  1. how to install very tall lighted sign on posts HELP

    agree with all who have said this as this isn't a quick dig a hole and ta da done kind of question. if it were me, I'd build two J-bolt cages, pour concrete, embed the j-bolts and then weld a matched plate on the ends of both poles and bolt them at the base and that just the poles. then you...
  2. no more stupid trimcap!

    Gemini makes them and calls them "Edge -Gol Face" only problem with Gemini is you only get choice of two fonts. like the idea to have anything you want and no more trim cap!

    do you have a link to the different textures you can do?
  4. Employee Woes

    sounds like she's a keeper. no excuses is a big deal
  5. Logo and first layered vinyl

    the moon and such would be a good idea if you did do this as a side line at night but since you don't, it send the wrong message. I so agree with bob that the "z" instead of "s" does conjure up the pants around the knees guy. a logo sends a message to all who view it and it is up to you to make...
  6. Employee Woes

    is it just one or two out of how many that she entered? people are not machines and they do make errors. if it is about 50/50 for her data entry erros, then you have a problem. talk to her about it and tell her what you told us meaning she is helpful and you want to keep her on and add data...
  7. A starting point...

    that was my first thougth too. also if I see one more brush on a sign shop sign, I think I'll throw up as it is so over used and almost as bad as beveled letters with 15 outlines and 6 drop shadows. I do like the idea that the logo is set on a sign with some style. the question is do you make...
  8. suggestions for a weak design concept?

    agree. I did a bing.com search of bubble tea logos and they do all look like a car wash. like what Tiki did as it doesn't look like a place to bring the dog for a bath. lucky us, we don't have any bubble tea places yet that I know of and am thinking that is a good thing
  9. Customer brings me artwork from another shop....

    SignsNow didn't have anything on the print to show they owned it?
  10. What's with Gemini lately...? Anyone else?

    their quotes have taken longer over the past few years. they do a pretty good job on custom stuff for us and I've only had a few issues which they resolved. overall, I'm happy with them and I don't expect to see a same day quote on everything I send over. if you need something right now, just...
  11. Impending death of script fonts?

    didn't they invent cursive as it made writing faster? looked it up and seems like there was a good reason way back when to invent cursive writing but then we kind of kept it after problem solved. maybe time to say good by.
  12. Some country fun for a good cause........................

    our town every year has the dairy festival. they paint a grid with number on main st and let out a Holstein on the last day of the event. you buy a gird and hope the cow poops in it. nothing like sitting on a curb on main st waiting for a cow to poop. sounds like you had fun and ould lend a...
  13. cutting stencils for painting

    this kind of thing just bugs the hell out of me. "natural talent" like it is God given and no one would wasn't tapped on the head by God himself with a mahl stick has the right to even attemt this. the OP has not shown what they are making and yet there are assumed big simple letters. not...
  14. cutting stencils for painting

    what are you painting? you didn't say letters, you said large images. the vinyl paint mask is a lot cheaper than going out to buy a projector which may or may not work. biggest problem with a projector is distortion and why kick it old school when vinyl paint mask is cheap material
  15. cutting stencils for painting

    vinyl paint mask will work.
  16. Logo Critique

    we went to Maine this summer. there's a building that has been several restaurants over the years. my family was out looking for a place to have dinner, pulled up to the building and could not figure out from the sign if this was another restaurant or if it had become a bar. we had my 3 year...

  19. Logo Critique

    a farm and biker bar and you can't use the word bar...you poor thing trying to come up with something to convey that message! is this for a sign? does the building look like a bar meaning neon beer signs in the windows or somehting that would make it clear this is a bar and not a restaurant...
