  2. Logo Concept

    The logo and the card are adequate... if that is what you are shooting for, then you got it... but if I stuffed your card in the pile of cards I have collected through the years, it does not stick out. They are not great, not bad either, I have not seen enough of your work to know if you can do...
  3. Blog advice

    No one cares about color management and construction of a vinyl sign or banner. They want to know how a banner will help their business. they want to know how much, they want to see before and afters and pretty pictures.... I go to blogs or some really good designers.. there is very little...
  4. Sign critique / logo

    --- Design the logo first, and disregard the sign shape while you are designing it.... ---Stop slapping barber pole, scissors and cutters on the logo or layout, you would have to be a total nimrod not to know what a barber/salon is. Oh and instead of an image of a barber pole... sell them one...

    There is also Zumar Safeway Signs Western Highway
  6. Sign critique / logo

    First of all, is that their logo? Do they need a logo? Looks like a logo-ized layout to me, and not legible or effective. It looks like 3 separate looks with nothing to bind them together.... It usually starts with the logo, and interpreting the message/copy and prioritizing correctly.

  11. what do you think?

    If you are asking... um... I don't like saying things suck, a thought provoking answer might be, it's not communicating "quality" design or a matured sense of visual and conceptual thought, it's not clever, funny, or techy. Just mismatched, unbalanced type with decorative elements slapped on...
  12. Lost a nice client... saw that one coming!

    I probably would have done the same thing.... My contract says all artwork will be provided on a CD, past that they will be billed hourly with a minimum of one hour for any replaced artwork. I don't always charge that, but it covers my butt if I have a client who routinely loses it or hires out...
  13. what do you think?

    One thing about cute names like "prototype"... you have to have an audience, and you have to be able to pull it off.... I'm not against cute names... I have one, but you want people to get it. I'm not gettin' it with your logo These cats seem to be doing it right... http://www.prototypedesign.net/
  14. what do you think?

    How much research have you done? Your name has a somewhat 'Avant Garde' techy sound to it but in a 80ish 'Back to the Future' kinda way... But I usually encourage people to have a concept behind the logo design... it does not have to be deep, obscure or clever, but clever would help. Having...
  15. what do you think?

    I can see that!
  16. Honest opinion please

    I would not worry about your experience too much, most people here are self-taught. I would stick to the lower end Graphtec or Summa cutters. You can design in Illy or Corel, just remember a cutter needs a path to follow to "expand" and "expand appearance" will be your friend. For software, a...
  17. Lost a nice client... saw that one coming!

    On design work, I usually release artwork because I get paid enough to, and I don't fabricate or print anything, so I have to release it anyways... I would not be too surprised of your work shows up on Susie Q's website either...
  18. what do you think?

    3 Years? What is the concept? What's the name of the company? Is that a 66? Lose the squeezy type...
  19. new company logo

    The mountain options look like various piles of something... Clean, crisp lines... think prudential logo... not piles of ca-ca The type is too stylized on the left, way too thin (and stylized) and the right and no balance. Try a thick typeface and a medium typeface... mix it up.
  20. Lost a nice client... saw that one coming!

    These "affordable" places are a dime a dozen around here.... I have a few local places bookmarked, I'm pretty sure I have your "competitions" bookmarked too. They all have the same basic look and information. They may have the "design" speak from copy and pasting a design firms (or each others)...
