  1. Stick Family Artwork

    I have no issue with offering them, beyond the fact that they are super tacky. The issue I had is that we have people in this business that CANNOT DRAW STICK FIGURES.
  2. Anybody recognize this font?

    I'm not sure, but you could look it up at www.uglyeffingfonts.com
  3. Stick Family Artwork

    That. Would. Be. Epic.
  4. Design help

    Nope. Worse. The new one is illegible due to the conflicting line styles. GET RID OF THE MISTRAL. Also, is the guy's last name "Salon"? Answer that for me and I'll put something together for you to take a look at.
  5. Wrap removal for extra $?

    Here's what will happen if you do flat rate pricing... Word will get around, and people will start bringing you all the crap removals, and give the easy ones to the per hour folks.
  6. Now Hiring.

    HAHAHA!!! Nah - I'm not going anywhere. That being said, I'm sure we all have periods of time where it would be nice to shrug off the ownership responsibility for a while. Of course, I've never had a "job" where I didn't end up thinking the boss was retarded within 6 months. Within another 6...
  7. mounting plastic letters to glass block?

    I was simply referring to the bonding to the glass....And if it's the type of glass block I'm thinking it is, there is not a smooth surface...
  8. Design help

    Advice that you aren't going to want to hear: If a client insists on stupidity, I do not allow them to be MY client. They can go be someone else's headache. What you posted is BAD. The hairdryer icon looks like it belongs on a hastily cobbled together iPod app. It feels out of joint with the...
  9. Wrap removal for extra $?

    Biggest thing is what you just said. Create a waiver stating that you will be held harmless for any damage to the vehicle (paint/body) that may occur during the removal process. Also, that the customer acknowledges that you are not the installer, and are not responsible for damage caused due to...
  10. mounting plastic letters to glass block?

    Drilling into glass would make me SUPER nervous. I think I'd pad mount with silicone, and make the client aware that I may need to come out every year or two to re-mount letters :)
  11. Prints on dibond

    And, last but not least, If you are using the BS to lay the prints, and your work table isn't perfectly level, you're gonna have issues. I recently replaced my table top with a new piece of 3/4" plywood. it has a SLIGHT upward bow in it. I can no longer use the BS to lay prints.
  12. Now Hiring.

    Alas...If I felt like moving to Colorado, and working for someone else...... lol.
  13. Need advice from one of you experts please.

    OP, Again, please understand, I at least am not trying to spew negativity. I'm trying to give you a dose of reality. You said you've already sold 2 wraps? What prices did you quote? Did you get just blanket approval from those clients that they were gonna let you wrap their vehicles, no matter...
  14. Need advice from one of you experts please.

    I have yet to see any hatred. There has been annoyance. Even some hostility. I mean, when these guys come in acting like this is the easiest business in the world, it's insulting to those of us who have paid our dues and actually learned to be professionals. If this guy had $500,000 to get this...
  15. Need advice from one of you experts please.

    Listen hoss, I don't know you. You may he a great guy. Gonna let you in on a secret. Adam (coloradosigns) has one of the more successful wrap based shops you're gonna find anywhere. He's trying to help you. You come in here asking for advice and you are getting it from people who have done this...
  16. Need advice from one of you experts please.

    Another guy who thinks thus biz is easy....He obviously isn't interested in reality. So, here's a post with what he wants to hear... Man! You are AWESOME! Let me tell you what no one else will. Wraps are super easy to do, and so profitable that to might as well bs printing the cash! Oh yeah -...
  17. 60 Minutes on Steve Jobs... aaah that's better!

    I would agree with that. That's the thing with psychedelic and psychotropic drugs. They aren't addictive, and if not abused, studies have shown that they open up entire areas of the brain that lay dormant in non-users - and those areas remain somewhat accessible even after the drug is out of the...
  18. 60 Minutes on Steve Jobs... aaah that's better!

    Just a clarification - Xerox did not invite Jobs to look at the "Lisa". The Lisa was an Apple product that Jobs named after the daughter that he abandoned. Xerox did, however, invent the GUI interface and the mouse. I purchased the Jobs biography yesterday and am about 1/3rd through it...
  19. Whats vinyls you using for motocross graphics

    +2,000,000 Convex.
  20. Reselling at quantity

    Just so you are aware, and I fully understand your local economy would bs different than mine, but for 250 4'x7 banners, we would be at roughly $2.50/sf ifthe finish was simple grommets, no hemming/taping.
