  1. Help editing logo

    Why would anyone what to make the right image look anything like the left? Other than perhaps as an entry to a competition to render a poor logo into a completely incomprehensible logo.
  2. Logo Critique

    Right now it's rather dark and forbidding. Color, properly done, may or may not mitigate that. Too much color and it will look like a logo for a traveling circus, too little and it will remain dark and forbidding. I use the term 'forbidding' because it most certainly doesn't make me want to...
  3. What's the best rip software to use for wide format printing?

    Pick whatever one gets you off. They all use essentially the same engine. They differ mainly in user interface and, to a lesser or greater degree, parameter handling. But they all do the same thing in pretty much the same way. Much like Corel vs Adobe, Ford vs Chevrolet, etc.
  4. Clean Cut issue

    Because you do the contour and the perforation on two different paths. Observe...
  5. Clean Cut issue

    As everyone else has noted, cutting through the backing is somewhat less than a Good Idea. It's one of those things that just because you can do it is no sign you should do it. Not only does it lay waste to your cutting strip but it eats blades.Paper is incredibly abrasive and the life of a...
  6. Please Help With Font

    Not a type face, just some amateur with a Speedball pen. The 't's are different.
  7. Can you remove the side molding on Ford Transit?

    The fundamental principle of 'If it went on it can be removed' would most certainly indicate that the piece is removable. Unfortunately that principle gives no guidance as to the difficulty of the actual removal and replacement. Glue or clips? Removal hints? I've always fount that a visit or...
  8. Thoughts on these layouts

    Eh
  9. Thoughts on these layouts

    The top one but crop out the mailbox. It's all you see. Crop it out and make the rest of it a taste larger.
  10. Another Neato logo design, and I need some feedback!

    The set on the left are iterations of the 'Yo dude, surf's up' version on the right as interpreted by a government agency. The word 'institutional' immediately comes to mind. Boring.
  11. Thin vinyl good adhesion

    The reason sharp points and even square corners are to be avoided is simple three dimensional geometry. Consider that vinyl represents varying width, the X and Y direction, but a constant thickness, the Z direction. That being the case when the material comes to a point there necessarily...
  12. Printing Small Text

    This is one of those things that merely because it might be possible to do is not sufficient reason to do it. Cut vinyl has to be the single most ridiculous solution.
  13. Jacksonville Jaguars New logo. Like or dislike.

    Since you can't name a team after anything human any more without provoking protest, the animal kingdom seems to be all that is left. Gone are the days of Indians, Redskins, Pirates, Vikings, and other groups of mostly unpleasent humans. Seems a shame. Stanford was never the same when they...
  14. Jacksonville Jaguars New logo. Like or dislike.

    It looks like every other logo where a school has some variety of big cat for a mascot. Which is at least half of them. Boring. Why not be different an use an image of a classic XK120.
  15. Recommend a plotter to me.

    It ceased being your thread when you pressed 'Enter'. You post whatever it might please you to post. Others get to post whatever it might please them to post. Ponder that for as long as it might take for you to comprehend just what's happening here. You have no control over what might happen...
  16. Which icon character for logo

    Now move the bottom 'B' up a taste so that the angle at the top of it lines up exactly with the angle on the top of the upper 'B'. Right now they miss lining up by a bit and it provides a subtle but annoying distraction. One of those things that is discordant but you don't know why until you...
  17. Papyrus...

    Actually Papyrus is a rather nice type face. Unfortunately every amateur on the planet thinks so as well. If this face were not given out with MSWord Publisher, etc, but sold by one of the specialty vendors like LHF et al would anyone feel the same hatred? The incredible overuse of this face...
  18. PDF vs. EPS

    Pdf, much like its vicious little cousin eps, was/is supposed to be a container for relatively common objects such as text, bitmaps, vector data. etc.These are well defined. Alas there is no transcendental standard for things such as transparencies and gradients thus these can be iffy. It...
  19. -

    Change that silly name. 'Karma' is as stupid a name as it is a concept.
  20. Which icon character for logo

    The thing with blackletter is that even under the best conditions it's hard as hell to read. The 'B's are passable but the 'ad eanie' is hard on the eyes. Aggravated by the depressing color scheme. Why not try leaving the 'B's as decorative initials and make the 'ad eanie' in some not...
