Badge Art

March 25 th, 2007 by No Rules

When you design your badge use as many colours as you like, but be sure to work at 300 dpi, i have a downloadable template for 25mm available to help - the 55mm will be posted soon! simply right click on the link and save to your hard-drive. The template you will work on is pictured below (BUT DO NOT right click and save this pic as it will only be at 72 dpi). When you feel you have a badge design you like, print one out and see what it looks like in real life! Sometimes what is displayed large as life on your screen, becomes unreadable when actual size. Sometimes a simple bold design is better than a fiddly multi coloured one.

Formats that are best for submitting your art

So you've designed the perfect badge, now you have to get it to me! I use photoshop so ideally you would save the design as a .psd file and burn it to disc and send it to me by post, if you don't use photoshop save it as something i can open!! an .eps or jpg (uncompressed) would be the best. If you want to submit the art via e-mail no problem, but send it as a .jpg do NOT compress the image, use high quality - the file will still only be about 250-400k
