  1. exchange my window tint knowledge for your sign busines knowledge

    (FROM WATCHING THE VIDEO) Completely off topic and I may not know what I'm seeing but when did they start putting window tint on the outside of the window? I've probably lettered 100 rear windows and I've NEVER run across one that had the tint on the outside.
  2. What's with these tire kickers?

    What do I care? At the rate it's going the future of this business is going to be while you wait signs and graphics for $2 psf and available at every gas station in town. I'll pass, thank you. And in retrospect I remembered that Signs101 is a bigger time waster than RIP decals....but not by much.
  3. What's with these tire kickers?

    NOTHING we have ever done in this shop wasted as much time as "In Memory Of...." decals. NOTHING. They'd want roses, they'd want 1/2" tall commercial script, they couldn't remember the guys last name, they'd spend 15 minutes on the phone calling everybody they knew to see what everybody else...
  4. Repo Sign?

    You run into a legal issue about when possession actually changed hands. Some places will say that you can't do it, some will say it's okay. What you need to think about, though, is that if you go get them there's virtually no chance you'll get paid. Taking it to small claims court there's at...
  5. Vector Pinstriping????

    I'm amazed that every time somebody comes in looking for a legit source for clipart there are always a lot of people suggesting they just do a google image search and steal somebody elses artwork. Why don't we get Fred to set up a new forum where we can start "trading" clip art images and...
  6. Sign critique / logo

    It ain't good. It looks like you took all seven elements and just tossed them at a sign with no thought about balance, harmony, or simply good taste. Amateur font choices, BAD clip art, the curve on the top lettering is pointless, the whole thing is off balance and WHAT IN THE HELL IS "GLORIA...
  7. Am I crazy or is 4OVER trying to get "over" on me

    Should have sent them to a better printer.....and yes, I agree their ordering thing is confusing.
  8. new company logo

    Whoa. Those colors look like ass.
  9. Frustrating (Non Serious) Local Competition

    If they want it in a hurry then they can pay the same price as a retail customer. I've got one reseller who pays MORE than retail just because of the PITA factor.
  10. new company logo

    Better? :ROFLMAO:
  11. new company logo

    Yeah, I know the colors are messed up. The computer I did that on is using a 20 year old 15" CRT monitor. The colors I see on screen and what comes out the other end are usually WORLDS apart. I can't wait to see what it looks like when I get back to the shop and can look at it on a better system.
  12. new company logo

    Just a thought....
  13. new company logo

    The concept is okay, even if predictable, but the lettering needs work. The letter styles aren't really working with it and the whole thing just looks like you stuck some letters under some clip art mountains. It's a good start, you just need to work with it to get everything to flow together...
  14. Vinyl as paint mask?

    Way too big for paint mask. Pounce it and paint it. If the letters are that big you won't even need to cut them in with a fitch, you can do the whole thing with rollers.
  15. Anyone else buy dumb stuff they can't justify?

    I've got my great grandfathers 180 pound anvil. It's awesome to have around the house when you feel the need to beat on something. Grab a 5 pound mini sledge hammer and beat the fool out of the anvil....it won't care, it will just sit there and make happy "PING" sounds.
  16. HVAC vs. SIGNS

    They might be right.
  17. Window splashes are easy fun and profit!

    Well, I think the videos show Krylon. You could save a couple of bucks by using that cheap stuff from Wal-Mart.
  18. What Can You Do?

    If "local wireless company" mean cell phone service reseller like it does around here it won't matter what she's got for a logo....it's all going to be about price, anyway. There are probably 30 different resellers in Montgomery, now, and only two of them have a noticeable logo. Their sales...
