[quote who="Snowman" reply="6" id="3438808"] Quoting doortech1, reply 5 Snowman seems to think the current skinners are lacking... Not lacking, more unimaginative. Some skins/skinners do break the stride, but basically most skins are just "boxes" with varying color combos. I admit that I am a massive oldschool skinosaur, and yes I miss the good old days where almost all skins submitted were different from the previous ones. I've never understood

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="87" id="3442820"] Ken and syd, thanks. From the heart. I used supposedly free clip art via Google image search for free clip art. I didn't bother examining all the TOU's because the images are partially covered, and no one's using them for commercial gain. I do want that clear. While the collage is my work, the images themselves are not. I only did this to help you crystallize ideas and to encourage folks to play with graphics and Photos

And...you didn't tell me your thoughts regarding the word 'Rapid' in the sign. If you want it to stand out more, not a problem. I'll just add an adjustment layer. I would say leave it out, I think it is to many R words. I like the second color better too. Are you able to add a drop shadow to the letters so they will stand out more? I think the light colors blend in with the background so perhaps a black drop shadow would help. Thanks Doc. I know you are wo

I don't know people. I think some of you make sense but lets face it, the Olympics is hardly the only event one can find fault with. I can list a page full of stuff that happens far more often then once every 4 years. This is somewhat different but as an example as much as I enjoy our national sport hockey I don't agree with the salary's the players make. I mean is anyone really worth multi million dollar contracts for playing a sport a few months out of the ye

Something I just thought of Doc, What if you made the sign more wide? If I get magnetic sign it would probably be wider anyway. Maybe the longer names would not look as bad. Or I can just change it to something else which I have no problem doing. How come you can't delete a double post? You can only edit.

[quote who="JuniorCrooks" reply="64" id="3442718"] Thank you starkers and SS. Doc you are right. There are a lot of letters there. I thought I could abbreviate Residential but Res. won't work.

@ doortech1 those are clever. No doubt some would use those but I decided I wanted to leave Crooks out of the name. @ Doc I would like to use something with reliable in the name. How does Reliable Residential Repairs sound? Does that sound to much like what is being offered as apposed to a business name?

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="50" id="3442577"] Well...you'd want something friendly...perhaps the house/tools and background with a 'flat' type house having a 'smile' on it? I'll try doing a couple of mock ups...not in a shield design...rather as a panel magnet or letter logo...and a 'friendlier font. Better? [/quote] I like the one on the left Doc. I can see myself using that o

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="46" id="3442473"] Just concepts...[/quote] Doc those are really good. I think there is something there but my question is are they a little too cartoony to be taken serious? I am not saying they are but that I just don't know.
