I am pretty sure it's just rinky dink like that, no fix except workarounds

Interestin goff-topic: theguardian.com/world/2013/jul/31/…

it must have taken them a LONG time to confirm all this info

@StackExchange ??

I added more feeds to the ticker

oh

Jin's blog just now (SE's designer)

@Yisela Ive got to design a design to post on behance, lol

something in particular or anything?

just trying to better display my work

your last logo was excellent, you should make another one!

I have 5 sites designed. Working on the branding right now

well home pages designed

that's great

so full design except for branding?

yes

or I should say in 978

you should definitely work on the branding then :P

two still need iPad and iPhone designs

sup @iKlsR

I haven't done much designing lately... only a small logo

not terribly inspired

@Matt_2.0 hello

why not move the heart a little above love and let it behind the logo?

@iKlsR hows your day going?

night

good idea!

I'm watching Suits and eating some melon.. in bed

make Food and Love across or better at an angle

I want melon...

I had cantaloupe =)

I think im getting tired.. I spelled Branding as Branking

sup @Dominic and @user1803405

Salut

Sorted the work issues

really?? good, did you quit?

lol no he pretty much apologised

not exactly but kinda lol

What do you guys do for a living? I pretty recently discovered the chat on gd.stack

also somewhat less recently discovered there's a whole series of stackexchange sites, not just stack overflow

@Dominic lol his dad made him

@user1803405 I design and code for a corporation.

same here. Front end design / dev.

@user1803405 welcome!

what do you do user...

hmmmmmm

anyone know of a way to force a log in remotely on Windows XP

you forget the password?

@Matt_2.0 front end web design ps/illustrator + html/css/js

anyone have and good inspirational areas for Realtor websites? all the ones I see are crap

no, I just need to make a user log in. Although I don't think I need to anymore

QuickBooks was being recalcitrant

thats your first problem. I use peachtree

heh, way too late for other options now

Is pdf the best way to give files to a printer?

yes

or .ai files, but it depends on the printer and their rip software

When they print, will they print it based on paths or just the image as it looks?

depends on the printer

I'm asking because I have some paths covered by other paths and I don't want the non visible parts printed

when in doubt ASK the printer ;)

but for quality sake its better to have all paths closed and all lines converted

Paths are closed, but what's converting lines?

illustrationinfo.com/2009/02/08/…

I say that from my vinyl days background.

@Dominic does that help?

If your printer prints non-visible parts, I'd get a new printer :P

printer could be printing vinyl =P

@Matt_2.0 I skim read it but couldn't find what you meant

*it is vinyl we're printing

this line will not print in vinyl

it must be like this:

in other wards if you go to outline and all you have are lines then it wont print in vinyl.

That is what I have :/

how do I get the block fills to show up? :/

@Dominic Object > Expand

sorry man busy

@JohnB thanks john

@JohnB thanks, it still shows up as lines in outline mode though..

@Dominic screenshot?

Sometimes you have to do a combination of Expand Appearance and Expand

I avoided live paint layers in all but one place if that matters?

normal mode:

Spoke to the printer anyway, he's going to have a look and let me know if anything needs changing

Anyone know how to get a custom URL on Google+?

At the moment it looks like they only give it to people they like

@JohnB, @JohnB, @Scott (best for last) @Yisela Does anyone know of a way to take an .indd 10 page document, adjust the size and have the content adjust with the new document size? Is there a template structure I can use? Can I do this in acrobat? Trying to help a friend so he doesnt have to manually edit all the content.

Nope, I'm not that great with InDesign

Do we take animation questions here?

I'm reviewing this:

It seems like a good question, but not for GD SE.

Also, it needs a bit of a rewrite to make it a lot clearer.

But of course I'm not going to try to improve it if it'll be closed/migrated anyway..

flash to me falls very close to video so I would probably move it to the video stack

better answers

I guess that probably makes it off topic then?

@Matt_2.0 graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/11122/… || If you have older version, you can go to Layout > Margins and columns... and check Layout adjustment. After that change you document size. ( This is very tiny tiny layer adjustment compared to Liquid layout in cs6. Layer adjustment can be a life saver, though.. ) About Layout adjustment: adobe.ly/1ct8IwT

thanks man

someone really broke something :)

@Matt_2.0 I don't trust anything but manual fitting. I'm a bit of a stickler there. Automated processes have a habit of throwing in errors which may only be caught AFTER press.

@Scott thanks

hows your day going?

busy :) thought I was going to have the day off.. but got 2 calls for rush projects today... just wrapping them up. Yours?

writing code and researching on a project ive been asked to help on. Trying to find a decent realtor site to examine to build one

good luck with that. Decent design and realtors don't mix :)

I know!

man some really crappy sites I have to say

realtors in my experience are notoriously cheap

I've gotten to the point where I simply pass on all realtor web projects. They are jsut too picky and don't want to pay

well bummer

I'd just design from scratch. Build a good site which happens to be for a realtor

Ive got an idea but the research is becoming a grueling pain I think my creativity is going to garbage based on the sites I am seeing. So much clutter

Hey! We don't need all that wasted space. Can't you put something in that spot?

no.. its I need my picture there, and there, and there

and they're ugllllllyyyyyyy

:)

oh god yes! the ones with 10lbs of makeup
