    Me too....stickers is what kids buy at wal mart....
  2. Would you do it again?

    I wish that I had pursued cartooning as much as I pursued signmaking. Signmaking has always had my eye though. First issue I ever got of Signcraft, I knew that was what I wanted to do. But its got too easy now. Basically anyone can make signs. Not good signs, but they can make signs. I started...
  3. Would you do it again?

    Nope, sure wouldnt.
  4. Right and wrong

    And now that I think about it, no doubt he would have put the extra set on there and got a free sign. Thats why he balked about that.
  5. Right and wrong

    With friends like this you dont need enemies. If you did the job the way they knew it was going to be dont, the way they chose it, then they are stuck with it. You should have got your payment and went on. If you think this is the only customer you will ever have to act like this, you are way...
  6. adobe to corel

    What is the bet filetype to save in for corel users to open back up with no problems? Some of the people I do work for are corel users, and I work in ill.cs5. I usually send it as an eps8 or pdf, and most of the time have no problems, unless its color. Sometimes they complain the colors are off...
  7. Buy local?

    I wish I had a local supplier even close to me. Id buy my supplies from them, because they are local and the money I spend with them goes right back into our local economy. As it is now, my closest is either Bristol Va. or Sturgis, Ky. and I buy most of my stuff from the one in Sturgis, HandH...

    IVe been in business her for 30 years. Im very well known, and they know what I do. Ive even worked for this fella before,and he was pleased with price, work, etc. All the reasons you listed are just a cop out. We have several sign makers in the county, and this fella by passed them all. I...
  9. Buy local?

    Yes I do. They receive their salaries from the taxes we pay as citizens. If they buy their signs, clothing, cars, etc. out of town, how in the heck does that help the same area they represent? And actually, I do occasionally get business from outside my county, but not much, and I aint broke...
  10. New rear window signage....

    What needs to happen here, is he needs to do a layout comparable to his skills. Once he gets that done and puts it on a sign or window, etc. that shows HIS style and layout capabilities. If he uses the ideas, fonts, etc. of some of the more experienced designers, it will be a compilation of...
  11. I need a font ASAP

    I traced the image you posted in illustrator with only two small adjustments after tracking. Then added the lettering. Took about five minutes total. That was a pretty good image to trace, so it turned out good. Edited to say, Eric(Vector Doctor) is the expert in creating vectors from about...
  12. Our Shop Truck

    Looks great! Love the blues on there.
  13. New name, logo.....opinions, kicks in teeth requsted.

    Ive never really thought much of putting a design up on here for critique. Not that there are alot of people here that are great designers and can and do turn out great stuff, its the different opinions. If you put something up here, you might have 50 people that have 50 different totally...
  14. Buy local?

    All political work I do is paid in full up front, or I dont do it. Most of them are happy to do so. Just tired of this holier than thou crap from these birds, getting paid from our taxes and doing all their shopping out of town.
  15. Buy local?

    One of my friends I do work for, told me yesterday about one of our prominent local politicians buying all his signs from an out of town source. Reason he knew this, is that the signs were shipped in on Avery freight, they were 4x8s, and a pretty good size pallet of them. We all have been...

    Cut a vinyl mask and apply it to the awning material. Then paint with latex paint. Might take two or three coats. ALso heard screening ink was good for this.

  20. Tasmanian Devil

    Although sometimes some of these guys tell you in a way that may seem rough, they are telling you right. Although alot of people have used taz many times for projects, the art is copyrighted and has all the perks of being copyrighted. Even if you change it up some, still doesnt matter. A...
