Looking at buying a huge picture

[lonewolfxix]

So this is obviously my first request, I'm looking at making a box to store all my Squaresoft/Enix games etc. So I want a design based around Squaresoft/Enix games mainly Final Fantasy, it has to be pretty high resolution, I'm willing to give all my current GFP ( 1,129.48 ) which is roughly $11.29 according to LiNuX's idea of putting the cost of things down on the forum (when he sorts everything out :-P)

So yeah.. lots of stuff based around Final Fantasy and it has to look good obviously :-P

If you want, post your ideas with sketches/basic designs and whichever I think is the best I will say and on completion I'll pay you the promised 1,129.48 (and if it's really great, more GFP will be paid when possible)

Thanks for looking and I look forward to seeing your design ideas.
This box is going to look sweet :D Can't wait till my collection gets even bigger :D

How big you want it? background size?

[lonewolfxix]

Well it has to be pretty big but "background size" can be anywhere between 800x600 and 2560x1600. I think sort of A3/4 size but like I said.. the bigger the better :P if you make a low resolution one first I'll print it off see how it looks and stuff... thanks for replying :)

I'm sorry... don't 100% understand what you are asking for.:confused1:

What i am confused about:
*It has to be based around Squaresoft/Enix games mainly Final Fantasy...
Does that mean:
-It has to be the right size to fit those games.
-It needs to be shaped like something from one of those games.
-It needs to have a coloured design on it based on those games.
-Other?

Also you said:
I'm looking at making a box.

just a box?, or did you want a cabinet or something?


I've done design and tech and worked with CAD programs, so I would be able to help you, I am just unsure of what you want...

[lonewolfxix]

Well I wanted to make a big box for storing the games so I just want a sort of design to put on the top, it'll be sort of jewellery box in design except a lot larger. (probably want it to be like... 2 rows... 1 layer of playstation style cases and 1 row of playstation 2 style cases) (so about 34-35inches long and about 14-15inches wide)

I mainly want the design for the top with stuff from final fantasy games and other games by Square that were actually any good (e.g. not tactics/fables), around the sides I'll probably carve in designs and polish it darker.

[Joshuah]

Background size is A4 :P I understand ;)

[lonewolfxix]

Desktop/background size varies on what size monitor you're talking, for all you know I could have a dell 2407WFP which is a 24inch widescreen with a resolution of 1920x1080 :) A4 pictures are generally 4800x1200 for perfect detail.
But yeah.. it needs to be a lot bigger than 21cm(height) by 30cm (width) it needs to be 38cm(height) and about 89cm long... hmmm for some reason that doesn't seem right... oh that's why.. stupid ruler... i thought i was reading inches but it was cm... so 15cm tall and 35cm wide

[Joshuah]

Well I made something - I think its right, crashed my computer few times but I did it ;-)

[lonewolfxix]

That's pretty cool, though sorry to say i'm more into the older final fantasies and i have no idea who the one on the left is (ps2 broke before i played x-2 even 8-) ) and it doesn't say final fantasy or anything.. any other ideas? ^^ though, for your effort i can send a lil money over paypal if you have that?

[Joshuah]

Me neither it just looked cool :P

[lonewolfxix]

it does look cool just doesn't really suit putting final fantasy stuff in it... since most of them are rather plain.. I want it mainly white but with like... characters and stuff fading in if you know what I mean and possibly "The Square collection" or something on it to show what's in it.

So yeah, it has to be 15cm tall and 35cm wide and that should be a good size, I don't mind any characters from 7 to 12 or some of the art work from the older ones possibly.. I have an idea of what I want but I think I'd have to draw the characters myself which is hard for me to do as i mainly draw from pictures rather than seeing something or thinking

[Joshuah]

Here I done another one -

[lonewolfxix]

Wow, that's pretty cool, I guess i could chip the wood in on the front of the box and sort of dye it darker than the rest of the box.

[Joshuah]

:) Glad you like it did I win the GFP lol XD Only Joking

[lonewolfxix]

I can send you ?2 over paypal if you have one? XD

[FattaT]

This is 15 tall 35 wide:

[lonewolfxix]

...Wow... Best so far.... Exactly what I asked for but not how I envisioned it, just waiting for Jasperking to finish his and then I'll decide.. FattaT, got paypal? PM me your address i'll send you a little bit of cash as a little thank you for that. ;) wow... that is really cool..

[FattaT]

I might do another one a little later (in the next 24 hours) and try and get a fading-in technique happening with the characters and the white.

[lonewolfxix]

Wow, cool, thanks, I sent the payment and it's not much but yeah

[FattaT]

[lonewolfxix]

Wow.. although it's pretty much exactly what I said it just doesn't look right... it's really cool but... urk.. how to say it.. it doesn't really suit my idea...

[Joshuah]

lonewolfxix, can of have GFP instead of money??

[Jasperking]

i finally finished the pic.. took me ages cause im really lazy and had to mask most of the pics :p...but anyway here it is nice and simple..

[lonewolfxix]

Wow, awesome, I'll make my decision and ask other people for their opinion on which one to choose expect a decision mid-week!

[lonewolfxix]

Okay, I've had a look through them and I have to say I like Jasperking's the best, followed by Fattat's first one he made for me.

Good job and thanks to all of you!

[Jasperking]

yay i win XD and all i did was copy and paste... ah only joking i had to mask quite alot :p
if possible could i have some of the payment in cash? we live quite close so should be easy enough :P

[lonewolfxix]

Sure, how much GFP would you like? thanks again to everyone who made the pictures

[Joshuah]

You said I could have ?2 how about the GFP's instead :'(

[lonewolfxix]

so 400GFP? I guess so... how much does Jasperking want in cash and how much GFP? lol 400 with $7 cash? I don't know.. lol

[Jasperking]

please and thank you :) lol. Yeah 400gfp i think is a nice amount to have on GF

[lonewolfxix]

okay then, although the paypal money was just a thing for saying thank you and gfp wasn't meant to be an alternative... I have given you 400gfp. Jasperking, I've also sent your gfp and I may see you tomorrow if you're coming out? :)

[Jasperking]

thanks alot for the gfp lonewolf. Im sure i can use it to good use later on :)

[LiNuX]
