Fantastic! It'll be great to have all these faces in the game - especially with Minstrel's cool template :cool:

Good luck guys!

I just want to give you update about my work with the QJMHL players pics.

The research for the players faces/actions are going better than I was thinking. But I have not started yet making the pics for EHM. Why? Because my :rant: Photoshop gives me headache. He didn't see font than Mistrel has using. I have put it in the right folder, Word see it... and when I open Photoshop... :dunno: he see not this font.

Does someone can help me with that problem? Until this problem will be solved, I still search for all pics.

Thanks!

I guess you're using Windows? Have you tried this:

Go to C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\ and copy the font file to this folder. Then restart Photoshop.

Yes, I have put font there. And Photoshop didn't see it. But I have just found a strange thing...

When I look property of the font, it says than it will be open with ACDSee... can it be only this the problem?

2- I change program to work pics... do you have any suggestions of good program for windows?

PaintShop Pro is good but it's about €140.

What is the file extension for the font?

I don't think reinstalling windows will solve your problem.

The extension of the font is : TTF

I still continue searching for pics. That way, if I am not able to resolve my problem, I will able to sent to someone else all pics he need to help me in the work.

Yeah TTF should work fine :-k

Try getting a demo copy of PaintShop Pro :dunno:

But sure you can get help. I'm happy to help and I bet I know one or two others who could too.

I am also thinking about doing some Pictures. I tried it in Photoshop but the file won't work with it. So I might try find a copy of Paintshop Pro then have a go. If I get it today and get it working I will let you know.

Thanks for all you support. But I think I have resolve my problem... (don't ask me how... I don't know). I have sent a pic to Mistrel to have his comment about my work. After I received his OK, I will start to make them all.

I take a little more time to ask you a question :

When I will sent QJMHL files on the site, how do you want they are sending? I guive you 4 choices :

1- All together (1 file)
2- Team by Team (18 files)
3- Division by division (2 files)
4- Alphabetical (3 files)

Do them either alpahbetical or division by division. That way there aren't too many files to download but you can also split up your work. It also means those with slower connections can download it in chunks.
