  2. ProWraps, hate to break your heart but...

    I have never believed that they are "real", but it doesn't stop me from watching. It is entertainment, plain and simple. Not only that, but my daughter loves watching it with me and she gets to learn a bit of history. Nothing wrong with a little educational father-daughter time.

  4. Help me win a shirt contest

    I like it and I "liked" it, good luck!
  5. The Bad Wrap update

    Of course the Illy one looks best on the screen. It is vector and will look sharper on the screen. It isn't a true life comparison. That is why I asked if they were screen capture or printed images. Given the nature of vector and raster, if you look close enough, even a 300 ppi (or 600ppi...
  6. The Bad Wrap update

    What are the dimensions and resolutions? Printed or screen capture?
  7. The Bad Wrap update

    Agreed.
  8. The Bad Wrap update

    To tell you the truth, in my work-flow, I would create it all in PS and it would be perfect shadowing. I rarely do anything in Illustrator, especially PS effects such as a drop shadow. I would create the text, background, and the shadow in Photoshop. I don't see any reason to bring...
  9. The Bad Wrap update

    Is it just the vehicle templates? Yes, photographic vehicle templates (currently) or are there textures included too? Not that I am aware of. Is it just for adobe? Supported on Photoshop or Flexi 10 (currently) Are they photoshop file formats? Layered .tiffs (currently) Is it software or...
  10. The Bad Wrap update

    I can't tell you what you are doing wrong without knowing what you are doing. Are you talking about drop shadows? In Photoshop, you aren't limited to just creating a shadow. Being the flexible program that it is, you can create dozens of variations of the same shadow. But honestly, you can...
  11. The Bad Wrap update

    I don't remember what got me on this rant. Crap, if it works for you, don't change it. I am just offering a different approach in case yours isn't working for you. What do I care how you do it? Oh yeah, The Bad Wrap. Not a bad deal if you know how to use it. If you are a Illustrator guy or...
  12. The Bad Wrap update

    Love the design Colorado. You are completely correct, this can be done in Illustrator just fine. Your design is mostly vector with couple basic raster images. But I argue that I could easily do the same thing in Photoshop. In the printed file, you would see no difference in image quality...

    +1 on the 9mm Glock for a carry gun, but I have a growing concern about Zombies. I bought a .308W (7.62) AR10 to take am apart.

    And I would NEVER question that design philosophy.
  15. The Bad Wrap update

    Chris, are you implying that I do not belong in this discussion? I shouldn't have an opinion because I don't lay my hands on vinyl daily? I am in no way trying to tell you that I know how to wrap vehicles better than any of you. I have had a hand at it and it is definitely not my gig. I...
  16. The Bad Wrap update

    To each his own I guess. I am not doubting your abilities or knowledge. In my huble opinion, most would be better served doing it the other way around (unless you are 100% vector). Using smart objects is not moving things around. They are part of the Photoshop file, but edit in Illustrator...
  17. The Bad Wrap update

    My thoughts exactly. They are both necessary and work very well together (drag and drop). With vehicle wraps, I am a Photoshop user dragging in Smart Objects from Illustrator (unless all vector). For many other designs and layout, Illustrator all the way. I am not bashing one software or the...

    Welcome from Utah Mike! I love Charlotte. One of my best customers is the design/print shop for a NASCAR team. I may be returning there in a few weeks to do some work for them. Beautiful place.
  19. The Bad Wrap update

    I disagree. For files the size needed for vehicle wraps, Photoshop, without a doubt, is my software of choice. I will do any vector work in Illustrator and drag it into my main design in Photoshop as a Smart Object (to keep it vector and editable). Photoshop is not just for effects and it...
