    wow, that is one horrid font. my guess would be a free site like dafonts and look thru the script (?) styles to see if you can find it

    sure some ask all the time but who cares? I like reading the posts to see if I know it by sight as it helps keep my ablities to ID a font sharp. do I ask from time to time? I sure do as there are tons of fonts out there and after running it thru everything on my own, I ask here as it is a...

  14. shiny mirror chrome silver exterir vinyl?

    did a search for this as I thought I remembered someone else asking this but it wasn't what I needed.

    I tell them the truth that I can get them a better price as my sources buy materials in bulk where we can't. they get it and since I am the one who proofs everyting they trust that all will be OK. it's not a big deal to be honest as long as they see there is something in what you do that...

    this clears it up. I like the last line that says in a nutshell it is like the difference between a song and an album. "Does It Even Matter Anymore? Even among type professionals, there's a growing acceptance that for most people, the terms font and typeface can be used...
  19. How should I hang this sign?

    why not? can't you get an obstruction permit? if you can, then rent a lift and install. what did they have hanging off that pole? the same size and weight? has the sign been made yet? why 1" sintra? that makes it super heavy, why not another material
