  1. Potential or Trainwreck?

    tiki's version looks too much like "fine point" to me though.... saw that like 3x looking at it. I kind of like the different slant - adds a warm feeling to the image - but would be enhanced by bending the "t" inwards a little bit. would frame it out
  2. Whats happening

    welcome from MD
  3. Some people have nerve....

    we had one this week- it's for one of those "independant" power companies. They wanted us to design a trifold 2 sided brochure, essentially from scratch, with very little info on what they wanted listed as their services. The basis for this design was another "independant" power...
  4. Printing on Lam

    Also - for a cool *** effect, try printing single strike on lam, and then applying to brushed or patterned aluminum - metallic ink analog with a nice texture. Can also be used to create (kinda) color matched brushed aluminum logos/text.
  5. nice signs in Kennebrook maine

    did some work for a zumba store in this area - it's essentially a franchise, and they are all required to use certain fonts/colors. Unfortunately, the franchise owners are sent (by corporate?) to some crap "sticker" place with some of the worst vinyl I've ever installed.
  6. Will vinyl adhere to galvanized steel?

    galv steel is hard as hell to paint due to the coating on it, can't recall what it is - need to buy a special primer just to have a chance at that. I'd have concerns about that.
  7. LOGO help

    1st - too distressed, and slanted 2nd - too plain 3rd - not enough contrast 4th - best
  8. Chiroprator Sign Layout

    Down the road from my old house, there's a 3-D spine for a chiropractor, about 12' tall and 3' wide. Kinda terrifying seeing that on top of a 15 foot pylon. Hey maniac - nice looking sign, but why the lightning?
  9. Logos with "hidden messages"...

    reminds me of "lamp or crotch"
  10. Not much of a wrap but great car, and great guy.

    Looks good - you could've put a flat black down first, contoured, to make a 1/4" stroke around the hole thing - would have eased into the transition better I think.
  11. "The DJ Corner"

    Buddy of mine is a DJ, also is running a corner of his family's electronics store, and calling it "The DJ Corner". I've ran thru like 15 rough designs for the logo, but none of them are really working, unfortunately we're deisgning around an existing sign which happens to be 4' x 4'. Mine...
  12. Screw you 3M.

    Not quite.... they're also advertising at the top of this page, lol
  13. Font ID

    AC Delco?
  14. Parking Signs

    Carrie* Also, you can buy "no parking" signs from grimco for pretty dirt cheap, and its reflective.
  15. Considering the VS540

    There's ways around the metallic/white "leak" issue, btw ;)
  16. Weird Band Name Logo In Canada

    I feel like I was just subliminally forcefed something religious... that face is terrifying imo. He'll swallow your soul, he'll swallow you're soul!
  17. Waste?

    make comfortable chairs outta it.
  18. The Flying Avocado

    Their logo came that way ;) We noticed it too, but figured it was that way for a reason. We used 3/4" thick comacel all the way, about half a board total - had it routed by the supplier. Really liked how the letters came out - the vinyl actually has a drop shadow on it below the letters as...
  19. The Flying Avocado

    This was a fun job - first time we've done mixed media work with multiple layers. 3 layers deep, 1st is only an oval, 2nd is the inner oval, and third is the avocado and the banner. Put additional support under the banner and avocado. We used gloss vinyl with lam for the graphics, joined the...
  20. Lamination

    yea, clearshield for us, on the rare occasions we liquid lam anymore... sometimes it gives a good texture effect to graphics.
