We have just launched our Gallery Page as a companion to this blog. The aim is to showcase our typefaces in action.
We’ve started off with a small collecton of our own design work promoting “Ambrosine Chocolates and it’s putative French sister product “Chocolat Ambrosin”.
However, we’d welcome any Gallery contributions from users of our typefaces-which can be e-mailed to gatf1@live.com in .png, .jpg or .pdf formats. A fully licensed copy of Absinette Regular will be supplied to everyone whose work is displayed in the gallery. Feel free to base your work on any of out faces (including the free ones on Myfonts.com) and let us know your prefered format for Absinette regular .ttf or .otf, as well as what acknowledgement you’d like your ontribution to be credited with.
Here’s a sample image from the gallery to whet your appetites:
I really like Svengali Roman. How can I apply the kind of metallic effect you used in the Chocolate Ambrosine sample?
Mogan, Glad you like Svengali. The metalic effect’s not to difficult to do, with Photoshop layer effects-you need to use Gradient Overlay, Bevel (et to ‘Hard Chisel’) and Inner Glow in that order. There are lots of web tutorials out there-just search for ‘photoshop gold plated lettering’.
