  1. Horrible design for drug task force patch

    Seriously, what in the heck were they thinking? This is the patch the local drug task force has chosen for itself. It's almost bad enough for me to want to start up a meth lab just to tick them off. And the phrase at the bottom is a mistranslation. It should be "Nos Pugno Malum", not "Nos...
  2. Credit Card Processing WTF?

    Sat down this morning and started doing a cost analysis of everything, started with credit card processing. I've always been happy with Intuit, they've been helpful, quick, and (I thought) cheap. I'd been noticing monthly MTOT charges at the end of every month were increasing but my credit...
  3. Font ID please

    REACH. Anyone know it?
  4. Font ID

    Font pointed at....Thanks.
  5. Lawyer really, really, really wants you to know his name

    Went to a chamber of commerce Halloween festival with my kids tonight. One of the tables giving out little bags of candy had these in the bags. He's really got his name on a magnetic business card four times....and no, that's not a messed up scan, that's how bad the printing was on them...
  6. Customer brings me artwork from another shop....

    Customer just came in and pitched a fit because the sign I made for him is "wrong and costing him a fortune in lost business". He brought me artwork, said a friend did it for him. Made his sign exactly like the layout he brought me and installed it on his building. Turns out that the layout...
  7. Impending death of script fonts?

    So, something occurred to me this morning. Schools across the country are getting away from teaching cursive handwriting because it's no longer needed, 41 states have either done away with it or are not requiring it. If you remember the Travon Martin case there was a witness who was asked to...
  8. This logo working?

    Trying to set it apart from the myriad of landscaping logos around here that are all Futura Black and Snapper Script
  9. Soooo......

    I'm really trying to not go off on tangents about other peoples artwork these days. A look back on some of the stuff I was damn proud of five years ago made me cringe so I'm trying to cut the world a little slack. Then I get brought finished artwork like this. I don't even know how to...
  10. Ever noticed this messed up national logo?

    Just got mentioned to me today that the S in LOWE'S doesn't match the other lettering. Somehow I'd never noticed....now I'll never be able to un-notice it.
  11. Future of the industry?

    So, Signmaniac mentioned the future of the industry in a post earlier and it's had me thinking about where it's come from in 10 years and where it looks like its going. I'd like your thoughts on it, too. -10 years ago I was getting single orders for 10 or more banners at least once a week...
  12. Okay...Signs365 just pulled the most epic customer service job EVER

    I am sitting here absolutely stunned about what just happened. I can't even figure out how to write about it. Signs365 is in Michigan. I'm in Alabama. Yesterday I ordered two 2'x6' banners for same day production but through an error on my part or theirs the banners didn't ship yesterday...
  13. Am I the only person having problems with Signs 365 Same Day production?

    I like dealing with Signs365 because their website is easy as heck to order from, their prices are good, and their quality is good. I take advantage of Same Day banner production a good bit because it's made me pretty competitive with local shops with printers. I place 3-4 orders a week with...
  14. Font Identity needed please

    Any idea that's not Sonrisa?
  15. 4th grade level question about hard drive ghosting.

    Yes, I've googled this until I'm too dang confused to know which way to go. My main design station that I lovingly built with my own two hands, and painstakingly loaded with every program I use on a regular basis, and carefully selected only the fonts I'd really use and essentially turned into...
  16. Signs 365 shocking service

    Placed an order for several coro signs and a banner from Signs 365 Tuesday. The packages were printed and shipped...and just happened to be on the UPS plane which crashed in Birmingham yesterday. Signs365 apparently received the notice from UPS, immediately reprinted the signs and overnighted...
  17. Christmas Festival logo help

    So....I get the joy of designing a free logo for my hometown Christmas event and I'm just not feeling it. The logo is going to have to be used for the car show, beauty pageant, tree lighting, bridge lighting, boat parade, street parade, street party, water skiing Santa Claus, art show, quilt...
  18. My first credit card charge back! Woo hoo!

    Customer called a few months ago and said he had a sign cabinet that he needed new faces in. It no longer had working lighting and he didn't want to fix it, he just wanted aluminum panels to slide into it. Asked him what size he needed the panels, he didn't know, so we talked about how to...
  19. Ten band logos in two hours

    Working on designs for a local music festival. Had two hours last night to create band logos for the 10 bands that are scheduled. Tried to make each one fit the style of the band. I'm finding that the less time I get to do stuff like this the better the final product comes out. They're all...
  20. Isn't it about time for a new t-shirt?

    Just thinking it's about time for some new Signs101 t-shirts. The last one was in 2005. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?2846-T-Shirt-Design-Contest-Time-to-Vote-for-a-Winner&highlight=t-shirt+contest
