  1. Caveat Emptor: (Thinking of buy Wasatch Softrip?)

    And that he's already been given, you seem to keep forgetting that point. We just disagree on the level of customer service we expect merchants we do business with to provide, no big deal.
  2. Vector Logo Size

    I typically start with a 12" x 18" page size. When I first started using Illustrator that size would fill my screen. I got used to using it and can guess stroke weights and letter sizes fairly accurately based on years of using the same default size. It's one in an ever growing bag of utterly...
  3. Keeping tabs on employees

    A picture of your boss standing there staring out at them.
  4. Caveat Emptor: (Thinking of buy Wasatch Softrip?)

    His point is completely valid. Just because some companies choose to replace software does not mean that all companies have to. Their only obligation was to provide you ONE working copy. Hell, look at all the threads here about charging customers every time they come back wanting the logo...
  5. Jacking up a boat off the trailer

    Mosh is still the only guy I know getting rich in the farming business...and he's just doing it part time.
  6. any way to view eps files

    +1 for Extensis ....now if somebody will just figure out how to view .ai files....!
  7. How long would it take you????

    It would take me about an hour because I don't have Jiggy Roman (yet) so I'd have to vectorize it. It would take less than five minutes to recreate it if I did have it. Just drop the jpeg into Flexi, type in the copy and stretch to match.

    No.... :corndog: + :bushmill: =
  9. thoughts on new signcraft

    I agree with you on one hand and don't on another. I'm still a huge fan of dynamic, vector based graphics on vehicles (see Dan Antonelli) because of the simplicity and legibility. On the other hand there is a pretty large segment of society that thinks barbed wire, treadplate, lizard skin and...
  10. Jacking up a boat off the trailer

    Mosh, is there any water in Nebraska to even turn a 42' boat around in?
  11. Are you out of your mind....part 2

    His old signs are MDO and from three to five years old. Only two of the panels were worth keeping for anything but I stacked them...along with the rotted panels, on the side of the building so he can have them. I don't want to grease them, heck I'll help load them and 10 more if he'll come get...
  12. Are you out of your mind....part 2

    Yesterday I got chewed out by a wanna-be sign guy who waited until the last minute to order his signs and tried to make it my fault that it wasn't going to happen. Today I get a guy from a new real estate company call me pissed off that I charged them installation for driving around for four...
  13. Time to renew our yellow-pages ad

    I've got four phone books at the shop and two here at home that are still in the shrink wrap from last May.
  14. REPLACEMENT Cutter Teflon strip

    I replaced the strip in one of my Summas 18 months ago with sandblast mask (the hard-ish green stuff, not the rubbery stuff) in an emergency. Been working like new since then.
  15. Pin Up.

    http://www.timetunnel.com/cgi-bin/ttunnel/royalty-free/info?pg=AM&bt=1&action=T There are also a lot on istockphoto.com Most of the "vintage" looking ones are actually photographs but there are some pretty good illustrations, too.
  16. Hey! Jill's sign in SignCraft!

    Good article...especially the part where she tells how she did the aluminum flashing thing then says not to do it that way. :ROFLMAO:
  17. this really annoys me (what else is new)

    My bank has an automated answering service that picks up no matter what line or branch you call all in an effort to direct your call to the automatic telephone banking bot. For me to actually get my banker I have to go through 11 different voice prompts to finally get to a live operator at the...
  18. Wholesale with china

    If I remember right wasn't there somebody here who was importing those Chinese "disposable" gas powered scooters a few years ago who got really screwed over on a container full of them?
  19. Wholesale with china

    Buy Merican...Hire Mexicans.
  20. Stamps.com must die!

    So I signed up for stamps.com last January thinking it would be a good idea. For a few months there it worked great, I could just print postage for everything and send it out. Our mail route got changed, though, so instead of the mailman coming by at 4:00 so he could pick up that days shipping...
