Are any of you good at text-based design?

While this logically belongs in the Art section, I'm Captain, so I'm spamming my 'Captain Clause' for the sake of swiftness and effectiveness.

I'm going to, in my free time (wait, do I actually have that?), make a new banner for the guild. I am in NO way good at text design, though. I mean, I manage, but it'd look a whole lot better if someone actually good at it did this for me.

So, if someone here is a Graphic Designer/major or has any background in typography (typography is the right term right? I always mix it up with the one about a certain emphasis as a study in art), let me know. I'd like to collaborate with that person to make an animated banner (if its not obvious, I'm the animator by default, since, duh, my major).

Thanks! Hope I wasn't too confusing. My brain is dead, so the above might not have made any sense.

Well unless you were going for topography, I think you got the right term. ;D

I could try again... I'm starting to collate a large amount of text-types... And I'm getting better...

But I would save me as a last resort. D;

@playing with myself - No, not topography. xD I wiki'd it, and typography was the right term.

@Veritas - What I need is a paint-splatter-type font/text saying TOPG in green (or Red, red is cool, but preferably green). If you don't know where that is going, I'll be sad.

I'm learning how to make a Website at a after-school program i got into...I might ask my teacher if he knows how to make a banner since he is a professional at Web Design...

If I had photoshop, I could whip something up. Got the fonts, just not the programs to jazz them up in. Scratch that, got Photoshop xD
If all you need is the text, then let me see what I can do 3nodding

hehe, I'm glad you got a kick out of it, though.

I could do something to that effect for you in Macromedia Flash if you wanted me to.

Then again...I'd have to go get the program again. D:

Don't have it on my home computer. :[

I myself, though I am a complete amateur, can see about finding a similar type font and cooking something up in my version of Photoshop.
