    Default Need Help with a baseball font

    I need to complete this design for my company's softball team shirts. This is how I want it to look but I can't get the swash or tail to look right. I used the Marcelle Swash font for it because it's free, but no matter how much photoshop I do to it nothing seems to look right. I've seen a couple people on this forum make something very similar to what I'm looking for in this forum:

    and was hoping someone could be so kind as to help me out, too. I don't want to pay $39 for the Letterhead Font I could use, considering I'd only use it once and the company isn't going to reimburse me for it. So this is what I'm looking for, without the weathered tail:

    I appreciate any help you can give me, if you'd be so kind as to email it to me when you're done as well as post it here, I'd very much appreciate it. I used the Ballpark free font. The guy at the graphics shop told me it has to be emailed to him as an "eps vector." my email is tjmcmahon78@gmail.com, please help out if you can, take liberties with the design if you want, but keep the basic design, please. It's going to be a single color screenprint.

    Welcome to talkgraphics.

    I found a photoshop tut on tracing a pic that maybe you could use to create the tail you are looking for. http://www.webmonkey.com/webmonkey/9...html?tw=design

    The font Lokicola seems to be the closest matching free font to
    your example. The swash is on the "H" and could easily be doctored
    to suit, or removed and placed on the second "s".
    Saludos,
    Bob.
