  1. What's Your Training?

    "Traditional" way... apprenticed at 3 shops to "old timers" sign painters who were my heros. Had 10 yrs under the belt before I saw first Signmaker4, and realized early on big changes wre coming. Bought 3rd Signmaker sold in Dallas/Ft. Worth area and experienced lots of frustration educating...
  2. Wacom Cintiq 21UX - has anyone ever used one of these?

    I still believe digitizing tablets are faster/easier/more accurate than tracing a scan. Dunno if this helps, but I saw one of the on screen "tablets" in an ad agcy - they told me "they're awesome".
  3. Hello

    Wow... blues on a mandolin. Bet that is fun to hear. I've picked a lot of bluegrass (on guitar) with mandolin players. Used to go watch Ricky Skaggs play before he got famous and became an Opry statesman and fixture. I play bass now in an orchestra, but also still have a desire to try a mandolin...
  4. Need Old Gerber Edge Info

    Disagree... it's not SUPPOSED to work on XP, but I had GA6.2 on it about 10 months and it worked absolutely fine. YOUR mileage may vary. Oh yeah... and did lots EDGE printing w/ WinXP and GA6.2 - no problems. One thing to note is that I DID set the Composer program for WIN98 compatability in...
  5. ink vs thermal

    MONTH LONG??? WOW! I've been doing repairs for years for a customer with a large pickup fleet. I come over to the body shop the day after they're done with it. Never a problem one single time. And when I worked in the custom paint dept of IronHorse motorcycles, we had the occasional decal to...
  6. Convex Vinyl Lettered Helmet

    Go for it. Just wish they'd sent me all 4 views.
  7. Convex Vinyl Lettered Helmet

    A few weeks back I posted about lettering racing helmets with Convex vinyl and how incredibly well the process went. I was asked a number of times for a pic (didn't have camera here). I asked the ad agcy IF they could get me a shot of one, all sides and front. THIS, however, was all I got. But...
  8. CPU Boot Prob w/EDGE connected...

    Thanks Fred- NO COFFEE YET.
  9. CPU Boot Prob w/EDGE connected...

    Caddinator... your post, wherein you completely quoted the post above you but added nothing but the anim. gif, has me baffled. Did it simply mean... kinda like "ditto"? Well, Cad, guess when I'm seein' some daylight I'm gonna see if you can stop by again and the I'll demonstrate the prob for...
  10. CPU Boot Prob w/EDGE connected...

    Nope. And this is an otherwise excellent computer - don't feel like buying another just to fix this. HAS to be a plausible explanation. Just haven't found it yet!
  11. CPU Boot Prob w/EDGE connected...

    Yep - did the new cables route too - followed instructions to the letter. But still have the problem.
  12. CPU Boot Prob w/EDGE connected...

    I asked about this long ago and tried the few suggestions then, but none worked. Thought I'd give it another go in case someone has a flash of brilliance. Before I boot up in the morning, I have to remember to disconnect the EDGE from the parallel port, or the WinXP opening screen (with the...
  13. Ioline Super 88?

    Yo SteveC... li'l off topis, but did those 2 slightly enebriated good ol' boys lookin' for a "right now job" in purple for their Peterbilt hook up with you Friday?? Didja do 'em any good?
  14. Does Signs 101 Seem a Little Faster?

    Oooookay!!! no prob. It just has NEVER happened before until now, but I couldn't see how forum software was involved either.
  15. Does Signs 101 Seem a Little Faster?

    Freddo... what I've noticed is EVERY time I read a post and then click the browser Back button, I close out of Signs101 and am taken back to my Home Page.
  16. Creative Suite - Standard or Premium?

    How about a worldwide software purchasing boycott? Ya know - send this email to everyone you know, they do the same, yadda yadda yadda. Nobody buys anything else for at least a year until the software co.'s come begging us with offers that are in line with what they KNOW we really want.
  17. Taking the Jump

    The two richest, most successful businessmen I know personally have been partners since day 1 for over 25 yrs. now. They even built new mansions across the street from each other way out of town in the country. I asked one of 'em the "secret" to why it worked. He said "somebody has to own 51%...
  18. never said hi

    Hi Drew! Is it gettin' cold there in central Indiana yet? I graduated from Logansport HS in '71, and have been to Peru a lot of times over the years. I have a sister-in-law who is a pharmacist at the CVS there in town... she had her own pharmacy across the street from CVS until they moved in and...
  19. SignDNA.com or Signfonts.com

    SteveC's Signfonts immediately became my first choice to use after installing. They make possible signs with what the late Mike Stevens in his indispensable book on layout called "eye appeal". Worth their weight in gold.
  20. RGB to CMYK Conversion??
