  1. Font help please.

    I know the GYM is Aachen. (so is my brain) Subcopy looks Eurostil-ish. What is SOX and the Glade Run parts, if you please? (and yes, I know it's hideous) :thankyou::signs101: Love....Jill
  2. New Truck Lettering

    My old vynull was beginning to look shabby so I thought "What the heck, I'm gonna paint that thing" So I did. All hand-done, gal is based on a Gil Elvgren pin-up. Took about 3 hours, using a pattern I taped to the inside of the glass. Love....Jill
  3. Font help, Por Favor

    Can anyone ID this for me? I need to make some replacement numbers (and also stretch and squish them, apparently but hey...) :thankyou::signs101: Love....Jill
  4. Couple jobs from this week.

    All hand lettered. Third-to-last pix also feature a before and after type thing showing some old bad vinyl on a truck a client purchased, which I re-lettered with Ronan paint. Last photos are a before-n-after of a sandblasted sign I was contracted by a friend's sign company to repaint.

  6. Tire Company Repaint

    Just finished a big painted sign. Time-wise it was about 6 hours to lay out (the scissors lift I was supposed to get from the owner did not work so a good buddy helped me and we did it with ladders) Paint-wise it was about 10 hours with two people and 4 more hours just with me. I think it...
  7. 3 Fonts to ID please.

    For your consideration. From a scanned bizcard. I'd prefer to know the actual fonts rather than autotrace, but I may have to. Thanks for looking. Love....Jill
  8. Fit text to path in Corel X5

    It was so easy in Corel 12. I'm trying to fit text to path, on the bottom of the circle. (SERVICES) Used to be you just had to click the letter A up top to change text direction. Now if you click the A you get a whole menu of options, none of which lets you change text direction. I can...
  9. More painted signs.

    Still extremely busy. Here's a few more painted signs, and more on the horizon. Also a book cover. (both an e-book and a paperback) Paw Prints was not my design. I'm waiting for some pictures of a few signs after installation. Love....Jill
  10. Sample Video

  11. Distressed effect in Corel?

    I know in Illustrator you can add a distressed or eroded filter to something to age it up. I am doing a logo in Corel for someone who wants a "shabby chic" woodgrain type look. :rock-n-roll::banghead: and it has to be vector, not a photo. Is there any way I can distress my design in Corel...
  12. Poor Quality but need an ID please.

    I know I know this font, it's one I've always hated. Just can't pin it down and the image is too crappy to trace. :thankyou::signs101: Love....Jill
  13. Recent Work

    I have been busier then ever, mainly with painted work. Also getting a lot of logo jobs, which is what I'd like to be doing exclusively as I get older. In the past 6 weeks, I have completed a mural, a window painting, a ton of painted signs, and at least 5 logo-to-sign projects. Also a...
  14. Help IDing graphic type (firetruck)

    This is not gold leaf as far as I can tell. It's not SignGold either. Client says it's factory direct. I can't remember the name of the factory who produces these. (I think it's a firetruck manufacturer down South somewhere) It's gold with a clear laminate, which you can see at the edges...
  15. Arthur Vanson

    My dear friend Arthur, who was a member here "BucksSigns" passed away this morning. He was such a wonderful man, and he will be missed. He was sneaky about his username, and thought it rather funny. He posted some neat design suggestions, and I doubt that many knew just what a special guiding...
  16. Lost my colors in Corel X5

    I know that I've seen the answer on here before, and I did do a search. The thread seems to be in the same place as my color template. I somehow managed to delete or move my toolbar (or color thing on the side of my screen) Does anyone remember how to fix this issue? Because I sure don't...
  17. Patriotic Bunting?

    Need a source. I swear I just got a new catalog from somewhere but I can't find it now. (of course) Looking for traditional red white and blue bunting. :thankyou: Love....Jill
  18. Hours Sign

    Here's one I did today for my pal who is moving his tattoo shop to Mars. He supplied the painted wooden blank, I lettered it with Ronan lettering enamels and variegated gold leaf. Was going for an eroded look. I've been doing quite a bit of painted signs lately, it sure is fun. The other...
  19. Huh?

    What? :omg: Are we supposed to say "Welcome, Anal!"? :thumb: Love....Jill
  20. How to get rid of iMesh toolbar?

    Came home today to find my kid had installed iMesh on my PC. Tried to remove it, but it's added its own toolbar and I cannot get rid of that. Someone sent me this link via FB but I can't seem to make anything get rid of the rogue toolbar and get me back to the Chrome that I had...
