    Love it!
  2. Saturday Morning Jacka**

    If someone came into my shop and wanted a logo done in an hour, Id politely tell them that logos run anywhere from 300 to 1000 bucks. If they want one done in an hour, Id have to charge a rush charge. Logo designs and signs themselves have been bastardized to this point. Customers dont...

    Actually wasnt asking for that reason. You were here every day, then dropped off the planet. Just wondered about it...take care.
  5. Happy Fathers Day to All YOU DADDYS

    One thing I always want to be able to say, and that my kids believe, is that I love them unconditionally, and did my best to be a good father to them. If I never achieved anything else, I would be content with that...and thank you Kgirl!.....

    Where did Adtechia go? Have not seen him on here for awhile.
  7. How can I get this effect on the font?

    We all started somewhere. ALot of us started many years ago with a brush and paint, and I can tell you, I was completely lost on what materials to use, etc. Local signguys wouldnt give me the time of day, and I sorta understand that now. Luckily, one of my family members saw Signcraft somewhere...

  9. How to tell who owns the rights to artwork?

    I seriously dont think that would hold up in court Gino. Can I say for sure...Nope. But, how many of us has that signed paper saying that the customer refused to buy the logo? I would say not many. So after a few years, the guy we did the work for decides he wants somebody else, he takes our...
  10. How to tell who owns the rights to artwork?

    Be sure and ask a lawyer about all this. I sometimes do work for people, and most of the time give them full ownership, but I still own several logos for companies here locally that never paid me for the original logo. Ive never furnished them files, and wont until they buy the design. Make sure...
  11. Greetings From The Volunteer State

    Welcome from Harlan, Ky. We come down to pigeon forge every year. Love it down there.
  12. Referrals

    I sometimes get referrals from other people or shops, and most just send them to me, but some want me to price it and then they price it so they can make money on the job too. How do you guys handle this? I mean sometimes, I think they price it too high and the job is lost. Do you work with...
  13. Modified Plumbers Logo

    Tiki and Bobs versions are both great, but I also think his original version has some merit, and it shows he has layout skills. The advice you all have given him here is great,and judging by his replies, he no doubtedly will use that advice, but telling him to use someone elses design I dont...

  15. Sign made from my artwork

    Bruce, the guy I worked with was Rich Llitzenberger. He's the assistant manager of graphic service at Dorney Park. Im pretty sure he found me through signs101, so he may be a member.
  16. Sign made from my artwork

    I did an illustration for the Dorney Park graphics division of a kid on an innertube. They took that illustration and made this very cool sign for one of their water rides. They sure did a great job. Looks just like the art too!
  17. dump truck signage

    Unless you use 080 aluminum, its going to get dented all to heck. IT will have to be thick. I would use 080, letter with vinyl and let it go. If the letters do get damaged, its easy enough to fix. But truly, this guy is asking for the moon. Nothing will last a really long time on those trucks...
  18. Winery Signs

    Very nice!
  19. Let's Discuss Pickles...

    Five pages on pickles. Lord have mercy. I love pickles. Spears are my favorite, and dills on my burgers. What about olives? Any olive lovers here. I sometimes sit down and eat a whole jar. Love em!
