One of the books I can think of off the top of my head that was a good read, Ogilvy on Advertising: http://www.amazon.com/Ogilvy-Advertising-David/dp/039472903X Explains what makes an advertisement successful, backed by research and one of the best advertisers to be in the biz. As far as...

When looking at your design, thumbnail and large, what stands out is "all above" not the graphics portion, that kind of blends into the bar. It's just how the brain works. There's a lot of research documents that talk about this and what makes effective advertising. It's just when you are...

These guys beat on this poor boy so much. A few people have given good constructive criticism. Honestly, before jumping into things, I would do some reading on logo types and other stuff as well. I see a lot of people on here that call themselves "designers." A few things that I do know...

What the others have said, but also, make sure both programs are in the same color mode whether it is RGB or CMYK. That way you won't see any differences if you use the "Rich black." I notice most people that say something about the blacks looking different though, usually find themselves...

and does it still do it when you have "consolidate all windows" checked as well?

what workspace are you on? Essentials?

Fed Ex Logo also contains a spoon. Crazy.

Does anyone send them out? Email blasts are one of my main focus' at work just because it drives so much in extra sells... ive been looking into how to refine mine and was going through some of my old notes and found an info graphic from a while ago that ithought id share to those of you who...

Thanks John! Glad you could learn some things from it. :):thankyou:

No worries. If you ever need any help or anything, just let me know. I don't know it all, but I am willing to help. Same with everyone else. If anyone would like to see any tutorials, let me know.

Here ya go, It's the most recent post. http://thedesignchimp.com/

I made you a video tutorial on how to do it, I think I got it pretty close, can spend more time on the dark outline part and some of the effects, but as soon as it's done uploading i'll share the link. You can also download the source files to see it as well.

ha. welcome to race car graphics. so many designs get ripped off. I've had a lot ripped off, most cool designs do. if you look at some of black beards designs, his are pretty popular for being duplicated in the sprint car world right now.

I bought this mini ITX computer and built it, then realized a short while later that I really need the money. It is almost exactly what I paid for it but no one seems to be interested in it at all. I built it just for basic processing stuff for my fiancee but it never got used lol...

ya, that is what i did with the vinyl the first time around. Cut along the body lines. I was trying to figure out if i have a design with a lot of lines or something, to make sure they line up, if there is a way that those templates are marked so you know where a design picks up and leaves off...

Ya, I know its not wrapped its cut, but thats what i'm asking how they get the pieces to line up with the design on them.

Well, kind of. R/C Car wrap. I have a question about how you guys would approach making a wrap on a body that has the many curves. I've laid vinyl on it, cut across the important body lines to make a template and tried to design on that. I can get something close, but the lines won't match...

lol the comment above reminds me of an old spice commercial look at your man, now back at me, now switch to RGB, now back to CMYK. anyway. This was a really really easy fix. Maybe I should offer a video on how to do this. I would have done it the same way with "select > color range" and...

Hi Gang, I just recently put together this tutorial on how to tile objects in Illustrator without having to copy and paste. I was watching someone do it that way and they had no idea how to do it automatically, so I decided to make this. If anyone else has anything they would like to learn or...

I don't think it is necessarily a "clean sweep" however does take a lot of planning. Their identity package they slowly roll out. They test in smaller areas then let it grow. It appears to take hold and look like a clean sweep because it did its job and it sticks in your your head and you...
