Watch Dial Design

Postby foxint » Wed Dec 31, 2008 7:58 am

HI Everyone

I am just new to the world of Inkscape.

I am trying to teach myself the programme, but I am finding it difficult alone and with no backgroudn in the area.

I am looking for someone or persons to help me with some watch dial designs. Essentially I would like the person to translate my ideas into SVG, so I can have the dial made. Alos things like logo re-design and logo templates, so I can print the logo on to ready made dials.

It should be a really easy job for the skilled operator. It is my hobby so I do nto have a great deal of money, just time and enthusiasm.

http://www.foxtime.ch
is the web address. I plan for a coupl of new design for 2009

Hope you can help
regards
Dan

You'll find the Inkscape Guide most helpful.

Why would you want someone else to do your hobby? :shock: If someone offers to do your work for you, great, but most have our own hobbies without doing someone else's for them--so don't hold your breath :D

Having said that, you'll find most of us are quite generous when it comes to helping people learn (teach a man to fish).

Off topic:
I'm moving this to the offtopic forum since it's about soliciting work, rather than help with Inkscape.

Did you mean something like this?

It took me 2.5 hours to make, I used one of the photos from your website.

Do you have a larger file of the logo? It would be much easier to vectorize high res picture.
