I’ve been searching for a while now and can’t seem to find anything like what I would like to use. I found some stickers/decals very close to what I am looking for at this site, <http://islandstickers.com/pua/>

I also found a surf flower in a psd file in the style I’m looking for at this site: <http://www.opticnurve.com/nappmembers.aspx>

And the flower psd is here:
<http://www.opticnurve.com/downloads/napp/Week_16_Final.psd>

Does anyone know where I could find custom shapes like that? I haven’t found anything out there even close. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

P.S.
It all started when I saw this site <http://www.dbmedia.biz/> that has all these beautiful flower shapes on it’s graphics. And would love to use stuff like that for wallpapers and graphics.

Yeah… my son was heavily into shirts and what not after visiting Hawaii. He found a particular Company / Brand that he liked and they’ve been a wealth of plagaristic opportunity in this regard.

Mike,

Maybe you could take a photo of a hibiscus flower and make your own shape?

Thanks for the link Mike. I might hit the site up for some "inspiration". 🙂

I was hoping to save myself a lot of work by finding the shapes already made. thought maybe someone great custom shape artist would have made some already. I’m a tad lazy I guess. lol! I guess I could make my own shapes from some pictures of flowers… *gets a headache thinking of the work*

Yes, and if you are lazy 😉 look at this gorgeous action that speeds up the creation of vector shapes from a picture! Phosphor "Vectorize – A Quick Tutorial (by Mathias and Pierre)" 5/24/04 8:56am </cgi-bin/webx?50>

The best,if you use that action is to "pay it forward" : share your custom shapes on the adobeexchange!
If you do, please let me know: I’ll tell Mathias!
