  1. What do you do for electronic proofs?

    What we do... What the company i work for does is create a presentation in Illustrator and save as a PDF with the security set to print low res only. Yes, I kno that the security on PDFs can be bypassed if you know what you are doing. I harken it to be a kin of locking your shed. It just...
  2. How often do you get this................. ??

    This has happened to me before. I am sure it will happen again. I thought you handled it perfectly. How can anyone realistically look down on her request? She had spent significany money (to her) for old sign. She wanted to re-use it. I would have. People buy cabinets and channel letters and...
  3. Metallic Digital Printing

    It is printing PMS 10388C. This color got spec'd out for the project. You know those marketing guys... They got to have what they got to have. Sheesh! I know you have printed on the silver metallic vinyl with spectacular looking results but that is a little too spectacular for this deal. LOL!
  4. Metallic Digital Printing

    I am looking for someone to do some digital printing using the metallic inks. Can someone point me to a merchant here? Thanks!
  5. New client logo just finished...

    I think it is an excellent job. A real portfolio keeper, for sure! Outstanding!
  6. Blackletter Font ID ... anyone?

    To be honest, this looks like it was scanned and the vectorized and cleaned up. The curve of some of the strokes are not smooth. The flourishes do not match. Kind of neat. There is a series of text and blackletter fonts ... Kings . A boatload of different ones.
  7. Need advice/comments on van wrap...

    Watch putting a wrap around the backside like that. Keep the color solid when wrapping around. Makes for much easier installs.
  8. A mix / mash of ideas.

    I think this looks really good considering the parameters that the clients gave you. Yes, very nice, indeed.
  9. Any thoughts?

    Another design exercise while watching hockey... I liked the basic layout. I used some different fonts. Trajan Bold heavied up a bit and LHF Sophia Script which I tweaked quite a bit. I used Futura Light Condensed for the sub copy. I really liked the cross and added an inner concave shade for...
  10. Not quite "feeling" it...

    Just having a little exercise while watching hockey...
  11. Finally made a sign for myself

    Beautifully understated! Love the "retro" feel to it.

    Hands Rick big *** bottle of aspirins... For your headache, brother!
  13. Intellectual Property and Copyright Theft In Our Industry.

    I totally concur! I will take mine black, thank you! .
  14. Worst customer we've had so far! Rant!

    I would have said, "No. I provide the lowest pricing possible based on past relationships and that you are a non-profit. It is my way of giving back to the community. My work is worth the extra hundred dollars per truck." When you price match against a competitors price, what you are telling...
  15. 1st post, 1st Logo

    I believe that a lot of people who have trouble with Mike Stevens' book have poor reading comprehension. The book was not written for entertainment value. It was written as an extension of the Mike Stevens Journals. There are principles in the book that can be carried over into logo design but...
  16. Jacksonville Jaguars New logo. Like or dislike.

    None of the teams own their names or logos. they all belong to NFL Properties. All the monies collected from sales of all merchandise goes into a big pot and is divided up among the entire league in equal shares. The "new" Detroit Lions design is a total rip off of the Kansas State Wildcats...
  17. Having fun with signs.

    Where the hell did Fred hide the "Like" button? Very nice work. Clean and well designed.
  18. Recommend a plotter to me.

    I thought my Allen Datagraph was an excellent cutter. Nver gave us many issues. Their tech support was good. Machine was well made.
