looks fine to me Marcella, just needs a space after the code Nos, change the copperplate to one very similar without the little points on to make it easier to weed & bob’s your uncle….done, dead easy, what more do you want? 😳

:lol1: shame about the rest though eh!

Marcella that’s nothing – look what I’ve got to work on from a customer’s "artwork". It’s not even a rough draft – this is what she has on her advertising flyers!

Nowadays. I just do as they have asked and move onto the next job.

I used to worry about whether or not the layout was a good one or not, but you can waste an awful lot of time trying to persuade someone to do something different. Often they just want it their way because they want to be able to say they "designed it". Time is money so just do it and move on. Save your design skills for someone who will listen and appreciate your input. Many a time I have "improved" someones basic idea only to have them revert back to "their original idea. Oh yes, and make sure all the lettering is a large as possible 😕

[Marcella Ross]

You’re right Phill …………… but there’s no job satisfaction at all is there.

Dawn – what the hell is that supposed to be? 😮

[John & Dawn Roddick]

I’ve no idea what it’s meant to be- she is a mobile complementary therapist. Does that mean she drives around telling people they look nice, to make them feel better??? :lol1:

[Ian Johnston]

Always a pain when they think they know what they want. (:) (:)
this was only a quick play about but may work.
i find the key to getting round them is give them the obvious bits that they want, and then change the bits they wont notice .
i.e the small writing that is a pain to weed.
hope you like

Ian

is it me, or does that look like a drawing of a stomach, colon and …erm… a mint fresh result, drawn on a restaurant napkin?:P

Marcella, I think Phill has hit it on the head. Keep it basic as the guy would not appreciate anything better anyway.

I do have a problem with the flame, it looks to much like a copy of british gas? or whoever are using it just now.

Isn’t it funny how they all think alike?

British Gas has a lot to answer to. 😀

[Marcella Ross]

They do all think alike …………… they all want a big flame!
I’ve given the customer a slight variation on his design ………… in other words I’ve ditched the copperplate and ditched all the little flames too!

We’ll see what he says ……………….. 😕

[George Elsmore]

i cant see what was wrong with the design in the first place Marcie its got all your hallmarks :lol1: :lol1:
