When Getting Artwork Done...

[ejukated_ent]

What files should the client normally receive from the designer? i.e. JPG or BMP files? Photoshop files? I'm about to start getting some artwork and I'd like to know what designers are accustomed to providing. Thanks.

what are you getting done

they should be able to provide you with what every you ask for

say your getting a CD package done up

I send .TIF files to get printed and I provide the client with web-ready images

and if they want it in any other format they have to ask
if they want it saved as a PSD I always flatten my image

cd artwork,2-panel mixtape artwork, and logo design

 

[tosin]

logo should be an eps file...

cd/insert artwork can be a jpg, tif or even a pdf...just depends on what the printer prefers...

To the client I normally send the original layers along with both an EPS and a TIF. JPG & PDF isn't really a good idea IMO.

and if someone trys to send you a "opp" or "nwa",...or even an epa


.dont send money!!!!

fucker i thought u were serious for a min...

 

[SLOWPOKE]

hahahahha just trying to help a playa out!!!!!!!!

 

[underground]

i will provide them with a .psd but i flatten the image as well...

 

[ejukated_ent]

what is flatening the image?

ALSO>>>how do people convert shit into good quality jpg. i convert BMP into JPG and then it comes out blurry...i.e. my avatar

 

[SLOWPOKE]

when you have a psd and i dont mean the cutthrot comitty player but the file
it is in many layers and when you take them to be printed ,...they will flip and move and what not so flatening them is like,....

making it a soild image so it comes out the way it looks on your monitor,....the first flyer i and tee i made i had no idea about this,...but the printer was kind e nuff to lace me with the game to make my images come out the way it looks online ,....


and for that.....are u using ms paint for that?....or what?

 

[ejukated_ent]

ooooh good lookin on the flatenning game. yea im using a real cheap ulead software. how can i blow up an image and keep it clear? is it all in the software? i assume yes.

 

[ejukated_ent]

lol...psd the drivah went to the printer and came back flipped around cause i forgot to flatten him? ok ok...got it btw what flyer you have printed?

 

[SLOWPOKE]

that's what i'm here for,...

think of it like beer,.....the more you put water in it,...the less it is effective,...if you need a poster?or flyer and you have a web image,....forget it,...you gonna need the printed copy scan it at a high dpi and like keep it like yeeeeeeeeee


and then you have to yodell back cause i'm a thug and you aint then the bay is back but sac aint not no dam bay and chit,....
