  1. Few new jobs...

    Pete, the signs were paid for with grant money, therefore, it had to have this information on there. That part I wasnt told about until the design was okayed, but we had to get it on there. You cant read it unless you are right on top of it, but thats they way they wanted it. One of them federal...

  5. help with logo

    Dont copy verbatim, but use these ideas as inspiration and reference. If you are not happy with anything you do, hire someone to design your logo. The main thing is though, you are going to be making signs and doing designs for customers, and you need to put alot of hours in just working at the...
  6. Can someone fill me in on this flu shot deal?

    Dont know if it had anything to do with the cheerleaders case, but if you are allergic to eggs, you are not supposed to get the flu shot. Both of them, H1N1 and the seasonal flu, are made using chicken embryos, so allergies to eggs will cause you problems if you get the shots. Sad story though...
  7. Can someone fill me in on this flu shot deal?

    They way I look at it, flu is a disease that can kill. This new one has caused over 600 fatalities nationwide, which isnt a large number, but they predict it will get worse over flu season. The cdc announced yesterday that this new strain causes blood clots in the lungs, something that is very...
  8. To All of the Signs101 Family

    Always enjoyed reading his posts, and from the replies above from people that actually met him, I know I would have enjoyed his company too. Bless his heart, he surely looked way too young to leave us. What a loss for his family, friends, and all us here at Signs101, his extended family. God...

  10. changing curve

    Harley is a trademarked logo, and it is against the copyright laws for any of us to sell them to customers. That being said, at one time or another, all of us have put them on something or the other, but it is more frowned upon now than before. Harley is very protective of their brand and will...
  11. Plywood Sign Advice

    Im probably a dinosaur, but I wont use anything but MDO. Basically, every sign that goes out of my shop is MDO if its going to be outside, unless of course its dimensional, then its hdu. I think in all the years Ive been doing signs, I used alumacore twice, but thats not to say its not good...

    Dont know why Im up this late, but I am, so Ill ramble a little. To me, if you are out among potential customers, the first thing you do when you are going after business is hand them your card. Now me, I want my card to slap them right in the jaw with a nice, colorful layout. Most signs are...

    Jill, you missed by not being a comedian. Some of the things you come up with, lol. That would be Tallington, from Letterhead Fonts.
  15. designing new business cards

    Nice work Stephanie! Ryker, try and get either Coreldraw or Illustrator to do layouts with. Although some of the sign programs like Flexi and Signlab, etc. are good for doing layouts, Corel and Illustrator are what most use for doing this type of thing. There's a learning curve on both, but they...
  16. designing new business cards

    About 30 minutes or so Pat. Ive been doing a fair amount of business cards lately, and really enjoy doing the layouts. Most of the time, I dont have time to do something like this and put it on here, but I had a few minutes at the shop and laid it out. I remember my earlier days, pre computer...
  17. designing new business cards

    Everyone is giving you good advise here. The colors are too dark and muted, and the lettering doesnt pop out at you. The graphic you have on there doesnt seem to be important or adding anything to the layout. Business cards are very important to a business and gives the potential customer a...

  20. Tutorial in illustrator

    I thought it was pretty cool too, and would be great to use in any kind of layout for digital printing or whatever. The guy that came up with the tutorial has only been using illustrator for a year or so. I think he's getting a pretty good grasp on its uses, lol. I find any more, Ill pass them...
