  1. Need Help Converting complex jpg into eps

    Just curious, how is one bitmap more or less complex than another? Pixels in a row. The same number of pixels, the same number of rows. What color each pixel might be is irrelevant to complexity. When you say 'eps' you mean trace the image for a vector representation just so you can enlarge it...
  2. Circle- Decal Cutting problem

    Making something into a vector does not necessarily preserve any arcs. Some objects end up with a bazillion nodes. Select the object, select the Select Point tool from the Path Edit toolbar. Then click on any portion of the path and it should show you all of the nodes. Sometimes Flexi can be...
  3. Circle- Decal Cutting problem

    That's not necessarily a 4 node oval. What you show are just the eight object control nodes, not the actual nodes on the path. You need to select the object for path editing and see how many nodes it has. Be sure you're sending actual arcs and not a series of straight lines. Then, if you are...
  4. Compensation for weekend work?

    Unless, of course, you want to work and play with others. Language is also an arbitrary construct, do you propose a babblesque existence as well as a timeless one?
  5. Compensation for weekend work?

    Being retired all days pretty much are the same. I work in the shop whenever there's work to do. Regardless of what day it might be.
  6. What is this thing

    The cigar box contains cold type banded together. Without knowing which characters are banded together it's hard to say for what the type is intended.
  7. Some memes I created - Part Deux

    At some time in your life did someone perhaps suggest that you were clever? Find that person and drive it into the sea. Regardless, the notion of 'meme' is tortured at best and, as a noun, doesn't seem to have an actual referent.
  8. Why do people use "Brand names" instead of the actual product name?

    TV dinners, nylon, rayon, the list is endless.
  9. Printing eco solvent Wall mural in my son's bedroom. Need Advice

    Thanks for that Clarence Darrow. Did anyone ask or is it that you just can't help yourself being a d!ck?
  10. 5 post limit per day

    Limitations on various rights by government and policies and procedures by the private sector always start out for the best of reasons at the time. But once ceded you never get them back and they expand. If some apparatus or another were to come to me and say that they could end all war...
  11. Ink Scratches Really Easy

    What exactly do you mean by 'scratches easily'? As compared to what? Unlaminated ink will scratch but by what standard does it scratch easily?
  12. Need Help Fountain fill problem

    Use a halftone instead of a gradient. With a halftone all the dots are black just their size varies.
  13. Question Motor home graphics

    You had better make them a whole lot larger. You'll never get them back on exactly where the old ones were. The larger they are the harder it is. Most RV decorations don't follow any line or reference point. Just a random collection of random shapes.
  14. Rant When did this all come about.......?????

    Why is it that specimens such as yourself either allude to or outright name Trump as some sort of doofus totally out of the blue? When his predecessor was in office no one ever commented on the fusillade of 'um's, 'er's, 'ah's, etc. [not to mention 'corpse-man'] that issued forth whenever a...
  15. Question What is this?

    In Flexi it's simple to edit a contour cut line. Select the contour cut then do Effects->Separate Contour Cut. Now the contour cut becomes an editable path but remains a contour cut line. Edit it any way you like.
  16. SUBLIMATION MUG PROBLEM ! WTF IS THIS??? MUG CHICKEN POX

    Looks like the dye sub receptive coating on the cup is not right;
  17. Rant When did this all come about.......?????

    People use 'like' instead of 'is' for much the same reason that they end what would be a declarative sentence in a rising query. It's a way, albeit a micro-way, to avoid responsibility. With 'like', a rising query, and other verbal evasions, making an actual statement is avoided.
  18. Opening a sign shop

    Having some small but actual experience with these sorts of things, more than one lawyer retained by myself and others, held that in order to sign away something of value post facto [after gaining employment] the employee must be appropriately compensated or the agreement is null and void.
  19. Opening a sign shop

    Unless your employer offers you actual compensation for signing a non-compete agreement then it's meaningless. Note that 'you get to keep your job' is not compensation.
  20. Question Less sensitive banner finger prints and others

    Are you rebuilding an engine or something before you handle the material? I've been using Ultraflex for years and I don't get fingerprints or boogers or anything on it that has any effect on printing. I'm not especially careful, I don't don gloves or suit up. Why do you loose a foot of material...
