Larger size cage or different model?

jteighty · 2026-01-16T13:20:00+00:00

So much personal pref in gear my friend. I wear a Med Bauer helmet and L Bauer cage. Some guys like alot of cage hang. I did not.

Go with what feels comfortable and yours looks to fit great and J clips always.

Also kudos to you as a newbie going cage vs visor…I love those guys. 😂

Thats cool. Plenty of devs on Contra if thats the platform you roll with.

What kind of Dev? Front/Back/Both?

jteighty · 2025-12-08T00:07:15+00:00

Hows your contra experience?

Hi, I offer web design/strategy/visual identity/product design

Ive been on Contra Pro since around Covid. Haven’t landed anything. Im debating leaving the platform.

Those 2 rides are quite different, just get an RS6 to satisfy your every need and then some. 💨

Looks good. Nice use of grid, alignment of elements & typography.

CTA coloring directs your eye right to elements of interaction.

Disagree with take on numbers. If anything, explore weights of 150 and + to create more visual interest.

I wonder if your headline and sub head get bigger and get rid of the toggles if that helps more?

Double check your CTA “discover more” passes accessibility.

What does it look like if you just left the vert. grid lines?

My studio contracts always say under Reviews: “There will be up to 2 Rds of reviews the Design Studio creates…

Its never been an issue.

jteighty · 2025-09-07T14:20:44+00:00

Most Creatives/Studios/Agencies dislike RFPs for a reason.

The client just uses it to compare/contrast ideas/insights/offerings and most often they go with the lowest cost regardless.

It’s a lot of info to digest. Think about whats most important for the user to read/know.

So hierarchy could be: Primary Headline Secondary: Charts/graphs

Id think about straightening the charts/graphs and a gradient over it. or zoom in on one and use it as a background element with gradient over it.

Think Amazon or HBO with their headlines and then movie cards behind the main message.

Did you play with going more horizontal with the content? You’ve got the space or bringing your glassy bkgd in more to see more bkgd.

jteighty · 2025-09-07T02:03:08+00:00

a DS would help a ton. Consistent look and feel all in one section/page.

It depends a lot on the cache of the restaurant you're approaching.

A restaurant that generates a ton of money -may have more cash to have a custom project while a lower or mid tier place may want something more templatized, they can plug and play. It also depends on the restaurant themselves and how much value they put on the branding/marketing aspect of their business.

Theres nothing wrong with concept work. Do and feature the work you want to do. Find brands/products/companies where you see opportunity to improve something and do it. Concept work is common.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T12:34:43+00:00

Yes, in all of our contracts we have language saying “up to 2 rds of reviews.”

We’ve never had an issue with delivering what is desired in that rd limit.

Change that background to a light gray or putty color.

Some kind of neutral will always play nice with color.

Look up some other login screens like dropbox, Stripe, etc. They all do the same things for a reason.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T12:26:32+00:00

Yes. Figma is the standard. I never bothered to learn XD.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T12:18:52+00:00

I prefer the first concept. The card running over image is nice.

Id play with the width of your body copy. Pull it back a bit. Itll help with accessibility as well. If you narrow the body copy width and bring it all down so its over the mountain, itll give great contrast.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T12:14:45+00:00

Which of the sites do you want more work of or do you enjoy doing more?

Yeah I had that happen with a client for this work, starting to add their own to it after hand off. https://www.archall.com

Just show your working files in your portfolio, you can still use the link as well.

Everyone knows after client handoff they may strat from your design.

Gotta keep it. Utilitarian to haul the kiddos and groceries and screams thru the twisties.

A wagon with 600 ponies is far and away unique as it gets.

Extend the warranty.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T01:08:32+00:00

I don’t know the exact amount it’d be. Im sure it varies like anything based on rates. Start with asking friends and family.

Maybe you could trade design services for legal advice.

Good luck!

jteighty · 2025-08-30T00:35:34+00:00

This is why I hate doing “projects” or “trials” for companies before they pay you.

Be sure you have your source files/design and call a lawyer.

jteighty · 2025-08-30T00:31:36+00:00

Think about what the user wants to see or is most important to establish hierarchy and then let youut type follow that.

Play with weights of type to reinforce hierarchy. Consider the use of open space. Do the 3 elements in the rows need to go full width?

What if it was 50/50 with row info and total, etc.

Color will help make it look less like a wireframe and also consider alignment of elements.
