Pantone convert Oct 3, 08, 2:39 a.m.

So. I have long pondered on this and was wondering how you people would attack it.

If you have only been supplied a Pantone reference for a corporate colour and wish to convert it to CMYK, do you:

a) let the software do it, i.e convert on the fly through Illy/Indesign
b) Pick up your Color Bridge Pantone book and use those values? They always seem to be different.

Thanks

I have a group of objects that I need to step and repeat around an offset centre point 40° at a time.

Would anyone know how this is done.

Transform > Rotate - does not duplicate it or work around an offset point.

Any help would be great

MS Publisher > PDF Sep 25, 08, 7:35 a.m.

I have never used this program and I have no idea of its functionality or even what it looks like.

But
Is it possible to save out files as PDF without the full version of Acrobat. Or convert the files to a universal format that everyone can read?

Thanks

QBN Newsletter Sep 24, 08, 2:19 a.m.

Ok, Whilst I do not mind receiving this I would only expect it to be sent to the email address I use for this website.

As it happens I got tthis newsletter to 2 other email accounts, one being my freelance account and the other was to an agency email that I have never posted here.

How did they get it and surely this is conducsive to unsolicited email i.e spam (to my other accounts)

hotmail accounts Sep 23, 08, 2:44 p.m.

Every time I email someone with a hotmail account it bounces back to me.

This has only started today.

Is hotmail seeing my email address as spam?

Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks

Using Flickr Photographers Sep 5, 08, 7:03 a.m.

So If I search on Flickr for an image and find the perfect one do Flickr hold any rights over that image as it is on their site.

Could I just contact the photographer and say "how much for xxxxx image?" or would flickr have an issue.

Also has anyone ever been contacted by a person wanting to use there image and how much would someone charge?

Butchered? Sep 4, 08, 2:18 a.m.

I was checking back on some of my first ever projects as a designer this morning (online), see if my work was still there.

One of my first Branding projects in an agency was for a PR company. I designed quite a tidy site for them back in the day.

Upon return (5 years later) the have managed to completely change it and frankly butcher and transform the fuck out of it:

Have you checked back on any projects recently that have been butchered?
