1. How many designs will I receive?
The answer to the question should be "As many as it takes to achieve the goal". When you bring your car to a mechanic with a specific problem, you wouldn't expect to pay the mechanic in advance only to have the car returned without solving the problem! The same applies to logo design: when you hire a design firm, if they are limiting the number of designs they will create, they are basically saying "we may not solve the problem to your satisfaction, but we will still charge you". You should also be certain you are allowed to revise the design as many times as necessary.
2. How many designers will work on my design?
Whether you're spending $500 or $5000 you should always request that at least 3 designers are creating designs. The simple, obvious answer is different designers equals more unique designs. If you give 10 designers the same project, you will get 10 entirely unique and different designs. Who knows what creative minds will develop?
3. Do you have related examples?
If you're looking for a logo with a specific style or illustration, the design firm should be able to provide you with an example of such. Be sure to qualify the design firm by asking to see such examples that would be in-line with an identity you are trying to achieve.
4. Will the logo work in black and white?
Ahhh. The "cat got your tongue" question. Many design firms will not or can not answer this question. Why? Because (A) they have not considered it, and (B) since many modern designers rely on trendy computer effects or multiple colors to "wow" their clients, they are simply unable to create a truly succesful design that will work on all platforms. Consider that before the advent of computers, designers relied on their talent and creativity to create designs that stand the test of time: Coca Cola®, BMW®, Nike® and Time/Warner® to name a few. If you're logo doesn't work in black and white, it is already dated.
5. Do I own the artwork rights?
This seemingly harmless question can create many headaches. Besides the implications of legal battles, you do not want to be forever tied to the design firm that creates your logo. You absolutely should insist that you will own the final design outright and you will receive the artwork in its original format (most likely Adobe Illustrator). Furthermore, your ownership guarantees you can use the logo as you like and, more importantly, modify the artwork in the future if you choose. Of course, this ownership issue does not apply to any of the designs/concepts that were created and rejected, but only to the final design that is paid for in full.

to my Christian & Jewish friends: in the Quran Surah Mariam (Mary) or chapter 19?
God tells the story of Zachariah and the birth of Jesus Christ...i just wanted to know how similar the stories are in the Jewish faith and in the Christian faith. Please watch this video and tell me if there are any similarities.
The reason why I’m asking this is just to learn more about Judaism and Christianity.
Thank you and Peace, Shalom, Salam.
Jesus in their story has a step father name Joseph, and was born in a stable. Three wise men come following a star sent by God to see Jesus (pbuh) and to give him gifts. Jesus doesn't talk in their version of the story, and Mary doesn't tell the story the Gospels who knew Jesus later do.

Black Skin & African American Skin Care Products-What To Use for Beautiful Skin

Black Skin & African American Skin Care Products-What To Use For Beautiful Skin
African American and Black Skin Products must have the right ingredients to really work. Some ingredients should be avoided for black skin or any other type of skin.
In this article I will show you which ones work and which ones to avoid. Some ingredients, for example, will cause hyper pigmentation while others will cause de-pigmentation. Here is what you should avoid and what you should use.
Avoid These 3 Ingredients in Skin Care Products
1. Sodium methyl paraben (any type paraben)
2. Petroleum-based products
3. Chemical bleaching agents
*Sodium methyl paraben - One ingredient that is commonly found in skin care lines is sodium methyl paraben. It, as well as, all parabens have been found in breast cancer patients. It is best to not use any product containing parabens. Sodium methyl paraben can result in de-pigmentation that may be permanent.
Products with petroleum content also can cause hyper pigmentation. Dark spots may appear that do not match other skin tone. Also propylene glycol and wood-based alcohols have been known to cause darker spots to appear on the skin. The reason often stated why these ingredients are in black skin care products is that they relieve oiliness. However, the products most people are using cause the oiliness. Petrolatum, mineral oil and other products that are petroleum-based CAUSE the oiliness.
Chemical bleaching agents are often promoted to those who want to lighten their skin tone. There are safe skin lightening products. I'll cover that also in a moment. Chemical bleaching ingredients can bring much harm to your skin. Avoid them especially if you have black skin or darker tones of skin.
Compounds That Work Safely
-Extra pone nut grass
-CoQ10
- Jojoba
-Natural vitamin E
-Functional keratin
-Wakame kelp
Extra-pone nut grass is a very good ingredient that will even out the skin tone. It usually doesn't take much to give a noticeable difference.
Natural vitamin E is an antioxidant. Since it is an antioxidant it will usually help get rid of hyperpigmentation of skin. In other words, skin spots.
Sebum - The Natural Moisturizer
Sebum is our natural skin oil that also is our natural skin moisturizer. However, some of us have either too dry skin or too oily or some range in between. So skin problems can vary from one person to the next. But skin problems in general have nothing to do with black skin or any other tone. Skin is skin. Only the skin tone maybe different, but all skin is composed the same. What the problem usually is, is the product being used on the skin. Especially if it is petroleum based. Petrolatum feels good but it can do a lot of subtle harm. If you use a good moisturizer, like the one I use, you will have 90% of your skin problems solved.
Sebum is produced by the sebaceous glands. All skin, black, white etc have these glands. Sebum is the skin's natural moisturizer. Jojoba and passion fruit extract work well with the sebaceous glands. These two ingredients will help moisturize skin that is very dry. What is nice about them they will moisturize the skin without causing any skin flareups.
Anti Aging Ingredients
Most anti aging products don't even come close to working. Companies take advantage of the popularity of anti aging and promote skin care products that do more harm than anything else.
You don't need any special african american anti aging product. Let me tell what you do need.
In my vast searching for some skin care products that really work I found one that I am ecstatic about. The reason is that it is safe and it works on all skin types and skin tones. It is called "Functional Keratin". When mixed with Wakame Seaweed (Japanese) CoQ10 and Vitamin E it produces new skin cells and fibers. This results in a younger looking skin because of the skin firmness that is taking place. See my website for more information on this truly amazing skin care ingredient.
Functional Keratin is the most successful and effective of all the antiaging products I researched. Functional keratin combined with Wakame kelp extract and antioxidants CoQ10 and natural vitamin E promotes the increase of new skin fibers and skin cells. Wakame helps prevent sagging by increasing skin firmness.
What causes harm to skin cells and other body cells is what is called free radicals. They basically go on a rampage and hurt other cells. The antidote is antioxidants found in compounds like vitamin E. Remember this please, avoid any ingredient ending in paraben, (for black skin especially Sodium methyl paraben). Avoid all skin care and other products that list petrolatum as an ingredient. Don't even think about using a chemical bleaching agent. Use the ones I recommend. See my website for my personally tested skin cream. - Thanks, Margaret Bell

Do you think a woman president will clean up the mess Bush made?
Hillary Clinton is the first female president and more than likely will win and be the first female president ever. It took Bill Clinton to clean up Bush Senior's mess. Do you think Hillary can clean up Bush Jr.'s mess? How will the world see the United States of America if a female president is running the country? Does a woman president show week government? Will Bill Clinton be telling Hillary what to do and essentially be running the show? Will the Democrats clean up the Republic mess? Will we ever get out of the enormous economic debit we have put our country in? How do countries not have as much money as us yet are avail to afford wars? Why have we spent so many Billions on war when the world is starving? Will there be a recount if Hillary does win like in past years? If Hillary wins will that make Bill Clinton the first man or the first woman? LOL . Will Hillary Clinton make the white house pink? If a woman president gets ellected does that mean she will ellect mostly women?
Bush is used to having women clean up after him. It would be an excellent campaign slogan for Hillary.
