Aaron636r 0 Posted October 12, 2009 I hire a guy to create a postcards size flyer for my vinyl business. I could have come up with something decent but I figured this is one thing I want to look great. Plan on printing and mailing about 5000 of them. So, I hire this guy who sounds like he knows what hes doing. He send me back the first example and I about died. He grabbed a cheesy back ground image and copied word for word my info I wanted in the flyer (even my spelling error). I wasn't paying the guy a fortune...but I was paying him a decent amount. Seems there are too many "designers" out there... Sorry, had to rant and rave for a minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NukleoN 34 Posted October 12, 2009 Hire a real artist! My work is good, reasonably-priced and I have 20 years as an artist in the video-game biz under my belt. www.monstahfish.com is my decal site (most designed by me) and my art can be found at: www.nukleon.com/art If you're paying for custom-work that's what you should be getting!

Stickin' with it. How did he end up going with that guy? Did you turn the work down? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NukleoN 34 Posted October 14, 2009 The 450-dollar logo needs work too..that small text is getting lost. I'd probably just add a white background with border behind it...would make the small letters pop. Easy fix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
