Next problem LOL.... everyone's photos will need a title and their name on a small name plate under/above the photo otherwise they will be difficult for anyone to identify for ordering purposes :-)

SO does anyone want to take this little job on so that they all have a uniform look to them?

I think I names all Gary, Rick and Mine in the jpegs titles.

Happy to produce standard set of labels/name plates.

I would use the Font I use for Pic Names on my forum posts images if that ok. Let me know?

Hi Wayne, the photos themselves have no names or titles that people viewing them could see...... I was thinking that if people viewed them how would they actually order them if no names or titles are visable???

So if that makes sense and you don' mind doing that..it would cool, thanks.

Isn't that quite a scripty handwriting type of font? Alex please don't kill my lack of bad understanding of typography!!

Something more plain like Impact or Trebuchet looking in Word would be my suggestion?

If you want an industry standard typeface then use "Helvetica"...if you don't have it then I'll cry. I was shown a 3 hour video on the damn font! Its the most readable and acceptable typeface in the world. I have it on my mac however, so if you need...then.....(will I regret this?) I could offer help?

Say hello to Helvetica!

Or there's my favourite! Gill Sans

(I forgive you by the way Diane, you tried at least! Oh and Impact was a good suggestion, it's what I used for the banner.)

Helvetica for me, I'm going with the expert, and I'm guessing these are going to be fairly small - only 14 point or so anyway..?

Alex, my degree is in Computer Science - a world away from this :lol:
