| Looking for clip art/3 crossed blades
I'm looking for a image of the 3 fencing blades crossed that could be used for a t-shirt design.
Anyone one have one to share or have a direction to point me in?
Thanks,
L |

| Here's something I threw together using graphics of weapons that I made for my club images: http://bsufc.iweb.bsu.edu/cross-weapons.gif
If you need it in a different file format, colors, or arranged differently, let me know and I'll send you the PSD Photoshop file. I made it rather large so that it will transfer to a shirt with minimal distortion. | |

| Wouldn't the epee be a French grip and the Foil be a pistol?

| Would it be a problem to get french on both? I'd like to see how that looks. I'll show you what I come up with with each once they're finished. | |

I made it rather large so that it will transfer to a shirt with minimal distortion. | Try making it 300 dpi in Photoshop (it's currently at 72 dpi). It'll transfer with really good resolution and detail for any non-web application. The file size will jump but the outcome will be better. Better yet is to re-create the image in Illustrator (or any vector format app) and save it in AI or as an eps file. Then it can be resized w/o losing detail and be used for other things. I'd also put a point at the end of the weapons... | |

| Okay, here is the Adobe Illustrator remake that I did today. I would just like to state for the record that I hate Adobe Illustrator. Yes, it is good for making vector-based graphics, but half the time I can't do what I want. Photoshop is so much easier to use.
Both images are rather large (300 dpi): http://bsufc.iweb.bsu.edu/weapons.jpg - white background, black weapons http://bsufc.iweb.bsu.edu/weapons.gif - transparent background, black weapons
I edited it so the epee and foil both have french grips and the sabre has a better looking guard. | |

AF | Yeah, just some generaly knowledge for everybody that comes across this thread. Feel free to use this graphic for your clubs/teams/whatever. If you need something a little different, or the weapons in a different order (or different grips) just let me know.
All I ask in return is that if someone asks where you got your graphic, just point them to my website: http://www.kobystudios.com, or just say "some random dude on Fencing.net made them."
