    Contractor fitted this for me, but the base frame was a bit wonky so it has some creases 😕 , It is advertising at the top of an AFL scoreboard.

    The girl is from istockphoto….

    Trying to encourage the client to change his advertising but his ‘advisers’ don’t see any value in personalising it with a human face.

    They scrapped the girl in the last sign I did yesterday.

    Thanks John, took a lot of convincing the client that all the little text he wanted to put on would be way too busy and unreadable from a distance.

    The text he wanted worked out to be about 2" high, totally useless unless you were in front,. This is 6m in the air, so I tried to steer him away from his ideas.

    Not sure he was convinced because his next sign in a bus terminal is full of text again. I’m not going to argue this time, I’ll do it and let him work it out himself.

    The customer is always right even when he is wrong.
    Shane your doing the right thing, let the tosspot find out the expensive way.

    I love the MARKER font but always put a slight slant on it as it looks tons better that way.
