  1. How to proceed

    I only design, so I get paid... my portfolio is what qualifies me. I do lose money on initial presentations, quoting, and contract stuff that gets turned down, I'm not about to give the fun stuff away. Of all the sign shops I worked at, very few charged. Most people on the site will probably...
  2. Vendor Quote Times

    Depends on the complexity of a monument sign. I put larger jobs together for various clients and I sometimes get 3-5 days for sign shop/vendors, on larger jobs, I set a deadline (7-10 working days) and I get a few who push the deadline.
  3. It's only gonna get tougher

    Colin, this debate was going on way longer than a year... you really should have figured out that the only ones making money is the site hosting it... if they do 790k a month, and they get 10%, thats some nice cash to pocket... if you do a "logoworks" search, you will see varying comments... my...
  4. It's only gonna get tougher

    If I was a designer in a third world country, this site would make me hundreds! There is some decent to very good original design coming out of these sites. I simply can't compete with someone who's yearly income is 10,000k a year, that that is doing really good for people in their country... so...

  8. Logo Critique

    Pet peeve #10,243... Adding ".com" to a logo.... Unless your company name is "Design To Decals Dot Com" you should design the logo without it. Then when developing layouts for particular media, you add stuff to it. Pet peeve #7,934... adding service to logos... same as above, if your...

  13. Photography Logo

    Here are quick designs after giving it some thought... one is an obscure reference to "look at the birdie" saying photographers used to do. One is sorta pinched from one of my favorite designers and modernized. Some are cute, some corporate, some literal... After thinking it, just started...
  14. Photography Logo

    What the shweeze are you talking about... I was condescending! I think you were being sarcastic... But it's to get you to think. As I told a few others on here... stick to the "design process"... design is more thinking than pretty pictures... especially logo design. You ask a series of...

  16. Photography Logo

    A logo does not have to be "obvious" to be memorable.... I agree with Colin.. much like construction company's have little houses on their logos and beauty shops have bad Nagel knock off image on it, photographers have lots of iris, shutter and camera images on them. Colin's idea semi-reminded...
