  1. Microsoft Access... anyone using it?

    I want to hire a temp to do some clerical work for me. Over the years working with Jon Aston of Marketing Partners, Jon and I have discussed e-newsletters, or possible direct mail campaigns, but with very select qualified lists, such as possibly just previous Island Sign clients... or...
  2. please save down an Illustrator CS3 file for me

    Got it gene!! Thanks!
  3. please save down an Illustrator CS3 file for me

    Thanks Pat, I bought it from Dell, & I asked if they had a download option, but they said they didn't. That color wheel deal sounds pretty cool. I just came back to find this post so I could add a link where my clients 2 versions of their logo can be downloaded. I zipped up the color, and...
  4. Roland Brand Vinyl?

    yep... Adobe software costs more from Adobe.com ...that's why I bought mine at Dell.com yesterday.
  5. please save down an Illustrator CS3 file for me

    I finally ordered my upgrade to CS3 today. I resent paying $200 every year and a half just because upgrades exist, so I resist as long as I can. This week I got 2 CS3 files, & one was on an $800 job with a new resident who's designer is in Colorado. Of course I could have made the client...
  6. "Naturally Speaking" speach recognition software

    I bought this software at Costco and it does a pretty good job of typing what I speak. It's not perfect, but since I type slowly, I think I'll get some use out of it. It cost me $50, and I used it to write a three-page letter last week. There are ways to correct spelling with voice commands...
  7. Englishman lost in the States

    welcome nice accent cheerio
  8. Flexi 7.5 and Importing Illustrator Files

    Why are you bringing them into Flexi? Just to send cuts? ...if so, I would set up the cut files as needed in Illustrator if that is the program you are more familiar with. I'm not sure why they group up, & I have little doubt that issue will get resolved, but in the meantime, if you set up...
  9. quick question for pros

    I agree that a few hours is fine, even over night. If I knew I was going to be out of power 2 days, I'd probably buy a generator, but good to know you got away with that Kevin. When I first got my printer, I ran out of ink cartridges & the self-clean cycle won't run when there is an empty...
  10. Routing/painting mask material issues

    great read... hopefully by this time next year I'll be needing this information. One thought I might consider is to let the oneshot cure more then 24 hours. I'm not sure it could be a factor, but I'm surprised you're not having other problems laying down the mask that early. I usually...
  11. I don't like banding!

    that sounds pretty scary. I remember one of the techs who worked on my JV3 did a complex testing process with several rows of a 1/2" lines repeated about every inch or so, and as the printer advanced the media feed out, laying down row after row... there were some that aligned, & some on either...
  12. ExpressClipart.Com ...howzit work?

    thanks, I was just coming back to announce that I made it to the second level of the expressclipart.com computer game, and won access to my purchase. Counter-intuitive to go to my shopping cart & only see it asking for $3.95 again... but now I'll know :)
  13. Zip files

    or if you are running Windows XP, just right click on the file & click on "Send to" and then choose "compressed (zip) folder" Done! Extracting from other .zip files is just as easy, right click. "extract"
  14. ExpressClipart.Com ...howzit work?

    Fred, I want to start by saying what great way of selling clipart that is. I needed to show my client what I could come up with for them & I showed them 3 alternatives from your site. When they confirmed that one of them was suitable, I was able to create a new membership & buy the single...
  15. How to adjust length in Flexi or Corel without changing end radius

    the easy way I do it is to drag a copy out to wherever the other end should be & then weld the 2
  16. Stroke/Outline keeps changing?

    If it weren't for all the flack I'll catch from the Corel fans I'd say just buy Illustrator, because I think it is the industry standard vector creation program for a reason. The "reason" isn't to say that it is superior, it's just different, but only one program can be "the standard" and...
  17. Backing up - Let me ask you this

    20 gigs... the great crash of 2005... I still have a folder called "crash of 2005" and it contains 50% corrupt files that do nothing... 50% files that may open with some or all of the data corrupted. It was an incorrectly set up back-up system that actually caused the deletions. I had paid...
  18. Flexi: how to keep cuts in production manager AFTER cutting...just in case?

    Thanks a lot. I'm glad you took over your n00bie little brothers account dude... you're way smarter then lil' smoke was! :U Rock:
  19. Flexi: how to keep cuts in production manager AFTER cutting...just in case?

    My production manager was set up this way before, & if I ever had a problem with a cut going bad... it was nice to be able to resend it without worrying about recreating the same repeats and spacing. Anyway, I switched CPU's for my rip station & the reinstalled version does not have this...
  20. My Trouble with SAi............

    First, I feel your pain Dustin. I've felt like breaking my phone before in similar situations. On the other hand, as much as I like to rant about the frustrations in life, I think the trend in this thread, until Freds comments, were adding up to a slightly unintentional stacked deck against...
