like it’s going out of style

viovio and my portfolio, most likely part I

July 26, 2008 · Leave a Comment

Just before catching my ride to work this morning, I ordered my first proof from Viovio… I’m more than a little excited. Also – quick plug here – their customer service is really great. How do I know?

Well, the image on the back cover of my portfolio is only half a page… It appears to cut off, but that’s intentional. Still, I received an email only five hours after I sent the files through asking if that half image was intentional, and the order was being momentarily detained. Do you realize what this means? It means that an actual human being actually looks at the files pre-print. This is amazing news. I replied that the cover is correct and that I was incredibly impressed with their level of service. And then I asked my only nagging question:

“But why can’t I purchase a softcover 12″ x 12″?”

After all, it is the advertised size I designed the portfolio around; but when I went in to purchase my proof, the only 12″ x 12″ option I was given was for a hardcover… I don’t want a hardcover portfolio, that’s pretentious and arrogant, as far as I’m concerned.

I sent the reply email later this evening, I don’t expect they’ll get back to me until tomorrow.
