I haven't used this site in a bit and am wondering why no one has put any designs yet? Is it the deadline? the price?

[BlueCherryGraphics]

Hi,

You'll need to provide the caricature in vector format. If you don't have it in vector, you can provide high resolution JPEG or TIFF. We can't get it from the website as that will be a low res image not suitable for print.

[dlarocqu]

This is what I have for my caricature. If this isn't high res enough let me know.

[sglasgow]

Hi,:)

Could you post the high resolution vector, jpeg, or tiff of the logo as well?

Here are some first designs I have come up with. The bottom image is the proposal for the back of the postcard.
The images used are stock and thus low res for now.

Thanks,
Susan

[dlarocqu]

Here is the best resolution I can get.

[sglasgow]

The high resolution of your caricature is perfect.:D
Do you have a high res of the Swirl Solutions logo?

[dlarocqu]

Not being a graphic artist, I am not sure...please let me know.

[sglasgow]

Oh my, yes I did miss that. My apologies.:blush:

[abby]

Project Update: The project deadline has been extended to Jan 31st.

[dlarocqu]

Thanks for your design.

like the first front but no computer image and on the back I added some additional information to my original request above. I don't like the font style of the text in the middle, can you change that too?

Thanks and Happy New Year

[sglasgow]

Here are revisions. :)

Thanks,
Susan

[dlarocqu]

It looks a little too wordy, so have to rethink the back. Will post in the original again in a day. Thanks!

[dlarocqu]

Maybe some of the text can go on the front?

Ie Learn to be more productive, efficient AND save money!

The back: I have tried to use less text, can you try

I have added the changes to the text. :)

[dlarocqu]

Thanks again, that looks less 'wordy'.

Can I see a new concept from you?

[minimi]

Hi! here's my concept...I'm working on the back :yes:

Veronica

[minimi]

here is the complete postcard! :D

[dlarocqu]

Great, I like the 2nd round better, especially the back. Thanks...a few things

1. I don't want the business address on the bottom, as I train at off site.

2. there should be an s on charges

I like the first idea for the front page but if it could be in sync with the last back you did? Maybe it is the people look happier? :-)


I also have another image that could be incorporated in it if you think would work? Have attached it

[minimi]

Here are revisions! :D

[dlarocqu]

I was out of town.

Do you have some other photo's other than that guy? I don't really like that one and he is using a cell not a blackBerry. Or maybe I can't tell, can you give me a bigger version like the one above?

Thanks!

[minimi]

I´ll find another picture ! :)
I´ll submit soon !

[minimi]

here´s with another picture and in a large size.:yes:

[sglasgow]

Here are my revisions.:)

[sglasgow]

Here are the backs with a slight adjustment, I reduced the text height.

[dlarocqu]

Discussed the designs with my partner and we like both and would like to see the following changes going from top to bottom. Also, we decided to change the audience so we can use the same postcard for 2 campaigns.

1. remove the word solution
2. the same font should be for all the next section of questions
3. please add a question mark for each of the bulleted items
4. change the last bullet to say Plus many many more. (Period, no question mark here)

all the text about discounts is removed and add this

Training that meets your needs:

Corporate Workshops
Scheduled Workshops
Webinars
One on One Training
On-line Video Training

Have a spot that an affiliate id can be put in


Now we like the back side of Minimi's and the front style of Sglasgow with the big help.

Can we see some more of everyones great revisions! Almost there.

Thanks so much...

[sglasgow]

Here is with the revisions and some design changes.

[minimi]

here´s the revisions ! :D

[dlarocqu]

Thanks again for the revision, we are close...

Can I see one with the caricature to the right side?

The questions should all be in the same font and it looks like the question marks have a space before them?

remove the period after blackberry too


I don't like the guy in the picture, can you show a few different 35+ people, another man and another one with a woman?

[dlarocqu]

Thanks getting close to making a decision

On the back can I see

Can I see it without the period at the end of BlackBerry
there is a typo, should say charges with an s

Have a blank spot so the referrer can put their affiliate id

On the front

Should say BlackBerry Workshops with an S
Can I see a different font?

website be www.SwirlSolutions.com Capitalized s's

[minimi]

[sglasgow]

:D Here are the revisions.

Post 32
The front looks better, though you also changed the font for the "BlackBerry Workshops". Which I didn't want, sorry.
I just wanted the "Learn to be more productive, efficient and SAVE MONEY!" in a different font. Maybe the same font as BlackBerry Workshops

Can you remove the "and" also....

Thanks!

[dlarocqu]

The Back:

Thanks for the submission, I just noticed the caricature looks like she isn't wearing anything on the bottom. :-) Can you fix that?

The "are your data...." sentence ---can I see it in the same font as the others

That photo of the girl still if off. The audience is 35+ so would like an older woman if possible?

Thanks will decide soon!

[minimi]

:)

[sglasgow]

Here are the changes.:)

[dlarocqu]

I can't believe I just noticed I didn't put phone or email. Yikes
info@swirlsolutions.com | 604.628.0284

wherever you creatively can put it!

Thanks everyone for being so prompt!

[sglasgow]

:)

[minimi]

:)

[dlarocqu]

I still think the skirt is too short, can you make it longer? Thanks! I just don't want clients to get the 'wrong' idea. :-)

[sglasgow]

Certainly!:)
I have made the skirt longer.

[minimi]

Yeah! it´s better if is longer :yes:

[dlarocqu]

Thank you everyone for all your designs. We have chosen sglasgow for our postcards.

It was a really tough decision.

[sglasgow]

Thank you!! :D
What final revisions would you like? :)

[dlarocqu]

post 41 and can you make full value and blackberry words bold?
number 36 front 1.

Thanks..

[BlueCherryGraphics]

Thanks!

[sglasgow]

The final files are almost ready.
On the front (#32 front 1, did you still want the font that I used for "Blackberry Workshops" in that front's version or did you want the font I originally used?
Lastly, do you have a higher resolution image of the Blackberry with the "Help" sticky note; at least 300 dpi.
Thanks.:D

Below are the front and back with full bleed:

No I don't like the "BlackBerry workshops" font in this one, please use the original.

I can't seem to find the high res of the help jpg. I have asked the original designer to see if she kept it. Is is "really" important, in case I have to pay for it again?

[sglasgow]

Hello Darci,

I apologize, I thought we were waiting on the original higher res image of the blackberry phone. Yes, it has to be 300dpi, otherwise it is very pixilated.
I had looked through stock images on various sites, and that image is not there.

I have changed the font for “Blackberry Workshops” back to the original.

Thank you,
Susan

[sglasgow]

Here are the final files! :D

Hi Susan, glad I finally found the good jpg!

I just notice small grammatical errors

1. can you change info@swirlsolutions.com to be consistent and say info@SwirlSolutions.com
2. can you put a comma after productive

[sglasgow]

I have added those typo corrections. :)

The final files are at the same link:

Let me know if there is anything else.
