Copyright Size & Clarity Info
Please keep the following things in mind when adding your copyrights to tags. It will make them much easier to read as well as clearer.
While we do not want the copyright info to distract from the tag itself, there are some things which can help to make it legible and clear.
1) The artist copyright & URL should be readable without having to magnify the tag. This means we should be able to look at the tag at the size you post it and not need to increase it or zoom in to see the copyright.
2) Please make sure you add the copyright info AFTER you resize your tag the final time. Doing so before makes the copyright very hard to read and it distorts the clarity as well.
3) If you wish to use a pixel font for your copyright info, take a little time and figure out which size it works best at. Many of the pixel fonts have certain sizes where they are best at so test it to find out. Then use the font at the size which it is best read at.
4) Be sure to have your anti-alias set to off for pixel fonts. An exception to this is when doing your pixel fonts on a curve. You need to use sharp or smooth at this time only. Make sure to remember to set your anti-alias to sharp or smooth for display fonts.
5) Do not use bold on your pixel fonts.
6) Please remember to use a color for your font which can be easily readable against the color which it is set against. It is very hard to read dark color on dark color or light on light. You want your copyright font color to stand out and be easily readable as well as located on the tag.
For some FTU pixel fonts please check:

If you have any questions please ask any of the managers and we'll be glad to help you out.
