Would love to know how to edit an existing logo.

Either you find them via PDF open the in llustrator and edit them or find them via vector sites
Or on PS you just find the psd for it. EG- Miami Heat psd logo.

Didn't think it was that simple.

You don't need to download a psd file of a logo, just get a HQ picture off the web.

I'm more concerned about the text. Like the same font and if it curves to fit in a design etc. How would I do that?

In PS when youre typing something on the design. In the top toolbar there is a "T" with an arc under it, once you have finished typing but the cursor is still flashing click this and Warp Text window will pop up. From there pick your option and move the sliders to shape it.

Is it possible to use the same sort of font or edit the existing text on the logo?

Umm there might be, but I dont know it. short of cutting and moving individual letters around. If you Google something like "What is the Port Adelaide logo font" for example it might come up with a font file that you can download for free and install. Failing this post the logo on here in the Q&A thread and someone might be able to point you in the right direction. Then one you have the font installed you can type what you want and shape it how ever you want.

This.

Or another way is to go to a website called 'What the Font'.
Take a screenshot of just the text on the POWER (if you were using power), upload it from your computer and follow the instructions. You can also copy the link of the logo and paste it into the bar it gives you.

Most of the time the fonts aren't free, so once you get the font, search up '(name of font) free' and you'll get it somewhere in the results.
The only problem: it doesn't work with curved text.

EDIT: Sorry for derailing your thread pie_machine

With vector image software like Illustrator or the open-source equivalent Inkscape (which is what I use), you can simply draw any curve you want and then put text on that path so the letters follow the curve. And here's a useful reference for finding fonts: http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/logo-fonts.872100/

Has anyone bought an ISC training jumper lately? The Freo store says they're "very tight and fitted." I know retails fit a lot thinner these days, but does anyone have a comparison from the mid/late 2000s jumpers? An old Reebok one is a size M and fits perfectly; would a medium still be okay for a skinny prick?

Assuming they are cut the same as a matchday guernsey, the ISC ones were probably a size and a half smaller than the old reebok ones in my experience.

I used to have some room in my reebok medium. My ISC large is a lot tighter fitting, but also much better quality.

I'd say go at least a size up.

In terms of tightness, ISC L is about halfway between Reebok S and M, although ISC L is a little longer. An ISC L would work for a (short, by all reports) skinny prick who wants to wear it by itself but if you want to wear it over a hoodie or are expecting weight gain, you'll have to go XL.

Oh I'm not that short! But that's ludicrous about the differential, glad I asked. Cheers. Not sure about this weight gain comment either!

If at all possible i'd even try one on before I bought it.

I was lucky in that I went down to the club to buy my ISC guernsey. If i'd ordered it online it would have been way too small.

Does anyone know what font the final scores are in this?

 

[Gibbsy]

What a ludicrously obscure request

 

[Jack Stevens]

Does anyone know what font the final scores are in this?

60 to 57. Just Googled it, and found that the game went to overtime, hence the extra "quarters" (or should that be sixths)

"Locked at 56 points apiece when the final siren sounded, two brief 'quarters' were played to break the deadlock."

He asked about the font, not the final score.

The font of 60/57, btw, is the ridiculously obscure Supernormale Eight Large Bold Condensed.

 

[Gibbsy]

I just have no idea why anyone would want to know that!
