Here's a picture of me committing a crime... I appreciate the photos, and the effort it takes to get those shots, but seriously... you don't need to take a selfie doing something illegal and stupid. If those kids climbed any structure in the states, sadly they'd be branded as terrorists, and...

Despite what you think about inkjet CMYK anything... all those printers print in RGB. The RIP software converts the computer CMYK data to nearest neighboring color value of 255 color values of RGB each anyway. The better your profile, the closest match you can achieve. The software estimates ink...

I find it better to just avoid posting all the time, like I'm seeking logo or design validation from the creative community. I've not posted work in years, it seems. Yet, I still do work on nationally recognized ad campaigns. I sign NDAs and cash the check and move on to the next project. I...

WOW... Just plain lazy. I have a special category of client that gets the generic treatment from time to time. It's usually the ones who can't be pleased, gone though several revisions, picky and have a design critique committee hovering over their shoulders. 9 times out of 10, when it gets to...

FIXED! Thanks to CES020 for getting me out of a late Saturday jam!

Hi All... I've got a newer client, that no longer is in touch with the original designer. I need their logo file back saved to at least Illustrator 10. (I'm on CS5) I think the file was CS6 or CC. Can someone PM me their email, so I can send it for a quick re-save?

My demographic is people who drink water. Coke has a large product line, huge supply chain and money to burn. But I don't care about Coke, Pepsi or Kraft. They don't care about you either. Otherwise, they wouldn't be pedaling sugar water. Actually, sugar water would be an improvement. They are...

Here ya go Mike... I just did a comparison to 5 products that claim to be all natural! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1851170166/all-natural-flavored-water-enhancer/posts (Yes, the audio sucks, because we had to make a last minute decision to not use the expensive voice talent that we...

Thanks guys. My only fears about this project were surrounding the large corporate companies who could knock this formula in a day if they saw mine as a threat. Then with their million dollar advertising budgets, just bury me. I think I waited about a year too long to launch this. I've seen...

Long Nights... Check Expenses... Check Yeah, it's a gamble. But you know what? It's a great platform right now for people to venture out and actually test their ideas. I think the timing couldn't have been better. Those 3D printers, if they have all the right features and price point, always...

Well gang... it's been a long uphill battle to get to this proud point in my life where I've successfully completed a personal goal and project that I've been working on for the past few years. And I'd love to share it with my fellow Signs 101 family. I had to basically sequester myself and set...

I don't know what verbage is... but verbiage is too much or excessive words used to describe something that could have been said with less. I guess you could say verb[aH]ge like with a waspy, quasi british accent with nose and pinky in the air, to sound like you are eloquent. HAHA! (While...

Please... night and day difference between large corporate entities beholden to shareholders and small business owners. See how hard it is for most on here to relinquish jobs to outsourcing, even if it the wisest solution?

I think it's an 'Murican thing, wanting to do everything yourself. From what I've found about applicator tables is that they sell like hotcakes worldwide... except for the States. Small sign shops only see the price tag, and overlook the overall productivity and time savings they actually offer...

Yeah, I was going to say "OR a roller laminator table" But very few people have them. And many on here don't think they are worth the money. So I never bring it up.

No need to laminate coroplast. It's considered temporary signage, and basically a throwaway material. With all of the Eco-Solvent inks you can safely guarantee 2 years. I know they advertise up to 3, and many people have had signs up longer unlaminated. But as long as it's not in searing desert...

Here's your store front. Resist the urge to fill up the windows with a laundry list of everything you do. I just came up with some basics. But I don't know what it is you do exactly. So those can be tweaked. Again, if you hired me as your brand consultant I'd tweak things to match your...

Well, yeah... everything needs a little bit of work, depending on who you ask. However, sometimes things just need to get done and you need a man up and just say, "This is how it is... now go and run your business. Here's your brand and all the collateral, here's what you do with it, and what...

Here ya go...

The physical size of your sign shouldn't dictate your logo design. You have the ability to put graphics on the front windows or doors?
