that reply was most likely for me, as im the one that posted a link to google for advanced plastics in jonesboro....
Ok i will be using a 4x8 sheet of poly metal from tubelite. Not to bad expensive. Any advice on mounting it to the wall. outside wall has vinyl siding and i kinda old.
Its funny i am asking some of the same questions about how and were to get things that you are but instead i get send them to a real sign shop? For what reason?
Sorry i have not gotten back to this forum in the last couple months. Have been covered up with yes sign stuff.. So i guess i am not a real sign shop but boy do my customers think that i am a lot better than most the other local........
David yes that post was for you. Sorry i do apologize but i get aggravated when i do my research and still yet i am looked down upon.
But Tube-Lite does make a trip locally every Wednesday and i have been getting materials every Wednesday since i called them.
Again thanks for all the help and even the sarcasm and telling me i am not good enough. guess what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger...
Pat. Yes i did miss read where you stated that the 2 companies were in Memphis. My apologies to you also.
i so much do enjoy happy endings......
looks brilliant while leaning or having a tendency towards marvelous.....
hehered on black. meh.
It's not the best sign I've ever seen, but I have seen far worse.
Next time, avoid using red text on the black (no contrast) and NEVER stretch a font to fit like you did on the bottom line.
Elements could have been a bit closer together and had more breathing room around the edges, but like I said, it's better than a lot of things I've seen.
I'm glad you showed it to us.
Not making fun of you, but who really is the sign person here...... You or your customer/helper ??
As a professional or backyard hack, you are supposed to be in command. You are supposedly the expert. If you can't tell a friend how hideous that sign is gonna look when finished, you are nothing to that person/customer/friend.
This is precisely why so many people have b!tches against wannabee sign makers. They turn out crap like this and then blame their shortcomings & faults on someone who isn't even in the sign industry. She did this, he did that and I couldn't get a word in edge-wise. Bull-ony.
You should go to them and say, in all fairness, I have to do these two signs over again for you. First of all, no one can read it due to the choice of fonts, the choice of colors and the bad composition. I can't sleep at night, knowing I took your money for this when you told me up front you didn't have much to spare and then I give you these pieces of crap. I'm ashamed of myself and I wanna do better for you. It's the least I can do.
