 3x5 idea, so I put 4 entries on each; my photoshop template has little guides to help me get the doors line up. <br /><br />This example is great for demonstrating that it is not the point to make sure they can all fall in lockstep, generated in a different size. Instead, create bits and bobs and stitch them together however they'll fit.<br /><br />That changes how I see the project, and it's pretty neat.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06463222600747737190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290828421410624791.post-30804567913488594002013-02-16T16:08:13.800-06:002013-02-16T16:08:13.800-06:00These really are cool. =)
One thing that I am doi...These really are cool. =)<br /><br />One thing that I am doing is to put a light grid on it, lettered and numbered, and an ID number on the card itself. That way, instead of having to put numbers on, you could put in "F2 B1 Pool is blood 1' deep" or something like that.<br /><br />As you use these, do you plan to scan yours in and arrange and photoshop them there? How do you take it from something on paper to something in a .pdf?Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06463222600747737190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2290828421410624791.post-13728815830687549562013-02-14T13:46:11.482-06:002013-02-14T13:46:11.482-06:00True.

They could as easily be 4x4, or even different polygons.Roger G-Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08594440701279968693noreply@blogger.com
