  1. Faux Wood Exterior on sign?

    We just finished a ground sign using Nichiha panels. I don't have any pictures yet, as it is in South Dakota being installed in the next couple of days. We called the company, they sent us to a local supplier, which I remembered we used the local supplier the last time. Which is the sign in the...
  2. Did y'all see what some "designer" did to poor Pope Francis' Tomb??

    Yes they did, including my design professors from Finland and painting professor from Nigeria. The latter actually was one of the best artists I've ever met, I learned a lot about painting from him.
  3. Did y'all see what some "designer" did to poor Pope Francis' Tomb??

    I disagree with this, having multiple teacher's in my family, they steer away from politics with students. I had no professors in college try to influence me politically, they were just teaching their subject of specialty. Only those classes dealing with political science or philosophy would...
  4. Did y'all see what some "designer" did to poor Pope Francis' Tomb??

    My mother-in-law brought it to my attention, I didn't know it wasn't one word the first time I saw it. Then when she told me what it was suppose to say (FRA NCISC VS) I about lost my mind laughing!
  5. Major oops!

    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.
  6. Not sure how to title this

    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...
  7. This is why you NEVER agree to do trademarked artwork...

    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...
  8. anyone recognize this font?

    That is an awesome tip that I will now be using, thanks for sharing it!
  9. Font Needed ASAP

    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.
  10. Help

    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.
  11. Stained glass vinyl for hallway

    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
  12. FONT ID ... PLEASE ! ! ! THANKS IN ADVANCE

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

    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"
  14. Phasing out phone calls

    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...
  15. So this is the first time I've seen something like this.

    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...
  16. So this is the first time I've seen something like this.

    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.
  17. So this is the first time I've seen something like this.

    The longer you look, the worse it gets.
  18. How about this one?

    You can't doubt Tiki lol, whatever he says is right, he's like a type god!
  19. Graffiti Remover for Window Graphics

    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...
