    Google Places

    Hey, I have a quick one here; are Google Places random? If not, how are they generated? For example, if I google "Graphic Design Yeovil" I get a list of businesses which also show up on maps using (a) (b) (c) etc, yet my business isn't actually part of this list, but does show up on maps...

    The Importance of Pricing Tables and Testimonies

    You do pose some good points. I posted this in the .com forum, just to see what they'd say and there's some differing arguments which I'll post below; -- 1. They say this isn't relevant - so this sentence isn't relevant. 2. Agencies don't post prices. I've not ever dealt with an agency that...

    T-Shirt printing

    It depends on the process. £8 sounds reasonable for a vinyl graphic. £14-16 sounds reasonable to screen print.

    The Importance of Pricing Tables and Testimonies

    Hello all, I am currently in the process of redeveloping the agency I run, and I wanted to get an outside opinion on some matters that I need addressing. We already have an established brand and a rather decent following, which makes my life that little bit more difficult. 1. The company has...

    Need help quoting for a website

    You quickly realise that there are very few, if any, support queries - most of them are email based questions that take less than 5 seconds to resolve. If ever there are issues with the hosting itself, you'd be notified by your supplier, and you'd just notify your client (or the other way around...

    Work In Progress: Festival Logo

    Well, that 5 minute edit time sucks. Ignore the past two pics. Try this better sized one. http://www.aglasshalf.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/AGH_GG_LOGO_A4.jpg (Fully aware of the stroke issue on the right marquee)

    Need help quoting for a website

    I can I assume that you're reselling hosting with a markup? If not, and that cost has come directly from a hosting company, you're being conned - I would highly recommend shipping around and finding a cheaper deal that you can mark up. LCN charge £60 per year for decent hosting; I then mark this...

    1970s inspired flyer

    You used the word desperation don't forget. I'm glad you said "You gotta use and explore all avenues", but you don't think he should credit a flyer. Bit of a clash of view there. And I would have to disagree with you. I personally find using social media to ask for work i.e. "Does anyone...

    1970s inspired flyer

    So there's nothing wrong with crediting at the bottom of a flyer - it's not desperate, it's a signature. Surely if anything can be described as desperate, it would be using social media to ask for work? As for "I was just pointing out that it is not something professional graphic designers...

    1970s inspired flyer

    Yeesh. You don't consider what you do art? You don't consider design art? Well, I guess that makes me, and countless others, amateur 'Photoshoppers'. Lets not get confused here. Most of us aren't working at a huge design agency - so having the opportunity to credit work is always welcomed (it...

    1970s inspired flyer

    It only makes it look tacky if it doesn't enhance the design. Do you believe that an artist signing his work is unprofessional? What's wrong with having a credit on artwork?
