  1. Fun Situation.

    Just because you pointed it out I deleted all the posts you referenced about my personal artwork just to show off what my printer can do. I guess I will need to tell my kids to also make sure they don't draw mickey mouse due to copyright issues with Disney, I would hate to post that up or print...

    Legally you can with the permission of the artist lol. So there is that. I get your point thank you for your info.

    Thank you for this. This is something we for sure need to start including on the fine print of our invoices.

    A lot of this stuff your pointing out was for personal use not for profit. Just examples of the quality we can print as well as the size. I am very aware of copyrights and what we can legally sell or not. No one says you can't make a banner for personal use especially of artwork that was created...

    Let's be honest Gross is $8500 profit about half. we have about a 50% margin we run with. What I didn't say is I donated a ton of signs to this nonprofit as well. Let's not forget Taxes in Cali so let's drop another 1.5k in that total profit for good old uncle sam. So again they got 100% of what...

    They didn't pay for vectorizing lol, they Paid for the Signs that they got. I charge for vectorizing and if they paid for that service I would have no issues handing over the artwork.
  7. Fun Situation.

    I said I donated my time, not the artwork. They are demanding the artwork I donated my time to make the artwork come out nice. I could have just printed what they sent me right? Then it would have looked like my business does a crappy job printing if it came out all pixelated? We don't do work...

    Your right, I will give them the original files just like I got them from them :) Not the cleaned-up production files because that was not part of the invoice. Just print it and slap it on a sign is all they paid for. I just made them look nice. They don't need to know that process.

    Thank you very much for this you make a lot of great points.

    Haha I hate grammar :/ that’s why I design.
  11. Fun Situation.

    You can just do good things to do good things without someone expecting even more from you for free... What a headache. Also if anyone has any suggestions on some verbiage I can possibly put on my website to or on my invoices that will detour this from happening again. I am all ears! Some type...

    So my concern is they are trying to threaten me with legal action, hence asking for my address to send a certified demand letter to hand over the artwork. When no artwork was charged on any of the invoices just signs/materials. Is this something they can try to force a small business to hand...
  13. Fun Situation.

    So we did a pretty big job last year printing for a local nonprofit. We did around $8400 in signs and banners. Well this is for a yearly ice rink and they have sponsors each year so we did all the sponsor signs and decals. Well we moved out of California to Texas this year but we do ship all...

    I will take a look. Thank you!
  17. Hope this is not a dumb question...

    It's a grey area, Yes I design logos and artwork for the customer but usually don't charge. But if a customer asks me to create them a business logo then yes I do give them full rights to that logo. Its when you design other stuff around that logo do you give them the rights to that as well...
  18. Hope this is not a dumb question...

    So I get asked this by my clients all the time. Hey PS can you send me a copy of that logo you designed for me? or Can you send me the artwork I need for another project I'm working on? How do you guys deal with questions like these? I personally do a lot of design work for customers and go...
