I am currently working on a flyer for a weekly club. The name of this club is called 'THE STYLE' @ the Glass Kat. The promoter is looking to use Metallic colors. FOr all the graphic designers out there... the colors will be 4 with a 5 and 6(SILVER AND GOLD). I have not designed flyers in 5 years and was wondering if anyone out there know how to set the colors so the pronter can trancend the film to read what is silve and what is color. This project is due by Wednesday and going to the press the same night.

Let me know if you guys have anything.

Also.. I am looking for a site online that has snaps/photos of models in the most up to date fashion gear. Sunglasses/Jackets/Denim/Skirts/Males/Females... Etc..

Thanks!

I can tell you how to do it, but it depends on what application you are using to create the piece. And it might be a rather long explanation.

Also, I'm not sure whether you're intending to use those web images in the flyer, but if you are, you should be aware that the image quality in print will most likely be dreadful.

Do you have a SN on AIM - AOL?

I am using Photoshop 6. The web images may be used as small, small, small pieces. I will have to see how the res turns out. You are right.. Web images do and will come out bad on a high res file.

Let me know. Would appreciate it much.

You can also email me... maybe I can give you a call tomorrow.

Thanks Ro-Monster

ya better have EPS files for dem graphics. i think all ya gotta do is tell em which ones ya want the foil stamping on. let em sort it out. i don't think they do the FS while printing the normal CMYK inks. i've never seen it done anyway when i was at the apex die printer.

going straight to press w/o any proofs? man, i hope that turns out semi-decent...

Thanks RO for the assistance. I remember working withsomeone on this before. But I forgot that creating another channel would do this. Thanks for the help!
