  • Posted to What's the worst graphic design mistake you've made that got printed?, Mar 13, 2020

    TL;DR: Put the wrong URL on a bunch of prints, fixed it with a rush order of stickers.

    Similar to the first mistake OP mentioned, mine is along the lines of a typo. The company I worked for was launching an online community for their customers. We were throwing a big launch celebration event to get customers registered on the site. Many of the print pieces included the url which was a subdomain of our primary website. Instead of putting "community.ourdomain.com", I put "ourdomain.community.com"... which ofcourse makes a big difference.

    We had already spent so much on printing the typo (brochures, coasters, posters, etc), and it was the morning of the event.. so we ended up rush ordering a bunch of stickers with the correct URL that were perfectly sized to cover each URL.

    I stayed late covering all of the hundreds (thousands?) of wrongly printed URLs.

    Edit: Fortunately, none of the larger prints had the incorrect URL

    Yesterday I was in the middle of replying to this comment when I checked my email and saw that Tobias had already emailed me based on the comment I left above, he helped me out big time! Not only is it a great product, but they obviously have great service as well! ... does that make me a fanboy? whatever, dont care!

    Never realized that v4 came out.. and a little salty because my purchase was literally a week before April 1.

    Hey Dima, still having some issues. I'm not so worried about adding my domain. I was just trying help test your new project. It's possible that my twitter handle is throwing an error because it includes an underscore. ( @JonLehman_ ).. sucky handle I know.. I've been wanting to change it forever. Anway, just thinking that may be the issue?

    I know that you have mentioned that the site is still under development, just wanted to note that I tried to submit a domain I own ( css.style ) but the form keeps throwing an error on my twitter handle. (I tried with and without the "@")

    haha yeah, when I tried to reload it, I lost it. After a couple attempts using a proxy I got the newer version. Here's a screenshot

    Is Zune considered dead if you can still use the first gen to keep your car from rolling when parked on a hill?

    The site is awesome, love the illustrations and "Submit Autopsy Report"

    Oh wait! no joke, I opened it up in an incognito/private tab and now I see the newer illustrations (looks nice). I stand corrected.

    Yeah, I believe you're right. I don't notice anything different since this thread New Slack Homepage was made regarding the same changes 7 months ago.
