OK sorry forget the first ones as just spoken to customer need to make the auto diagnostic centre not stand out as it looks like that all they do from distance before you can read the rest of the services

Rich, that has more bullets than Bonnie & Clyde’s car!
I’d lose most of them.
Quick demo here as I’m too busy to get into Corel

AUTO REPAIR (!) DIAGNOSTICS
ALIGNMENT (!) BRAKES
WINDSHIELDS (!) PAINTING

With the above being all centered.
Love….Jill
(I just made up the services)

CROYDON WORKSHOP SERVICES 1.jpg is better
Jill’s right about the bullets, it is all a bit bulleted!

[Phill Fenton]

Increase your margin spaces also – the lettering in all cases is too near the edges of the sign. You need proper margins to make the wording stand out even if it means reducing the overall size of all of your lettering 😀

How about something like this

You may have to play with spacings etc as done very quick.

[Richard Urquhart]

just done one like pauls i have change the text to bold on the upper text line

now on the bottom which is not spaced right yet do i make the 2 outer words line up with the aboce text and make the spacing bigger in between the bullets ? or bring the bottom line of text in a bit
i.e move clutches over to the left and shock to the right

I like that Rich and I would align it so as to be in a square like you said ,
just a thought you have your border really close to the edge will this affect your fixings?

[Martin Pearson]

Richard, you can do that if you want or just leave it like it is at the moment, as long as it is all alligned to the centre it should look OK, do it both ways and see which one you prefere.

[Paul Rollason]

I like the wording in Jills design “All Makes & Models”

Rich, can you try the bottom block of text in all caps but in a slightly bolder font? Not as bold as the top one though. I always think that multiple lines of lower case text leave awkward shaped spaces between the lines.

[Richard Urquhart]

lynn dibond tray design fixings from top ,bottom
good thought thanks

[Richard Urquhart]

how about the lower block in title case do you think this looks better????

:lol1: Lynn

[Richard Urquhart]

[Jill Marie Welsh]

…you’d think I have nothing better to do….
Here is one that I made using my A-B-C-Dsign CD by Brian the Brush.
Please excuse my kerning.
Love….Jill
PS
(is the word “to” absolutely needed?)
