  1. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    Depends on the customer I guess. If it's someone who will understand that time is money and not be upset with the fact that you really should charge them to do the work needed to create and send the files, then tell them you need to charge them for your time and charge them. If it's someone...
  2. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    We discus that up front as well. When selling design we point out that if they don't want to pay for a logo and all that comes with it, but decide at a later date they do want to use their sign or vehicle graphics as a logo, there is a fee for doing that. That fee plus the initial amount they...
  3. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    What ever you decide for this particular case, you should consider changing the way you sell design (up front) so that this doesn't become a recurring issue in the future. When people want design work done for their sign, vehicle lettering, ect, we give them a couple options: Pay for a design...
  4. Post "YOUR" business logo

    I like this. Good use of negative space.
  5. Post "YOUR" business logo

    Here is ours. It can be oriented with the icon to the left of the copy for wider/shorter formats. The icon isn't always that large, depending on the application. Sometimes we might use only the icon, like on baseball hats for example. We have no specific company colors so this design will...
  6. Personal project for me!

    Looks great. She needs some smaltz.:thumb:
  7. Knowing what you know now...

    I've always looked at it a different way. I don't think we focus too much on doing certain types of jobs, but instead focus on winning over certain types of clients. The goal is to attract good clients that will keep coming back for more work. Someone on this forum gave me a hard time for...
  8. Impending death of script fonts?

    I think at worst, many many years from now (but maybe still within my life time) cursive writing might go the way of roman numerals. It will be something still taught in school, but maybe not in earlier grades, and it definitely won't be an essential subject. It's not like it's a difficult...
  9. This logo working?

    I like the J L without the grass effect. I feel as though the main copy doesn't play well with the J L icon either.
  10. Corel plotting signs short?

    Just saw this. Have you tried sending the file to your plotter from DRAW without using CoCut? That's what we mean by plotting directly from DRAW. Also if you seek out support, you may have better luck with your plotter manufacture rather than Corel. Not that Corel support is bad, but the...
  11. Corel plotting signs short?

    A few years back when we updated to Windows Vista from XP, Graphtec hadn't yet released a Vista friendly driver for the plotter we had. So we could no longer plot directly from DRAW. However for some reason it would recognize that particular plotter from CoCut, so we used that for a while. Now...
  12. Corel plotting signs short?

    We also cut directly from DRAW, however we have had good luck with cocut in the past. That being said I'm not sure you can cut directly from DRAW to all plotters. I do know it's important to have the right drivers. You essentially treat the the art like you would if you were printing it...
  13. What do I do?!

    I wouldn't worry too much. I have found that people like this tend to act the same way she is acting towards you with other people too. If she acts this way with other people, I'm betting those people have her number by now and take her complaints with a grain of salt. As long as you keep...
  14. If this was happening to any other software.................

    Oh you would be surprised. I think the sky is the limit. There is a thread on CorelDraw's forum where members post ideas and suggestions for future features. Some of the features people are asking for are really cool ideas. But a bunch of these ideas are stuff that I never even considered...
  15. Who Is Using PVC, And...

    What is odd is the stuff that contractors get as an alternative for wood is a higher density PVC than the stuff we get. The stuff those guys use are used outdoors with no issues that I've ever heard of. Some of the stuff you get from sign distributors aren't as dense. However we have had luck...
  16. What do I do?!

    You are freakin insane. Rattled? If anything this is demonstrating my point. You can't sit down and reason with crazy. But trust me I'm not losing sleep over one of your many, many, many, many, many tantrums here on this forum. Did you ever stop and wonder why you get into it with so many...
  17. What do I do?!

    Oh I'm sorry I thought this was a conversation about the topic at hand not everything else that is rattling around in your head. And you started all the personal crap. I simply started the thread out stating that I disagree with those who suggested he sat down with her and possibly make a deal...
  18. What do I do?!

    Earth to Gino, She's not his C U S T O M E R. Also about our legal experiences, apparently, the main difference between you and us is that we have less experience going to court because we know how to avoid getting into a position where we need to go. Going to court to get paid is one thing...
  19. What do I do?!

    :banghead: deadbeat? Ohhh I don't know I would think trying to play lawyer yourself when you don't have the credentials or the know how to practice law, is "stoopid" as you put it. Going to small claims and trying to get paid is one thing, but If someone threatens to sue you over something...
  20. What do I do?!

    Can I use this in my signature? :Big Laugh
