brilliant guys..

thats 11.88 inches x 8.4 inches?

im doing some mock-ups just now for the next sign mags pages covering the site. im using photoshop at the mo and it only allows the sizes to be entered in inches, cm, pixals etc no mm..
i think the size i gave should be correct.. knowing me ill have it wrong.. 😳 😉

oh yeh.. now when stuff is posted on the site it “may” end up in the mags..
SO NO SWEARING PLEASE 😆 😆 😆 😉

certainly did sir! thats why we will pay £3000 for every image submitted to the mags. when we approached alan for his demos, he would not speak to us.. we had to go through his agents. in the end he settled for £10 grand each.. a snip, we thought.. sign joe wanted £20 grand for his app tape dispencer.. i said we would have to think about it joe.. ever since you were caught in that hotel with 6 blondes, you havent been so popular in the public eye.. he told me were to go and slammed the phone down.. 😉 😆 😆

Robert, can I expect the limo service when I submit a demo then? 😉 No need to supply booze, cigars or anything like that, I have a ready-supply in the Rolls 😀

quote Robert Lambie:

Well thanks for letting the cat out the bag Rob.
I knew nothing about this settlement, flaming agents 👿 (:) (:)
I’m going to have to sue the Bs. I’ve not seen a penny of that money.
