  1. Your website?

    www.coloradosigns.com.au www.sydneysignworks.com.au Have fun PS. Happy to have either website "rated" Cheers - G
  2. Where to get good vinyl in europe ?

    Surely there are other sign shops in Sweden.... ask them. If they get stock shippeed in, maybe you could share the shipping costs somehow.
  3. applying vinyl on round angled glass

    PITA job... bypass on it. Chances are you will never get another one in your life... so the experience aspect almost counts for nothing.
  4. Design stress....anyone else ever get that?

    Everyone... and I mean EVERYONE has a "style". Maybe you haven't found yours yet. You mentioned about being "unworthy" to some of the "Gods" on here. But if you have a close look, many designs are similar or have a feel...and most likely you can say "Oh that's XXXX 's work". Take...
  5. New texture toolkit

    Sell sell sell
  6. If you were to move...

    Try telling that to the cheese & kisses Astro. Maybe we should move to the US just so she can "wake up to herself"...lol
  7. If you were to move...

    Already considered Fort Collins, Loveland, Longmont areas. Loveland is where the Mother in Law lives but is quite expensive compared to other US cities.
  8. If you were to move...

    Where would it be? I guess within the US of course but other input is welcome. Forget about dreams and those "Top 10" lists. Have you actually investigated were life might be easier / simpler / more personally gratifying / more financially beneficial / more reliable - stable business wise...
  9. What really matters?

    Beyond the crap that you get involved in on the internet (Signs 101 excluded of course), what really matters to you? To me it's: 1) Personal health 2) Financial stability 3) Personal happiness With these three things in place I feel I can take care of or accept anything below these...
  10. Vinyl mounting speed contest anyone?

    I would rather someone give a scenario and ask "how would you do this"? The sharing of informsation is the only way we ALL learn. For those doing it (whatever it may be) for the first time may not exactly be fast. Rememeber... fast, good, cheao... pick two.
  11. New shop logo (aka Let Me Have It)

    Too "child like". Especially with the word "crafters" - it eludes to being better than others. Sign Maniac has done a great job and you should be following that vein. Whilst I like Flames, if you do not have the abilty to make his rendition in 3D or even do it by hand - forget it. To...
  12. Before Digital Printing

    Ahhhhhh... REAL signs. Your ability / knowledge in the past will only aid you in the future, especially adding another "tool" - a digital printer. Love the fact that you can do it ALL. Cheers - G
  13. * Need to find true black ink *

    Everything aside.... profiles, RGB, CMYK, manufacturer etc etc... I believe that there is no TRUE black on the market. I also believe that this is a cost versus pigment issue. The only true way to get the BEST results you are after is to test. But let me assure you, that it is MY OPINION...
  14. Sign critique / logo

    Here is a great example of what I am talking about: Credit: Tiki Element - text - shape. Cheers - G
  15. Sign critique / logo

    Sorry but I have to disagree Harold. The late Mike Stevens who I have never heard anyone question, submits to graphic / image / applique', then text, then shape / border... in that order. If you disect most well constructed signs, labels, designs, you would have to at least rethink. May...
  16. Turn $20 into $5000 - is it possible?

    But well said signmeup. Roundman nakes some excellent points, particularly on the education side of things. You may know which button to push on the printer, or even which brush to use on that there wall. But at the end of the day - Garbage in - Garbage out. Education in terms of tools...
  17. Sign critique / logo

    Far far far too complicated. All bends, twists and arcs... no flow and the eye is all over the place. Simplify it - by heaps. Cheers - G PS And get rid of those horrible dots between the numerics - totally unnecessary.
  18. Am I crazy or is 4OVER trying to get "over" on me

    Dismiss the artwork, going by measurements, they are wrong. Did not follow instructions.
  19. Is this too corny?

    Quick play around - regarding the triple "S" Cheers - G
  20. Is this too corny?

    Scriptina is a nice "hand drawn" style font, but when you get three "s"'s in there that are all the same, it totally undoes the style. Convert to vector and manipulate the nodes so each letter looks individual, the way the original script was no doubt intended. Adjust the kerning - some tight...
