  1. How create Custom Color Palettes in Flexi?

    Use this....
  2. I NEED TWO 14x12 MESH BANNERS ASAP!!!

    You know, they're incredibly nice people and they'll bend over backwards to make you happy. They do periodically send out marketing emails (like every other supplier I have)....all you've got to do is tell them to stop. I know that can be difficult and time consuming sometimes....send me your...
  3. What's in a name?

    I quit telling people I'm a graphic designer years ago because every time the conversation turned into a discussion of their talented nephew/cousin/neighbor/secretary who was also a "graphic designer". Inevitably I'd get defensive and say something stupid. I tried to just tell people "I make...
  4. Real estate signs

    30" deep holes, keep your holes as small as possible. Pack your backfill in as you put it in....not after you fill the hole up with it. You shouldn't ever have a problem with the sign leaning unless you're installing in some really, really soft dirt or the ground stays saturated. Most of the...

  6. printing 1 color invoices?!!!?!?

    My problem with going subscription based like that is what happens a year from now when I decide to drop it and go with something else? Am I going to have to print out every quote, work order, and invoice to be able to see them because once I end my subscription the files are unreadable? I'll...
  7. printing 1 color invoices?!!!?!?

    $129 a month sounds kind of steep for a one man shop. Is it really saving you that much?
  8. Sign-Makers Unions: Good or Bad?

    Came up here a while back. Interestingly enough the most adamant defender of unions here isn't a member of the one that's available to him. http://www.signs101.com/forums/showthread.php?t=82120&highlight=unions
  9. Wedding Invitation

    Dang, I misread that.....I thought it was YOUR fiance'. If it's not then get the heck away from this job. You really don't want the headache.
  10. Logo for a Cake Business

    The three pieces of clipart are three different styles and don't work together. Scriptina ranks up there with Bleeding Cowboys as the most overused bad fonts in the industry. I like the idea of using a whimsical font for the name but that ones ain't it. Of course a lot of bakers are just...
  11. Lets see your shop! Post pics inside and out

    Yeah, but I can cook better.
  12. Need something Close

    You didn't say perfect. You said close.
  13. Need something Close

    HVD Comic Serif, Chowderhead and Nihility are similar-ish.
  14. Just sayin

    You know what they say....Too much of a good thing is a very good thing.
  15. Custom Water Bottle Labels

    Tedious but not really a big deal. I did cases and cases and cases of them for my wedding. You can get in a rhythm and knock out 4 or 5 a minute. Of course if I had to do it again I'd pay some high school kid to do it for me. One thing to keep in mind is they can order them online for around...
  16. Should Art / Setup Be Charged?

    Me too. The vast majority of my customers get my original layout and approve it with little to no adjustments. Telling them UP FRONT about the art charges and who owns the art and how much extra potential charges could be eliminates a whole lot of future problems.
  17. 3 Nights work..now File Format Not Supported!

    I know this is going to sound ridiculous and impossible but change the file name and try to reopen it. It only works about 1 time in 10 but sometimes it happens. I don't know why Flexi will do that. It's been doing it since version 3. It only happens to us about twice a year so it's reliable...
  18. Wedding Invitation

    If she's wanting anything similar to traditional don't do them yourself. If you insist on doing them yourself then go somewhere like Michaels and buy the kits. You do the typesetting then laser print the info. The kits have the invitations, envelopes, reply cards, vellum, and all the rest of...
