great work, i can move the logo but can't resize, what am i missing? thanks

Awesome! Simply Awesome!

Four suggestions/requests:

1. Some sort of reset would be useful if you want to create multiple caps.

2. There is at least one other texture for caps. Perhaps, we could have an option to choose between the two.

3. Can we choose how thick the font/image outline is?

4. It is minor, but sometimes i make the holes in the front of the cap a different color than the main part of the cap like this,

Admittedly, i'm being greedy here. The app really is great as is. Your programs came along just in time for me to start a new dynasty. Thanks again.

If it is an image, just hover over the image with your mouse, then use your mouse wheel to increase/decrease the size of the image.

1. I'm not sure this is needed.

2. What texture is that?

3. It's a 1 pixel outline now and I guess I could add a 2 pixel, but any more than that would be too much.

4. I'll look into that.

I have considered it, but I don't think it's gonna happen. There's just too many options for jerseys.

That said, I will play around with it when I get a chance and see what's possible.

This came from a cap_template_V1.0.psd file that was posted some time ago. It is too big for me to upload. i'm guessing it is still floating around somewhere. Anyway there are two other textures in there too. A mesh and a knit texture are there

Great utility, Justafan. Is it possible could add some cap piping like this...

Hankyu Braves · 08-09-2014, 07:22 AM

I'm going to echo everyone else's sentiment. Thank you justafan for this wonderful tool.

As for the jersey creator... I'll lit a candle every night.
