pcgd Posted February 28, 2005 Author Share Posted February 28, 2005 Because of the board being down, this event's deadline will be extended. We'll let you know tomorrow and hopefully the shady used car's salesman has his act together and will get some stuff posted for you guys. What a terrible client eh?

paynomind Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Maggots! Correspondence from the client!!!Hey guys, Pat Cummings here... sorry I didn?t get you guys the images earlier.. its been busy here. We had our annual "Circus Sale" and clowns made a mess of the place.I can't seem to find the images that you need, but I think these will do.Here is the Nissan logo-I wanted to give you our dealership's logo, but I can't find a good image of it, so I made one for you. I don?t really know these fancy drawing programs much, but I think it turned out really well. Maybe I can do the next banner.I really need this Sunday. Like, before noon. I was supposed to get it to the web guys at Maxim by the 1st of March, but before the next week of sales is an absolute. So, if you can rush it, that would be great. Thanks!OK, you heard the client, men. Get to work! Clients aren?t always easy to deal with, so do what you can with him. And get your entries in on time! NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ!

andrewharrington Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 I've found a discrepancy that should definitely be considered. I created a banner to fit the template, but the space on the template is only 404 x 88, not 500 x 100 or even the same proportion. Is it acceptable if the banner is the actual 404 x 88 that fits the template instead of the requested 500 x 100? I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynomind Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Well done.... We will contact the client and see what he says. NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ!

CC97 Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Well done.... We will contact the client and see what he says.

pcgd Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 I believe the client accidently resized the template. He's sorry for the error.please produce it at 100 x 500 and leave the template as is. btw...no annimated gifs. We considered allowing flash and such but to make it easier to post them, we wanted to keep everything in the same format.This event was boring...I think you guys will like the next couple I'm also sorry at my lack of involvment so far. The last couple weeks I've been extremly busy with work and some other things. So to Sargent Francis, my deepest appologies. It will improve.

andrewharrington Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 I answered it for him, and already sent it in at 404 x 88! Ha!EDIT - Oops.

pcgd Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 Dudes, Pat cummings here. I was searching the internet and I found this AWESOME logo for Nissan I'd rather use. Could you swap it out? It'd be really easy. And it'd only take you 10 mins so you won't have to charge me anything else. I can't wait to see it. Litterally, I need it!!!!!
