Cute Tom :D

To the OP, I'm not a huge fan of graphics. That is my opinion. And to be honest, if I WERE to put graphics on my truck I would consider something different than what you've posted. I suppose the tire tracks are pretty cool but that font on the writing definitely needs to be changed. Something more sloppy or jagged to match the tire tracks.

HOW DARE YOU COVER UP THE FORDTRUCKFANATICS.COM GRAPHIC!!

Other than that, I like it, but agree that the name should be in a more comical font. :)

I want the font to be read easily and that is what i have now, but i am willing to entertain some font ideas if you all have some good ones on the 'puter. I have limited fonts on mine!

On edit the FTF sticker is going to be replaced with a different one so as to cover the tracks!

good man doc...

tire tracks would have to be mud colored if you ask me. You may have already planned on that, but I'm just tossing that out there. I'm not much of sticker guy past a pinstripe or political statement on the back glass, so my opinion probably shouldn't weigh too heavy in the thread here.

Looks good to me. Here is an idea of a different font. It's scribble in micro$oft notepad.

Thats more like it Tony!

I personally like Chiller (also in Microsoft notepad), it's the same font I used in my signature picture down below this post:

Crapola. I was wrong about the font name. It is called scratch.

Alrighty then! First up is Tony. You'll need Doc to PM you an e-mail address.

Tony:
1) Click on the 'Start' button.
2) Click 'Search'.
3) Select 'All files and folders'.
4) Type in "Fonts" and click the 'Search' button.
5) When the results come up, one should be the 'fonts' folder and it should say located in 'C:\Windows'.
6) Double clck this folder and it will open.
7) Scroll down to the name of the font you want and put the mouse cursor on it and click it with the left mouse button to highlight it blue.
8) At the top of the window, select the 'Edit' menu.
9) Click 'Copy' then close that window.
10) Now open up your e-mail program and select new e-mail.
11) Address it to Doc and click down into the field to type the main body.
12) Right click and select 'Copy'. This should attach the font file to the e-mail as an attachment.
13) Send. :)

Ok, done on Tony's side.

Doc:
1) When you get the e-mail from Tony, open it. Duh! lol
2) Double click on the attached file.
3) Click 'Save'.
4) Click 'Save' again.
5) Close out of the e-mail.
6) Click 'Start'.
7) Select 'Control Panel'.
8) Click 'Apperance and Themes'.
9) On the left side under "See also", Select 'Fonts'.
10) Click 'File' and select 'Install new font'.
11) On the bottom left of the window, double click the 'c:\'.
12) Double click 'Documents and Settings'.
13) Double click 'Valued Customer'. (Hopefully you'll know where to find this if you've changed some settings on your computer)
14) Double click 'My Documents'.
15) Now, in the top section of this window it is labeled "List of Fonts" and a box should show the font name you saved.
16) Click the name of the font to highlight it blue, then click 'OK'.
17) You now have the new font installed. Enjoy!
