Thanks, They told me they do that to show off the cut capabilities of their printers. The letters are separate too and printed with metallic inks. So I had to send separate files for each "layer" along with the cut contour.

Print (and contour cut) the whole thing. For us... the labor to do it as half print. half 2 color vinyl would end up eating up any savings by using cut vinyl. Just doing it all print, should cost less, I guess it depends on what your labor is though.

I'm still waiting for some better photos. If you want to see some more detail, here's a higher resolution sketch of the artwork. http://diazsignart.com/client_jobs/armored_gaming_wrap_sketch.jpg

Here's our latest wrap design. If you're in Vegas this week, hopefully you saw it:

I have seen a few letterhead fonts being used. LOL

Any gamers out there? Have you played Bioshock Infinite yet? I've been excited about this one for a while now, and so far it doesn't disappoint. I'm not sure how far I am in the game (so don't spoil it for anyone if you have finished the game) but the artwork is amazing. AND it's fun to play...

Not sure, but I think copyright would be the least of your customer's worries. Those "logos" are horrible. I'd spend less time trying to figure out if he can copyright those train wrecks and more time trying to talk them into professorially designed logos.

That all makes sense, but consider this: Since you don't do business locally if you can save a few bucks out of town, your local hardware store decides to do the same. They decide that if you don't do business with them, they don't need to do business with you. They decide to get their signs...

I try to buy as much locally as I can, why, because it's good for our local economy and it's good business. These people buy from us, so it's only fair to return the favor, even if I can get a better deal elsewhere. However, our hometown isn't that large, and can't support every single type of...

I can't tell if it's an act or not. The idea of it doesn't sound bad at all, just not sure if I'd eat what he's cooking.

Yeah I tried it every which way. It would block the A. Having it in front of the "O" was the lesser of evils, because it still reads as an "O" better than any of the other letters when they are partially covered. (in my opinion anyway) SO, I'll try what Gino suggested, just shrink it a bit...

The whole thing has been about giving them what they really want, even if it's just symbolic, but at the same time creating something that will appeal to everyone else, since the sentimental things to this family isn't really important to their customer. I'm hoping the silliness of it will...

Yeah, I think I will try to shrink that cone a bit. I tired shrinking the entire head, but it didn't look as good, and however I rotated it, it made it harder to read. So making the cone shorter will probably be the best solution. I'm okay with the red being a focal point, having that part be...

So a very good client, so good that they have actually became good family friends over the years, came in to get some work done. They are always grateful, they never complain about price (other than we didn't charge them enough). You know, the perfect customer... Except one thing.... When...

Nah, she does, they're just laser eyes. :omg:

Those dogs all look better behaved than mine:

Boom! I too like her idea of a gorilla in beret. I can picture the tattoo artist... If they're any good that is... designing their own scroll work to go around a panel design like this. That would be pretty cool.

Not "bashing" but that's because no one in your area values design, including the shops doing it. The shops in your area have created that market. Your customers aren't going to just start valuing a certain service you offer on their own. You have to work for it. You have to sell it. You...

Another vote for no sketch or design without a deposit. This does a few things: A. It compensates you a little for the time and effort you are going to put into their project. So if they do end up using someone else, and if you have a hard time collecting payment for your work and ideas, at...

yeah I would think pro is right. I haven't worked with Chrome wrap but have used the regular chrome hp vinyl and it scratches easily.
