<dt class="wp-caption-dt"><a href="http://www.identitysignshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_0399.png" rel="wp-prettyPhoto[636]"><img class="size-full wp-image-650" title="Central Parking Sign - Pre-makeover" src="http://www.identitysignshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/IMG_0399.png" alt="" width="450" height="600" /></a></dt>

<p>Whether you go downtown Mobile for work or play (<em>or both</em>), you have more than likely seen the signage for Central Parking&#8217;s parking lots. If you have a keen eye, you may have noticed that they are prehistorically outdated and weathered. A couple of months ago, the manager of Central Parking came to us in hopes that we could resurrect these lifeless signs and save them from a slow, shameful death. Of course we were happy to take on the challenge! Check out the before and after shots to see how we gave these signs a whole new look&#8230;</p>
<div class="mceTemp mceIEcenter">
<dl id="attachment_693" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 459px;">
<dt class="wp-caption-dt"><a href="http://www.identitysignshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-02-01_10-31-33_868.jpg" rel="wp-prettyPhoto[636]"><img class="size-full wp-image-693" title="After - Central Parking Sign" src="http://www.identitysignshop.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/2012-02-01_10-31-33_868.jpg" alt="" width="449" height="600" /></a></dt>
</dl>
</div>
<p>Although some might admire the vintage look of the before signs, having an out of date or run-down looking sign can be negative for your business&#8217; image. Remember to assess your sign&#8217;s effectiveness, aesthetics and maintenance needs often.</p>
<p>The Central Parking signs are a great example of reusing the materials you have to save money, without having to purchase a whole new sign. To create a new look, we used the original aluminum signs, smoothed out the surfaces and nicks, revamped the fronts and backs with vinyl graphics and replaced the older hardware. The result: a brand new look for less.</p>
<p>For more before and after pictures of the Central Parking signs, take a look at the image gallery below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.seniorbowl.com/" target="_blank">Senior Bowl</a> is something Mobilians can look forward to every year. So when our friends over at <a href="http://www.jjpragency.com/" target="_blank">JJPR</a> asked us to provide the signage for the Gulf Coast Seafood &amp; Tourism Bash tent, we were thrilled! <a href="http://www.jjpragency.com/" target="_blank">JJPR</a> is a local PR and marketing agency that we have collaborated on projects with before, so we knew it would be a fun and successful event to create signage for.</p>
<p>The Gulf Coast Seafood &amp; Tourism Bash was presented by <a href="http://www.bp.com/bodycopyarticle.do?categoryId=1&amp;contentId=7052055" target="_blank">BP</a> at the 2012 <a href="http://www.seniorbowl.com/" target="_blank">Senior Bowl</a>. The bash featured local chefs, as well as <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/" target="_blank">Food Network</a> star <a href="http://www.aaronmccargo.com/" target="_blank">Aaron McCargo Jr.</a>, cooking up mouthwatering Gulf Coast seafood dishes. Special guests from local news and radio stations also joined in for the festivities. <a href="http://www.seniorbowl.com/" target="_blank">Senior Bowl</a> patrons were given the opportunity to sit in the audience and even sample the delicious food prepared by the chefs.</p>
<p>Take a look at the signage we did for this special event!</p>
