  2. Location, location, location?

    We are in an old downtown area that gets a lot of foot traffic. It is one of 13 shopping centers in the city but the only one that does not have common ownership. We have an association of merchants that plans events for the area with a market night during the spring and summer. The value of...

    Windows XP melted down. Did a repair and had to reinstall all drivers and software. Now X5 launches with the ARM. Many uninstalls, registry clean up and reinstalls with no luck. Any suggestions?

    getting the hang of it.
  6. I have to Wonder....

    We use Wings Experience marketed by Mesa Dist when we purchased our SWF machine. It is pretty good but not on a scale with Wilcom. Most of what comes in here will do with that and the really tough stuff goes to our digitizer who does use Wilcom.
  7. I have to Wonder....

    We like to use our trademarked name, 'that letter looking thing' with our customers. It is frustrating that there isn't a governing body that covers this crap so we all speak the same language. I can only go by what our software calls it. That is pretty much all I can attribute my knowlege...
  8. I have to Wonder....

    What I see with different embroidery software is the same thing referred to with different terms. It must be a marketing thing to either trademark or brand a product and to keep you from jumping ship to a competitor. I only have 6 years of experience in machine embroidery and I saw the...
  9. This one makes me dizzy to look at

    It went on a shirt. The image posted was the source shirt. That was his supplied artwork. We get a lot of that. The best one was a photo of a tattoo that we embroidered.
  10. Merrow stitching

    A lot of practicing going on. This thing is feisty like a redhead. Both of these are ones that didn't go out. At least I have stopped breaking needles with it. Kahuna is a 14" patch for a jacket back. Local guy that races boats. The other is for a paint ball team.

  14. Thinking about getting a DTG printer

    DTG printing has come a long way since it first came out. It can be profitable but it is often very frustrating and slow. We still have our machine from over 5 years ago and it still runs but we don't push it. Our biggest seller for shirts is to women with rhinestones and glitter vinyl...
  15. Thanks Fred!

    What we found out was most of these machines are shipped outside of the US. Our distributor doesn't see too many of them. It has taken me a lot of practice to get the non-square ones down. Our first few orders on this thing I had to do double the number of patches just to get enough good...
  16. Retailers Ready To Force Consumers To Pay ‘Swipe Fee’ For Using Plastic

    we pay 1.64% for swiped cards, more for keyed in. No other fees. Money posts next day and at the bank the following day. about 1/3 of our customers us a cc or dc. we have 2 customers that use paypal. the rest are cash (mostly) and check.
  17. Trademark vs Copyright?

    copyright protect written (or similar like movies and songs) works while trademarks identify a brand. if you did artwork for a customer they still own the mark but not the stuff to print them unless contracted as such. we don't give up files used to produce the final product. the only...

  20. Yellow Pages United scam alert to those of you that advertise in the YellowPages

    Yeah, we get these every year. We don't advertise in the yp so we know it is a scam. we also got something about our trademark and I almost sent the money in until I looked more closely at it. My favorite one is actually a legit company that contracts with the phone company but they are...
