So when you say "off-center" do you mean right/left? Or up/down? Because it looks like both to me, and I am baffled by how far up those letters are placed.

I'm was brought on strictly as a designer, but since then I have learned how to pull permits, and deal with all the nightmares that come with that department. I've never dug a hole or put up a sign, that doesn't mean I didn't learn what all it takes to do said things. It just took some time and...

We have a customer that just had his account frozen by Warhammer 40k. He wanted their logo as a wall sign, and I knew we needed someone high-ups permission to use the logo. We couldn't ever get anyone to respond back to phone calls or emails, and told the customer we hadn't got a hold of anyone...

That is an awesome tip that I will now be using, thanks for sharing it!

If that is the only letters you need, that's a clear enough image I would just plot all the points to create it myself and move on.

This guy gets it!

I talked with my boss about where we get ours, he said to call Eastern Metal Supply. They might be able to help you, but I don't have a number. He said they are a national company, and it looks like they are predominately Midwest/East Coast when I googled them. Hope that helps.

We used Orafol Transparent vinyl instead of translucent for a project. I googled it, and here is their website: https://www.orafol.com/en/americas/products/oracal-8300-transparent-cal

That looks like Papyrus and some random script font had a baby lol

As a designer, I have no problem with what people can make in CANVA. But god does it piss me off when they don't know how to get the vector version. "WeLl ThIs Is AlL iT wOuLd GiVe Me"

There is no good way to do it, other than balancing multiple forms based on the customer and their preference. My biggest issue with phone calls, and it has burned me in the past, is when you have a customer that approves things over the phone, but when you get the end result and they object to...

I've only been in the industry going on 5 years now, I have never seen this before, and I've seen some wild things in my baby tenure lol. But those are LED retrofit sticks in the sign already. The thing I didn't show, is how far the pole tilts to one side. But our issue is they want to retrofit...

That's just a few of the issues with this project. Sales had the easy job of just bidding the project, permitting it is a whole different ordeal.

The longer you look, the worse it gets.

You can't doubt Tiki lol, whatever he says is right, he's like a type god!

This is your best option, as someone who has been in the graffiti community, nothing is going to stop it, or they will come up with something else that will make a mark. But like Boudica said, inside of the glass. We do a lot of car show trophies, so we reverse print the graphics on clear vinyl...

I just put Comic Sans on a sign for a child care center the other day, and laughed while I did it. Then the project manager came back and said they approved it lol. I hope someone gets a laugh when they see the sign.

We would use aluminum square tubing for the frame and posts. 4"x4" for the posts, and 1"x1" for the frame. Then use aluminum composite panel for the face, and put vinyl graphics on, printed or cut. But I agree the example sign was put together with whatever the person could find at hand.

We just google it, and use whatever option comes up first. Considering yard signs for our shop, are a complete waste of time.

I don't know when I will need it, but that Harley Davidson brand standard is going to come in handy at some point. And now I won't have to look for it, thank you lol.
