  1. I swear this client has amnesia!

    A week ago i get this email from a client, and i respond as matter-of-fact as i possible can… because it's just so ridiculous and what i really want to say is "did you suffer a blow to the head recently?" Gigi, I found this email from you with the first proofs, but you never sent a new proofs...
  2. The "NEXT" thing...the iPad 3

    I'm enjoying these guys, who are covering the iPad 3 event. http://www.ustream.tv/ltktv Personally, my only interest in the iPad 3 is for my husband, who seriously needs one. He wouldn't let me get him one for Christmas because he wanted to wait for the iPad 3. I'm just looking forward to not...

  6. Graphics, Grapes & Fruitcake...

    A guy emails me last week, says he needs a Christmas ad ASAP. I tell him if the images he wants in the ad are print quality (high resolution, 300 dpi @ 100%, NOT 72 dpi web graphics) and he can get them to me by Friday, I can have the ad ready for proofing Monday. I haven't done any work for...
  7. Is it possible to get a print quality screenshot or screen-capture?

    I've always told clients "NO" you can't pull an image off the internet and expect to use it for print, unless it's a downloadable print quality file. Today I received an email from a client who wants me to capture a single frame from a video clip, to be used on his 3' x 8' roll-up banners. The...
  8. Professional Stress Reduction... reduce, reinvent, retreat?

    When business is particularity stressful or slow these days, do find yourself thinking... reduce, reinvent or retreat? I'm sure at different stages in life, the answer would likely be different. For example, someone close to retirement age would be thinking of a "retreat" from business. But in...
  9. 60 Minutes on Steve Jobs... aaah that's better!

    Last week i posted about a show on the History Channel called iGenius: Steve Jobs.

The first half was...

  14. Can't Believe I Fell For This Scam!!

    Last night i went to Netflix to watch a movie and a survey popped up. I've taken their survey's before and with their recent changes it seemed perfectly logical to have a survey that asked about their "instant play" movies. In hind sight, even the very first question was ridiculous, because they...
