kburk 2 Posted September 12, 2008 Ok so the real reason I picked up the cutter was I need new signs for my trucks and trailers. See I'm a general contractor and have 3 work trucks, 4 trailers,an excavator and skid steer. So I was looking to make a graphic/sign to work for all my stuff. Something simple that people can read from a distance. But it really does not look so good. I think if I just play with the colors it would be better but??? Any suggestions.

Mr Peabody 0 Posted September 14, 2008 The black on the yellow will stand out - I'm not sure about the white though. You might want to capitalize the C in contracting and the I in inc. Maybe drop the "Phone:" and just leave the numbers Make the "Maple Ridge B.C." a little smaller and add what services you provide. Do you have a website? or Email address? Just some thoughts.

kburk 2 Posted September 15, 2008 Thanks for that I was starting to think no one was going to say bo! I was thinking about Droping the Yellow back ground and just doing it all in Black on my White truck I just don't want to loose the sign. I'm really not happey with it I think I will just come up with a different look. :- Good point about the phone and the C,I thanks Keith Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kburk 2 Posted September 20, 2008 Ok so I went in a bit of a different direction with the sign. What do you think? and I have a few questions. 1) I took the shape and duplicated it then manipulated it but I can't figure out how to cut the yellow wisp of the top. it would be cutting part of the shape off. 2) I would like to make the contracting like the de sol in color but split at the a so the a is half yellow and half black. If some could suggest how to do these things that would be super thanks a bunch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kburk 2 Posted September 20, 2008 Ok so this is what I have now but I would like to split the a so 1/2 is yellow and 1/2 is black. Anyone?? I will just print 2 a's if I have to but I would like to just do it in one shot. thanks Keith desol logo.svg desol logo.svg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
