DOM (Pig) vs. ING (Lion)

I think it came out quite nicely,

and I learned how to use Illustrator and InDesign 

a bit more in the process.

(And if you disagree, please reserve your opinions,

because I spent at least two and a half hours getting it this close,

and then I walked home, mostly starved, 

and in drizzling rain, without any appropriate rain attire.)

It looks fuckin' good.

I used the colors from a more updated logo, 

with the eyedropper tool!,

which is why they look a bit off from this one

though this one was our main model.

My design team (Wee/Jon) also preferred having a line.

My mom thinks we should include the year,

but Wee and I think that by including the year,

we won't be able to reuse the shirts as an investment for other times

Dom might choose to run the marathon.

We'll see.

I found the pig online,

and I used Illustrator to fix him up into the pig that I wanted,

and that's what took like two hours.

That you can't just highlight the image and select the color

to change the selected image to that color is beyond me.

(Hint: Use the sparkler/magic-wand thing.

Then press: Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, A, B, A, B, start,

and you're closer than I was a few hours ago.)

Thanks, random Internet person, for posting the pig though.

I tried drawing a Picasso-like pig,

but it didn't look anything like the ING lion's style obviously.

It's not that Dom loves pigs

as much as he adores eating them,

but a slab of orange-y woodcut-looking bacon

looked stupid.

Now it's time to make some T-shirts

in time for the big race!
