"Can we use qwerk file?"
Hehe... who remembers good ol' Quark? Poor Qwerk... er Quark. Adobe kicked your ass.
I sent a file titled "[Client]poster_24x36.jpg"
"hey Sarah, what are the dimensions of this poster board? the printer is asking me and I have no idea!"
Well, it's 24 x 36. Says it right there in the file name. Also says it in the graphic request that YOU filled out.
"Then can we do like a star burst ***Wearing a little black dress gets you entered in to our diamond giveaway!** Add another star burst somewhere else on the flyer **hottest black dress of the night wins a free bottle of liquor"**"
Man, what a great idea. Starbursts make everything better!
"Something is wrong with the Twitter background you designed. Fix, please."
Um, well, it would be nice if Twitter wasn't blocked. Then maybe I could design it correctly.
"I was just going to photoshop it in myself or something."
Oh God, no.
While designing a drink features menu, I noticed that brand names (such as Sprite and Tang) were not capitalized in the copy, so I capped them and sent along for proofing. Apparently that's the wrong thing to do...
"People will realize that booze is capitalized and everything else is not. That’s how we do our bev. Menus."
First: I remember Quark! We used it in my first three newspaper jobs. :) Aw, Quark.
ReplyDeleteSecond: Love the "in to" as two words in that starburst item. Nice.
Lastly: Pretty sure Sprite and Tang have branding standards and won't care how those guys "do their beverage menus." People are weird!
Love the excited dog, and love these posts. :)
I love the, "bev. Menu" one.
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
Agree with W.P. - LOVE these posts.
(P.S. If you and Written Permission knew each other in real life - you'd get along well. Trust me. WAIT A MINUTE. Did you both meet when you were in Toledo at my Aunt's house meeting Lila for the first time???)
Ky - Um... maybe? If so, I'm pretty sure she wasn't introduced as Written Permission. ;) Teehee.
