  1. Free CorelDRAW Webinar - November 8 at 12pm(EST)

    It wasn't my best. I blame it on this cold I got. LOL I also have a hard time finding that sweet spot between stating the obvious and going over people's heads, since I know some people watching are new to this, and some people aren't. But hopefully it was a refresher course for some and others...
  2. Hey Colorado you have any openings?

    They make for great haunted houses. LOL
  3. Election Day (in the USA) Please vote!

    No kids at the polling place I voted at this morning. A bunch of really old people though. I was trying to be nice and courteous by letting a few in front of me because you know they are old, and that's what you should do.... But that probably wasn't the best idea since they needed the...
  4. Are you voting?

    I think people that don't put their shopping carts away at the super market and just leave them in the middle of the lot so the next gust of wind will send the cart flying into someone's car... shouldn't be allowed to vote. People who touch computer monitors with their fingers, when trying to...
  5. Are you voting?

    Wait a second... There is an election coming up?
  6. Dealing with a dry spell...

    That's a good point. If you absolutely have no choice but to cold call someone or when you door to door, a wise person once told me to call or stop in at a certain time in the morning. Just late enough for them to settle in, but before they get too involved with the day to day. Whatever you do...
  7. Dealing with a dry spell...

    Feast or Famine. In addition to what people are saying about choosing follow up calls over cold calls, I find it helps to take advantage of the extra time during the "famine" by also focusing inwards. When you're busy you never have time to work on your own business, to cleanup and organize...
  8. Free CorelDRAW Webinar - November 8 at 12pm(EST)

    I think so, but I'm not 100% sure. The one I did several months ago can be found here along with many other recorded webinars: http://www.corel.com/corel/pages/index.jsp?pgid=12800015 Also here is a tutorial I did a while back for Corel...
  9. Free CorelDRAW Webinar - November 8 at 12pm(EST)

    I thought I would give you guys a heads up. http://coreldraw.com/blogs/coreldraw/archive/2012/11/01/don-t-forget-this-webinar-about-creating-custom-lettering-effects-in-coreldraw-174.aspx Hope to see you there.
  10. Show your rides?

    This has been my mode of transportation lately. I've been walking everywhere if I can. I've lost about 15 lbs in the last few months and saved a bunch on gas. This coming spring I plan on selling my 07 mustang and getting this:
  11. Happy Halloween!

    What's your plans? Me? We're finishing up our haunted house season tonight. Obviously it's usually our biggest night. I run the evil clown maze in the haunted house. Here's a photo of me and my clown minions: I'm in the middle with the long arms. Baron Von Gigglesworth the Third.
  12. Dan inspired design

    If I could give you some advice not having to do with the design: you need to stop being so concerned about how good or bad other people's work is when they give you advice, and start considering the parts of their advice that makes sense and apply it to you're own work, regardless of their...
  13. Talk about Avery Film

    No it sounds like Oracal is doing right by their customers. So far anyway. Look I'm sure things get lost in translation on these forums. So I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, if you say you have "mixed feelings". But you sound like your doubtful of what some of us are...
  14. Talk about Avery Film

    Oh and the installer error is BS. At least it was back then when they attempted to use that excuse before. When it happened to us it was before repositional technology anyway. Material that worked fine once, and were being installed the exact same way years prior to these problems, all the...
  15. Talk about Avery Film

    It's the main issue for us. And it darn well should be. Isn't that enough? When we mess up, we don't leave our clients holding the bag. We make things right. We expect the same from our distributors, dealers, manufactures, etc... In this case it didn't just effect our relationship with...
  16. Why I didnt make it to sgia...

    Congrats!
  17. Joe's Steampunk Stella's at SGIA

    I can't take total credit for the wrap. Everything else with Stella on it, the beer labels, menus, shirts, business cards, etc..... is all me. Well the design part that is. However, in this one case, Roland had already used a wrap layout at a few shows before. Here it is pre-Stella...
  18. City Hall is going to LOVE you...

    I'm actually a part of what is called the design committee for our town. We are made up of a few contractors, an awning guy, the head of zoning, the head of the local main street program, and some local downtown business owners. We have no actual voting power but we do make recommendations to...
  19. Arbys new logo

    Von Glitschka did a Wendy's logo a while back that I liked better than this one, although I don't hate this one... I went to track his down but it's since been removed from his site. hmmm...
