    Re: The fatal error of a graphic designer

    What a trip, I just flew in to New Orleans today for a conference and I'm doing graphic design/technical support for the company.

    I'll be sure to spell check everything!!

          Re: The fatal error of a graphic designer

          i've had errors in my work too. I make magazines on a daily base, some in two languages and once i placed a french ad in the dutch version. It was proofread by the person in charge (account manager), sent to the printer and printed. The person in charge did visit the printer to give an OK on the first printed examples (looking if the colors we're like the colorproofs). After 3 hours (+/- 55000 sheets of paper printed) he noticed the french ad. Meaning 55000 sheets for the bin, make new plates, reprint = 1000$ for the new plates + 1000$ wait times penalty for the press that was stopped and new paper. Creditnota was around 5000$. Boss was really angry, yelled at me and the account manager for about 15 mins and didn't speak to us for a week. I was nervous but mistakes happen. Nothing else happened.

          Since then i never ever sent anything to the printer without a signature + OK stamp of the client/person in charge. Hah !
          God made me funky and i am glad he made me that way !

              You're a designer man, nobody expects you to spell check. Visual people see copy as lines and blocks.

              I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

                  you're lucky, around my parts, it lasts years and is no more than a hiccup away from putting you through a vomit inducing deepthroat.
