  1. Well, Reading made the news again......................

    there were cops on the scene and had set up a crime scene. this guy wouldn't let them do their job, he took things into his own hands had there been no cops on the scene, he might have been a hero who stepped in. from what the report says, that isn't what happened. I agree that those who...
  2. Well, Reading made the news again......................

    sounds like the bonehead was close to the scene, decided to go up to the two guys and tell them to stay there as the cops were there and when, of course, they didn't bonehead pulls out his gun and kills them. who asked this guy to step in? not the cops not anyone else so he put himself in front...
  3. Suggestions and critiques welcome

    the Phillips 66 logo is simple and looks like a road sign. I can see you not doing a knock off of it but there is way too much going on for no reason in the logo, flags, sunbursts and more. it just seems to way over done and too complex for what it is. maybe work on a shape and instead of...
  4. New Partial Wrap for Shop Truck

    well that's no good for a wrap, where are the skulls? the diamond plate? torn metal and words that can't be read by any one with the gift of sight? no lime green? no blocky things, no flames? what's wrong with you designing a nice looking wrap! great job!

  7. I need glasses!!!

    how is it if you pick up a book and read it? when you read a book, you look down. when you are looking at your 'puter screen you are looking straight ahead. could it be that the part that's for close up is only at the bottom of the lens?

    simple can turn into nighmare really fast. a few years back, we had a "simple" sign to make and install on the side of a building. asked how high up, he said about 8 to 10 feet up on the side of a building. simple. we asked what the buildng was made of. brick. simple. we got there and what...
  9. Comic Sans

    set it on diamond plate, add a bevel and add a swoosh, then laugh every time you drive by it.
  10. Rraaaannttttt

    I feel your pain!!! we get these calls not from another sign shop but from the general public. when we ask what kind of sign are you looking for, my favorite answer is "you tell me, you're the sign company" really? OK, here it goes, you NEED a gold leaf sign with black smalt made from ebony wood...
  11. Gas below $3 per gallon in New Jersey, how about by you...

    $3.42 at the cheapy gas places $3.49 at the other places. at one of the cheapy places, they give you an extra .05 off a gallon if you pay with debit or credit and the other gives you .03 off for paying cash. which brings it down to the lowest I've seen for a long time
  12. what glue to install magnetized sheet to drywall

    that sounds like a better idea. if not, try some glues on your shop wall to see what holds. Goop glue makes several types that might work
  13. Spare Dongle

    seems like if this is important enough to put you out of business, it would important enough to upgrade or buy a second old program with a dongle.
  14. Couple jobs from this week.

    looks good. it threw me when I saw the letters change 'cause I thought, damn, she's good she painted new copy and it looks blasted. in my defense, I am a natural blond;)
  15. what glue to install magnetized sheet to drywall

    no idea how to glue something like that to a wall. maybe better to mount it to something and then mount that to the wall. another idea would be to laminate baked steel sheets
  16. Basic stuff unless you are a Green Horn. Yup that's me.

    2.6 is an antique version of Omega and may not support the file in the pdf. a PRM file is just a file Omega makes. I've never made a PRM and I've been running Gerber software since way back before 2.6 and way after. most likely it is a non-supported version of Illy in that pdf
  17. what glue to install magnetized sheet to drywall

    what material are you using for the sheets, how thick? how high? how wide? does it have to be glue as you could do a lot of other mounting methods that might hold this up better like z-clips. you also could screw into the wall and cover the screw heads or mount a frame over the screws

    well, duh, I didn't think of that now for that brown water...now that could be a PA thing:rolleyes:[/INDENT]
  19. Making small signs worth it?

    have you ever had to get a quote from an engraver for thse little plastic signs with just a line of copy? they aren't cheap and the materials aren't all that expense so it's clear that they don't do square footage on little signs and netiher should we
  20. Couple jobs from this week.

    the sandblasted sign said "welcome to" then in the re-paint, it says something else. how was that done as the background is blasted and the letters are smooth? was it a newly blasted sign? it looks nice but not sure why the river is brown unless that is the actual color of the river. the...
