  1. I want to cut my own designs

    That was fairly coherent for OlPaint.. me thinks he is not on a chlorophyl rush or has the wheatgrass jitters.... Anyways, I did this quickie thing a while back for a newbie... I modified it a little bit for this, maybe this will make sense to you.... oh and I did have lipstick on that pig, but...
  2. I want to cut my own designs

    Before you buy any software, what are you going to do? If all you are going to do is cut vinyl for a while then Illustrator or Corel with your Flexi Starter is fine. If you want to sub out printing later, see what is preferred by the merchants, it will probably be Illustrator or Corel. If you...
  3. I want to cut my own designs

    If it's Flexi Starter, it does not have Autotrace and weaker drawing tools. I don't even think Amiable mentions it in their site... if you remember years ago it's equal to the old bridge program Flexi-Cut.
  4. I want to cut my own designs

    Which version or Flexi 8.... I am thinking it's Flexi Starter.....
  5. Ills white channel?

    Have you tried making a spot white, then I'm thinking you overprint the white (go to WINDOW>ATTRIBUTES>select white, hit overprint)
  6. Another one

    The "V" is called "Textile", you might be able to find it as a freebie somewhere but it's an Apple Systems font.
  7. The Polished Turd Contest - VOTE NOW!

    I wouldn't mind losing work to Tiki, heck the more really good local designers you know, the more you can throw work too when you get too busy and not look like a bonehead if you had sent it to a hack.

  9. Another copyright question

    That is covered under this... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_Home_Recording_Act You might be talking "Fair Use" There are conditions where you can use fair use, but just because money is not involved may not cover the defense of fair use. It might be a "technical" infringement. Legally...
  10. Another copyright question

    A reproduction whether printed or painted is a reproduction. It is infringement. One can argue till you are blue in the face if you should do it or not. That decision is a personal one...
  11. Another copyright question

    Technically, no you can't really do that. I am trying to find a link regarding that and the Orphan Works legislation and the argument that it should be lightened up like the outlawing of all works for personal use. The orphan Works bill has major flaws, but the current law seems a little too...
  12. Another copyright question

    You can do it in the US using these guidelines... Regulations for Reproducing U.S. Currency Images Whether you're talking about doing an informational handout for your commercial customers, doing in-house training, or using images of money in your advertising, you'll want to know what...
  13. Another copyright question

    So stealing is okay as long as you do not get caught. It was brought to my attention a few months ago that having a client sign off on a release of liability may make matters worse, as you knew it was wrong to do it. The safest and only answer to give is get permission or do not do it. Last...

    Go to the next one, but first tell us who did these, some really cool and funny stuff.
  15. I need help!

    Some of these comments may or my not be true, there are some people here and on this thread who are trying to understand where the person is coming from. And there are some lame comments, ignore them. We do get a lot of newbie traffic that has turned on experienced ones too. I don't think it's...
  16. Newb in Cali...Very Newb

    Signbydale and DTFuqua... it was tough reading this but i know how you both feel. I also take care of my wife full time and is confined to bed most of the day, I do all the nursing care 24/7, plus I have 4 kids at home. DTFugua, the biggest difference is I have been in the business for a while...
  17. Sharing art with Competition??

    I do... 99% is sign and logo design work only... you are assuming it is "industry standard" that design work is given away to sell signs, it is not. it is a sales tool that has a lot of risk to the sign shop and only benefits for the client. You need to get paid enough for the design either...
