What she said. I would even go far as saying that it's bad for our industry and our clients when we give novices the tools to design their own signs. A customer may think they saved money by designing their own sign, but any poorly designed advertisement can actually cost that customer money...

Thanks, but it certainly wasn't just me. My dad and brother with the help of Eric Elmgren from ParkRidge, IL helped bring this thing to life. My brother is actually becoming a really good painter and did the guitar in middle pretty much on his own. He's even starting to pick up pinstripping.

The Les Paul Foundation wouldn't allow us to use his face. But the guitar on the left hand side is actually the first solid body guitar that he invented. I personally think him inventing multi-track recording is probably his single biggest contribution to the music industry, but since this...

This is what we worked on last weekend. It took 4 of us about 2 1/2 days to paint it. It probably would have only taken 2 had we not had to build our visqueen tent to keep us dry. We used Nova Color paints and cleared it with PrimeCoatings Clear. Here's more photos...

Looks great!

Thanks everyone. This video was filmed about 2 years ago, but I still remember the experience like it was yesterday. I have the link to it on our website and also on my email signature. I think our customers, or potential customers enjoy seeing it since I've had several comment on it. So...

Turned out great.

Yes. I wouldn't say it's a problem of us not being good salesmen, it's just a trend that isn't as popular in our neck of the woods.

Nicely done. Wish we could get people in our area to invest in wrap jobs like these. I design more wraps for other companies to install then we actually sell here. LOL I feel like if there were just a few more service like companies in our area that would invest in wraps, it would create a...

You can use those steps for a bunch of different things too. Here's a small snippet of a really detailed piece I'm working on now. This is only the bottom left corner of it. It's not quite done yet. The brick texture on the buildings and bridge were done that same way.

Thanks, I actually do make tutorials for Corel. I just finished one up for them that's a step by step sign tutorial. It should be published some time next month. Corel still needs to proofread, and publish it,then translate it to other languages. You can find a few of my tutorials and recorded...

Good! Glad to hear it. Yeah the process I spelled out has several extra steps, but those extra steps are meant for fine tuning things. For example, instead of using the "image adjustment lab" you could just select your image, go to Bitmaps -> Convert to Bitmap, then select Black and White...

I track down a photo of peeling paint, maybe a photo of an old barn's siding. I import that photo into CorelDRAW. Select the photo and go to Bitmaps -> Image Adjustment Lab. In the Image Adjustment Lab I take the saturation all the way down. Then crank the contrast all the way up. Then...

Last word.

What I really want to know is: who can urinate farther, longer and with better accuracy?

Does the surface pro have pressure sensitivity? Because recently CorelDRAW has added a pressure sensitive artistic media tool that freaken rocks for doing illustration work. I've been using it on my cintq but it would be nice to have a mobile version.

It looks like it depends on the version, and there are some limitations depending on what country you are in (?) The advice given is to check the EULA of the version you have or want. This is from the Senior Director, Product Management at Corel. "As a general rule, a box or download version...

Don't worry. Last I heard it was: 3 installations of one licensed copy are allowed with a limitation to use one at a time. Not sure if that has changed though. Let me look into it for you.
