We snatch up the college-age children of our clients. I'd rather teach them how and what I want done than have someone come in with experience. So far, so good. Maybe start talking to your customers to see if they know anyone looking for job. There is a whole host of unemployable art students...

i love you all. thank you.

And I can't think. Please help. Thank you very much.

NJ Represent! Welcome.

We use R-tape's paint mask with R-tape application tape (high tack!) and we don't have any problems. We go through a LOT of paint mask.

We used to have this problem... I think we solved it by being busy, or at least appearing to be busy. Try really hard to not give them any time to talk or engage you in conversation. There is literally a hospital across the street from us, with a large psych ward AND methadone clinic. So we...

Yep. We don't even know how to use registration marks, we just use our own "laser eyes" to set it up the cuts. We can quickly and very accurately manually set up media for contour cuts on the graphtec. Its awesome.

I'm not finding anything on Distributor Central, but I'm also not that familiar with it, and its givign me a headache trying to search for this product. I don't even know if I can get a plain 6 oz rocks glass. Any help is appreciated!

Its actually worse than that... but this was such a straight forward job, Name, Phone Number, Tag line. Anyway, my husband is sitting down with her at the computer right now, I'm trying to hear what she is saying.... she might have just apologized! I'm pretty sure she changed the entire layout...

Yeah, I think after this revision I'm going to start charging. I tell everyone they get two revisions, after that I charge. I've actually never had to charge anyone for revisions in the past. It doesn't usually take 5 tries to get a set of doors completed.

We get a simple truck lettering job... reproduce a logo that is one word in Helvetica Bold Italic (with an extra bit of skew) that has gradients and a drop shadow and a tagline in eurostile, and one small graphic element. Its going on a black truck, and the gradient is black and green, and it...

Thanks for the lead... I just called them, they "phased them out" a few years ago. I think its going to be the Hanes 4 Pack!

I've been using Sherwin Williams All Surface Enamel lately with good results... but I just switched from One-Shot a few months ago, and I haven't used it with vinyl yet. So I don't know if this will solve your problems.... I do like it though, and the fact that I can just go pick up a quart when...

Hi, I have a client requesting black and /or grey basic ribbed undershirts that we are going to have silk-screened with discharge ink. The only thing I can find is a 4 pack of hanes undershirts... I don't have a problem using these 100% cotton tanks, I just want to make sure they will work with...

That's Just the Way Its Got To Be! I had a client come in with some artwork for a sign. I'm all excited now when people bring me "artwork," I'll print whatever crap you have! Anyway, they were telling me that they wanted something more viable from the road... So I took their print out and...

We loosely roll it (graphic side out) and then put it in a bucket (large rubbermaid storage container, no lid). We love buckets. I guess you could also use a large garbage can. You just need something that will allow it to unroll enough to fill the container.

OMG I'm laughing so hard right now. This job is unique in that its for a very small franchise, the franchisee hired me, but everything has to be approved by the owner of the franchise... Now, I've done work for the franchise before, but they are such a pain that I won't work directly for them...

I quoted this job high. Its a bunch of little things, most of which are simple (putting their logo on the door, etc.) This isn't even a big deal, time wise, it just looks stupid. I'm still making money on it :)

A few years ago, a client requested a 10ft x 1ft banner to hang under her awning to advertise her specials. It was a little tricky, but we got everything to fit nicely and still be ledgible. I send her the layout, and she is fixated on the fact that "SPECIALS" is not written across the top...

I seriously want to cry. I literally just got a tear in my eye. And it was installed on March 1. grrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh. I literally spent 6 months contemplating this freaking machine. SIX MONTHS. I never want to buy equipment again.
