Well, I have the video. Unfortunately I can't get it out of Camtasia since I've upgraded to Mavericks, it crashes almost instantly when I open it. So, as soon as I find a work around or fix I'll get it up. Sorry it's taking so long!

lol - I originally wanted "monkey." Only reason, because my Fiancee calls me her monkey. Unfortunately the domain I wanted was taken so I settled for chimp. So easy a monkey can do it.

I know this post is old, but I was searching and came across it. After seeing this, I asked one of my co-workers that is really good in illustrator if she knew an easy way to do this. She didn't have a quick response so I figured it wasn't as common knowledge as I thought it was. I created...

Super easy. I'll make a tutorial for you when I get off work on how to do it.

I agree with John Butto. Now is the perfect time to help raise your net promoters score - along with creating a business connection if things can be resolved. Is it worth her running and telling 5 - 10 friends, blasting it on Facebook and everywhere else to create more detractors for your...

If I try opening - I still get that pop up that you're talking about - warning me that things may not display properly but it does display right. I have ran into issues once with art that was off of the art board that won't display in older versions. The person that creates the original file...

File > Place This is what I do as I operate on CS6 and my coworker is on the cloud. Works fine.

LOL, your guys' responses are precisely why I'm doing these blog articles. To give more explanation. Your marketing efforts target your specific audience. Yes, your different areas of branding - logos, colors and all that are noticed because of how they make people feel. A logo doesn't...

Yes. was basic. Part 1. Target audience is more along the lines of marketing. This is more of what a brand is. It's the feelings that are attached with those things when people see them. It's what people say about you and how they interact - regardless of the audience. I will be getting...

Interesting that I read "you can't be taught." If there is a will there is a way to do anything in life. But, interestingly enough I saw this on the news a while back and this guy had learned and progressed quite a bit...

Some also turned vector too! http://brandonaldred.com/amazing-typography-work-martin-schmetzer/

Indesign does convert to outlines, but everything else Fred said is true. I bounce from mac to pc every day and there are slight variations. It looks close most of the time. I've also tried to take my font library from my pc to install on my mac at work and I can only install about 80% of the...

Yes, Bob, that is right, but a logo doesn't have to be a symbol. A logo could be a mark (logo) or it could be a logo type - such as coca cola. They usually coincide with each other and whenever possible they are to be used together, but for small places such as favorite icons or tricky areas...

John Butto - I agree too. I think a lot of things need to have the simple stick shaken at them. When it comes to the lightning bolt, what value does that add? Even the text in mine. I dunno about the "Electric Motor Sales & Service". When I was making it, it seemed super redundant...

rjpjr - It's funny I think you and I had the same thoughts. I was working on this and just went to upload my idea and saw yours. But here it is anyway. I liked the colors used, and I liked that it was simple and plain. peavy123 I don't think you necessarily need the motor in there, and I...

So I want to start doing posts featuring different artists and trades. Everyone can appreciate signs because there's a lot of design/craftsmanship that go into them. Whether it's painted, or 3d, or even just vinyl. If you would like to have something displayed on my website please email me at...

In this tutorial I show you how to recreate the text effect seen in Nike's "Unleash Speed" Advertisements. Check it out here: http://brandonaldred.com/?p=683 UPDATE: Also, I know that when you are doing the intersecting paths through the pathfinder, that the star part can be behind the text...

So, I'm in the process of writing a few pieces about branding, what it is, how to do it, benefits of investing in your brand and a lot more. This is my first real post. The whole reason I am doing this is because I feel like I have a pretty good understanding. I can explain in person, but I...
