    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    I like the goofy one in the middle, Larry. How are you getting that fill?
    Mine is made using a shiny retro comic book style featuring the font Airstream.
    I created a vector halftone gradient fill using the Illustrator plugin Phantasm from Astute Graphics, which I clipped inside the innermost part of the design.

    Not sure which one you are referring to Bob if it's the 3rd from either side, that fill was done with Filter Forge. First I used the bevel tool then copied that to the clipboard then used Filter Forge. then pasted the clipboiard image in place selected both and intersected shapes. Thad got rid of the colored background and any other junk that Filter Forge created and left me with a nice clean image. Bye the way that was not the goofy one,The Goofy one has an eye and buck teeth. I like yours very much, it's clean and simple and has a great look to it.

    This is supposed to be an F but sure doesn't look like one, but even so I sort of like it. Maybe it's the color combination I like.

    Very cool Rik. That makes the one I'm working on pale by comparison.
