  1. Corel to Flexi

    I used to use Corel 8 and those files would go straight into Flexi with minimal problems. But now that I have X3, it won't do it all. I usually save artwork as a CDR, and then a copy as AI (saved in Illustrator 8 format) and that usually opens fine in Flexi. I HATE Flexi for it's file...
  2. How much can I trust a external hard drive?

    Thank you Signage! That software looks awesome! And it's cheap...??? wow! So basically it just images everything from one hard drive to another, in this case, a backup drive. Correct? Sounds perfect and painless. And for $50 for the home edition.... wow. :thankyou:
  3. X3 slow after using bevel

    When you use the bevel tool it turns the vector image into a cropped raster image. I think at about 300DPI if you haven't played with the bevel settings. So basically, if you're trying to re-size some vehicles graphics, your 127KB file can turn into a 750MB file pretty quickly.
  4. How much can I trust a external hard drive?

    Hmmm........... it doesn't tell me the manufactuer. Odd. And Pro, it's supposed to be a USB style connection to daisy chain them together. I haven't looked into it totally yet though, I just opened it today. Okay. Work station is a total piecer... but I've decided I'm not going to upgrade...
  5. How much can I trust a external hard drive?

    Well, they advertised it as being able to "daisy chain" together with other Fantom drives, so I thought I could just add on as needed. Now, I guess another question. If I wanted to take it somewhere, is all I do is just turn it off and unplug it? I can't really tell and it has only one more...
  6. How much can I trust a external hard drive?

    So no problem deleting all my customer artwork files off of my work station and just keeping them on my external drive? Reason being my computer has been acting up lately and I'm scared one day it may just quit, AND it's hard drive is getting rather full. So I thought an external would help...
  7. How much can I trust a external hard drive?

    Well, my internal hard drive has been filling up fast so I thought I'd buy an external hard drive to keep all my customer files on (this is my main work station). So I bought a 100GB Fantom Drive, got it connected and ready to go... when I started to sweat. Can I trust this thing to keep all my...
  8. New to this forum

    Welcome! Well, I guess we've kind of already met, huh? Everyone........ this guy is alright.:thumb:
  9. Can someone tell me what this is called?

    Hmmm.... well I can give you what vector images I came up with. If it helps at all. Normally I'd suggest the vector doctor, but this wasn't too hard so I can just send you what I have, and see if any of them work for you. That's okay to do, right Fred? Well, hope so. What file format would...
  10. Can someone tell me what this is called?

    How high quality of a vectorizing job do you need? You do realize that is one heckuva intense image to vectorize, right? I hope you don't plan on cutting it on a plotter? This is about the best I can vectorize it....
  11. This font was on the tip of my tongue....

    Meister? What happened to Master? lol. How about anything close? It's actually not for this job, this is just a vectorized version of his logo. I want the font for myself for a wrap job. Anything kind of close to this? I really like the style.
  12. This font was on the tip of my tongue....

    Um...............(sniffles).............nobody???
  13. Contour problem in X3

    Funny how I never got that problem with 8 or 10......
  14. Contour problem in X3

    That's only for a outline, I'm talking Contour. It changed my outline attributes, but I rarely use outlines as they suck when you want to resize an image. Does the contour tool have an option like that???
  15. This font was on the tip of my tongue....

    I KNOW I've seen this font before, but I just can't seem to place it. Anyone remember what it's called? BTW, like the design? I'm liking it. Just need to lighten up the grey and add some white pinstriping around the red and she'll be ready to roll.
  16. Contour problem in X3

    Well, I can't figure this one out. I've used CorelDraw 8 for several years now, and liked it. Even better than 10 that I got not long after buying 8. But now I've upgraded to X3 and LOVE it. One problem I've got and can't get rid of though is the durn contour tool isn't working properly. In 8, I...
  17. Corporate Identity Assignment

    Well, I had a whole idea/ concept of a name, logo, layout, sign, vehicle graphic, building graphic etc. But then I had real work that had to get done. So I just whipped out something simple. I think if they're going to sell roadkill, they should try to overshadow that with a professional...

  19. New Girl on the Block

    I don't know Mike personally, but I do admire his work. Good stuff. I used to be into airbrushing, but just don't find time for it anymore. It's how I started though. Nothing like a good ole' Badger airbrush, a half dozen cans of House of Kolor paint, and a blank white helmet. Now it's a...
