Just Ok! Thank’s! :bounce:

Thanks! To be honest, I can’t stand illustrator, it’s so counter-intuitive. (I mean, I have difficultly getting anything decent out of it, because I am rubbish at it :blush: )

However, for some reason, Inkscape, which uses .svg as its basic format, I have little to no problems with. Go figure... :)

Anyway, thanks for converting them!

Ben

Edit: (PS With Linux/KDE, I can use it directly as a background… it works really well on a dual screen)

Hey all, the .eps ones I downloaded were jpegs or something that had been inserted into an .ai file and saved as .eps. They are not vector line art. I will go ahead and convert these for vinyl cutting. I can make vinyl stickers of these logos, for anyone interested, for a fee I don’t know what would be yet. If you all in charge want to contact me regarding making these vinyl stickers available to society members, feel free to do so, and we can work something out.
They can be, black, white, or whatever. Even brushed chrome. They would be made with 3M transfer tape, and would have a shelf life, but vinyl makes for a nice clean look. Prolly not much use to webslingers, but great for windows and cars and stuff. If anyone knows the fonts, that would greatly speed the conversion.

If vector art is avaible now, I’ll redownload.

Before I go on, I just want to make it clear that I am not part of the CGNetwork team, and have converted these on my own. If they are not up to scratch, Mods, you know what to do.

I have converted the Adobe Illustrator .svg to generic .svg and exported it as vector .eps (I hope). I (rapidly) cleaned the .svg of most adobe-only parts to the point that it would work in Inkscape (www.inkscape.org), and I think it still looks as it should do, whilst being a lot smaller.

So, the svg files should work in inkscape/sodipodi as well as hopefully still being importable into Illustrator. The .eps should be standard…

Use these with discretion… MODS: If these offend, please remove…

Hi ben_o, nice conversion. The .eps files open in AI just fine. It looks good to me, I was about to convert myself, but in doing so, at least I have found the font match: the “CG” is Square721BdExBT, and the thinner copy is Square721ExBT. This would allow the ability to add copy to materials, but there might be some guidelines for that.

#56

ahhhhh, many thanks for these…:arteest:

#57

Thanks for the logos. I’m in the middle of redesigning my site and wanted to somehow show my affiliation with CGSociety. I’ve downloaded all the files with no problems at all.

Is there a version of the little cg society member logo, that appears underneath our avatars, in a format with transparency info (.png?) ?

That would be handy for slapping on member homepages.

#59

I just saved the image file to my computer, photoshoped the gray part out, uploaded it to my site, and puesto. Here is the link to file if you are interested:

Sorry for the question, I saw the thread and came to see what’s going on in here, downloaded the logos and decompressed with winrar smootly, with no problems, …but, what are they for?:shrug:

Hello Climax. As I have mentioned in some earlier conversations about this I believe they are good to display on your site and on your printed material because those visiting your personal website, possibly business prospects, see you being a member of a great learning resource as a plus. Of course we all know it truly comes down to talent whether or not you get work but its always helpful when people see you love your craft so much that you become members of various groups and organizations that relate to it. That type of thing will go that extra mile when getting hired for a gig. For me, joining NAPP (National Association of Photoshop Professionals) was a benefit because not only can I use there logo on my material but it portrays sense professionalism.

Thanks for the explanation gstapleton, yeah, it is a goood idea :thumbsup:

#63

So I guess these are for us to use for a website and stuff like that?:shrug:

#64

Cool thanks :slight_smile: I was wondering what they were for hehe :smiley:

#65

Cool, cool! Really nice to pop in your personal website!

BTW, is the new portfolio section not the best? Way to much fun!

Thanks to much!

:thumbsup:

No problems for me.

Being a new pay member as of tonight I don’t want to overstep my bounds so I hope this is kosher. People (including me) seemed to want the “member” logo for their sites. So I went ahead and recreated it all vectory. I’m no guru with the old Pen tool but I think it looks pretty nice. Included is a PSD file with everything on it’s own layer plus paths for the “CG” logo and the two fonts mentioned by Chiaroscuro.
