  1. Dennis Hopper RIP

    Ah, first Art Linkletter, then Dennis Hopper. Could Yet Another death trifecta among lower tier luminaries be at work here? Who will occupy the third corner of this particular triade de la mort?
  2. Yellow discoloring for first few passes

    You might want to try the obvious before you descend into a frenzy of dubious damper swapping and other obscurities. Fact: Yellow starts out contaminated. Fact: Contamination goes away after a few head passes. Obvious conclusion: Whatever is contaminating the yellow is a product of having...
  3. Researching Digital Printers

    Why do you feel that anyone is under any obligation whatsoever to 'contribute to the topic'? To sum up... You want to do wide format digital printing so you drift into these waters and make your pleading. You seem to be a Serious Specimen**. From your inability to ask a good...
  4. Ecosol Black only longevity

    It will outlast the banner material. Just like most any other color of ink.
  5. Git R Done font suggestions?

    Here's a quickie rodeo banner I did a few years back with that same awful name. I used Playbill.
  6. body emblem holes

    If you replace the badges, like you should, when you're done with whatever it is you're doing then there will be no holes.
  7. Cutting problems

    Install a new blade. Cast media tends to be a bit more rubbery than calendered. A dullish blade that is sufficient to cut the more rigid calendered can skip and pull on cast media tearing as well as cutting. Why do people seem reticent to change blades? They're consumables. When a plotter...
  8. Adding customers to your mailing list?

    Why would it not be legal? It's public information. There's precious little legislation enjoining you from sending something to someone who may not want it. This is as it should be, the alternative is a straight line path to absurdity. As far as being a good or bad idea, you have to...
  9. I dreamed about bob last night....

    Perhaps because Richard Crenna was Walter Denton on both the radio and TV versions of Our Miss Brooks.
  10. I dreamed about bob last night....

    If the truth be know I bear a resemblance to M. Emmet Walsh and have the voice of Richard Crenna doing Walter Denton. Or so I'm told.
  11. My First Banner

    OK, first get rid of most if not all the supporting text, no one cares. Lose the Copperplate Gothic, it's a sure indicator of an amateur working at full capacity. Use something from the same family as your business name or at least something a bit more harmonious with it. Now move your...
  12. Font id please

    'got' is 'Enviro'.
  13. tavern logo and graphic

    No matter what you do they all look like address plaques for someone named 'Tavern'. That what comes with trying to use numbers as names. Why don't you try expressing it in Roman numerals? That would be MCCI. Apropos of nothing, when you chose a typeface to put on an arc, or most any other...
  14. Quick Question: Mixing 3M 7125 with Oracal 751. Any issues?

    While there may be some micro differences in gloss out of the box there are no mechanical issues. You can mix and match with gay abandon. Even any gloss differences, trivial thought they may be, will go away after a few days out in the weather.
  15. Customers banner...What do you think?

    You might try to point out to the client that the object of this project is to generate business. In order to do that it's his potential customer base that must be, if not pleased, at least not disgusted at the sight of it. Whether he likes the way it might look or not is a product of his...
  16. glue removal

    Orange peel solvent. It's the base and active ingredient for most of the proprietary adhesive removers, it's more effective, it won't harm other finishes, and it's a damn sight cheaper.
  17. Outline

    Have you given serous consideration to reading and attempting to actually comprehend the manual, primitive though it might be, that came with Flexi?
  18. Falcon Jr photo printing problems

    I'd go for totally flawed. Of course, by grabbing a corner in Flexi and shrinking it down you increased the resolution by a factor of 8. Thus the image you ended up with was approximately 576 ppi, way too much for proper printing. In order to make a 48x32 image 6x6, actually 6x4 would be...
  19. Falcon Jr photo printing problems

    3504x2336 at 72ppi is about 48"x32". How did it get to be that size? What was it's original size and resolution? Did someone just grab a corner and pull or did they use a proper tool like PhotoZoom Pro or whatever to increase the size? I have no idea what a 'PhotoSuite.Image' might be. But...
  20. Sign post remover?

    It'll work on anything you can wrap a chain around. Length doesn't matter, just jack it out as far as it will go then release the chain, drop the lip, and start jacking some more. It will pull cement footers as well, the problem is getting the base of the jack close enough to the post and not...
