Careful about your drooling! We don't want to short the keyboard out!

Orion24 · September 2nd, 2009, 10:40 PM

Yes, Drool is Very Bad for Circuitry.

I've already almost had to replace a keyboard or two...

Here's another Terminal, This one is for the Galactica Bridge.

Enjoy.

Bill

Orion24 · September 14th, 2009, 11:55 AM

I Fear This is the last Battlestar Galactica Terminal I will do, The problem is I have no more Symbols to work off of, I'm Pretty Sure I used them all up, My goal was to make Terminals from the Symbols I had from the GalacticaBats Font, Which I did, I basically used all the Fonts and Symbols I could Find, You have to remember the show was only on for one Season, So it's very difficult to come up with Ideas for Terminals when you don't have anymore Symbols from BSG TOS, I researched them and tried to put the correct wording in them, That was my Goal, Now it's Done, As far as I know. I may make a few more, But I will only be from my Imagination, Using the same Symbols in a Different Way.

But I hope you like this Semi-Last one, It's my Interpretation of The Presidents Personal Terminal, The Symbol is suppose to be the Seal of the 12 Colonies, There is some dispute about this Symbol being that, But I'm using it for it anyway.

Enjoy.

Orion24 · September 15th, 2009, 09:14 AM

I Switched some colors around on the Presidents Terminal.

Enjoy.

Bill

Promus · September 15th, 2009, 10:32 AM

Excellent work!! I especially approve of the screens with Athena on them!

I really like the Presidential screens, as well. All good things must come to an end, I suppose, and you did a genius job doing as many screens as possible given the source material.

Now I'll have to gather up some Buck Rogers logos for you to use!

Cmdr.Kerner · September 15th, 2009, 11:04 AM

Hi Bill,

wow, I love your graphics. This is really fantastic, Glen A. Larson should see your art work.

Dietrich

Orion24 · September 15th, 2009, 11:33 AM

I Appreciate it Promus and Dietrich, Thank You Both, But it's not really over yet, I found a few more fonts that I can use for another Terminal, I just started it, So it should be up next week, But you know me it might be up sooner.

Thanks Again Guys.

Bill

Promus · September 15th, 2009, 12:13 PM

Do you happen to know what this font is? If I'm not mistaken, it was used in other Glen Larson show openings.

Sorry Promus, I tried 2 different sites to try and Identify that exact font and nothing came up, But there may be something close to it on other Font sites, If I come across it I'll let you know and I will keep looking for you.

Bill

Athene · September 15th, 2009, 05:26 PM

I'm wondering what that font is too.
It's also used in the opening credits of TOS BSG.

Athene · September 15th, 2009, 05:28 PM

I also really like those terminals.

What program did you use to create them?

Orion24 · September 15th, 2009, 07:40 PM

Thank You Athene, I actually use about 5 different programs for the Terminals, But I usually get away with using 2 or 3, I start them in MS Paint then I use Inkscape and if I have to I use Photoshop or Ultimate Paint and then Irfanview, If I work non stop on a Terminal it usually takes me about 3 hours, The thing that takes the most time is the research, Not only for the Symbols but the wording, You have to convert English over to TOS BSG words, I want to be as authentic to TOS as Possible and try to do the show Justice.

I thought that as well, but I re-watched an opening credits sequence and I didn't see it. I was probably just watching the wrong version, though!

And I didn't know there was a member here named after Athena! I'll have to be your unofficial fanboy now.

I'm still getting used to seeing "TOS" used to refer to something other than Classic Star Trek!

I Think I found the Font Promus, It's called Nasalization you can get it here: http://simplythebest.net/fonts/fonts/nasalization.html

I Just checked again, It's real Close but some of the letters are a little different.

The Originals are always the Best.

Hi Bill and Promus,

this font has got more than one name: Denmark Regular, TrekDS9 Credits, Handel Gothic BT, Slider Regular.

If you don't find it in the web, just send me a PM with your email address, I've got them on HD.

Greetings from Germany

Dietrich

Orion24 · September 16th, 2009, 09:23 AM

Thanks Dietrich, Here are the Links: http://ww.fontstock.net/2656/denmark-regular.html and http://www.fontyukle.com/en/Trek+DS9+Credits+Text.ttf and http://www.free-fonts-ttf.org/true-t...4-download.htm and http://www.fontyukle.com/en/Slider+Regular.ttf
The only problem that I can see is the letter R, In the BR credits the bottom right of the R is a little rounded these other fonts as well as the one I found have the same problem with the R, Instead of it being rounded it's straight, But I think these are as good and as close as your going to get.

Thanks Again Dietrich.

Bill

Cmdr.Kerner · September 16th, 2009, 09:54 AM

No problem Bill,
you're welcome

Dietrich

Promus · September 16th, 2009, 03:01 PM

Hey, that's just about perfect!! Thanks guys, it's much appreciated.

LOL Nice to have a fan

Which version do you have? I have both the movie version and the boxed set.
Both of the opening credits have the same font.

Hallo Athene,

mir geht es gut, in 4 Wochen bin ich wieder in Florida bei der Crew der USS Haven. Hast Du Deutsch in der Schule gehabt?

Bis dann

Hi Bill,
wouldn't it be easier to use only one graphic software for your designs. Since nearly 3 years I'm using the Corel Graphics Suite 12 for all my art work, and I'm more than satisfied with it.

Hallo Dietrich!

Ich wuchs auf, Deutsch sprechend.
Ich sprach wirklich Deutsch, bevor ich Englisch durch das Alter fünf sprach!

Machs Gut!
