I have a wedding shop to make a sign for. The customer ask me to put a picture of a Bride, Ring Boy, Flower Girl, and Brides Maid. And said she could supply the artwork to avoid a extra charge.

Well I got it today,

But it may come back to bite me in the butt too.

Looks like two lezbians getting married - or two Amazon sized chicks - or a dwarf couple...hard to tell which.

Make sure you tell them there's a charge for stupidity....hehehehe.

Just to make matters even worse, judging by the keyboard keys there it looks just a little larger than a business card.

NICE!! [Big Grin]

Just remember, you do it exactly like that and somebody says to her "Your sign looks like crap, who did it?" she's going to blame the whole thing on you.

The bride must have forgotten her deodorant. See how far away everyone is standing? The groom didn't even fit in the frame.

I figured that the groom and the best man were still passed out from the bachelor party the night before.

So, does she *only* cater to people without faces???

Now, THAT is what I call a blank stare.

Talk about looking in someone's eyes & seeing the back of their head, don't even need to look in their eyes.

This really should have been a "caption this" pict. [Rolling On The Floor]

Explain that she has 3 options. 1 Pay you to do an EFFECTIVE graphic instead of the 1 she provided, 2 skip the graphic altogether or 3 go elsewhere where someone will take her money & give her whatever she wants, as ineffective as it may be. (Customers are more receptive to the term "ineffective" than to "nasty"). I'm 110% for giving the customer what they want after explaining the better route for them, but that is just utter crap. Ain't no way I could, in good conscious, use that on a sign.

I know I've seen that face before, looks exactly like the girl a buddy of mine almost married, till he found out she needed a two bedroom apartment, one for him and one for her. She was serious too. Must be that's why they never got hitched. Seriously, I would politetly tell the customer to go down the street, someone there could do more justice to the handsome couple!
