  1. Which is Better: Flexi or SignLab?

    Personally I'd stay away from both. In my opinion they are overpriced and primitive. We have both Signlab and Flexi here at the shop. The only people who use them are old timers who have been using them for years and years and can't wrap their head around a new piece of software such as Corel...
  2. New To Signs 101- Need Help! flexsign User

  3. Photoshop - Feather

    Thanks AKWD I didn't know about the non-linear history states that helps me even! and I think i figured out his problem. If you make a selection and go to "select" then "feather" it will apply the feather to that selection only. I think he was entering the amount of feather in his toolbar which...

  5. Photoshop - Feather

    Hi Guys, I feel really dumb for asking this but A fellow graphic designer just called me asking if I knew how to "undo" the feather effect? I know you can just hit undo directly after adding the feather effect or go to your history and delete it there but he has gone a few steps ahead and I...

    Printing a PDF by any chance?
  9. Printing two-sided Banner

    The way I have been doing double-sided banners lately is just printing them normally but making sure that i leave 3 or 4 inches on the front and back. Depending on the size I may print 2 up. Then take them off the machine let them sit for a few hours place back in the machine this time flipped...
  10. Adobe Illustrator and Vinyl Cutting... I just don't get it!

    As Sign Boy has said you need to get familiar with the pathfinder tools. Look in Google for tutorials. Here's the first one I found... http://www.macmerc.com/articles/Graphics_Tips/18
  11. Your Website - best features

    The coolest feature i've seen is from a print shop here in town where you can go on their website and actually print your documents yourself 24 hours a day. and to Tracker..what is wrong with a little flash? Most sites nowadays aren't built for dial up users anyways. I say leave em in the...

  15. Ink laying down thick

    Hi All, I'm having a problem with certain colours printing too thick. This case its dark green. I sued to run a SP540V and the colours we solid. Now we upgraded to the VP 540 and the colours are grainy/noisey and darker colours print so thick that you can actually see the ink build up along...
  16. converting word to a pdf

    LMSigns, what version of Acrobat do you have? If you have 8 or 9 you will be able to select your files without even opening them, right click and convert to PDF and they will all be put into one PDF doc.
  17. windows

    What about a MAC book pro? (as far as designing with photoshop and illy)
  18. vp vs. soljet

    Not sure about the XC but We switched from the SP-540V to VP 540. I can tell you the colours and gradients are much better on the VP. Gradients on the SP used to be bands of colour that looked awful on small stuff but the VP has fixed that. Right now it prints roughly twice as fast as the VP...
  19. NASCAR style fake headlights

    Hi All, I am wrapping a go kart and my client brought up how Nascar race cars have those fake headlights and he thought it might look cool to put simlliar ones onto the go kart. I searched my stockphoto websites and didn't find anything yet. I will keep looking, just thought someone may be able...
  20. Guitarists - Gear

    Doyle, I have never heard of a B52 before now. I just googled it. It gets great scores on review sites and is pretty cheap! almost the same price as my AVT150 marshall which isn't all tube. What stlye music do you play? With your gear I'd guess you are into heavier stuff??
