  5. Charging too much?

    Of course I laugh at these kind of threads, Because in 19 85 when PCs & Gerber 4B, Spirit, & others hit the market I watched prices drop like a rock in water & quality of advertising also. After this the industry lost alot good sign industry people over the years to all this mess computer...

  8. Has anyone ever seen this happen to paint?

    If above answers are correct, no need to rewrite about it. Questions .. What type of paint used ? How do you clean the acrylic ? How did ya spray this ? Only way to correct is to totally redo, meaning re clean panel 100% DO NOT SAND any part of this, if ya just clean area you will see ghost...

  14. Shocker: I'm trying out Corel X7!!!

    I bought the downloaded version of X7 I do like it yes but my interest in designing on a PC is low so not used it enough & the library does not teach it or other services which I can not afford because I get so little work these days.

    I've seen this done here in Orlando Florida & seen failure after a year, was it done properly good question, did it look good, ?.. for a short time yes, the sun, rain, wind & sand destroys everything here quickly.

    Don't waste ya money on hardware & keep subbing out cut, print, making, installing. Learn all ya can about designing advertising etc. & put ya money into software & education & computer & be the best of the best. Hardware changes so fast that ya never will be able to keep up unless ya...
  20. Channel Letters and upright inches

    Z Signs said it well. Another thing you said you have been subbing these out before, so go back to invoices & get some good estimates already finished & you can find your profit/loss per job. You got it very lucky these days before we had to make channel letters by hand from the pattern to...
