i simply do not agree, surely you must be talking about another site?
i have never ever saw any bad spelling on this site. :tongue: -
And how many times did you have to correct that Robert 😀

why do you think we had a spell checker added to the system? 😳

Spelling mistakes are just another way of showing creativity
Thats my excuse and i’m sticking to it……

LJ, are you sure mate, im sure we had it updated and i had it altered to english. even if american, its gotta reduce many of my mistakes 😳 :lol1:

on a different note, can we keep this thread going but add commonly used sign words… that way i can add to the dictionary.
i.e. Spandecks, rinobond, macktack :lol1:

there are quite a few words which the dictionary picks up such as colour, i just ignore them as i know mine is right as the dics replacements don’t look right. as i come across them i will add to this thread.

Nearly as good as the spellchecker in Flexi!
Mind you I am a fine one to talk – cocked up an ali pan, fret cut and backed up with 12″ stainless steel letters last year all for one letter……
Was there one “g” or two in oh bu*#er it?

I have another form of dyslexia.
A couple of days ago we did a van which read (In three lines)
National
Printing
InkI was halfway through the second side when Alison berated me for my stupidity. I had put the lettering on in the wrong order and hadn’t even noticed. The side of the van read:-
Ink
National
PrintingIf it hadn’t been for Alison I would have given it back to the customer this way 😳

A local competitor recently fitted a sign on a restaurant which reads: “Traditional and Contemporay Cuisine”. It’s been up about 6 months and I think I’m the only one who has noticed it! Half of the country can’t bloody spell nowadays, so it seems any illiterate fool can make signs for a living.

When designing the graphics fo a van about a year ago, the client hadn’t decided on his web address yet.
so, to get on with the layout I put http://www.blablabla.com and carried on with the design.
A couple of days later he call with his web address and I and I changed it on the sides of the van but for some reason forgot about the back.
We cut it, weeded it, applicated it and applied it without noticing.
He noticed 😳

Don’t think of it as spelling mistakes but as creative writing.
