  1. Would you do it again?

    As for me I'm just starting so yeah. Really it's my son and his friend I'm just the old guy hanging out. Still I think there is potential if you are not just focused on cloroplast and banners. Now at the risk of hi-jacking the thread... @Old Paint I'm not as old as you but I do remember the...
  2. Chased by a herd of Zebra

    I get fast black and white's chasing me sometimes too. But I live in LA and if they catch you you get a ticket. Very cool. African safari is on my bucket list.
  3. Bad Logo Help

    Japanese maples are red. And are a very beautiful tree. They do look similar to pot in shape but unless they are dying they should have more than 7 leaves.
  4. PayPal WARNING

    No problems here either. I used to leave money in the account when they were paying 6% interest. Now I move it out as it accumulates. Just did a transfer yesterday without problems.
  5. Grammar question

    Defiantly should be servicing. Unless its a power company selling electricity. Grammatically I would say either one is correct but being a minimalist I prefer less words. So my choice is "servicing all your electrical needs". Northerners can insert the "of" subliminally.
  6. AT&T dumps YP

    Yeah it goes from my doorstep to the recycle bin.
  7. Drawing in Corel

    I use the wacom extra large but I don't think I would get it again. The large is the best size. Also I hardly ever use it in draw. I use it for zbrush and paint. I use it in draw if I want to digitize my handwriting or vectorize by hand. I want to do a DIY cintiq and will one day but so far I'm...
  8. Why is x5 so cheap on ebay?

    Without original packaging seems fishy. You can get an educational version for $100 or so but it is not for commercial use and comes with no support. You also may have to verify student status.
  9. Plastic water tank

    It's probably polyethylene or polypropylene. I know making paint stick to it is pretty much impossible for long term. Clean it good with wax and grease remover and use an adhesion promoter like bulldog tie coat.
  10. Plywood primer

    If you have access to a hvlp spray gun (or buy a harbor freight cheapy) spray a filler primer and sand it smooth. If you don't care about the wood texture then sanding sealer or shellac will work.
  11. Destroy craigslist lowballers

    Its not their industry too? I didn't know you needed to be a member to sell signs. Here in America we call it "Free market capitalism". If you can't compete then you will be eaten. Also you haven't won. Tomorrow is a new day full of cl posts. Have fun.
  12. SO, I've been painting on the cintiq....

    Nice work. I have no idea what it's worth but I think it will take a lot of time. No? $300 per day is my standard answer.
  13. Is this anyway to treat a business friend?

    Ha! Do it and say you'll only charge him for materials. Then triple the cost. Two can play that game.
  14. LED Acrylic Plastic Signs

    Looks cool. I'm sure I saw those stands somewhere. I saved the link I know. I'll look for it. I know led writing boards are easy to find. They are about $100. Also I think if you backed it with an opaque material it would glow better.
  15. Master Vinyl Cutter problems

    Hehe. Somethings are just too difficult. So... There are only 4 pins actually used (and rarely CD) but pins 2 & 3 are the main concern. A null modem cable will have pin 2 connected to pin 3 from one end to the other and vise-versa. And normally the same gender at each end. If those pins are...
  16. Master Vinyl Cutter problems

    Google is your friend. http://www.nullmodem.com/NullModem.htm It is normally labeled as computer-to-computer serial cable or null modem. I use those USB-serial dongles for quite a bit of stuff. Not all are the same. Get one that is ment to work with your operating system. Win7 64 is...
  17. Neat font pairing game

    I just spent some time playing this and I must say it is impressive. It not just a game. It overlays the fonts and gives details about them. You can match on different attibributes. And educates. Thank you very much for sharing.

  19. Nooooo!!!! F*#()ing microsoft.

    Well that sucks. Still, nobody ever gets remote access to my computer. They tell me what they want done. I'll do it. Anyway all my DVD players have Netflix built in as well as one of the flat screens. I think the last DVD player I got was $100 and does everything from Netflix to pandora and...
  20. I need to install these 3-color decals today. Quick question on 'where' to layer.

    Divide by 3. Or pi if you want to be precise. Yea I think she means diameter.
