Hello All, long time listener, first time caller. I am starting the process of ordering a 600-1000 chip ASM (HH mold i think) custom set. Still wrestling with colors/denominations. Just ordered a sample set, just to be sure the ASMs are what I am looking for, but wanted to start the design process while I wait. And here comes the big problem! I have no graphic skills whatsoever.

I think I have a pretty good starting idea for my chips for a Naval Aviation (specifically Helicopters) theme, but can't get that idea to paper. I have no idea how to turn a pic into a watermark. I also have some pretty cool pictures, but don't know how they will transfer to a chip face.

Anyway, long story short, I am looking for help from some of the talented folks around here. As I saw in Lumpy's post earlier, I would gladly offer up a sample set (5-6 denoms, i think) of the final chips to the eventual designer. Thanks in advance for any help.

Well, with the limited amount of info you gave, is this what you had in mind? Watermarked the image so it's not full opacity, threw a denom on there... I dunno. What do you think?

Wow, I still find it amazing that you can throw something together like that so quickly. Sorry about the lack of info, still trying to get this posting thing down.

I guess I should have included something to the effect of "if interested, PM me and I'll send along my ideas and pictures"

I do like what you did with the picture (except of course it's Army ) I also think I came up with my first cut at color/denoms:

1$ - White/Imperial Blue
5$- Red/Gray
25$ - Green/DG Peach
100$ - Black/DG Pink
500$ - Purple or Lavender / NEED good spot color here
Non denom - Pink

Comments on those are much appreciated as well...

I have a ton of Navy graphics if you need them.

Those are good colour choices, go with them. As for the image, it's funny. I typed in "Navy Helicopters" in Google, and that's what came up. Crazy... If you want anything else, PM me with details and I'll see what I can whip up.

Google needs to check its files, the AH-64 Apache is exclusively an Army platform. Nice picture and design on your part though.
