Your picture - does it have to be a photo or will you take a graphic image?

Have you done an image search on Google, there were heaps there, but as for getting quality resolution to work from......?

I just saw a couple of film reels at istockphoto. com
Search for film.

I've searched Google and maybe i'm just not using the right words to search with. I would prefer NOT to have actual pictures, but instead graphic images. I'm trying to work it into a title for a site i'm building and i'd like to have the reel to one side of the title with maybe the film in the background. I'm not even sure if it would work or look well, but i'd like to give it a try. I checked istock, but again, i may have been trying to hard. I'll check there again.
thanks,
Lil

Try ask Jeeves. I was looking for a picture of the sears tower, the ones I have in my graphics programs are not exactly what I was looking for, and the ones on hemera were in black and white. So I did a search and found tons on Jeeves, just do the search and check pictures.

Still not sure exactly what you want, but I put this together as a starting point to better understand. It's crude, so tell me everything wrong with it and I'll see if I can come up with a better version. I haven't found anything in the stock gallery either.

can't you draw it in realdraw or whatever you have? doesn't it have any metallic textures or other effects? i can have a bash in the next couple of days if you like...

hi dave,
I'm just not all that proficient with the program yet. That's why I like clunking around and practicing with these various ideas that people have. For instance, I just can't get the metal texture to look right on the film reels yet. Luckily I have no shame, so I'll press on. I would like to see what you come up with - you seem to always have polished work. Then maybe share some notes?

I actually decided against using the graphic, but i thank everyone for their help. As it turns out, the layout for the site is a little more minimalist (real shock coming from me . . .) than I'd originally planned and their isn't much room for the graphic with the title, so i'm going bare bones.
thanks again,
Lil
