Ooo its hard i tell ya. I am still in the middle of a design and just cant get it right. Not easy.

 

[Gill]

I dont know how to use my comp to do this buddy.

Here you are.

This one is a bitmap, but the original is still vector, so is infinitely changable.

I use a pen and pencil lol easy enough to get in on a pc then.
The hard part is the design and idea.

 

[_mark_]

some I did a while back, the acorn is my touchmark.
I did a spider for someone on here a while back also.

Hiya Gill
Didn't really know what to do for this one as I don't know much about you, but here's a selection of ideas anyway. I've come up with a random selection of ideas with a variety of different font and text options (which can all be changed). If you have any ideas of idea for a theme just let me know.

Hows your hunt for a mark going gill?

 

[Gill]

some good but not sold yet i need one i love before i fork out for a stamp lads.

 

[georann]

Can you give us any more ideas of what sort of thing youre looking for? Any particular theme you would like or icon or emblem or motif?

I like that, plus it would make a good stamp. Some with too much on them hardly make a depression.

 

[Robbi]

Gill, what about something like this ? ( i can't do the computer drawing bit ) it say's your name, represents a fish's Gill and would be a reasonable simple stamp to have made.

 

[Gill]

could i revive this i still dont have one and this has been on the back shelf for a wee while.

 

[georann]

We could do with a better idea of what you're looking for? GG or gill? Any particular image or shape?

This is the thing buddy i,m not sure maybe even a wee mark and initials i thought of a wee campfire amongst other things.

 

[georann]

Something more like this then?

Trying to keep it relatively simple.

 

[Gill]

Yes maybe something on those lines buddy.

 

[georann]

Right I'll put my thinking cap on and try to come up with something. If you have any more solid ideas let us know

 

[daveO]

Just some quick sketches, they'd need a lot of tidying up but you get the idea anyway. I think the fish one has potential, especially given your name...

Brilliant! You have a real skill for this.
