  1. My company website, what do you guys think?

    Your design is all over the place. Needs more consistency. Too many colours, too many fonts, margins and whitespace are unbalanced.
  2. Children, dust, flies and swine

    This is really cool. Nice find!
  3. In Stock Vinyl vs. Ordering

    We avoid these jobs by simply pricing them accurately. It does take $150 sometimes to make one "simple" little sign. Explain why, and if the price is too high, move on to the next customer. I find that the more we "pass" on little jobs, the more big jobs we have time for.
  4. Hockey puck printing

    Not to mention there may be a difference in friction on the ice with the laminated side versus the rubber side.
  5. Drum Roll, Please.... My New Logo, Thanks to Sign Amigo

    So it would still be handpainted after routing. I can't wait to see it! Also, I do agree with the comments about the tagline and "Signs & Design". They don't fit at all. The tagline is probably fine besides needing a font replacement, but "Signs & Design" probably should be worked into the logo...
  6. What colors of exposed sign holding hardware would be usefull?

    I think we need to see these sign frames to understand what you mean. I don't think it's economical, most of the time, for a manufacturer to offer sign frames in a variety of colours. Usually it's just "any colour you want as long as it's silver".
  7. Drum Roll, Please.... My New Logo, Thanks to Sign Amigo

    Love it! Post a picture of your sign when it's done. Handpainted, I presume?
  8. 1-500 sequential numbering - how to?

    Versaworks has auto numbering built in as well. I've only used it once but it was surprisingly easy to figure out and it can read from a spreadsheet, so it doesn't have to be sequential.
  9. Nissan NV - What do you use as a baseline?

    Measure it to be parallel with the lines on the vehicle, or eyeball it somewhere in between the lines if the vehicle has too many angles. That's the best you can do I think - maybe tape it up on the vehicle and confirm with the customer before they leave you to it. I don't see how the ground...
  10. one last shot lol

    Quit using all those crappy effects. They're not crap when you use them properly, but you can't put a shadow on one thing, a gradient on another, and an outline on another, all in the same logo.
  11. Kustom Koach

    Now you just have to figure out what combination of 4 different hideous Photoshop effects they used to make it "POP".
  12. Missing thread....................

    Jeez, I hope you guys are kidding. I'm not even American and I know that your free speech amendment applies only to government, not message boards on the internet.
  13. what the fon......

    Maybe trying browsing for it on Dafont. Looks like it may have come from there.
  14. Ink & longevity?

    What's the advantage with Caldera? We run Versaworks here and we can calibrate the ink limits in each media profile as well as see an estimate of ink usage on each job. I would have thought that theoretically, if two different RIPs are both profiled properly for the media you're using, they...
  15. ^&%w%^***%$#&! Please help! Xc540

    You must not be much of a cheater. That's not even close.
  16. Quilter's logo

    Looks great! I love the alternate versions. Why did you add bridges to the metal sign? (or break up the pieces, depending how you interpret it)
  17. Font id please

    Aha! I knew this one would be on Google Fonts. https://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Titillium+Web
  18. What's Your Method For Printing Banners With A White Background?

    We print a 7/8" thick light grey border that goes to the edge of the bleed. This gives us an easy line to follow for trimming and for 1" hemming. We also print marks for the grommets.
  19. MWCoA

    Which one? There's two.
  20. new logo... after some hard thinking and a little advice ;)

    The problem is that you don't know ANY of the rules of design and you're breaking all of them. Giving you tips and little changes here and there is not enough to teach you what you need to learn, especially when a lot of the tips are just telling you what to change, and not WHY. Also the way...
