Default Top Gear Season folder

As many of us do I have the TG collection with all 10 seasons. Now I want to take the TG logo and add a season number to it so i can use thumbnails for the seasons. However I am a total moron when it comes to photo editing and my best work can be seen here:

That's about as lame as they come, I wanted to use a font that somewhat reminds the TG logo font but I have no idea where to get one and also i want the thumbnail to show the picture in full and not just in the middle of the folder like this :

Any help with this will be great images/smilies/smile.gif

Well tried my best and this is what I came up with images/smilies/biggrin.gif Not much but it'll do the job.

Crucify me later for calling them Seasons and not Series but I'm just used to it.

Hi, I've been experimenting with the TG font lately, and here's what I've come up with:

This particular font is HelveticaNeue ExtBlackCond, which I found on the web (if you want more details pm me)
