  6. Am I the crazy one?

    A door graphic is a very small job but out habit I design this way. Every job is designed this way... kinda how I was taught I suppose. The extra few minutes is covered in the cost. I don't have the estimate for these doors, but it's in the $150-175 each, plus install. Gino kind of alluded...
  7. What's in store for 2014... NO RESOLUTIONS

    This year was not a bad year if you don't count quitting a very well paying job and losing a bonus of a lifetime. During the shock of quitting, Gigi allowed me to come over and co-work. Except for a few car accidents, cancer scare, 2 stolen laptops and iPad, a super expensive speeding...
  8. Am I the crazy one?

    Finally got to my desk... I'll just address those who can benefit from this... (Gigi said I have to play nice) This is how it's done in our studio... even a girl can do it! (boy am I gonna get it) Not saying everyone should do it this way. I think when dealing with muggles (non-design...
  9. Am I the crazy one?

    This is where your lack of knowledge is showing... If it's to an architectural scale... either in Corel or Illustrator with CADTools. You can add the EXACT measurements in seconds using the scale tools in either program.
  10. Am I the crazy one?

    Ummm, take is easy man... Though I agree in principle that it needs some measurement. If the door in the drawing represents the door on the property it's adequate for some chump $50.00 job for MOST clients. It's the occasional client that can't "visualize" the copy and either need some...
  11. Am I the crazy one?

    On every layout, It's done to a scale so they can check it themselves, I have a door similar to yours, then add a scale person and the lettering size called out. I think it's a matter of... Will you get more work from these people? Then, stop charging them such a low price unless it's to...
  12. What do you study?

    Most of this stuff is what I've answered before, but I stil' read and peruse through all this from times to time... Reading an hour a day is not going to hurt, but it has to be something that applies to this business. I read more than an hour a day. I'm not self taught, went to school and...

    There are signs where life/safety and freedoms are effected. ADAAG/ADA Fire Safety (In California it's Title 19) Health and Safety Signs for pools, safety and resuscitation In California we have Prop 65 for cancer causing agents -- The codes and regulations covering that is enough where...
  14. looking for designer

    Being a freelancer... While I tend to agree with Gino that the wheel can only be reinvented so many times. In my experience, creative block usually has little to do with making up something but the distractions or boredom of siting in a desk for hours on end. I have a massive book...
  15. Prostitution Legal in Canada???

    I'm having a mental image of Ol'Paint porkin' Canadian girls... mental image go away.. GO AWAY!!!!
  16. You thought you got ripped off?

    I guess he removed his index page and now there is a splash page... you can still get to the other stuff, just nothing is linked on the homepage. A small triumph! http://www.ultimatewrapsfl.com/

    It is not, but the designer who designed the bogus site is an "elance" designer from India I believe...
  20. Averege $/hr for wrapper in the US

    I don't think it's just the area, but what a person is charging and willing/able to spend. I worked for, at the time, the largest wrap company in Southern California. The main installer made 52k... and this was in 1996. I freelance for 2 companies that do wraps, one will pay 11-15 in...
