Very Classy - I love the colors. Posts like these inspire me to up my standards. [Big Grin]

Very nice, Don. How about you design...I build ? (OK, lets just say I'd be proud to make one with that sort of design effort)

I think I like the second one better only because it seems more visable distance-wise, but really, it is impossible to choose between them without seeing them in the envrironment of the building where they are going. Nice work, though....

Don; critique? not me !! designwork too nice...I'm impressed w/instant flair all exhibit. KUDO'S...(almost wanted to lick the crab, it looked so good) love the ding-bats on ends of striped lines...may I steal one design movement I spotted that I think is tits-la-rue? heh-heh...

Beautiful Don!

Very nice Don! [Big Grin]

My only critique might be to tone down the outlines around Crab & Ale House on the darker coloured background versions.

Posted by Amy Brown (Member # 1963) on :

Looking good Don. Have fun at the Photoshop class.

Posted by Mark Yearwood (Member # 2723) on :

I like it! I think the dark background looks and reads the best.

Very nice work, Don.

TITS-LA-RUE? [Off Topic]

Posted by Tasmus (Member # 445) on :

really great, and I agree that the environment in which they will be placed must be the deciding factor as to which version.

Hey Don,
Really nice!! [Smile]

Posted by Eric Roche (Member # 1967) on :

You Rock Don Really nice stuff. If I was to have to find something I would change would be the lack of negative space around the Steamers Copy
mostly on the freestanding version but to me Steamers would breath and pronounce itself better with some more space around it. Equal to the space you have around the secondary copy, Just my opinion. The color combos are awesome and like all have said, environment would be the deciding factor.

Perfection [Applause]

Posted by Robert Thomas (Member # 1356) on :

Very, very nice layout. I like it, I can't think of a thing I would change. [Applause]

Posted by Rick Sacks (Member # 379) on :

I'd go n there becauseof the draw ofthat sign! (pun intended)

I think this is a wonderful illustration of how light color comes forward and darks recede. The dark version easily has the lettering read first.

Cool Don. Thanks for sharing.
