Thanks for your reply. Its frustrating as the blueish purple is very subtle on my computer and looks nice. But it looks too purple viewed on the others. I didn’t want pure grey as it looks too dull. 🙁

Hi Vince,

Thanks for your response.

The logo needs to be used for print and web. Its primary use will be for web. I designed first in CMYK and when finished I exported for print (TIF,EPS and PDF) and web (jpeg and PNG)

What I should have said is the PDF file actually looked correct (how it looked on my computer) on the clients computer, but all other files had the purple look to it.

Should I be using a different approach to my design? I know that there will be inconsistencies between screen and print but its frustrating to think a particular colour choice I go with can potentially look so different on other monitors and understandably the client will not be happy about this too.

I read that its better to design in CMYK and export to RGB than the other way around and as the client also wanted to print the logo for a t-shirt it seemed logical to design this way. Is there another method I should be using?

Thanks in advance

Scott

Many thanks for your help with this Ridley and for supplying the CS5 file. I will have a look and check out the site you mentioned. Much appreciated

Thanks for the message Ridley.

You’ll have to forgive me as I am very new to expressions so bit confused.
You talk about an expression slider, is this the slider control in after effects? If so how do you control the expression with it?

Are there any tutorials you know of that shows you how to do this you could point me to? Really appreciate you sending the example file but I couldnt open them with my version of AE (CS5) so i guess you have a newer version

Many thanks

Thanks for the response. All sorted now. Think problem was with nesting comps!

Thanks for your reply RoRk. I seem to have sorted it now. I think it was something to do with nested comps causing issues. I still havent got my head around the issues this causes with collapsed transformations etc!

All the best
