I like the leaflet. Good colours, it'll definitely draw the eye. What stock are you printing it on?

[Pugsley]

not sure yet. Probably Revive 50/50 offset or maybe a revive silk if i can if we've got some stock through the back.. 2500 to be printed so need to make sure its looks the mutts nuts.

Thanks, the colour scheme is on everything i've done for the past 4 months for the degree show as my placement for university. Everywhere i look i see yellow and black.

I'll get photos of everything else up soon. Only got the invitations on my portfolio just now.

Hey these 2 are keeping you on your toes, may be too late, but I aint seen you fix DoGooder’s points you still have 2 “I” hanging at the end of the lines, 1 in yours and 1 in Michael’s quote.

and still double spaces in the quotes after full stops.

anyways, good work!

[Pugsley]

cheers badaboom for pointing that out and for your comments.
Sorted now. Latest version attached. Took off the in between ones to get rid of confusion.

[Pugsley]

do you think this would be nicer on a silk or an uncoated?

[Anxious]

I would go for uncoated, I think the yellow would look quite nice without the shinyness. Mind you, I'm just learning about paper. Do Gooder is the man for that.

[Pugsley]

DO GOODER!! get your butt back here. I'm learning as well. Got a box full of paper swatches and freebies from the reps under my desk.
I like the feel of uncoated (the public invites were printed on uncoated) but i'm thinking cause there is photos it might help bring out the colour in the photos a bit. The design section of the Degree show book was printed on a silk stock and it should look quite good. fook knows. Too many choices.

[Rik]

need to do work sometimes

it's subjective.

I like the feel of decent thick uncoated stock for most things. It tones down images... but i like that.

but the next man will like his glossy gloss gloss.

if possible try to keep the stock consistent through the job.. good for the portfolio that way.

Haha! That's just what I'm like here. I've been bombarded with free paper samples from printing companies since our regular printers went bust and we're now 'fair game' again.

If you're worried about the quality of the pictures, why don't you go for matt?

[Pugsley]

Not sure if we have a matt in stock. I'll have a looky once i've had my afternoon coffee and a muffin and a biscuit.

Goody, I've pretty much got an even split of stocks throughout the project. VIP was on silk public was on uncoated,
Design section of the book was on silk, fine art section was on uncoated. Posters were on silk so doesn't really matter about keeping it the same.

It's be out the Revive range though as its at least 50% recycled and i like the warm feeling i get when i use it.

[Rik]

we use revive for a lot of stuff. it's made in scotland! (apart from the cheap stock that is from emils neck of the woods)

[Pugsley]

Never knew that now. Cool. Yeah this place tries to use recycled if they can. Quite good.

You heard about the new recycling service from robert horne. They come and collect you waste paper and make into paper which they deliver back to you. Quite clever. Apparently you could use the same sheet up to 7 times before it has to be come cardboard.

[Coops]

Print it on 100gsm gloss.

[Pugsley]

She wants it on the same kind of stock as the other invites and they were on 280-300gsm. 100gsm is a bit flimsy is it nae coopsy?

[badaboom]

100gsm gloss, me thinks he’s taking the piss!

[Pugsley]

you never know with coops. He's got a hairy face.
