Hiya Emily, I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for. Are you looking for someone to install signs nationwide? Or are you looking for a tool that will make post hole installations easier? Checkers

Where's howard when you need him :) From what I quickly glanced at the graphtec website, you can control the pressure of the pen/blade to accomodate both cutting and creasing. So, I would guess that it would really depend on the drivers, which are available here...

A shoot from the hip would be Clarendon, modified in one form or another. Checkers

To overly simplify the process, a computer is a tool that you use to make money. When it is not working, you are loosing money. So, you need to buy from someone who will get you back up and running as soon as possible, if and when the system fails. I haven't found anyone local that can do that...

Hiya Edwin, It depends on your plotter. Post your plotter info, and if Old paint can help you out, he would be the one with the knowledge to make it happen :) Anlther good source is www.letterhead.com/ubb. Do a search or browse the archives. Besides OP, there's sevral others that have posted...

I honestly don't know the real answer becasue I don't have a copy of the full license agreement. But, from Steve's original comment you should be ok as long as you follow the terms of the agreement and don't try to run the software on more than one computer at a time. Issues can arise when you...

Hey Gang, Just an F.Y.I. since a lot of you are new here... What you're talking about, in this public forum that is read by sing makers and sign software publishers, is software piracy and against the law. If you read the terms of your license agreements, most, if not all, of them state that...

To expand on what Chris said, it's user preference and what you know well enogh to start making money with. I've used many of them too, but I'm starting my own business with Corel because I know it well and I get a lot of bang for the buck. As my business grows, I will be looking at both gerber...

Yep, awesome machine that can produce portrait quality images on a few types of media, but it's only good for indoor or very short term outdoor. I wouldn't even give it a year outdoors. For most sign and graphics work, it can be overkill in terms of the quality of print. Havin' fun, Checkers

Distorted Serpintine bold :) Checkers

Congratulations Eye! I can share in your excitement, I'm in the same boat. The class was one of the travelling shows and I attended the one hosted in Washington D.C. I want to say the trainers name was Dave(?) A big guy with blonde/light brown hair and if I remember correctly, he wore glasses. I...

I don't recall the instructors name, but the company is Graphic Intelligence Agency, http://graphintel.com/ . Check out their training schedule to see when they'll be in your area. The class I took was color management training that was geared towards Adobe software and HP aqueous inkjet...

Hiya OTP, Did you check out printingdigital.net yet? They have profiles that you can download. Also, you can, sometimes, get iaccurate color by using a profile from a similar printer/media combination. But, I would also suggest option 3 too. It's money well spent. A couple of years ago the...

Hiya Steve, Definitely souvenir and possibly rage. Checkers

I ordered a new rip station last year. Here's a link to what I got... http://www.letterhead.com/ubb-cgi/ultimatebb.cgi/topic/1/33108.html? There's some good comments and links to more info from others too. The computer I bought has the minimum specifications I would recommend for your situation...

Hiya Matt, I may be too late, but I'll answer you questions anyway. It's an OK starter printer, if you know nothing about wide format. It probably will teach you that can go wrong with a printer with a relatively low start up costs. Also, unless you know a little about profiling expect to spend...

Hey, that's not a bad idea guys. When I get things going well, I can decorate the place to look like an old fashioned soda jerk or diner. I really like the fun feeling that you get when you walk into thos places. However, I guess it's probably not that great if it doesn't want to make you buy a...

Oh, duh :) The company that does the training is here... http://www.venturetraining.com/home.html For info on the state run program is here... https://www.pacareerlink.state.pa.us/jobseeker/sea_main.asp I got a little confused because I'm also working on this site... www.oxford-court.com and I'm...

OK Doug, ya lost me. What was link about? Thanks for the vote of confidence guys. I'm sure I can do it on my own, but this program should really be a bonus by connecting me with the right people who can help me start my business right. Plus, the others in this program will need signs. I'm...

Not yet Doug, I'll find out in a few days. I just submitted an application to a special unemployment program that may help me get things going. If I get accepted into the program, I can still collect UC benefits and start/run the business at the same time. The program also offers 69 hours...
