Sports Scoreboard Request
Posted: 03 Nov 2009 09:00 PM |
Hay everyone, this is my first post, so i hope i do this right
I wanted to see if anyone could do me a favor...i wanted to see if i could get a scoreboard/banner like the old NFL on FOX had. Here's a couple examples

I wanted to see if it could be made into a title/overlay thing...
it doesn't need to have the time, quarter, or anything else, just a place for the team name and a place for a score
not sure if this'll help, but here's an image with just the banner

Hi. Welcome to the forum. You can make a title overlay of an image that is transparent.
You can get PapaJohn's sample title overlays at his site. But here is his code for one image for Vista. If you don't know how to install code, go here view post 2203 to learn how to put this code into your AddOnTFX folder. This is a title. The image to overlay, as you can see in the code, should be named 'Overlay1.png'.....and saved in .png format to keep it transparent. The image should be placed into the 'shared' folder...one level up from the 'addOntfx' folder. I made a transparent image with the banner at the top (the remainder of the image is erased..you can use the eraser tool in your image editor). When you click on the link and see the image, you can right click on it and save it to your desktop. Be sure its named 'Overlay1.png' and in .png format. Then move the image to the shared folder. From there you can open it up in your image editor (try paint.net if you don't have one that supports .png). Then you can use the brushes and text tools to change the names, scores, times etc. on the banner. When you open up Movie Maker, you will find 'PapaJohn Overlay 1' as a title, and it will put the image over your video on the timeline.
