  1. Need advice on banner installation

    You don't state whether this is for a rather permanent type install or just a temporary. That would be helpful. Super-suckers will do it if it's for a temp.
  2. Font ID help.

    Bingo.
  3. Font ID help.

    Amazing. That's it exactly. Now what do I do. Need only the numbers but we're definetly not Mac here.
  4. Font ID help.

    Hmmm.. That means I may have to "invent" letters 0-9 or see if I can get more samples and scan/vectorize them for this particular client. Drat!
  5. Font ID help.

    This is from a menu board and the client wants to begin using our shop for changes. Anyone recognize it offhand?
  6. Illuminated sign.. best printing option?

    Don't have the XC we have the SP-540V but what we do is this: 1) Set the controls to "return to point of origin". 2) Set profile for Translucent vinyl. 3) Use Oracal's 3850. 4) When the print finishes, hit print again. 5) Laminate as usual. Downside is this. With a twelve foot print, the...
  7. Slow Omega

    Would not be a function of the software. The software can only handle tasks as quickly as the processor will allow.
  8. Financial Planning... Women do it better!

    That is positively a repeatable joke. Thanks a ton. I know exactly where I'm re-telling that one.
  9. Future of this industry?

    Striker, that was a thoughtful reply. Other's comment's too. Craig, can you elaborate a bit on your comment about how the low tech always seems to survive?
  10. Future of this industry?

    Just not the day for it, huh?
  11. Future of this industry?

    Love to hear some commentary on what others believe is the near future (next 5-10 years) of the industry. More specifically: Regarding the public perception of "a sign shop" versus "a copy center". You know, the notion that a person is coming to see "a professional" versus going to some...
  12. Sign Painting Kit?

    Oh...and for wall work, a couple of angled sash brushes. (can be nylon or natural bristle) Cutters, we called 'em. Cut the long part of the handle down four inches or so, so they'll fit in the kit better. Typically you don't need all that much handle.
  13. Sign Painting Kit?

    Oh...and if you haven't yet acquired the "kit" itself, some of the larger tackle boxes will do. Find one that has about the right balance of "free space" and compartmentalized space. Knock out the dividers if needed for specific brushes, etc. Toward the end of my hand lettering career I used a...
  14. question areas

    Would wrap up high enough to prevent the unwrapped portion of the roof from being seen. Would not wrap the underside area you're showing. It will probably fail. Even if you did, I think the wrap's look better without that are being wrapped.
  15. Omega problem! Help!

    Ok, I guess I'll try and look into that first.
  16. Omega problem! Help!

    Nope. The file I'm looking for is not there. Someone here has suggested "System Restore". Will that work?
  17. Omega problem! Help!

    Ok, was making some changes to a file in Omega Composer. Went to "save" it and Composer blew out mid-save. Now when I re-open that file (after re-launching Composer) it says that the "file appears empty, no shapes found" something like that. Is there any way to recover that file? It was a...
  18. Stolen vehicle recovered!

    Actually hadn't thought of that. Good points. But don't want to alarm her. She's in a basement apartment which may not have it's own address. I'll check on her security and those other issues. (thanks for mentioning) No garage door opener as the car is parked on the street in a mixed...
  19. Stolen vehicle recovered!

    Got a point there.
