  1. My new Logo/Company name

    I appreciate it. I'm not trying to be defensive. I know he's not talking about me, but it doesn't change the fact that I disagree that other's who participate often are only doing so for attention, and you cannot go around assuming everyone is and treating them like garbage if you don't really...
  2. My new Logo/Company name

    You know I was thinking. I know, watch out! right? I'm curious though. This comment struck my as being pretty funny: These really talented people that do NOT post their work here... How do you know they are really talented? If they don't post their work how have you seen it to know if...
  3. My new Logo/Company name

    No offense taken at all. Why would I be offended by your comments? I don't post my work here every couple days so I know you weren't speaking to me directly. I probably post a design or two a month anymore. Some times a little more sometimes less depending on the month. Not that I really need...
  4. My new Logo/Company name

    This comment makes it sound as though you believe that people that post their sign projects or designs often do so because they have something to "prove" and are looking for "pats on the back" from the "peanut gallery". They are saying "look at me... look at me..." "I'm good and this proves...
  5. My new Logo/Company name

    So what you're saying is if someone is posting work regularly they are really saying "look at me! look at me!"? What about those who post comments 9 times a day on average? Aren't they also saying "look at me! look at me!"? I guess maybe folks shouldn't contribute here. I'm sure they would...
  6. My new Logo/Company name

    Now I know you have no clue what you are talking about. That or you are just a troll. Wrong! not a Corel user.:Big Laugh but an amazing adobe illustrator designer and a hell of a nice guy. simple vector shapes? The guy does amazing work and he uses CorelDRAW.
  7. My new Logo/Company name

    I'll tell you what, instead of making a list for you of folks using something besides the "industry standard" or who are in the sign industry or have started out in the sign industry, I think you should do yourself a favor and head on out to the next sign meet, panel jam, Letterhead or Walldog...
  8. My new Logo/Company name

    Then you must either be new to the sign industry or haven't even come close to meeting some of the folks I know. There are a bunch of sign makers I know that can create outstanding brands. You seriously underestimate your fellow sign makers. It's a big world we live in and there's a bunch of...
  9. My new Logo/Company name

    I've had this theory/observation for years, and it's something I know I CAN say out loud: Folks that are too focused on what tools other's use, then form some sort of ridiculous conclusion based on the tool set rather than the final product, cannot see the forest for the trees.
  10. 2 logo ideas. Need help with direction

    I think new-school works better with newer technology. If you were providing hand painted services instead of wraps, old-school would be the way to go.
  11. It's okay to not make every change to a design that others suggest.

    I had a client stop in with a huge list of suggested changes that his family and friends suggested we make to his design. Most of it was color changes, you know stuff involving personal preferences. Some of the changes weren't possible or conflicted with another change that someone suggested...
  12. My new Logo/Company name

    Why limit yourself to northern ca? It's a brave new world. One day you could or may want to seek clients outside that area. One of those "City Slickers" could end up being one of your best clients ever. I'm sure you will be fine either way, just adding my 2 cents... for what it's worth.
  13. My new Logo/Company name

    I was always told to avoid talking politics and religion with customers. You plan on naming your business after a political topic. You have to ask yourself, is getting your political opinion out there as important as attracting as many clients as you can? Like most topics similar to the one...
  14. How to be a Successful Sign Shop

    Maybe I'm taking this post the wrong way, maybe it was worded the wrong way. I don't know. If I am or if it is, then I apologize in advance. I'm friends with some sign makers close-by (or anyone for that mater) because they are good people, we share a lot in common and I enjoy their company...
  15. Quilter's logo

    I beefed up the Q tail a bit. (that sounded like a lyric from a Beck song:Big Laugh ♪ ♫ beefin up the Q tail...) Neither, They sell products to quilters.
  16. Quilter's logo

    Yup my brother mentioned that too. Looks like I'll have to beef it up when I get back to the shop in the morning. Thanks! I think not having it cut off at the drop shadow well help also.

    This is the one color version:
  18. What is the goofiest thing a customer has said to/requested of you?

    We had a guy stop in a couple weeks ago, I kid you not, and thought that we had his company's sign pre-made waiting in the back somewhere. He didn't order it weeks ago ans was just now coming in to pick it up, this was the first time we had contact with him. I was nice, deep down inside I was...
  19. tell us about your side/fun projects

    I'm in a musical next month. It's called: 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. A few friends and I were working on a web series. And my brother and I are making a video game we hope to sell in the app stores. Well it's mostly me working on it now, hes got kids that keep him pretty occupied...
