Fast Signs

Had five banners made for a fundraiser less than 24 hours away. They did an absolutely amazing and it was a surprisingly painless experience. I say painless because the past three weeks have included countless trips to other copy centers in the Capital Region, none of which could produce quality banners. Same files were sent to Fast Signs and they got the job done. Like feeding candy to a baby.

I had a couple sings made to be put on the side of the road. They were half the price of the competition, and the service rep was quick to get back to me and friendly every time we talked. When I went to pick them up she even showed me the printer (I’m in to that kind of thing)
Fast Signs is a franchise, and pretty well done. It’s a great service for small business and like their name pretty quick turnover. Two colorful 2’x3’ signs were less than $ 90
The hard part is deciding what to put on your sign. I’m a novice at designing things, but I like doing it. The sign I made is kind of ugly, but highly visible to traffic. Looking at it from the window I realize it’s not just the words you say, but their context.
«No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;»
So say John Dunn. It’s the same with a sign. We perceive things in relation to ourselves and environment. Effective communication from visual media requires understanding relationships of color and shape.
