weeeeell, CRAP!

+1 on Rick's statement... that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!

Makes you look like a BIG company where a customer can feel "safe" but the green emphasis keeps the edgy feel. Really nice!

People that will go to that kind of trouble to make a home made sign will never be a good customer.... EVER! You're time is more valuable and could be spent prospecting better cusomers

Nice! Didn't think of that. I love anything that allows me to add value into my work.

So, I've been thinking about how to answer this since reading it earlier today... first off, thank you, Stacy for finally naming what I do, for me.. commercial design... I like it! and better yet, I'm proud of it. I've been an "artist" since I could hold a pencil. I didn't even know you could...

rofl I'm with you!

actually, my favorite ones are not my best customers... I mean they don't really get much but they are great to know and refer everyone they can our way :]

seriously! Can I be Rick when I grow up?!

Awesome!

Fortunately, these people usually bring in business for us because they suck so bad, people look for a legitimate shop! We always joke over here about the odd combo of business too and all the businesses one owner goes through... we get alot of foreign nationals needing work visas LOL

i use stouse, for what it's worth

Holy crap! Can I stow away?

ROFL my dad did it for years, even though he was an artist. He's looking down on this post getting a chuckle right now. When their being showed up by the next distributor with their professional looking graphics, they'll be saying, "gee, why do they do so much better than us?!"

I try to get them to put the emphasis on what they do, rather than the logo and make that small on the sign. We've had a couple of those too. Most recently, a LARGE decorating franchise "updated" their logo, apparently corp speak for "uglied it up!" It's horrendous and an absolutely awful...

watched and bumping for ya ;)

yeah, here, the out of the house shops have a bad connotation, as it is usually someone who bought a little plotter off craigslist and decided they could get rich making signs *rolls eyes* honestly, they hurt our business and then they see they aren't getting rich and move on. Unfortunately, a...

We had a production guy who swore by it and he saved us a bundle on mask with his adoration for the tool. The guy who replaced him, not so much... lol But we like them and if you do a lot of repeat designs/quantities on simple signs, it's great!
