Larry, is that your illustration of a violin?

If so, you rock!

If not, you found a terrific piece of artwork.

The composition really sings, man.

My Best,

Gary

Had a go at recreating my old College degree which I lost and made the wording near as exact as I can remember, same with the fonts. The three fonts I used are Edwardian Script, Old English Text and Author Regular. The borders of the certificate are of course from the tut. by Frances. This new degree looks better than the original

You did a nice job on the degree Stygg, And I love that you made use of my tutorial, but the font play is supposed to feature the chosen font. This month it is Great Vibes from font squirrel.com

Um, the name of the song is the first line, Stygg!

The singer would be Justin Hayward, still playing in what's left of the Moody Blues, along with John Lodge and Graeme Edge.

Nice use of the typeface, by the way. You've lightened up what I always felt was a very "dark" song.
