Re: Brochure design
Thanks for the kind words and contstructive crits guys and gal  Your suggestions have really helped improve the brochure. Gen flipping the main image made a huge difference to the image, really helps lead the viewers eye through the layout, thanks for the freebie tips Becky I won't be using that wheelchair image on this brochure, think i'm just going to opt for a nice n easy dropped shadow. All that it needs now is to be sent off to the client for approval.
One more thing I would like some help with is how much should I charge the client? He has around 12 different chairs that all need brochures. If he goes with this design its simple to adjust the template for the rest of the chairs. Thanks Ryan |

Oh now you say Trinity! just kidding, I did think of doing that but thought the real spokes would look better. Will certainly give it a try with the next chair. Oh how life would be so much easier if they would just invent hoverchairs

Re: Brochure design
Well whatever you charge, Ryan, don't under value your work that is a really professionally produced brochure and the cilent should be happy to pay a good rate as it sells the product extremely well. As for an exact figure, I would be purely plucking figures out of the air so I'm not much help to you in that department. _________________ mad as a badger and twice as furry |

Re: Brochure design
OK, couldn't resist. I had another go at that reflection. I don't know, maybe it's starting to come together. But it would take an awful lot of work to do the job properly...  |

Re: Brochure design
Thanks Becky for the kind comments. I'm thinking that I might charge £175 for each brochure, not sure if this is the going rate though. Nice reflection on the chair Steve. I think your right about the reflections making the design more complicated, think I will give the client the option to have refections or not. Ryan |

Re: Brochure design
I think it's a real wheelchair, African. But that's a good idea - maybe we should have a go at designing our own alternative modes of transport... |

Re: Brochure design
Hi African The wheels on the wheelchair are the real thing. I`m sure it could be possible to do those wheels in Photoshop but I guess it would be very complicated to get it to look realistic. Thanks for the comments |

Re: Brochure design
Also another thing, how do you make the reflections so realistic like on tile floors or hard wood floors...i am guessing most of this is in your book steve and i hope to be getting it for christmas or before! -={African}=- |
