Do you need someone to design the poster or to print it?

We're looking for a design. We can have it printed over here. We look at some of those posters in the monthly contest website and wish we had one!
Something cool and retro with our name on it and the name of the venue that we perform at, that we can put in the surf shops and be proud of. All surf bands have 'em over there on the mainland. Maybe something with the "Duke" on it. I don't know, we need a design. Thanks for asking.
R.

Ron,
just be real careful if you decide to borrow an image that you don't get poped for not paying for it.

Hmm. If he got "Poped", would he get to wear the fancy hat? Might be worth it!

Chong........thanks a lot for the offer. You've got GREAT stuff on your page and i'm amazed at your talent. Thing is....you "real" artists are too good for us.......by that i mean, if you made us a poster or whatever, people would just steal them for the fantastic artwork. I don't know.....! I just may take you up on the offer. Thanks again for including us on your podcast #10 and welcome to SG101. Are you still thinking about coming over here?
Aloha,
RR

Hey Ron, I really appreciate the compliment on my art and stuff. As for poster getting ripped off. Yeah, it is bitter praise. On one hand, you're stoked that somebody wants it, but bummed they aren't appreciative enough to purchase or have the integrity to leave it alone for all to see. It's kinda self defeating to create a crappy flyer/poster just so people won't swipe it. Let me know if you want to take a chance.
As for Hawaii, yup still plannin' on making the jump in spring. I don't think I will make it over in March and will more likely do it in the begining of May. I am aiming for Kauai, but may fall short and end up on Maui. The Plans are still being made and data compiled. Thanks for askin'

I just saw this old thread. Anyone out there needing a poster? That is one of the reasons I came to this site. I've done a few lately for Slacktone, The Razorblades, The Kilaueas and The WHYs.
I have samples on my site--

For surf bands my fee is low to 0, unless you are Dick Dale or anybody else with a airplane. This is a fun side project for me, I make my living doing illustrations and other less fun design work.
There is also a "temporary" site for Dave Wronski there that I've worked on with Dave but it is old now, but you can check out some of his gear there.

Thanks R-R,
I'll send you message with contact info. This has also been a great way for me to meet some cool cats and get CDs from some great bands.
Aloha
