I need some help from the people good with graphics

I need some help from the more expearenced people who know what their doing with the computer programs like adobe, and stuff.
I am going on the 8th of feb. to get some new ink, and i want to get something in memory of my father, i know what i want, i just cant quite figure out what text i want on it, and everything i seem to try doesnt look right for some reason, this is what i like the best so far out of all the things i came up with:


I want . 's in between the initials though, and that text doesnt have it, no big deal just letting anyone know who is going to try and make something else.
I want the colors the same for the letters, only thing i cant seem to get right are the letters, cant decide what text to use, where to place it, etc.
Please help me out, thanks

Re: I need some help from the people good with graphics

just a suggestion, use a tilde (one of these '~' things) or slashes for the dates, see how you like it.

Sort of off topic but I take it your Father was a die-hard biker due to the H-D design.

That, and he was also killed in a motorcycle accident so it all ties together...
Not really an accident though, some drunk bitch blew a red light, hit him and she only got a $175 fine, no time in jail or anything like that for killing somebody and drunk driveing...
I can honestly say if i had her name, and knew where she lived i dont know if i could control myself

Re: I need some help from the people good with graphics

I'll give this a shot. I'm a graphic designer by trade, so I should be able to come up with something decent.

How big is this tat going to be?

I did this quick in Paint.



If someone does something really awesome, I'll up my game to GIMP or Photoshop, possible Fireworks or Maya (I'm a graphic designer by trade).

Re: I need some help from the people good with graphics

Jet, thanks for the time taken but i dont really like the text, looks like something youd see in a comic book or something i want it to be kinda serious but still have style you know, and i dont think i like the ~'s definatly in that text, maybe its just the text though
The tat is going to be the exact same size of that image, i was going to walk in and give my artist that picture and have him trace it on my shoulder, and get to work.
Everyone keeps saying i could just show him that and he could work with me on getting the exact thing i wanted, but for some reason i want to walk in and already know exactly what i want.... just for this occasion.

Lets make this a bit more exciteing... to the person whos image i pick.. i will give them $45 via paypal on feb. 7th, and i will post up a picture on the 8th of the tattoo finished

The font I used was Comic Sans, so it should look like a comic book. Wasn't too sure what you were goin for. I'll get to work in GIMP.
