  • what way should i layout this shop window?

    Posted by Michael Tremarco on 22 February 2008 at 16:51

    Hi peeps 😀
    I have got a shop window to do and I am unsure of which would be the best method to tackle the ‘swirly rainbow’ which runs across the main window and onto the double paneled door. The design is supplied by the client.
    The graphic must be on the inside of the office.
    I was thinking of reverse printing onto clear and then adding a white vinyl backing to brighten the colours and also to add the white to the graphic (can’t print white).
    This is new to me. I am usually ‘Straight Forward Sam’ when it comes to my designs so any help on how to accomplish this task would be greatly appreciated. Also, any suggestions on pricing would be welcome.
    Thanks everyone

    hm. should work… when you do your testing… print a mini one, cut it out and stick it to your own window and have a look. You might find that you may need to prints heavy layers of ink to increase the density of print, may be a bit faint.

    Thanks Dave. When you say increase the density of print, do mean go from 720 to 1440?

    Straight Forward Sam I would do it exactly as you suggested a 720 x 720 with the correct profile will be absolutely fine for that design not only that it’ll be nice
