Rickresource Rickenbacker Forum

This has turned in to a nightmare & a far cry from what was initially invisaged...apologies to all.

However, as we can't contact Gary, I have decided to tackle the artwork. Mark Walker has kindly agreed to help with getting this CD out at last....we all want this finished ASAP.

I need a photograph of a Ric that could grace the cover...anyone have a suitable pic????? The artwork will be completed by next week & then it's just a question of distribution. Help, by providing a suitable pic would be very much appreciated.

BTW, I, as do others, hope that Gary is OK.

Thanks Tony. I appreciate you going to plan B on this project as it is long overdue. Thanks to all who have agreed to pick this project up. I am comforted that Gary has posted here as recently as a couple of hours ago and so it would seem that he is OK. I wish him the best.

I have always been amazed about how giving people are on the RickResource Forum. It is our very good fortune that there are always people here who are willing to pitch in at times when others may be less able. To the toppermost.

Thank you all!

I have lots of pics but primarily of basses! I would assume a guitar is more appropriate.

Just kidding!

Just a thought: maybe if all the contributors posted/sent pictures of themselves, a collage could be made out of them? Just a suggestion.
Good luck, Tony and everyone who also take part in that project.

how about the RRF logo picture above???

I'd be happy to work on something for you guys if you have an album title and everything.
(I'm a graphic design student and photographer)

I think it should be called "Nevermind the ********, Here's the Rick Pistols."

I would think that a gtr would be more appropriate Jeff.
Nice try Greg!!!
Sheena, that would take a great deal of time & I also think that when it was all reduced to the size of a CD, then we might struggle to see what's what....good idea for a poster though!

The RRF logo will be at the top Tom.

Thanks for the offer Wes, I'll contact you if I need to.

Alan...I had something a little more boring in mind!!

I still need a pic!!

Peter...you are more than welcome. It is the least we can do, for all you do!

Do you have a .tiff or .eps file of the Rick Resource logo? If you have a graphic of just the backwards/forward R's that would be even better, because simplicity is key to get an album cover to pop. Let me work on this a little, you might dig the results.

Here's a photo for you.

and a mockup of what the CD case could possibly look like

maybe a thumbnail of each of the RRF calendar shots...?
