TheJackal_jk2 Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Hey everybody! I've been away.... well mostly busy lately. Sorry for not droping by as often. Anyways, I'm the lucky bastardo to design the cover of my school's year book. The theme is the four elements (fire, water, air, earth). I have to present it the teacher in charge next week. But i want it to be PERFECT. Here's what I currently have. Please tell me what you think. Like, what should I add, remove, edit, etc. Thanks for the help in advance! (note: E.S.C. Garneau is the name of my school. Ecole Secondaire Catholic Garneau)
darthfergie Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 WOW the grass looks like the Windows XP background grass... GREAT JOB ON IT!!! I wish our yearbooks could be half as good (we get the busy bodies who havn't used a computer in their life to do ours... )
Darth_Rommel Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Jeez... you are a talented graphic artist, Jackal

My mère a rester en Alberta pour un bout de temps....c'est tout ce que je sait autre que la géographie générale. Es-tu comme nous et parles souvent l'anglais?
Guest Olsmo Lahun Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 oui, je ne parle francais que a l'ecole
TheJackal_jk2 Posted November 9, 2001 Author Posted November 9, 2001 Originally posted by Olsmo Lahun oui, je ne parle francais que a l'ecole hahah. moi c'est l'école, maison et ma blonde. Ottawa a une assez grosse communauté française donc je parle assez souvant. mais il y a beaucoup d'expression anglophones. Sacré en français sa va toujour etre utile though.

Sorry it had to come to this j/k lol It has very distinctive grass that is all:D BTW, what is your mascot???
TheJackal_jk2 Posted November 9, 2001 Author Posted November 9, 2001 Hum. I'll have to find a picture of it....it looks very....special All the school's sports teams are named Gaulois (norsmen) so here's a pretty big hint of what he looks like...just think cartoon-ish. btw, the web site is here: http://www.escgarneau.com (it is in french of course) [edit. FOUND IT. laugh all you want] . . . . . . . . . . .
Guest Olsmo Lahun Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 vrayment j'ai penser que s'aiter just le Quebec
darthfergie Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 ROTFL!!!! :D Oh man!!!! The norsemen!!! Man that is just TOO wierd *lol*
TheJackal_jk2 Posted November 9, 2001 Author Posted November 9, 2001 Originally posted by Olsmo Lahun vrayment j'ai penser que s'aiter just le Quebec Ben... s'il y en a en Alberta pourquoi pas a Ottawa, la capital. Et Ottawa est très près de Québec. ET le Canada est un pays qui a DEUX langues officiels, le français et l'anglais, donc sa fait du sence pour que la capital soit bilingue. Originally posted by darthfergie ROTFL!!!! :D Oh man!!!! The norsemen!!! Man that is just TOO wierd *lol* That is the reason why our mascott was never on any yeak book cover!
darthfergie Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Oh man...I just imagined what your cover would look like with your mascot standing there on it *ROTFL* :D can't breathe... :D

I wanna see YOUR school's mascot. and how about your school's webpage. I'm pretty impressed for my school's webpage. It won the best web page for the french catholic high school board contest thingy.
idiot00001 Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 That yearbook cover is great, and your mascot is hilarious.
darthfergie Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Now that would be giving away where I live, but I'll give you a pic... Mustangs...hurrraaayyy... Our school has no school spirit...that's why I like it so much;)
Zygomaticus Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 thats my schools website http://www.gunn.palo-alto.ca.us its a great school
Wraith 8 Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Ok.... let me try.. (DONT LAUGH) Je m apelle Erik Je habite A Pays Bas Je parle Francais un Petit peu. I hope i got that right... it has been 6 years since my last French class. I know a lot of french words but to understand complete sentences is a bit difficult for me. Nice cover.. Realy good man. you should come to my school. http://www.deltion.nl it is in Dutch ofcourse. but my school is the graphical department.
Guest m0rb Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Nice job One thing: I would drop the Bevel on the text if i was you, just ad a soft shadow to it and make it a bit transparent. And i think (soft-)orange would be nice as colour.
Guest Tie Guy Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Great job Jackal, that looks incredible. I once had to design a graphic for my schools yearbook. The theme was the sun, but it looked like crap compared to that. Mine was a simple yellow sun on an all black background (it wasn't my idea). It looked like what i wanted it too, i didn't want something elaborate, but it still didn't look to great. Anyways, for all of you french people out there... Je suis pantalon de ski! (no really!) I do know what it means btw.
Wraith 8 Posted November 9, 2001 Posted November 9, 2001 Je suis pantalon de ski! (no really!) I do know what it means btw. Je suis: i am pantalon: trowsers. pants de ski: something with ski's hey i get it.... your ski pants. i think you just said: i am ski pants. hahahha
