  1. Looking for a seasoned designer in Virginia?

    Greetings all! My Wife is in the Army, as a Diver, and her duty station will be Fort Langley/Eustis. I'll be looking for work in the Yorktown area if anyone is looking for a top notch designer to join the team! :) Not sure where I should post this, but I figured General Chit Chat would...
  2. Resizing JPGs for large prints

    .Jpeg is a compressed image type, .Tiff retains more of the pixels and thus provides better results. When I size an image up in scale, either by inches or DPI, let's say it's 72 DPI, obviously it's going to be a terrible image if it's ALSO only 5 inches wide. If you size it ip to 150 DPI by...
  3. Resizing JPGs for large prints

    Don't resize in one big jump, Photoshop automatically adds a sharpen to the image with each resize. So sizing up 25 or so DPI at a time will result in a better image in the end. Also, saving as a .Tiff will also help your final image quality. :)

  6. Thoughts on this one...

  7. Thoughts on this one...

    Nice! I would alternate some bright yellow into the tagline and sub tagline to break up the text and improve readability just a tad. Another less ornate panel for the taglines might help draw more attention to the headline text too. Obviously, we don't have to tell you that it looks FABULOUS...

    A few more banners... Being a large project, I'll add more as the artwork progresses. :) I still have the info A-Frame panel design coming.
  11. A fun project, using Photoshop & Corel! Feedback?

    Thanks everyone! I'm still, even after so many years in the trade, taken aback by the outpouring of praise the Letterhead community is capable of. It's truly awe inspiring that so many kind folks, masters of the craft themselves, can find it in themselves to appreciate the work of their...
