With that - I agree. Many have lost, or never had the respect when asking - among other things.

Oh what it was to be young! hehehe OP and others will back me on this....we have seen people get hurt for a lot less. :biggrin:

Russell, The GX-24 is a good machine, but yet an entry level machine. The Ioline users that you make reference to are probably using the older "Classic" models - which were excellent workhorses. To cut the fabric materials that you are looking for, you should be looking at machines that...

We do not understand what any of this fuss is about. This gentleman, Garfield, only indicated that he just obtained a job that he had been hoping for, and how happy he was that he did. By looking at his drawing, he definitely has a talent that very few people, especially newbies, have (or will...

I think we can all agree with that comment. In this particular case though, I do not think that Garfield was posting to "us" in general. It appeared as if he was trying to get a message to one of our fellow members - as the original post started with : As for the requests for information...

Arlo, You are quite right, but there is nothing that we can do about it. As a matter of fact - the vendors are more to blame than anybody else, not even the people buying the equipment. It has happenned with vinyl, and soon will happen with the solvent printers. More and more money...

Designsbymtm, I see no point in telling you that being self-employed is not that easy, you already indicate that you know that. Working for yourself has its pros and cons just like anything else. You have shown that you have quite a bit of experience, so we cannot call you an "uninformed...

Garfield, If you really want to make an impression, and it sounds like you do - take the ball and run with it. Just like you did with CAD, invest in some of your own training - this will show some very serious initative on your part. (Be cautious not to "give it all away" to the others...

Garfield - If you know how to run AutoCad, and do 3-D, you have half the battle beat. Now all you need to do is learn how to run that aggravating machine that on ocassion seems to develop a mind of it own. Routers are cool, and so is what they put out. Congrats on your new job.....and the...

Flame Master, By no means is anybody required to have "all around" skills in this business. As a matter of fact, most end up with a sort of niche. Also in some of these larger companies - it is not uncommon to find dedicated people doing a certain job. Think about it, as an owner, you do...

What version format is the original file saved in?

Welcome from Orlando..

Shoprat, This site is very far from being "against newbies". What you will find is that many, if not most, will be extremely helpful BUT will not sugar-coat anything. There is very good reason for this. Everyday 200 people get into the business of making signs and 199 get out of it. It is NOT...

Very interesting Doug. We started using the Bitsream many years ago, due to Windows' limitations and problems, so we cannot say that we have "seen" any further font issues. It is odd that Adobe "created" an issue, with no fix. I, personally, am very curious about typeface managers and...

Exactly! To make it worse - these same girls refer to themselves that way too AND they dig it! Go figure. We would have gotten slapped looong before we could finish the words - or possibly even had a chair or two busted over our heads. Generations do not always see eye to eye BUT the younger...

DO NOT MISUNDERSTAND, because we are not siding with UniqueDecals, BUT "ass" and many other words are used in everyday casual conversation - IN THEIR AGE GROUP. We highly doubt there was any intentional offense intended - although, he and many others, need to learn to adjust their "language...

Searching for artwork is indeed a pain in the butt, especially if you have lots of it! Catalogs help to an extent but not even close - as compared to the time that is consumed. Suggestion.....as Fred states that he will be offering individual pieces, we have all seen the same do the "finding"...

Welcome!

Steve, You are right - it is a dammmmmmm shame. I can most definitely understand where many are coming from - BUT (and you knew there was one) - what about the guy, such as myself that likes to "clean" his machines on a regular basis? One reason for this is that we try a lot of software...

oops...posted in wrong window.
