Simple Request - Add text to existing logo?

RayofHope · 07-26-2004, 02:45 AM

Howdy all, having trouble adding "arched" text to the top and bottom of this logo, can someone help me out by adding this to it?

Arching around the top of the logo, the letters "AABF" and down the bottom of the circle, by the players feet, and perhaps in a slightly smaller font size, "Est. 2004".

I prefer the font type - I think it's called Sylfean? - but some creative license here is fine if you think a different type looks better - I've just been using Sylfaen for most of the league stuff.

Preferable if text color is solid black letters - which may make the use of the sylfaen type difficult - so do what you prefer.

I'd like the letters ABOVE the circle, not inside on the red, but above the outer ring and below the outer ring in the case of the "Est. 2004".

It would be greatly appreciated - it's driving me nuts cause I can't fulfill my vision.

Thanks.

Here's the logo:

Thank you gents - now I have a couple of alternates.

I have an older version of Photoshop, in the new versions you can bend lettering, in the one I have, I can't. (If I can, I haven't located where the tool that allows it is).

Currently, if I want to "bend" text around a circle, I have to do it one letter at a time and then rotate and place it as best I can on the circle.

This was an option I hadn't considered when I made this request, and I haven't yet tried it, but I'm at the stage where I'll be developing my conference and division logos, so I may give it a try! The logo you were adding text to is my League Logo.

Thanks again.
