Haha, yeah didn't cost us a penny either. Actually it might have costs us some tax dollars. I'm not sure where the funds came from to air this. Oh well, I hope it generates some more tourism.

I'm right there with you. Although, the spiked party drinks that sneak up on you didn't help.

This commercial aired during the Super Bowl, last night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFHrmcGA9Ek&feature=share Check out the mural @ 0:13. That's good advertisement for our small town.

So how exactly would a co-op work? Right now our company uses different distributors, because not one distributor carries everything we need, and some have better prices for certain things etc. My point is, we are a special snowflake and have special needs. LOL. Sign Shop A might want...

Maybe, however this very thread and Feller's response is evidence that we didn't really lay down and take it. Their customers made their voices heard and they took that part of the site down.

I don't know if you guys have noticed or not. But Player and Nishanare essentially demonstrating what some sign people fear could happen if our distributors sold direct to our our clients in a way so that distributors might relate. Whether it's makes financial sense or not, A sign maker wanting...

Well I'm glad they saw the light. I cannot believe that it was an accident though. Even on their website the apology says "Though we had good intentions with the launch to speed up shopping and eliminate hurdles" This leads me to believe that this was purposefully done, and I'm having a...

LOL That makes sense, because clearly PR is not his forte.

:banghead:

I agree.

Yeah but you have to wonder would they have 40 or 50 million in sales this year if they had a better brand?

What is a logo? THAT is a good discussion in and of itself. The way we define it here at our shop so that our clients can understand, is if we design something for a one time use... for just that one application, it's a design or layout. If we are creating something that will be used on signs...

Watch me. We did one for a Mexican restaurant. To be fair, we weren't 100% sure if it was a Mexican restaurant at first. So maybe this doesn't count as "proper branding" Because I firmly believe that properly branding a business can do nothing but help. In this case though, The client had a...

There are several reasons. One of those many reasons may be your market. I know that many (not all) small town, rural, midwest small business won't pay $3000 for a logo. A large corporation in California may pay multiple times that amount, easy. The nice thing about today's day and age is a...

A logo doesn't really effect the service of the business it belongs to, but it does say a lot about the business. A business that has invested in a well designed image is likely to show the same amount of care towards other aspects of their business. And whether you like it or not, people...

Here's our logo and an illustration we recently started using for various things.

LOL yeah he does that. But to be fair, now that we are starting to get more and more tourists that don't speak English in this little town of ours, I've caught myself doing it too. Sometimes it's hard not to. You want them to understand you so you speak slowly and e-nun-ci-ate every word that...

http://tv.sohu.com/20131029/n389157655.shtml?pvid=8e09672c86e4181e&ptag=vsogou So we had a Chinese Reality Show episode filmed in Pontiac (my hometown) last summer. I have no clue what they are saying though. LOL Hopefully good things. The one guy is a Chinese Movie Star. Xuebing Wang. One...

So. That is beside the point. If in this case a person is simply receiving files from the person that designed them, then that person isn't acting as a "graphic designer" there job is to print or produce the graphic. The graphic designer's job is to send print ready files. Or at the very least...
