  1. Where do you guys make your money?

    Astro 8 we must meet some day. Would love to visit your shop
  2. How honest are you?

    On another thread, it really got me thinking... How many of you are in the sign business or in the business of doing signs? Do you live sleep breath signs? Or do you just "do it" then go home? Until the next day. I have to be honest... there seems to be quite a distinct differential...

    Diversify. Ever thought about picking up a brush? Paintbrush that is... not a broom
  5. Fallen Soldier

    A banner can be as "tacky" or as classy as the person who designed it. Remember - it's the content not the format. I have seen "Banners" with digital printing "knocked out" and two and three layers of vinyl layed in the knockouts, including gold on black/red. Looked a million dollars and very...
  6. Unique Monument Sign

    One is domed, one is rectangular. Whichever way I look at it... can't be a profile, the edges would have been filleted. Unless it's just me, and I am open to that being possible.
  7. Unique Monument Sign

    Please explain what is "unique" about it. I must be missing something, because apart from the common thread of bad design from you, I cannot see anything that I have not seen similar to before. Maybe it's "unique" because it has a domed roof on the front elevation and square on the sign. That...
  8. Chatterbox Designs Company ID interior sign

    I have to agree with many of the comments. MY opinion is it is awkward, unbalanced, confusing, and complicated. All of the things a sign should NOT be. To offer a critique is easy but where do you start? In my opinion - start again, derive a theme and in terms of design and appeal - design...
  9. "Adeline" Bed and Breakfast

    Hi all, this is just completed. All HDU and all paint (no vinyl on this baby). Great fun and a great challenge - first time I have put a "top" on one of my dimensional signs. There is a groove between the "half broom handle" and the top that they can slide in that says "NO VACANCY"...
  10. Please crit and help

    Fatboy I really think you should do one of two things: First (and preferred) - pick up a pencil and some paper. Draw out 6 or so designs - ALL DIFFERENT to the last. Improve on each design with elements etc - but be cautious NOT to overdo it. Make it a habit to draw - even in bed for 10...
