/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I agree with Rentlar, very nicely done. It's always fun to "remaster" an older piece and do it justice.
Ah, the TNG end credits font. Nice text effect, is that a bevel or a 3d style effect?
Used Paint 3D to add the effect. I don't have PS and have no idea what other resources are worthwhile. Most of my work is on mobile, but what I use there can't add new fonts. Only been at it a little less than a year, but damned if it isn't fun.
Check out Paint.NET. It is free and has some of the basic features of Photoshop.
Thanks, I'll give it a whirl.
You mostly work on mobile? Your turnaround times are impressive. Yep, it sure is fun!
On my laptop, I've had much success using Photopea for the past few months. It's pretty good for a browser-based image editor, it takes care of basic image editing pretty well. One of the things I like is how it manages fonts; it doesn't have any Trek fonts pre-loaded, but if you load one from your computer, it'll load in Photopea's font selection for you whenever you load the site in the browser. Just as long as you don't move the file, that is. There's also a "Local Fonts" option where I guess you can use whatever fonts you have installed on your computer, but the feature appears to be disabled in Firefox. Oh, and I have a dropshadow style and an outline image effect style that also load (ready to apply to an image) along with several Trek fonts. It's nice having them available.
Very good to know. As far as my reaction time: simple tools, working at a desk, and seasoned search/reference skills help a lot.
