iLounge reviews ETCHamac

We were impressed with ETCHamac way back in July, but we hadn't actually sent off a Mac or iPod to their service to see how it would turn out. iLounge, with a trusty iPod in tow, decided that they must see if ETCHamac's product was up to snuff.

The image to the right is the iPod that iLounge had etched, and it looks pretty good to me, however, as the review points out the placement of the logo is a little odd.

Overall, iLounge gave the process a B.

The image in this post is from the iLounge review, we just borrowed it to illustrate our point.

A skilled Prepress (production) artist at any print shop should have called that one before it went to press. While I disagree with the comment it could be shifted down, it could have been sized down 10% and look decent.

This also is a fault of iLounge. Any company with a logo should provide logo specs for reproduction -- a quality logo designer would have put an invisible box around that logo to designate negative space that no other graphic or border should enter. If not, it's not the fault of the prepress artist it was designed without thinking of multiple production options down the road.

Still, though, a quality prepress artist would have called it.
