Super Metroid Logo Help

[e_brugal]

I've been getting use to Photoshop so I will play around with it. One last quest sheep2001. Where did you get the lettering for Eris? Thanks everyone  for all the help!

i think hi use the Super mEtRoId letters (ERIS) and just use the upper part of those letters deleting the blue and dark gray part

[Tempius]

Ah, that's what I was thinking. So there would be no way to replicate that font for letters not found in "Super Metroid"?

[sheep2001]

Well, most letters shouldn't pose too much of a problem..... What words are you after?

[Tempius]

As of right now Phazon, Ice Metal Uninstall, Z-Factor, and Zero Mission.

Took quite a long time - think i might have to find a different method for the longer titles if you want them in the same style - i'm sure it would take 10 mins in illustrator, if only i could use the damn thing.  Anyone out there want to jump in?

The back tesxt definitely needs a drop shadow or a black stroke around the letters to make them pop.  Not keen on the fonts you chose either, but thats just personal preference.  Cover itself is pretty nice.

[Tempius]

I have just been using the font that was already chosen. Is there a universal or preferred font for covers?

[Arseen]

I would move the whole back text 0.5-1 gray bars worth down ( I don't like the wy it touches the top)

[sheep2001]

i dont think there is a standard font, but i could be wrong.

For me, I like something simple like 'Impact' - stick a stroke on it, and a drop shadow, and it looks like this:


But as I say - it's just my preference - it's a custom cover, so you do what you think looks best for you.

[Tempius]

Thanks for the suggestions! I updated Phazon and Eris.
