  1. Forum Design Ethics

    I have had several forum members ask to use a logo and some designs I have posted and I have basically let them use it for "free"... but I do ask those who are not premium members to pony up to support the site. Kinda like what Joe said, I'm not really doing logo design, so they may not be...
  2. Our New Logo

    Good job on the logo Mr Deaton.... now lets all freakin' hold hands and sing... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4p8qxGbpOk
  3. What do you guys give away as promotional items?

    I get a kick out of Draplin's stuff.... http://www.draplin.com/merch/ I have given out decals, shirts and buttons all packaged like it was a retail item with a brochure or card thrown in... will probably start doing it again in the near future...
  4. New Book (I promise, this one is better)

    I think if you are trying to be a better Corel user.. then no, it is about using Illustrator. If you want to be better at drawing or illustrating with a vector program, most of it can translate over to Corel, the book is worth it for that.
  5. New Book (I promise, this one is better)

    The last book I recommended was a decent book for a newbie sign person, but when the author of the book showed up on the forum, it left a bad impression about the writer, the content, his opinions and his abilities... so please forgive me on that one. This new book, and it's writer knows his...
  6. iPhone coming to Verizon, No seriously

    I am babying my "IPhone killer" LG Dare, which is on the verge of breaking at any minute until the Verizon IPhone comes out... my wife have an Android, it's very nice but to me a little cumbersome.
  7. Forum Design Ethics

    When I help, it's because I'm bored with what I am doing, and I need some creative release. Like Jill, it's sometimes easier to show it than to explain it. As far as trolling for work, I have no problem with some people doing that, but it's not my forum. I do it for free or ask people to...
  8. I need to turn my "business" around

    Kinda adding to Dougs words, I have to ask... Are you any good at this? Did you have any good experience in graphic design and/or signs prior to starting your business? What are your strengths in this business, and can you use them to make money? If "good" sign companies are having a hard...
  9. Forum Design Ethics

    My policy is this.... If I post a design, and you like it, you might be able to use it... under these conditions... --Ask me. --If you are not a premium subscriber, I may ask you to become one, and give you the design for your use. --Ask me. --If you are already a premium subscriber... ask me...
  10. Can't We Just Shoot'em?

    My kid looks like a douchebag... because he is a douchebag... don't let your girls date my son....

  15. Adobe Cs2

    I was gonna type an elaborate answer... but I'm thinking you are just not gonna get it.
  16. Making text on a angle with a wave

    There in lies another problem, not knowing your software... If you "expand" it, it will cut on a plotter....
  17. Adobe Cs2

    What gives me a better look or feel for the design is some scale reference like a scale person or a car. Otherwise, your looking at the same graphic scaled or full size on the screen... Around here, in order to get permits, we have to design to a scale (either architectural or engineer) in...
  18. New Shop Truck Layout

    I thought I would send 1/2 hour on this to show you... The logo is from an old gamer clan but it's close to the style your logo is... but the logo is consistent type and graphically. I showed the base or foundation...then with the themed (as much as a half hour would allow) graphics...
  19. New Shop Truck Layout

    I love simple... but I also like "digital yak" once in a while. But there is a right way to do it... Looking at your site, "digital yak" seems to be your style. You're probably not gonna change that anytime soon. Your logo has some issues... the logo and the background are your base for the...
