Here's another go at it. Sorry, forgot to take the graphics out before the export and the bottom looks a little crazy. But you get the idea. I do more vehicle graphics than signs. That's why I had it there. Let me know what you think. Thanks again for the response.

yeah, there was a border. it just didn't export. i hate the copperplate as well. i just need some fonts. i'm only allowed up to 8' banner. i got the book on the way from amazon. will the red in my logo still work since its outlined? or should i do something different? should i even do a...

I know its been said there's some problems with red on black. I just wanted to confirm that and get some feedback. This one's for me so anything goes. Also, I'll be hanging this at a truck-pull/demo derby i'm sponsoring. Probably 150 feet to the back row of the stands. What's my best letter...

i thought you meant don't stretch them straight out. all i did there was convert to artistic text and stretch up and out from a corner node to increase the size. how are you resizing the text?

i think i'll just keep going down the list of fonts till someone like one. :design: :ROFLMAO: No seriously, thanks for the heads up. I am trying to get it together. I knew I had seen the car outline before. But, there's not one around here. The custy likes it and now I don't want to...

here's the latest. i'm finally getting happy with it.

hadn't done much removal and had forgotten about rapid remover. thanks for reminding me. have to get that on the next order. do you guys do a lot of removal? i didn't think i would see a lot of it. but, i guess there's a lot out there needing replaced.

thank you gino. this project has me pumped to go buy a new sander. what should i get. finish, random orbit, belt? most of its use will be for signs of course.

i have a custy bring me a metal commercial door painted with white enamel and old faded vinyl on both sides. this has been his sign for years. and honestly looks like it made a good one. i used my steamer to remove the vinyl. however, there is still some glue left behind that had pushed out...

no price yet. just getting my feet wet while helping out a guy who sends me a ton of business. price isn't super important. but a low budget to upgrade what's there. i've mostly done lettering and storefronts (glass.) my first sign like this. you guys have given me a lot to consider...

anyone know a font package to recommend good for signs, lettering, and logos? looking for something that might leave out all the junk and contains more of what i'll use. if it exists. i'm a noob and having a hard time figuring out the good ones. just checking if there's a popular consensus...

sorry, may have been having too much fun at the time. honestly, i'm doing this sign cheap. i'm new to the biz and helping clients that i know and will be patient with me through the process while i learn. and this guy is on a budget. he was watching his new neighbor getting a sign installed...

replacing another sign on a 2x4 framing above a porch roof. speaking of which... am i using screws for this? or bolts? or?

here's a new take on it. not sure i like it myself but it could be the lack of color. the custy actually mentioned a lightning bolt and i originally also had a lightning bolt for a leg to the foot. but honestly thought bolts were over played and i'd get a but chewing on the forum for it...

that's why i posted it. thank you. and its good to hear i'm improving. i've got some books ordered from amazon. can't wait to get em. hope they are as helpful as folks on the forum say. no matter what fonts i use, i'm being told to change them. is there a resource for "acceptable fonts"...

still working on the last one but got hit with 2 more. i guess busy is a good problem to have though. maybe once i get that first one out of the way the rest will come a little easier. anyway here it is. put it together quick as a rough. i would like chrome instead of the gray but haven't...

thank you for that response. i'll get to the fonts. and i learned something from how you put that together for me. emphasis and fonts together weren't even considered. so am i think colors and graphic are ok then? or is this another back to the drawing board situation?

oh i'm with ya man. what do you find wrong with the last one i posted? other than stretching fonts.

so we're changing the name of the business? not sure that will go over well with my custy. this guy's middle eastern, but the rest of us are hillbillies. sounds like i'm on track after all.

good question. forever? :ROFLMAO: why do you ask?
