  1. Your criteria for firing a customer

    I dumped one for being rude to me. She was real piece of work... demanding, condesending and an expert in graphic design, branding and sign fabrication. After a few choice encounters with her and her "assistant" (part time book keeper) I told her she could no longer afford me. It still makes me...
  2. Bed & Breakfast Sign Design Challenge

    I fooled with my entry a bit in Photoshop since I never do stuff like that. I used a watercolour filter and a texture. Then I blurred some parts of it. I used different masking tools which is also new to me. I learned several new things. I would like to send nicer looking renderings to customers...

    I like those fonts.
  4. Bed & Breakfast Sign Design Challenge

    I need a better post. The pictorial in the centre would be applied to a glass panel so it appeared to be "magically " floating in place. ( I stole the mushroom picture off Google images. Beautiful isn't it.)
  5. Pan face layout.... hit me!

    I think the service offered should be bigger.
  6. Pan face layout.... hit me!

    Maybe you could drop the bottom curved black thingy to make space for the phone number.
  7. Pan face layout.... hit me!

    I really liked the first one. I would raise the little guy up so his overalls didn't blend into the panel. It would also raise his hat/hairline above the black outline that passes under it. Shame about the phone number.
  8. Pancarama- yeah right

    Bet that "order status" button gets a lot of clicks.

    Post 20 is my fav.
  10. Snow storm???

    Crap! It's starting to sprinkle here and I gotta go to the airport tonight to pick up my wife. Hour and a half drive each way (in the summer). They're calling for 20cm by midnight and high winds. Visibility generally sucks. Should be a journey into hell...

    Don't change the colours. Just "tweak" them.

    Sweet! I does look so much better without the white bits. Now you just need to amp up the letter contrast a tad.

    Have you tried it like post#10 but with the green filled in completely around the letters? The white bits have more contrast than the text right now. Also the fade Jill suggested sounds good.
  16. Then there's snow.................

    I once stepped over the top cable of the power utility line here. This is most likely where that first pic is from. http://www.google.ca/images?um=1&hl=en&lr=&biw=1520&bih=828&tbs=isch%3A1&sa=1&q=newfoundland+snow+pictures&aq=0&aqi=g2&aql=&oq=%22newfoundland+snow%22 I can't find the photos...
  17. I've heard it all now!

    Having a degree does not mean you have common sence. He probably thought a laser engraver sounded like a cool toy to play with and at $230 for a cleaning... well he can afford a few cool toys.

    Good one!

    Nice hand drawn work. I agree it would look better if you had also drawn "The". I would also suggest it could use a bit more contrast but you are probably going for a pastel look.
  20. New Shop Truck Layout

    Don't do it man! Read post #51.... please!
