Edge Seal baaaad. Clear strip goooood.

You're a genius Tiki! Thanks! Fred, do you have a program to sort/search your fonts? What is it? I desperately need something to help manage my fonts.

wow, no one can take a stab at it?

I like Chris' advice... that's the best way to learn! Definitely, absolutely, totally, always use 3M 180c-v3 for boats. It is approved by 3M for marine use. The air egress will help you get the vinyl on with fewer flaws. Those flaws are what would potentially cause vinyl failure. Air egress...

I assume you're talking about the fog light causing the biggest issue. We would probably cut a relief in that groove around the outside of the foglight... otherwise it's sure to fail. Then we'd face trim it where it makes that 90 into the light pocket. The inside of the fog light would not get...

What can I say... you get what you pay for. The Eye Candy package is phenomenal and saves tons of time when creating unique, custom designs. Good luck.

We have the Eye Candy 5 package and that's what I created that sample image with. I'm sure Eye Candy 6 has something comparable or better.

Alien Skin Eye Candy Texture package has a pretty cool bevel feature where you can add textures to the beveled area. Here's a quick sample of what it can do... but you have total control over the type, height and density of the texture.

Anyone know what the "taking care of business" font is? thanks!

I have some idea of the anxious anticipation of the unknown you must have experienced yesterday. It was very much like that before Hurricanes Rita (and later Ike) came barreling toward the Texas coast. Scrambling to do whatever you can to be prepared... for whatever may happen. I'm glad the...

Geez Fred... I was reading through this thread excitedly trying to come up with the wittiest and most sarcastic response to the OP as I could. Then you had to come along and provide a solid, clear breakdown of what a logical and effective business model should look like. Thanks a lot!

Uh, hire a good portrait artist?

Seriously? No need to rehash it all in another thread... It's all right here.

Solid state hard drives eh? Seems like it would not be a bad idea for the OS / Programs. I hadn't even considered it. My initial quick research shows that solid state drives tend to wear out much, much quicker than traditional drives. Any thoughts? I've got about 30 gigs full on the...

Also, what about video cards? All this machine will ever do is run photoshop, illustrator & indesign. It just has to run it fast as hell for designing wraps.

We hired another designer today, so I need to get another design system thrown together as soon as possible. I've been out of the loop on computer hardware for a couple of years. I need some suggestions on motherboard/processor combos. What's the best bang for your buck right now on processors...

I guess this is as good a place as any to ask... We want to include a "visual aid" on these trucks. We thought it would be great to mount a red lifeguard rescue tube to the top of the bed rails to make the back half of the truck look even more like an authentic lifeguard truck (that's where...

Fault? Geesh... I wouldn't go that far. It's what the client wanted.

I'd like to tell you it was some elobarate studio setup... but we just used a sheet of 4x8 white foam core as a backdrop. With some quality lighting and an amazing photographer, it worked perfectly for what we needed. The lifeguards were cropped out in Photoshop and dropped into the wraps with...

We don't typically laminate immediately after printing unless it's an emergency. However, we don't let our prints sit for 24 hours anymore either. I'd say on average, they sit for 4 to 8 hours before lam. Some sit for less, some sit for more. We've never had a single issue relating to outgassing...
