1. When my BFSC Gold membership expires do I lose my custom title option?
2. If I buy another BFSC membership after it expires do i get a second name change or is it just the one.

Does anyone know if anyone here's made a 2014 Excel Ladder Predictor?

I've made one*, I was waiting until the Giants finalised their player numbersbefore uploading it.
One sheet has the Ladder Predictor, the other has the team lists with players numbers.

*When I say I've 'made one' what I mean is I pasted the new Fixture over the old one and re-formatted it so it looks right. (Byes are in different weeks than what they were in 2013.)

You need a score for each game, then press the Arrow in the top corner to sort the ladder.
Logos should update with the team names. Please tell me if they don't.

Column F for the Home score, G for the Away score.
The rest should get worked out from there.

As I have been recently creating Scanlens footy cards, I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of the logos for any Leagues without a white background. I have recently been looking for the old FDFL, WRFL, VFL and NFL (Northern Football League). If anyone else has pictures of other leagues, feel free to post them here.

Tried it via this tutorial and it worked!

Anyone have any ideas of what font the BBL uses for shirt numbers?

Other than St. Kilda wearing a white scarf in the early parts of the VFL/AFL, when was the first time a team would alter either thier shorts or jumper to distinguish them between the other team?

South Melbourne wore a red sash to distinguish between their blue and white hoops and Geelngs blue and white hoops I believe

Do you mean alter their jumpers permanently? Or one off?
Almost everyone had Blue or Blue & White jumpers initially. Some clubs added elements to them to distinguish them. Essendon added a Red sash to the Blue jumper, Richmond and Yellow and Black sash.
South added the Red sash to the hooped jumpers. Footscray added Red hoops to their jumpers too.
I would nominate Essendon as being the answer to your question. 1875, added a Red sash to their Navy jumpers.

As far as one-off changes, Geelong wore Red socks and sometimes plain Blue jumpers between 1913 & 1921 when playing Collingwood. But their colours for all other games were variations on the hoops they wear today.

Thanks Mero.

I was sort of interested in clash jumpers, or use of alternate shorts.

Then Geelong 1913 clash socks, Geelong 1914 clash jumper is your answer.

Hey guys, thought I'd ask this here.

Im going to be picking up one of these.
http://www.canterburynz.com.au/prod...s-2013-on-field-home-jersey-mens/colour-7645/

I'm not exactly sure what the fit is like though. In normal t-shirts I'd be a 2XL/3XL. In the ISC retail Guernseys I fit well in a 4XL. I havent got a massive stomach but I'm not exactly the fittest lad on the block, and I also have rather wide shoulders/chest. Im also about 6'2" / 6'3"

Any tips on what size I should be looking at? Cheers.

Because every body shape is different, and therefore might fit into a different size guernsey, I'd recommend heading to your local sports store like Rebel and trying on the ones they have for sale there. It'll give you the best indication of what to get

That's the thing, the NRL doesn't have a great following in sports stores in SA. I've never actually seen a NRL jersey here let alone a bulldogs one

Haha. Come to NSW. Half the store is NRL...

It's not such a bad issue.

What is a Player Jersey Sponsorship?

 

[Greater Gattsby]

Can anyone please fill me in with some details about this jumper?

What I know:

• It's from 2012
• We are aligned with North Ballarat (this is most likely linked)
• We played a game or two in the preseason in Ballarat last year
• This is the first time I have ever seen this
• I want one

Preseason

I got it from the factory, as far as I know it's a one-off made as a sample for a potential Eureka game jumper

EDIT: I just found out

I'm trying to update my Illustrator CS3 to CS6, and it's saying the update failed because the patch isn't applicable for me.

What does that mean? Also, I've seen the Creative Cloud thing, is that what I have to get now?

Get CS5. Best to date imo. And if you have a slight older pc CS6 will lag.

Why would CS5 be better than CS6?
