  1. Recognize the font?

    Actually not Bank Gothic. Looks like it at first glance, but it's not.
  2. Question What kind of adhesive vinyl for foamcore mounting

    No matter what kind of vinyl you use, it will not be "slideable" or repositionable on paper foamboard. If the adhesive touches, it will stick enough to tear the surface of the paper. We use our regular calendared air release vinyl for prints that we put on foamboard.
  3. show me your small labels!

    If you think that sounds odd, the church also goes out periodically and spends the morning at a laundromat paying for people's laundry.
  4. show me your small labels!

    Yes, they do, as part of a ministry to widows, single mothers, and single women.
  5. Recognize the font?

    Plateia Bold
  6. Wholesale wallpaper printing

    We have done some Dreamscape before, but have very little call for it. But we can print that big on our Epson. We could do it if you wanted.
  7. show me your small labels!

    We just printed these static clings, which are 1.5"x2.75", on our S70670. Those red, green, and yellow letters are 4.5 point text. The words Baptist Church are even smaller. I didn't bother to make a new profile for the static cling, and it's a little overinked because the material doesn't have...
  8. Nifty Tip #7 - Hanging signs from drop ceiling with ease

    There's any other way to hang signs from suspended ceilings?
  9. Disappointing when good customer doesn't pay...

    We do shirts payment in advance.
  10. This printer or software just #*&#*^# hates me!! Whats this???

    Your IMG links are to your own hard drive or something. You didn't upload the images using the forum "upload a file" function. It looks like it's overprinting a transparent black on top of the trees.
  11. Penetrating Roof Line

    Looks to me like the white angled roof stuff was an add-on done because the original roof over the arcade leaked. If so, when it was built, the sign would have been easy to mount on the parapet wall. I agree that to put a sign up will require roof work after the sign is installed.
  12. ID

    Actually it has an autotraced sort of look.
  13. Discussion Solvent and latex?

    The main advantage for latex printers is that the print is ready to use, laminate, or cut immediately after coming off the printer. There is no required drying or outgassing time. The disadvantage for latex printers is the print quality.
  14. What the #$&% is up with new notebook computers in 2019?

    Although I could be classified as a computer hobbyist, and once upon a time I played games on computers, I have no desire to go home and do more sign work at home. And when I am with my wife and family, I don't want to have a laptop on my lap nor a phone in my hand. The time I have there is...
  15. Alternative to Gemini for dimensional letters?

    I never leave any doubt about anything when I place orders by email with Gemini, and interestingly enough, I never have problems with getting the order wrong or having it shipped the wrong place. Suck it up and realize that you are the one who screwed up by not specifying the shipping address...

  17. Does anyone have good wrap design resources?

    Aurora Graphics?
  18. Union Sign Shops? Strikes? Whats the difference?

    There used to be a sign painters union. I learned signs in a shop where the owner's father had been a journeyman sign painter out of Kansas City. In those days the union was where you learned to hand letter and were tested to prove your ability. In other shops you learned about neon and...
  19. Epson S80 White ink longevity

    I would have thought that orange isn't used to make red. But it is. M+O, with very little yellow. Obviously that will depend on the RIP how it decides to mix the inks. But we were using a canned profile from 3M to start with. Now we're using profiles we made ourselves and have no problems with...
  20. Epson S80 White ink longevity

    Whoever wrote up that piece of falsehood obviously never had to replace a year and a half of sign production because the orange faded in just a few months (laminated), making all the red turn pink.
