I use the thumbnail as a sort of test on every idea anyone ever posts. If you can't read it in the thumbnail, without enlarging, it's pretty much ineffective. The original is wayyy too copy-heavy and also very busy. Remember that people have about 5 seconds to read and absorb your message. I...

It was crappy on Tuesday but I blamed VD (Valentine's Day) Love....Jill

Based on your initial post... I have been taught to never use that color red with that shade of blue. Contrast is your friend. If you eliminated the red stuff completely, and just did jazzy Sign in white it would look a lot better. But it's still a really ho-hum layout. Jazzy to me is a fun word...

For logo design/bizcards I get paid in full in advance. I charge $75 per revision for anything after the allotted two revisions. I would tell her that for her to come in and sit beside you, you charge $100 for 30 minutes. Sure you may not like what she comes up with, but don't put it in your...

You're gonna have to be real careful using that name. Regular people won't care but sign folks are gonna pick it apart. Love....Jill

That's not just a spine it's a whole corpse! Luckily in 27 years I have never gotten stuck putting a spine or any kind of bones on any medical sign. But at this point I would if it meant a job. Love....Jill

We all had this in mid December. It comes in two versions, the one-day or the three-day. It should be called the Shart Flu. It's bad bad bad. I had to pull over on the turnpike and hurl out my passenger's side door. Luckily by that point there was nothing left in my nether regions. You get the...

Hi and welcome from PA. Glad you like my advice. Keep on learning. One thing I would say is that try to never squish or stretch fonts to fit. The other thing is just a general question... Why does every damn back Dr insist on using a stupid spine in their logo? Love....Jill

Can't give any advice on printing or laminating but you'll like it much better if you don't use MDO. Use alumalite. It's lightweight yet sturdy and you don't have to p!ss around with the edges. Love....Jill

MacCrap sux. Brittle, rips easily etc. Stick with what you're using. FDC is OK though. The only problem I ever had with it was an unmarked splice. Love....Jill

...'twasn't me!

Yay! Thanks Evan. Wonder why I can't see it? You know me, I am not good with this stuff. :)

Yup, all alone in the woods in that big house, which I guess has a lot of mirrors in it so when you're in there by yourself at night it can get kind of creepy. I've only ever driven past it on the way to Ohiopyle. There's another FLW house in the area called Kentuck Knob. I think both houses are...

I agree about not having a pig in there. But I think you need to lose the oval and the blue outline around "Hog Wild" and make sure your lines of text have the same slant. I like Colin's jostled idea, for fun and movement. Love....Jill

I use Facebook. It hasn't really brought me in any business, but I like it because it gives me a "presence" out among the people. I can upload HUGE pix (unlike my crappy GoDaddy website) I can update daily with a photo of whatever I'm working on so that I at least look busy. Evan linked my FB to...

I agree, looks like Dyer to me too. As a side note, my sweetie was a night time security guard @ Fallingwater at one time. Lots of ba'ars in those woods. Love....Jill

Very happy for you both. Enjoy! Love....Jill

Thank you! Turnpike or any simple gothic font.

Love the stuff. I don't even mind the smell. It's slicker than sh!t. Love...Jill

Hey! Thanks for thinking of me. I'd also like you to think about Neato or John Deaton, they may be more car-oriented than me and also need the work. Spread the wealth, baby! Love....Jill
