Wow, I miss a few days and this thread goes to second page.
Ricardo... don't go trying to confuse Joe with facts.
Joe, where did I say that you should ALWAYS)))))))) use upper case. I simply stated that lower case is easier to read. GOOD sign layout uses what is best for the sign. Sometimes words with descending letters make the layout unbalanced and this is where all uppercase would benefit the sign layout. You really need to read Mastering Layout by Mike Stevens. Wait a minute, don't bother. It contradicts what you think, therefore he must be wrong. )))))))))))
Wow... haven't been called SHER-BERT since grade school. Not a spy, or FBI guy, just trying to look out for your well being Joe, obviously you don't.

Here is a little piece of information, published in SignCraft ( July/August 1999 ) , from our friend in Minnesota.....Dave Correll....... that you guys are going to love:
Shirley's new school of sign painting, in Canada...offers FREE enrollment, for those whose name start with the letter "J", who happen to live in the State of Florida......all others will pay the regular admittance fee.
Have fun, guys.
RD
P.S. --- Sorry, Shirley.......But, this is the way you can get even with those other "mean" guys, who hijacked your thread.

Joe, why do you keep showing me examples of all upper case signs? 9 out of 10 designs I do are all upper case. I originally was referring to your posts in Letterville whcih are not signs. It's your jumping around from lower to upper case in here that........
OK, I'm done. Life is too short to try to help some people.
