Aida,

this is my first try, admittedly not great but at least I got it to create a large PNG within 10 minutes of trying!

....

....

Oh, CARP !!!!

File attachments larger than 384K are not allowed !

Hmmm.  Well, you can PM me with your email address and I can email it to you - it is less than 1 MB. (I hope that you don't have dial-up)!

Not exactly.  Mike got a pretty good size file, but the pixelation issues were still there.  I guess the main problem is we're starting with a small resolution and trying to enlarge.  Not sure much is going to help that issue.  

Still have the issue with not being able to use the rondel with cafepress anyway, so I've sort of put the project on hold.  

You have any suggestions or help, John?

I ran across a site that produces custom banners for auto and motorcycles, custom banners are available, minimum number of banners, or flags is 20 .


http://buyracingflags.com/

Custom flags section, is at the bottom of the motorcycle page .

Don't know if this will help out or not .

I may try again after things calm down a bit - holiday guests, a new client, and bike preparations for the trip are taking up my time...

Tangentially related here (pardon the pun),  after trying dozens of trials and freeware a couple of years ago I ended up installing two programs on my computer that enabled an unschooled nabob to draw simple circuit diagrams,  labels, and 3d drawings.   DIA is a tiny little freeware diagramming program that is smilingly intuitive (and obviously limited for any professional purpose, but that's fine with my needs).

Google Sketchup free version is also remarkably intuitive.   I've been able to email 3d viewable versions of ideas/objects to others by using Sketchup.   This isn't photo editing, but kind of on topic here anyway.
