  1. What, exactly, makes sign people qualified to design anything?

    I have a computer and I know how to push buttons. So yeah I can design anything. At least that is what some clients think anyway.
  2. landline or cell

    Have a land line but getting ready to drop it. Only reason I had it was that service provider allows me to forward calls at no extra cost. So I would have it forwarded to my cell. I use to have both numbers on my cards but started just putting my cell number on there since that was pretty...
  3. Paint Brushes?

    Thanks for the info guys. Going to print out the reasons why you need to oil the brushes when not in use. Will definitely pass that info on.
  4. Ethically wrong in my opinion

    I was contacted by the coach along with the other companies that put in a bid on the job. They were trying to find who was doing it. Dont think they will go with him again. I know one school has removed them from the list when they send bids out. Maybe a couple more after this. Just stupid.
  5. Ethically wrong in my opinion

    Got off the phone earlier with one of the basketball coaches for the middle schools here that I bid on some shirts for the team to sell to raise money. (I mentioned last week about my troubles with the schools.) This lady was pissed and wanted to know if I was making her designed shirts and...
  6. Paint Brushes?

    Good Idea about the newspaper. Definitely going to keep that in mind for him. I was wondering the same thing. The brushes I have are not the nicest and I have probably ruined them by letting them sit in the leather case they were in.
  7. Dry Erase Laminate

    Wypet is good. Fellers is the only one I have seen carry it.
  8. Another Application Tape Question

    I use the 4075rla everyday on every project. Never had a problem with it.
  9. Another Application Tape Question

    I for one dont like clear tape. It seems to always tunnel when you roll it up and the static with it sucks. I use 4075-rla and never seem to have a problem. I believe there is a version of the clear like the 4075-rla but the vendor here last week mentioned that there was an rtape clear that...
  10. Design Genius Paul Rand

    Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Paint Brushes?

    Thanks Jill for the info. Was looking for a lettering book or some kind of book to help with some techniques and styles. Ya I wasn't completely sure if they would be good for lettering but they seemed like some good brushes. Thats why I asked first. I wasnt sure about what was best for...
  12. Paint Brushes?

    Thanks OP. Was going to ask about the powder paint. Also what do you guys think of this set. http://www.dickblick.com/products/robert-simmons-holiday-brush-sets/#photos I was looking on there and found these. I am thinking they would be pretty good for beginning with but again I am not sure.
  13. Paint Brushes?

    I figured I would be spending some money on some decent brushes. Didnt want to get him something that gave him more grief and deter him from wanting to do this. I think the tempra paint will be the best bet like most have suggested. I think I might get a couple small sets of brushes for him...
  14. Paint Brushes?

    Thanks for the info. Going to look more into it tonight. I think he will be excited about it.
  15. Paint Brushes?

    My nephew (actually my cousins son) was with us this weekend and he is pretty good at drawing and becoming a pretty good artist in my opinion. He is 10 years old and can draw way better than I can. He was helping in the shop when I came across a video of some sign painters. He watched...
  16. Business card shipping

    Have not had that high of shipping costs from GP. Usually around 8 bucks for a 4lb box of 1000 cards. Also being in Kentucky, they should get there pretty quick and cheaper shipping. I would call and see if there was a mix up with the shipping calculation. Now I have had 4 sets of cards...
  17. Finger paint anyone

    That was awesome.
  18. I really Hate the School District.

    If they just sent a check with no letter then you can deposit it. If there is a letter stating that they are only sending this amount because of specific reasons and you then deposit the money, you are agreeing with the letter that this payment is met. He was telling me about a group of...
  19. I really Hate the School District.

    Ya that would have been interesting. I usually keep everything. Notes I write down no matter what it is on. Most people may have a file of 3-5 papers for a simple project and I will have about 25-30 pieces in there. Drives my wife nuts when she is looking for something but 99% of the time...
  20. I really Hate the School District.

    Well that was a lot easier than expected. Walked in waited 3-5 minutes and a guy came out shook my hand said the Superintendent wouldn't be able to meet right now. I was about to go off when he handed me an envelope with a check in it. He said there was a problem with another vendor for them...
