    Has anyone here done a Groupon coupon for their biz? We're thinking about it. Just curious if anyone has and how it worked out. Would you do it again?
  2. Marketing books?

    We're going to start doing more marketing and I get to be in charge of it. I've been in the biz for 20 years so I have a good idea of who our target market is. Does anyone have any suggestions for some good books on marketing a business? I want to focus on online marketing. A website of course...
  3. Ugly sign pics?

    I can't seem to find a website of pictures of ugly signs. Not necessarily funny, but just really ugly. Anyone know of a website like that? (Yes, I googled it first.) :)
  4. New "Proof Approval" form

    So I designed a fancy "Proof Approval" form to send out with proofs and it requires a signature or an email saying *approved* and the form says that an email is considered an electronic signature. We've always sent out proofs and gotten approvals, but now it's just more "official". On day 2 of...
  5. Logo help, please!

    The business is "2 Unique Birds" and they sell home furnishings. It's a mom and daughter owners. They wanted birds "kinda like partridge family birds" and retro colors. What do you think so far? I can't come up with a good font or a good way to fit in the "2". Any suggestions?

    ...for quitting smoking? I think it would work for me, and I think that's a big part of it. Just wondering if anyone else has tried it and if it worked. How would I go about finding a reputable hypnotist?

    My dad has a fridge in his garage just for beer and he would like for me to cover the doors with a decal that looks like the inside of the fridge and it's full of beer.

  10. Something that's been on my mind (design related)

    I've recently read some threads that got me thinking about something. Those of us who are designers are paid by other people who don't know how to design, or else they wouldn't be paying us to do it for them. Right? Great! But what gets me is that we then show the customer our work and leave it...
  11. GS6000 cleaning kits

    I need to change the flushing pad again. Called our supplier and the flushing pads only come in a "cleaning kit" which cost about $85. I think the kit includes the swaps, the pad, and the tiny thing of oil to put on the thing that cleans the bar the print head travels on. $85???? I ONLY need a...
  12. Logo feedback, please.

    M&W Construction Services. They don't do construction; they're engineers who project manage construction jobs, so they don't want it to look like they do construction. They like Blue. That's about all the info I have. Here are some thumbnails I did. The big one is the one I like so far. This one...
  13. Font ID please!

    This one should be easy! I know it but went through my fonts and couldn't find it. What The Font couldn't match it. Any idea? Thanks!
  14. Cutting Master cutting twice?

    I've printed 100 decals, 2 color, a simple circle graphic in red and a word in black. The customer doesn't want a rectangle background so we're contour cutting the whole thing. That's not the problem. The problem is, I've just started to cut them and noticed that it was starting to cut it twice...

  17. Do this in Photoshop?

    Can I take a rectangle and make it look like the attached image in Photoshop? I thought I saw something recently about being able to manually distort an image by dragging the selection box points around. I did this in Illustrator but that doesn't give me the freedom of distorting it however I...
  18. Photoshop: Color photo gradient to B&W?

    I need to take a color photo and make it gradiate from color to black and white. I did a google search and found a tutorial but it's not working. Someone even commented that he left out a couple of steps. I tried the additional steps and still couldn't get it to work. Does anyone here know how...
  19. My Illy is acting screwy

    My Illy CS3 is acting weird. The biggest problem right now is that I can't save in .ai format. It will save in .eps, tho. But other weird stuff is happening and I'm afraid it might get serious. Today, I was working on a simple layout. I was trying to open a clipart from our CD collection that...
