Need help with chuck graphics.

[xRIPCITYx]

So i'm getting close to ordering a chuck. I have a good idea what i would like the graphics to be like, but don't have much experience with photoshop or anything like that. If someone could help it would be greatly appreciated. As far as colors go red and black because those are the trailblazers colors.
I know for sure that I want a trailblazers logo on it either like my avatar or like this:

On the otherside going lengthwise I want the text: ripcity
Not sure how it would look but it might be cool if it could be the font from their jerseys like this:

So whats wrong with that? It looks great tell them thats what you want on it.

Oh cool i thought we had to know the exact size we wanted everything. I wasn't sure if he would just do all that himself or not.

The wonderful people in the forum who will make the mock-up for you will fix the sizes.

Are you getting a big Chuck (2.8" around, 4.5" tall) or a Little Chuck (2.8" x 3")?

Definitely a Big Chuck.

I don't know how it would work with red and black text with a red or black background. You wouldn't be able to see either rip or city. Maybe the background could be half black half red also just opposite the text?

Here's a possible layout (note I did it with 2 different background texture colors - otherwise they're the same):

Re-looking at the finished images I think the basketball texture probably should've been a little bigger as it's hard to see.

Wow thats really cool! I love the basketball texture that was a great idea. When I order do i just attach that picture to my email?

Just give him the mock-up image, the wrap image (attached below), and tell him about any changes you want made from those images. If he needs/wants the Photoshop PSD file I can send it to him (it's too large to post at ~10MB).

Wrap images below (don't send him both as that'll just confuse the matter, pick which grey color you'd prefer and send that one):
