    I posted two examples, dire.

    The top says THE OCELOT
    and the bottom says GAUGED BY GLASS

    Grindcore graphics is well...
    Grindcore is a genre of music, and it's a crazy kind, so they have crazy logos.

    Stuff like that, when there are clear examples of them, makes me think he's hungry for posts :roll:


    But anyway, how do you make them? Do you use photoshop, is it a font you download, what?

    If there was a font, it would be the same as everyone elses and kind of ruin the idea ;)

    I use photoshop, and the creator drew his...it's all personal preference.

    Here's an edit I did with the one he made:

    They're definitely interesting but I can only read a few of them. Not my style but I do like the insomniac one. :)

    The ones that were done by your friend are quite sick.

    Ill try my hand on it sometime this week - you just scribble everything yourself? I'm going to have a heck of a time trying to do it.

    Yeah, it's pretty hard, I'm just beginning...
    In photoshop, I usually use one of the lasso tools and draw it out and filll it in.

    I'm trying them by hand, and I must say it looks better...

    I'm going to try to make one for a local band, they don't have one and are pretty big :)

    It's pretty hard, though! The Ocelot took me about 6 hours total, probably, and I still haven't cut out all of that dumb grain it put on.

    That's my weak attempt. I just drew it freehand with a small brush in like 20 minutes.

    I'm just not sure how to draw out the individual letters! It pained my hand, too. I guess I'm not very good at this...

    It's not horrible! Just basically you're supposed to take a normal letter, and like, mess it up, and make it look like it would hurt you if you touched it? hahaha.

    Well thats the only one i can think of now, but alot of death/black metal bands use this type of writing.
