Will X5 run any faster on windows 7? Another day of Corel crashes for me.

This is what I use. It's free and works well. http://www.irfanview.com/

Whatever you decide, or in some cases, whatever your local municipality decides. We always tried to obtain the permits as part of our services. But it became so difficult dealing with the little town we were in, we started to charge for it and give the customer the option of dealing with it...

that was my fear. After another frustrating morning of Corel crashes, I think I'm ready to bite the bullet and upgrade to windows 7.

I really do love letterhead fonts and I have no personal beef with them. I know that many get fired up though with this subject came up, maybe I was just stirring the pot a bit. Slap me on the wrist. :) I'll check out Mike's new font. I'm a fan of his work as well.

Yeah, these are great. Hope A & S can give Letterhead fonts a run for their money. Oops, did I say that out loud?

I wish that was true. The flower pot was partially clipart, I added the face. The pig is 100% clipart, I'm ashamed to say.

Cool...and what is the 'Enable Compression' option?

Just tried to find the live text option, do you remember where it is? Also, in searching for that, I found an option for memory usage. It looks like this places a cap on your RAM usage. Mines currently set at 25% (I have 3 gigs). I'm assuming that's the factory setting. Should I change that?

Just a few things I've done in recent weeks...

Same problems here. I'm not sure it's Corel though, I'm thinking its Vista. I've just learned to save CONSTANTLY since it crashes so much

Wowee! I've been waiting for more fonts...Can't wait to get them!

the right is my favorite.

Nice looking logo Joe! This is a good example of a logo for Newbies. It shows how a good logo will look good in just black and white. The reason it looks so good is it's balanced, has good contrast, the line weight is uniform and it just flows well overall. Sweet job.

Ok, first of all, this is a very poor execution of the idea. Needs LOTS of work. But what about using the 'i' from 'Impressive' and making it look like the stem is a pedestal supporting the dot? Like it's displaying the dot? Maybe that makes no sense at all. :)

Really, really nice looking sign. Simple and clean.

Nice! Really nice...This has been long overdue. It seems that others in the industry have produced pretty much the same thing, but then turned around and sold it for $10,000...Thanks for doing this.

Then you could afford to hire him! ;)

Yep, I agree with Rick 100%. This is an area of design I'm wanting to break into. I bought the book a couple months ago. It's packed full of great info for anyone wanting to get into electrical sign design. The price is nothing. The knowledge you get for a measly $140 is priceless. And like the...

Ok, here's some specifics. Again, I'm not trying to bash you at all. You're well on your way and the fact that you're asking for advice and taking it says alot about your determination. And I really like the looks of the blanks. I think there could be a market for those. :)
