Need Paintshop & Photoshop help again.

[Doramius]

When it comes to artwork. I suck. Other than minor bitmap photochopping, I'm pathetic. And when I try to make really small images, I lose quality of the image. So these small tags really create problems for me.

Anyway, I need help from anyone who's willing to offer a little time, please. Thank yous to SquirrelDip, Adam, and everyone else that contributed for the help last time. We used all the different versions. They were all just too good to not use.

Now I need PayPal buttons. The size is 88x31 and it should have a visible PayPal on it, but it needs this logo on it.


Multiple buttons would be fine with each button having different wording at the bottom like:

-General Donation
-SWBFII
-BF2
-WOLF ET
-JKA
-BF1942
-WGO GAME

Again, I keep getting into the trouble of size, as I can't get it small enough and clear. This is what I've got on my own, so far. Anything but spectacular, IMO. And No Logo. :/
What I want to do, is Keep "PayPal", but remove that World and yellow arrow.

Have you considerd animated buttons? I'm not too handy with these but maybe someone else...

[Doramius]

I've never used an animated button before. We could always try one and see if it works. If it does, then we can try it with the others. I have absolutely no program to do animation artwork with either. :/

I'm sure it'll work as long as the size requirements are good. I'm up for it.

Use a shadow that will contast with the text.

[Doramius]

Sure....if only MS paint had that option. :/

The problem is that the world in the paypal logo is an oval and yours is a circle. If you make it fill the whole width it looks funny.



Here's one idea.

[Doramius]

WOw, thanks adam. Yeah, I don't really care if it fits the whole circle or not. I just wanted a Logo on it. These are really good though.

I think I can use both of those. Is it possible on the bottom one to move "PayPal" up, and have one of these sayings in the box on the bottom, like the WGO is showing in the top button:

-General Donation
-SWBFII
-BF2
-WOLF ET
-JKA
-BF1942
-WGO GAME

So basically be creating 7 different buttons.

I think this is what you meant.

[BJ_M]

you can not use their logo that way legally -- and they enforce the rules

https://www.paypal.com/en_US/pdf/merchant_graphic_guidelines.pdf

[Doramius]

I'm pretty sure that's for merchants only. As a registered PayPal merchant, if you're selling a product or service you're required to have that setup, just like If you accept MC or Visa. I read the same information at the PayPal site before I decided to have the buttons created.

This is just a private PayPal account for accepting charitable donations. They had no guidelines other than have the blue "PayPal" visible, and even that was not required as long as the standard PayPal logo was visible somewhere on the same page as the buttons. Which it is.

[BJ_M]

doesnt mater who/what you are //// the use of the paypal logo (which is a trademark etc (adam can explain)) use is restricted as to use and display .. it is quite specific as to this in their guidelines

[Doramius]

So what you're saying is create the buttons without the word PayPal?

[BJ_M]

right - there has to be a certain distance between etc .....

[Doramius]

OK.

adam - can you create the same buttons but remove the 'PayPal'?

[adam]

Ok I updated the previous buttons to remove Paypal.

[Doramius]

You ROCK.
