Searching For A Pattern: Supperman "S" Logo
Hi folks
I'm trying to find a pattern for the "S" that Superman wears on his chest. I've been working on a pattern based on images found online but so far I'm just not all that happy with the results. Anyone out there have such a thing? Thanks! ~Dave |

Here's what I've come up with. ~Dave On Mon, 11 Aug 2008 18:55:54 +0200, "Elske" wrote: schreef in bericht .. . | Hi folks | | I'm trying to find a pattern for the "S" that Superman wears on his | chest.

Thanks for your help - pretty rare in this group.
I've worked-over this pattern for hours to get it from the original image into something I could print out. I used Rapid Resizer (no, I'm NOT trying to sell anyone on this app) to enlarge the logo to about 18" x 14". When I printed it on my DesignJet 700, all the angles got rounded-off. Does anyone else here use Rapid Resizer and have similar problems? I was about to print the same image in a pro sign app when my printer ran out of paper It uses 36" roll paper which usually takes a couple of days to get - nobody near me stocks it. Sorry if I hurt anyone's little feelings for posting an image of (gasp!) a stained glass pattern. There's so much BS to wade through here I guess I must have missed the FAQ. Elske, thanks again for your help. I would post my web site where I have my glass displayed but I'm sure someone would interpret it as spam.

Dave:
I doubt you hurt anybody's feelings by posting a stained glass pattern. Yes, there's enough BS in this group to hide the FAQ. The concern comes from the fact that this is an international group, where Microsoft and high speed internet may not be available. For some folks, a bmp or jpg attachment might be a long download that they can never see. Best policy in these groups it to post your picture to your personal web page, then paste links to them in the newsgroup. wrote in message ... Thanks for your help - pretty rare in this group.

Hey Steve!
Thanks for your very polite response - another rare item in this group. Just a few quick comments from someone who's been in & around Usenet (News Groups) for the better part of 15 years. a) Not sure if you have stats to back up the statement that "MOST" news servers srtip binaries and that "very few" saw the image. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt since I don't really care. One person saw it and offered a kind response. Good enough for me. I suppose the free servers that come with a starter internet connection probably do strip out the binaries these days. That didn't used to be the case but storeage costs money and investing in a real news server would just eat away at the bottom line. I pay a whopping $70 (US) per year for NewsGuy*, a "premium" news service. They host every group, great or small, and do not block, censor, or in any way interfere with posted content. Try it - you might like it b) Sorry - I havn't read the charter. I'm sure it's full of all sorts of wonderful ideals including language about not being mean, obnoxious, or a general pain in the butt. c) Wow, man - general "rules" for something international in scope. What a concept. I suppose next we should try to close down/censor those web pages with all the nekkid girlie pics on 'em... d) Agent, NewsPro, NewsLeacher, etc, all of which have great free versions, fully support the viewing of binary files whether they be stained glass patterns or mp3 music files. I can highly recommend any of them over Outlook Express or any other news reader that cannot directly display binaries. Come to think of it, I can't think of any app other than Outlook Express that can attach to a news server and NOT display binaries. What the heck are you using?! As for this "group", my god! I started lurking here almost 2 years ago when I 1st started working with stained glass. My 1st impression was what a bunch of whiney 3rd-graders! Nothing but alledged professionals (in that they claim to get paid for their work) ripping each other back and forth! Complaining about shrinking profit margins and how eBay is ruining everything! No pointers to instructional web sites, no offers to share techniques. And woe be unto he who dare post a URL that might have some sort of commercial connection! Again, Steve, thanks for your polite response. I'm not trying to bust your balls here but some of your statements I just couldn't let stand And what's so wrong with changing things a little bit around here? How old is that charter? Has it ever been updated? Technology changes at the speed of light - let's get with the times! Maybe we should start posting some pattern files and maybe a finished project or 2. Not everyone has or wants a web site. Here's the address for mine: www.belami2.com I use HostMonster.com*, an excellent service. I don't offer anything directly for sale, unless maybe you'd like a gently used, 26' Rinker with trailer for about $12k. OK, enough babbling for 1 evening. Those pieces I cut last night aren't going to foil themselves! ~Dave I have no cute signature. *NOT a commercial endorsement! Although if you do happen to sign up, tell 'em I sent you - I think I get a t-shirt or something.

Mine certainly does, so I saw no image. Very few people who read rcg saw it. b) It's against the charter. c) It's against Usenet rules in general. d) It's not viewable in most newsreaders anyway. There's so much BS to wade through here I guess I must have missed the FAQ. The Charter is posted twice a month. The group has such low traffic lately, there's no way it could have been missed except intentionally. I would post my web site where I have my glass displayed but I'm sure someone would interpret it as spam. Interesting. You blatantly violate the most basic of all usenet rules and then sarcastically apologize, then refrain from posting the exact thing that this group is for. Check that "interesting" and replace with "amazing." |

It used to be a busy, helpful, all around great place. So, Steve??? Methinks if you had been as aggressive about "policing" the obvious self-serving, self promotion of a certain Canadian asshole and his little group of sock-puppet offspring, this group might actually have a life and be of some value. As it is now, checking in on it once every two weeks is plenty. I'd also point out to the OP that the Superman logo is protected by international copyrights, and it's a fine line he's walking on infringement issues. Making a piece containing the logo for your own use is, while questionable, probably not going to get him in any legal hot water. Making even one for hire is a violation. |
