Like others have said, remove the number. I played with some lighting effects and a glossy look. Personally, I like it as is, with simply removing the phone number and adjusting the text placement to make better use of space. This will give you the most versatility.

Normally I create my own vehicle templates and don't mess with pre-made ones because I have ran into issues of accuracy or limited availability with certain models or years in the past. Because I'm busier these days I don't have the time to do this anymore. With the thousands of companies...

I came across a commercial property management company as a potential client today and they are looking to remake every name and door placard in their 2 buildings. This is easily 200-300 office spaces (maybe more) with a placard on each door for the occupant and of course the office number...

I think you are right - they either got what they needed or moved on. It still helps to bump a thread like this every so often (even 4 years later) When I typed "Vehicle template 1995 Camaro" into Google, it brought me here. It's always good to drive new folks (and old folks like me) to...

Very cool! Great job!

If I'm not mistaken, the guy behind this is a Signs101 member...... I got this back in the day when it was an excel spreadsheet. http://www.graphixcalc.com/index.asp

so here is the design with a white trap. Could this be done on clear with a double bump? (Print the white then double bump the white image with the full color image?) The way I've done the white trap allows a generous cushion for registration inconsistencies up up to a quarter inch without...

You bring up a good point Woolly, and I have given it some thought and had even considered not printing on white, but perhaps Avery chrome to add some depth. This is a new direction for me and do not have any experience with printing white ink, let alone printing white as part of a partial...

Can anyone refer me to someone who can print white at a reasonable rate? (Wholesale) I am working on some designs for vehicle graphics that require white printing. I'm thinking the best option would be to print the entire design on clear or translucent vinyl and finish with a gloss...

Good points... I'm home-based and I like it that way. I'm with you... I refuse to "give" my work away for pennies on the dollar like some home-based shops do without a good reason. This (IMO) is what differentiates between a "sticker maker" and a legitimate business venture. Having the...

I disagree on both points. 1. Just because I don't have a store front certainly doesn't mean that my products and services are less valuable or that it is just a "job". The only loss in the long term is real estate equity if I purchased a location. Considering that the vast majority of...

I have a customer who wants large decals done in mirror chrome for his car..... 1. What is the best choice for both myself and my customer for mirror chrome vinyl? I don't want to cut corners on quality to undercut the price, but I know my customer won't pay top dollar for the best vinyl out...

I have always been home-based since about 2004. I took a break for the past 4 years and I'm just getting back into it. SO far it works great except for the lack of space. I go to my customers to do installs which they love and it adds a more personal touch. I use a storage unit to apply the...

the idea that presented itself in my brain is to have the chain links NOT connected with a broken link in front of the letters. It is not a literal interpretation of missing link, but from the way you describe the business I think it might work. (Jail-breaking/unlocking cell phones, breaking...

I was taking a drink as I was reading through the replies and you almost made me spit Mello yellow all over my laptop! UPDATE - He is FINALLY open to changing up the font so perhaps the door is open to designing a real logo. He is already willing to pay double what I usually get for a logo so...

You all are correct. It sucks. He has rejected anything that doesn't match with his "vision". I hate it when a customer plays "designer". The whole point of seeking out a graphic designer is to get the best results over doing it yourself. As for the woman, I'm thinking it is the "before...

He is pretty insistent on the Script font for "Masters" so I adjusted the kerning and moved some stuff by hand. I also added a photo he provided. Personally, I hate script fonts but the customer writes the check.

I thought so too but he is insistent on the script font BEING the logo.

Customer wants a logo to brand himself. He is a cosmetic surgeon. His guidance to me was "It should say Masters MD" & "I am leaning toward something where the font itself makes up the logo. I really like script fonts like "kalligrand" and "Mon Amour script." Here is a version that he...

a little late, but this is a hand painted variant of Bookman Old Style Bold and Cooper Black. To recreate, you can use a font editor and open Bookman Old Style and change the serif to match. Also the letters with angles like "N" are a bit different but also easily manipulated in a font editor...
