thanks

chech all the connections of the screen

if you have the screen connected to car battery, this maybe the problem

my screen also refused to work, and i sent it to repair, now that is connected to pc power supply there are no more problems

Weird - I had a screen like that as well and had loads of problems. In the end I sent it back to the US and gave up! It was connected to the car power. I wonder if that was the problem all along!!

How much are they these days?

I had problems with the screen connected to car battery

after repairing it, i've connected to PC power supply, and no more problems

what did you have to repair? and what problems did you find?

I went to a techincian, and he changed a pair of condensers and some other components to the screen "mainboard"

the only problem that i have now is that if you turn off the screen (in its on/off key), it turns to white (if you stop the "feeding", it turns to black)

but, no problem, because i've welded an interruptor to full turn out the screen

sorry for my english

Let's see more pics:

PERSONALISED WINDOWS BOOT IMAGE

After lots of searching, finally I found a pic of "Fabia" logo to edit, and make the word"fabiaputer"

After editing it with Macromedia Freehand, Paint Shop Pro (I don't Photoshop), Intergraph Smart Sketch (to make "puter"), and again PSP, the image was ready to install with Tune Up Utilites 2008

Vector image of "fabia" (found in the web):

Fabia.gif

Edited logo ready to paste into a image:

Edited image (16colour image, 640x480) ready to install:

"putter" letters are made by me

I am doing a complete alphabet with the Fabia letter style

do you know a program to make font files???

I've only ever used Fontographer by FontLab. Not sure if there are any free ones available?

I looked into making one, but the amount of missing letters there are put me off. Plus the new Fabia has new lettering, so I assume the new range will take that on now?

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

(all the bold letters have a shape - from FABIA OCTAVIA and SUPERB (does the Felica use this typeface?) - the rest would need to be constructed from scratch. The em & en spaced letters would be the most difficult to get right. Kerning would be pretty easy and leading is a bit moot on a title font)

Maybe I'm just looking at it from a perfectionist point of view, this is partly what I did at Uni; it'd annoy me if it wasn't spot on.

the Felicia, and the Laura (Octavia in some countries) also used this typeface

I've maked C ,D ,E, H, I, R, S, T, U, X and Y

if you want, we can make an alphabet together, and make a font file

I'm using Intergraph Smart Sketch to make the letters from scratches
