9./JG 52 is "recruiting"
« on: April 02, 2003, 05:15:13 PM »
If you've been at this a while and are looking for a 'lax 109 squad, give me a shout and we'll see how it goes. I'm just looking for a few (maybe 4 or 5) good wingmen who like to fly 109's (G2 in particular :)).

Got bored of trinity today, so I spent my afternoon/evening working on a website for JG 52. It's not done yet, but here's what I've got so far: http://www26.brinkster.com/bovine/splash.html

lol, Thanks man :D. I'm still not happy with everything, so it's nowhere near done.


Still looking for talented 109 pilots...

Yeah, they're boring... I don't particularly like dumping flaps all the time, and I hate being such a huge target. I also don't like needing to have alt all the time... makes for some boring sorties :D

I keep checking your site wetrat to see how you're coming along.  Looks great!

How did you do the block-effect behind the nice lettering, and what font is that?

block effect on the text is very easy, you do this:

(in Photoshop 6+)
1) Copy the text and the area of the background you want the blocks on
2) Create a new image, paste the area you copied
3) Duplicate layer
4) go to filter->pixelate->mosaic... I think I used 0.1 for mosaic
5) Reduce opacity to 50%
6) go to filter->sharpen->sharpen 3 times

And I'm not really sure which font you mean... tell me which image it's on. But if you mean the font I used for the "9./JG 52" and "I am not a dweeb," it's a font called "Monotype Corsiva." I'm fairly certain that font came with this OS.. don't think I downloaded it.

I quite well remember killing bugeaf P38-D9 0-3 over the W sea of ndisles, and thinking this guy is just crapola, after seeing kappa and lazer in 38s and then trying out the plane for myself and understanding it's such an easy plane to kill D9s in..

and it's as butt ugly as a lowrider caddy.
