  1. thoughts?

    I think as a designer I got in to the wrong profession. All people want is flames diamond plate, and checkered flags. If they can't pick it out of a clip art book they dont want it.
  2. Converting photos so they can be cut

    you can convert a grayscale image in to a black and white half tone then live trace and cut it.

    Sun on the beach! well, nevermind, customer doesnt like it. yesterday he told me he wants flames, today says he wants it to look like this (see attatched). It's like I have to drag people kicking and screaming in to good design.

    I'm trying to put together a qoute on 50 20oz bottle shaped signs,~48" tall. Cant find somewhere to outsource the print and diecut to, or atleast somewhere to order the bottle blanks. Has anyone seen them before, or Should I just Print them on to 4x8 and cut them by hand?
  6. What material to use on pool table felt?

    if it was me I would go with the heat transfer. It would have a much better bond and color fastness; However it would be hard to change out. never looked in to removing a heat transfer decal.
  7. Ideas for substrate holder

    rack ok, here is a real idea this time.
  8. Ideas for substrate holder

    I'm lucky, we have a basement where I get to keep all of my substrates. At our old sho, we used to just have it all leaning up against a wall. I hated that. sorry, no ideas here that wouldnt take up just as much space.
  9. sooo.. i was bored

    well, he sent me something on thursday, and told me it was overnight through USPS. Ive never heard of anything overnighted through USPS. the phone was ringing off the hook friday with him asking if I got it yet and when am I sending the files. when I checked the tracking number it said it wasnt...
  10. Please help

    Gypsy, What is that program you use to view fonts. Ive been wanting something other than fontbook that has the feature of viewing a specific word or phrase rather than just an alphabet!
  11. sooo.. i was bored

    im still not sure what he meant by that. I guess his credit card is linked to his business and he didnt want it to show up there for some reason. but I am pretty sure you can deduct a certain amount of money spent on advertising, soooo, i dont know. Plus this guys has bad rep in his industry for...
  12. sooo.. i was bored

    Thanks, it was looking like no one was paying attention for a minute there. Guess how episode 2 starts.... thats right, with me not getting the check, lol

  14. T-Shirt Press... which one?

    HotTronix - Check. Any other good names... or bad names?
  15. T-Shirt Press... which one?

    Whay are the top name brands? Each of my suppliers only carries 2 or 3. The owners said they dont want to drop a grand on a press. We would just be doing our own shirts at first as we have no customers really waiting on us to get this, But we have had 3 or 4 clients inquire if we could do short...
  16. T-Shirt Press... which one?

    So I've been on the owner about getting a t-shirt press for the shop for a while now, and finally this morning they told me they couldn't decide because everytime they found one they thought would be good, they found bad reviews about it. It is now my job to research and decide. Anyone know a...
  17. Roof Wrap, Vinyl Scuffing

    I dont think that the matte black black would show scratches at least not as much, but I thought the purpose of making the roof black is to make it look like it has a glass top. I havent found an application tool yet that wont leave scratches. my installers are getting pretty good at using the...
  18. Take-up Reel = crap

    hmmmm.... there's some genius, i'll give it a shot and let you know how it goes. sounds like it would fix the shifting issue, but make changing the take up roll a bit more of a task. But you cant have everything.
  19. Take-up Reel = crap

    well, I tried a piece of signabond lite, and it was just a hair too thick to slide in to the gap. my only other option would be to get some synthetic door shims and use those. The only problem with this shimming fix is that the shims fall out, and have to be put back in to place every time I put...
  20. Take-up Reel = crap

    thats what is happening here. When I see the slack on one side or the other before going over the dancer roller, I know its time to step in and and jerk with it to get it straight. usually by pushing or pulling the bottom of the 'left side bracket' forward or to the rear it will start going...
