  1. Brands of the World

    It's a great site. I've been using it for years. Like others mentioned, you just have to be sure to check that the logo you download is current and active. Even some big corporate well known logos have evolved slightly over the years. The issues with copyright and trademark infringement...
  2. Still need 6 installers

    I wish I could come. I've got my twin nieces staying with me the week after Christmas. My sister would murder me if I backed out. My guys are super excited about it though! You get the HPs going yet?
  3. Your Install Fonts - nice tool

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! This one should win Website of the Year!
  4. How to charge for matte wrap?

    Depends what you are wrapping. We charge a premium for matte wraps because you really have to take your time and do them perfect or they wind up looking like crap. Typically they are going on nice, expensive cars... so your liability is much higher too. Damage a $60k Mercedes and that's gonna...
  5. WOW, as in WOW, ever have a gun pulled during a job interview????

    I don't really see the issue. He didn't do anything illegal, immoral or unethical AND you baited him into the conversation. Obviously, it's not the most appropriate topic of conversation for a job interview... but whose fault it that? Now, if you started a conversation about smoking crack and he...
  6. how to clean encoder strip on Roland vp540i

    I've learned recently that a dirty encoder strip can cause a Roland to do all kinds of crazy things that you might normally think are related to head problems or ink flow problems. Dust and dirt can make electronics go haywire. You first have to remove a few pieces to get the cover off. You'll...
  7. Fun kerning game.

    This is awesome! I'm a kerning nazi. It all started for me when we laid out headlines in the high school newspaper the old fashioned way back in 90 or 91. Thought for sure I'd ace this thing. Definitely going to pass it along to my sometimes lazy designers who don't feel the importance of...
  8. Print & Cut - How Much Trap?

    The amount of bleed on print/cut vinyl doesn't really matter. You can give yourself .125" or 2.5" or 25'... it's all getting weeded and thrown away. You know your plotter. Give yourself enough bleed to get the job done. Don't waste too much ink. Big jobs with long runs might require a little...
  9. ok... rip us apart

    Here's my 5 minute interpretation...
  10. Customer changes mind after approving proof and receiving banner.

    Cost should be a non-issue on a 3x4 banner. It's less than $5. So, the question is do you want to keep a happy customer or do you want to let them go?
  11. OK....After much work....

    Good input in your second post Colin. Circle, all due respect... you need to consider wiping the slate clean and get some creative input from the generous, creative designers here. None of yours are really knocking it out of the park. Don't feel bad though. It is REALLY REALLY hard to design...
  12. ok... rip us apart

    Last one has nothing going for it in my opinion. Sure, it's clean... it is also empty, boring and lacking character. A marketing company with a logo that reads "ID" should have a very strong visual brand. The last one doesn't do it. My favorites are 3 and 4. Particularly the green one. Just lose...
  13. Need wrap installers week between Christmas and New Years

    PM sent! I'd love to come but I don't think my wife would appreciate it if I ditched out for the holidays. One or two of my guys might be down. Call me Friday.
  14. thanks gg - I'm finally sporting the new look:

    I don't know. I'm not feeling it. A matte black finish certainly looks phenomenal on an Aston Martin DB9 or perhaps a Cadillac CTS-V along with some clean, stylish wheels and tires. But on a work truck with steel wheels and a camper top... it looks a little too much like you couldn't afford a...
  15. Business card printer?

    BCT is pretty pricey for anything other than business cards. We use them in a pinch for 24 hour biz cards. Gotprint is awesome for everything including full color letterhead and envelopes. We print everything with them.
  16. Head is Leaking

    Can anyone give a photo diagram of how to change the dampers? I am having a similar issue, intermittently. I've never done it nor seen it done.
  17. I feel like I missed something...

    I think Bradster is hiding under a rock somewhere ;)
  18. Seams

    Like 6 weeks... or 6 hours. Just depends.
  19. I feel like I missed something...

    I've only been aware of it for a week or so and it's already old. i y.com?
