  1. logo critique

    uck! I don't have much good to say about it. I don't get it at all. what is that shape? just a shape or does it relate to the product some how? the font looks old and dated like a techie font from the 80's. how will they be using the logo? website? product? ads? how does this sell the...
  2. Not your everyday kinda sign deal.............................

    all the shootings are just regular folks who get pi$$ed off or go nuts, not hearing much of anything but that lately and it is every where. I guess it is what happens in a gun toting society where the rights of the gun toters matters more than the rights of others. I personally am sick of it...
  3. What font to use ?

    me too. it looks elegant and not over done as some of the bolder scripts seem to make it look. love the simple inner border too

  5. Thoughts On This Logo Concept?

  6. Nothing better than starting off your morning raging a scammer

    turn in in to Homeland Security as I bet they could really make his day!
  7. Our Logo...

    the big "S" has some weird shapes where it crosses over the background. (see areas circled in red). the font for the name looks crushed and squeezed and dated. the combination of tht forced, crushed look & the oversized "S" just makes me not want to look at it or try to read it. the date is...
  8. Thoughts On This Logo Concept?

    agree totally. there is nothing wrong with doing something different but you need to have a big advertising budget to go along with it to put the image into the public's eye so it understands. If you posted the name without the word bewing co. under it and asked us to guess what kind of...
  9. Can I FAX that to you?

    our fax came really handy this morning as a guy from Homeland Security has been trying to send an e-mail to use and it gets kicked back. tried all our addresses and we jsut gave up and he faxed the one page I needed. it was more of a pain trying to get the e-mail version to work, spent way too...

  11. Problem with lighted sign vinyl

    I use Gerber 220 black on lighted signs and have never had it not block out. has the OP said what brand yet? also, never never never use calendar vinyl for a sign that needs to last more than a day. that junk is for short term use. people do use it and you can tell as it is the stuff that is...
  12. welp, off to work at the strip club.....

    yep, a strip club. the guy was trying to bust the ba!!$ of the local regs and opened a strip club so it was all over the news. I got to design and make his sign. when they drove him out of town, I got to do another design and make a new sign for his new strip club. it was kind of fun as I...
  13. Problem with lighted sign vinyl

    opaque black should be OK to use on a lighted sign when you want an area that lets no light threw. not sure why the yellow translucent is showing threw the black, what brand are you using? I agree never layer on a lighted sign, but I am suprised the black didn't block out all the light as it...
  14. cut line around a bitmap?

    I'd make a clipping path in Omega. not sure what you are running but see if there is something like that that you can use.
  15. think your Mon AM was bad..?

    nope, sure wasn't me! she's Burlington, MA and I'm near Burlington, VT if I were to go nuts and do something like that, you'd know as it would be a nice font, a good contrasting color and kerned correctly!

    Tony, I have a HS15 Plus running with 5.0 if that is any help. contact me if it does and let me know what I can do to help.
  17. Cops staking out my place?

    what did the plates (or plate) look like? we have the state, local and gov and they all are a different color, are yours up there? I've seen stuff like that in Kennebunkport, ME when GW was coming to town. the unmarked black SUV's were everywhere.
  18. Happy Freakin' Monday

    ugh, sounds like you need a break! I just love it when they do that! I had some files from an organization that is super picky about their Pantone colors so their own "designer" set all the files in CMYK, none of which matched up to anything...what is up with these guys?
  19. Tractor + Police = mayhem and or Mosh?

    this was one mad farmer! happen about 20 miles from me. they claim that they couldn't hear what was going on as the station is in an old branch of a closed down bank and the vault is still there and muffled the sound...ya, right. this guy ran over 5 sheriff cars, one town cop car and a van...
  20. Can we discuss politics without getting political?

    yes please as this is a good example of colors, fonts and a whole lot of other things to "sell" us on something. it is fun picking it apart. I brought up the TV ads as I pointed them out to hubby. once you actually see what they are doing, it's fun to look at it that way. it's like sex in...
