Airstrike is pretty darn close but...

Ticks me off that they probably make way more $$ than me too! Usually when a client says they had a designer do something for them and I find out that they don't have a vector or at least a higher res file, I tell the client they should fire the designer! Fire those that make 2GB files too! lol

I'm usually pretty good about "dummy proofing" things but apparently I missed the mark on this one. I apologize for any sarcasm/snide remarks. Yes, I did mean the whole gray word cloud bit. I found that image from another sign shop that had done the wrap and emailed them to see if they could...

We use trello solely for tracking orders from start to finish. Everyone can see the process from their own workstation. In for proof design, in to email client, in waiting for approval, in approved, in for print to specific substrate, in for laminate, in for application, in for vehicle install...

Uh...read the original post. I didn't say anything about needing the Salvation Army logo.

Looking for the gray "Dignite" part.

Got a request from a client for pop-up banners. Banners are approx. 36"w x 80"h. They have their own art department to create the designs. That's all fine just convert the fonts and save as pdf. Get a call a week or so later from the artist. "How do you want these files sent, they're 2GB" What...

We print to paper all the time but ALL are laminated with either matte or luster. Paper also works best when laminated and applied to 3/4" black foamboard/Gatorboard. Straight vinyl tends to shrink over time.

Classic fail on the attachment. Linked images & fonts not outlined. Never really understood why people link images. I'm sure in rare cases it's a good thing but... And ALWAYS outline fonts. Other than that I see nothing in the file that would cause the issue.

We're getting ready to do a 40ft stucco wall wrap using 3M 8524 with 8526 laminate. We used this same "combo" on several buildings in town. Lasts for 7-10 years.

I know we all verbally say "3 mil" but what we really mean is 3mm. Just clarifying. Much like the misuse of the word "your" and "you're"

If a customer "approves" then calls back after it's printed to make changes they're still charged for the prints. Sometimes the print can start as early as 5min upon approval. The sales team gets approval, pulls up the card in trello and moves it to the approved list. The designer assigned to...

9 times outta 10 you get an answer like "looks great" lol

And add to every proof. Too many times we've received an approval and after printing they didn't notice the phone # was wrong or they wanted double-sided etc.

The U.S. military is notorious for PPT files. Why? Because, as a whole, they are not authorized any other design software. Only specialized agencies are authorized Adobe and/or CorelDRAW. We have to keep MS Office on all our workstations so it's just a matter of opening in PowerPoint then...

When we travel I do most of the driving while the wife navigates. This is what I get. "your turn was back there" or she'll stair out the window and say "there it is, didn't you see the sign?"

Please don't don't that. lol Always save as tif. Same result but better quality. Tif is "lossless" where as png is not.

We once had an applicant stop by to inquire about a job posting were running at the time. The person was wearing slippers! And when asked to send in their resume per the reader board email address..., well couldn't do that.

We use the "can method" for wind slits but also hole punch the ends. All ballfield chain link fence banners get about 6 of these

I've tried working with a 3rd party to design vehicles wraps such as this. None have really worked out. I couldn't get the information that was needed to complete anything. I start with straight on photos and a few key measurements, scale in the design program then create clipping...
