  1. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    I'm surprized he paid Jill. At one point and time, I actually paid a retainer fee for an attorney to send cease and desists when I saw my artwork elsewhere that wasn't paid for. It was worth it a decade ago, paid $500 to have the attorney, and $95 every time I sent a cease and desist .. sadly...
  2. A starting point...

    papyrus? really? uugghhhhh gag me with a spoon. you have 4 different typefaces, with 13 (yes I counted) colors in your design with a asymetrical design on symetrical background and as a whole, something ugly and unreadable. Couple tips, design in only 2 color to start (black and white, pink...
  3. suggestions for a weak design concept?

    Damn tiki, good job taking the concept and punching it in the face with your skills.
  4. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    Be cordial, set expectations that file transfers cost money to cover time spend converting files to non-shop files, educate the customer slightly about the different types of art options they can purchase in advance to avoid such issues in the future, customer relations blah blah blah here...
  5. Email me a digital copy for our new website.....

    This. I've been doing this for years now, saved me personally a world of headaches. Now other shops I've worked at don't do this and its always an issue when someone wants the art and it almost always goes as follows: "I want the art for (insert use here)" "Ok, we will have to charge you a...
  6. Wrapping a Helmet... with a drum

    Only if the helmets have pink eye.
  7. Wrapping a Helmet... with a drum

    I would do an eyeball helmet, since the place you first start pushing won't distort.
  8. Wrapping a Helmet... with a drum

    did this before, easy enough, just stretches like sin so avoid words, avoid easily distorted art, and use edge prep & sealer like a smart man should. Just set proper expectations that they shouldn't **** with the edge cause it still wants to pull up even after you've heated the memory out of...
  9. suggestions for a weak design concept?

    Bubble tea is just a black tea with milk and simple sugar in it with ice and then you drop in additives, popular adds are tapioca, flavored jellies, mint balls, soft fleshy fruit, etc ... and some flavor the tea themselves or opt to go with a frozen fruit slushy thing instead of tea. Quite...
  10. yard signs on my property

    My buddy in Orlando would pay people $.05 a stake during political sign season to go pull them up and bring them in ... every morning code enforcement would go through and pull them up anyways. about 90% of the stakes weren't bent so he would get his freebee stakes for the next 2 years in the...
  11. Need a font match on this one

    Jeez! That was both scary fast and correct! thanks J Hill.
  12. Need a font match on this one

    what the font is completely stumped and can't find a thing that is close. Any help would be awesomely appreciated.
  13. Knowing what you know now...

    This is where I'm at right now. I've already passed on even quoting for larger jobs just because there are so many shops in town that will gladly underbid just to keep workers from sitting there, that I've been cultivating that tiny job mentality because I wanted the freedom of time that larger...
  14. Roland GX 24 not cutting all the way..

    your numbers look slightly rounded from cutting anyways ... your blade swivel (whatever setting that is that lets brings the blade out a little so when it cuts back making a sharp corner ... that term) is out of whack. also, if its not cutting all the way, your offset is also out of whack...
  15. Coroplast signs on painted Interior walls

    I don't know why you don't use some aggressive foam tape ... used one by duraco to attach a metal letter to my solid wood door, when i went to remove it I gave it a tug thinking it would just take some paint up ... ripped the wood out of the door. 3m scotch foam tape is pretty fricken...
  16. Impending death of script fonts?

    Well, I don't know if I'm talking about dumbing down kids ... Education should not be limited to the classroom, which is a folly of a lot of parents. I know my kid will still learn to at least READ cursive if not write it, and while my cursive skills are about as advanced as a parrot with a...
  17. Impending death of script fonts?

    I really don't see the problem with them NOT teaching cursive in schools. They should on the other hand teach children how to write coherently so people can read the chicken scratch most people butcher on forms. With the changes to education, teaching something useful like proper English so I...
  18. Duck Mascot

    Thanks. The exact line was 'duck wielding a bat' ... suggested a crossed bat with duck head design funny enough. Just didn't go for it. you should have seen the first one, he had deranged eyes and arms twice as thick ... the roided version as it were .. I quickly scratched that idea out...
  19. Duck Mascot

    Don't normally draw this stuff, as there is a veritable cornacopia of mascots out there, but a duck holding a bat ... almost devoid of existance on the web. So I pulled out the illustration pens and quickly sketched one out. I'm just under an hour total from sketch to vector.
