Hey, I'm trying to find clip art so I can try to make some business stationary or letterhead for my husbands new side business. The name of his business is a play on words that makes you think of Rock and Roll. I came across a photo online of a guy doing the hand extended with the two fingers up that people tend to do at Rock concerts. Does anyone know where I might find some clip art like that?

I just wanted to play around with it and see if I could make anything interesting out of that.

You probably won't want to use my version (from the Opposites challenge). It's an easy enough pose; just get someone to put their hand in front of a contrasting solid-color background for easy editing and make your own.

I tried a google search for "devil horns" (assuming that's what you meant, but no relevant clip art images.

Can't you take a photo and play with some of the "art" filters in PS?

If you mean that hand signal, look for shots from a University of Texas football game.

Yeah, my husband would probably prefer your shot, however, I'm the sane one that has to set him straight on what might offend his customers, lol.

I think I will try that. It was a spur of the moment thing I decided I wanted to try to use for his stationary so I could give him some things to choose from. He's giving me more responsibility with his new business (not that I asked for it) so I thought I'd order some pre-printed envelopes or print some labels rather than adding the return address in word all the time. I'm just being lazy, lol.

I'm not sure what they call those "fingers" but devil horns sounds appropriate. I just know that I made the mistake of buying my husband tickets to see Metallica then had to accompany him and when the people in the front row weren't slamming into me and others they were doing those "fingers", lol.

Thanks for the ideas!

I'm trying to convey more the idea of Rock and Roll and less of the F.U.

Well, I said in the beginning that this wasn't the suitable image ... : )

Besides I had both of the symbols wrong for what you wanted ... I haven't been at any rock concerts where the "Hook 'em 'Horns" signal was used.
