  1. Discussion What's the most common design mistake you see made in sign design?

    I think the community here is very old school and prefer to jot down the number instead. We still have some that just don't do text or email proofs and would rather come in person. I can only think a handful where the customer didn't want the phone number to be huge but I can see why if that is...
  2. Design Ownership **Rant**

    We offer a custom logo package to customers upfront. It helps with dealing with headaches down the road but once in a while we'll get somebody from years ago now wanting the design files for free.

  7. Two Fonts That Need Identifying

    A customer wants to recreate their old banner using the same fonts (the numbers and Principles) but I had no luck after looking around. I really appreciate it if I can get some help.
  8. How to correctly maintain UV printer?

    Mimaki user here. I do daily maintenance and clean the ink off the capping station edges and wiper at the end of the day. Don't use cotton swabs because you don't that stuff getting stuck in your machine. I use foam tip swabs. At the end of the week I will clean around the print head but not on...
  9. One Name - 1000 different logos

    Looks like something I would see on an old local punk/metal shirt. Just need a little bit of blood and the smell of someone who hasn't showered in days.
  10. Discussion What's the most common design mistake you see made in sign design?

    We charge design/set up time if I have to go in there and start fixing a file. Sometimes its a quick 5 mins, sometimes it can be 30 minutes. We tell our customers up front that if they are having a designer making the file they need to follow the guidelines. We do hand them cards that has...
  11. Discussion What's the most common design mistake you see made in sign design?

    For awhile the Bleeding Cowboy font followed me everywhere. I cracked up and felt a little jealous when I went to eat at the Cabo Wabo Cantina in Las Vegas a few years ago. I saw their logo was just Bleeding Cowboy with very little or no adjustments to it. I bet that graphic designer made some...
  12. Discussion What's the most common design mistake you see made in sign design?

    I don't know that alligator sounds pretty amazing to me. ;) We had a customer that wanted his business logo and contact info all in black vinyl but his truck was black....We suggested other colors but nope he said he wanted it to blend in. His excuse was that he wanted to be able to drink and...
  13. Maybe real business advice

    I noticed we had an increase of text orders since we implement that. I think many of our clients just prefer to do that instead of them having to call or email. It makes it easier for us since we just copy the specifications and look back to the messages in case there is any details we may have...
  14. Can't Figure Out This Truck Font

    Thanks so much! You saved me some headaches!
  15. Can't Figure Out This Truck Font

    I just found out they also want this font as well. I found a font somewhat like it but I might as well see if you experts can figure this one out as well! :)
  16. Can't Figure Out This Truck Font

    I' swear I've seen this font many times before but I can't figure out what it is called! My usual go to for identifying fonts didn't bring up any close results. Can someone help me out on this one?
  17. Need Help wandering on this font

    Looks like a modified version of Segoe Script Bold.
  18. Question Never did this before..................

    We've contour cut on window perf couple times for our front door and never had an issue with it. It was on the door for years and was only replaced because we updated our information.
  19. FONT ID HELP THANK YOU !!

    It looks like Euro Technic Extended Bold Edit: Actually I'm wrong. The P and R in yours have smaller apertures in them.
  20. Is Mimaki Better Than Roland?

    We use Mimaki here but at one point we got a Mutoh when our first Mimaki printer broke down. I think we were sold a dud because right out of the box we had many unsolved issues. Tech couldn't fix it and it was a major head ache. I would like to think they are not all like this but it was a...
