I thought there was someone on here that enjoys making subliminal dicks in drawings?
Was it andyd? Sounds like andyd...
Oh, and honestly, if it looks like a penis... I think I'm ok with that.
Good on ya, I think it'll take a demented mind to come to the conclusion in the first place, it's just, what has been seen, can't be unseen. I think the rainbow works better at any rate, but I will say it too could have the wrong interpretation in my neck of the woods, but you're not here...

Not terrible but don’t like the paw print thing on the left or the colors. Logo color too.

Try a medium Blue and Orange or medium Green for the Co Name.

Make RY the same color and drop the area code brackets, We’re all 10 digit dialing here in NJ, Area codes don’t exist or overlap here… you can dial a friend down the road and the first 3 digits are different.


Change out the Teal too.

Thanks for your honest feedback and suggestions for improvement. I'll be playing around with the design again soon and see how some of your suggestions appeal to my sense of taste.

Not a bad idea to drop the area code brackets, and perhaps even the area code itself since that could be a given around here, and may allow to go bigger and bolder with the font for better readability.

Get a longer squeegee it will help you have less bubbles. If you use the hinge method (masking tape down the center, stick half the decal on at a time) you shouldn't have problems getting it on straight.
Also, if you have a laminator, I would recommend applying the transfer tape with it. Since we figured that out, relatively late after we had our laminator, bubbles-b-gone, specially if you also install it with the laminator itself (half and half is what we usually do).

We? Was that directed at the op, post #67, or the rest of the people contributing to this thread?

It's better to have two hands than one glove.
Buy one of these it will help with the air bubbles. Great start! :)

This is a sure fire winner in the upcoming Bad Advice competitions, free style division. Far better simply to learn how to squeegee properly. Do this and there won't be any air bubbles. Even if there are, just let it sit for a few days, in the sun if you can. Since vinyl is gas permeable, any bubbles will disappear all by themselves.

Oh, I love mingling with narcissistic snobs. I'm a little too tired to get worked up today, so you'll have to get your ego boost from another unfortunate victim.

However, this is just too easy:

Go but but yourself...

Yes, I guess this is who WE are.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Next hater, please?

Edit: Again, to be clear, I'm cool with any actual criticism on my work, but anyone that wants to fit in any digs at my person can go f*** themselves and I'll kindly tell them where to go. With that said, carry on.

Or you could just ignore them and carry on. Responding to it just shows you want to get into a back and forth pissing contest. Don't get me wrong, the drama of a pissing contest is quite entertaining, but if you think you look like your taking the high road for the rest of the class.... you are not.
