  1. How to create a e-mail list?

    Guys...... I KNOW about the whole SPAM thing. I am NOT going to spam people. This isn't even for my graphics business! It's for my promotions business. People sign up to get on my e-mail list to see when the next event is going to be. I'll e-mail them with updates on where stuff is...
  2. How to create a e-mail list?

    Thanks Replicator. But here's a question, how do I make it so that each person that receives the e-mail, does NOT see everyone else's addresses? Isn't just putting everyone's e-mail in the CC line still show everyone's e-mail address?
  3. How to create a e-mail list?

    Ok, this is a very amateur question, but how do you create an e-mailing list? I want to send out promotion e-mails 2-4 times a month, but not sure how to create a list. Here's the details. I'm using Outlook Express. I want to send it out as one e-mail, to around several hundred clients, but...
  4. How do I make columned lists???

    Okay, I should've specified... I'm making dealer forms and price sheets, so I need to have columns for a 8.5 x 11 print. I like how excel lays them out, but am I just dumb or can you NOT print all of those lines??? edit: oh wow..... talk about being really...
  5. How do I make columned lists???

    To put it simply, I want to make a bunch of squares, in columns, to put my pricing information into. I don't care what program, I have Corel, Adobe, Scanvec, Flexi, Word, Paint... I don't care. I just want to know how to make them! Here's an example from the good guys over at Color-on-Demand...
  6. Fisrt job..What is the going rate?

    $65 a door, $80 for the tailgate, $75 per truck bed side. So it comes out to be around $300 in my book for intermediate vinyl. Just a ball park though, details could throw that price off by several hundred... possibly.
  7. Getting into Vinyl cutting

    Excuse me? I wasn't dissing on anyone, just Rolands poor cutter system. Even the Roland dealers I've talked to say I won't need the cut system that much, and the best idea would to be just buy a seperate cutter. Main reasons being: 1. The cutter is slower than most name brand plotters, and...
  8. Getting into Vinyl cutting

    The Rolands are one of the few that "print and cut". And it's a joke IMHO. Most printers do just that.... print. A few will contour cut. For most folks, that means using a seperate plotter (like me). If you can, look for a PC1100 like someone else mentioned, or an old Graphtec FC series...
  9. Getting into Vinyl cutting

    A cutter and a plotter is the same thing. It cuts out shapes in solid colored vinyl that you buy on a roll. A printer lays down the color, but doesn't do any cutting. Just like a desktop printer... only way bigger. A printer will put you back atleast 13K, while you could probably find a used...
  10. Do you hold Merchant Members to a higher standard?

    I'll buy product if it works. Who cares if the owner is pushy. Especially if others push him. I find myself not caring if the owner if Toyota is a jerk, why should I care if Rapid Tac is or is not?
  11. I Got A Get Well Present Today......

    OP back in his biker days....
  12. Want some FREE

    I've been using the site for months. Can't see any problems yet? I did notice the google ads.... maybe that's enough to pay for it? Who knows? Just thought I'd throw in my $0.02. Everything's been working fine for me.
  13. Serious cutting issues with Graphtec!

    Tried re-adjusting the roller positions... that helped. Oh, and got ahold of Sign Warehouse. Looks like they'll be helping me work it out. Kudos guys.
  14. Serious cutting issues with Graphtec!

    No, haven't called Graphtec yet. It's one of them re-branded Signwarehouse plotters, but I can't seem to get ahold of Sign Warehouse. Calling never gets anywhere, and their online tech support doesn't work. So unless that changes in the next day or two, I suppose I do have to go straight to...
  15. Serious cutting issues with Graphtec!

    Dumb machine..... Makes me want to go buy a flatbed plotter, so I don't run into these stupid problems anymore!!! BTW... still haven't got it figured out.
  16. New here, from Oreogn

    Right on. Dude, I'm the same age. But I'm the boss around here. lol. I have my own business. Same programs too..... nice. And I'm just a bit north in Vancouver, WA. Looks like we gotta hook up some time.:wink: Welcome to Signs101

  19. New Here, Doin' Vinyl Since 1998

    HAHA, 128 posts before I finally stepped in. Mr. Signedmylifeaway..... you started this thread with saying everyone will probably hate you. You have already accepted that, I don't need to drill it into your skull anymore. You also admitted to being a bottom of the barrel guy with...
  20. Exporting from X3

    Try exporting as ai. X3 is not compatible with a LOT of programs. It just doesn't export very well. I can't tell you why, I can only tell you what it does. Try exporting as ai. 8. That works good for me. If not that, then just start trying other formats....
