  3. anyone using a pen tablet?

    my wacom tablet collects dust for 6 months at a stretch, but then I end up using it to trace some line art if I want to get a limited node count quickly and easily. On simple shapes I can redraw over a scan... but if something is complex, vectorizing a scan usually ends up with a multitude of...

    external key, mouse and monitor on laptop... mouse "times out"

    thanks guys, when I was trying to give all the info that might help in this post... right when I added the word "cheap" in front of USB hub, I realized that might be the source of the trouble. I have a powered hub at the office, not in use... so I'll bring it home & try it out.

    external key, mouse and monitor on laptop... mouse "times out"

    I've been meaning to ask about this for a few months... my HP laptop (running Vista ) is connected to an external monitor mouse and keyboard. The mouse and keyboard are on a cheap USB hub (along with a printer & an external hard drive) The problem is half the time when I walk away from the...

  10. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    When I started working for a vinyl sign shop 17 years ago... vinyl banners were the cheapest thing available, at $5/sq. ft. 7 years later when I began working for myself, I sold (one color - no art)banners for $5/sq. ft. Then over time it went up to $6, and later up to $7 This price is...

    welcome to the boards!

  12. Cutting through the backing paper

    I'll bet PMG is right on the money with this one. If you are importing the file into whatever program you cut out of, many times an imported files has 2 or even 3 copies of each contour. As PMG says, check for this, it sounds like the issue, since it's not an issue on tests, or other files

  13. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    I agree with you DandT... 10% is too much unless you don't trust any other form of payment & use this ploy to avoid telling them you don't trust them. Cash doesn't save me anymore then the credit card fee, because these days, I report all my earnings, & pay all my taxes... ...but even...

  14. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    too late... can't sew it back! :Oops: Thanks Karyn... we needed someone who won't pull any punches to wake some of these people up! (I thought I used to be one of them someone's ...but true to form, you have upped the ante :cool1: ) Also, speaking from experience, many clients take pride...

  15. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    I quoted $60 ea for a handful of double face 18x24's last week... simple one-color, text only.. that particular guy bought from me once for his new franchise haircut place, & I also noticed signs he bought elsewhere... he left saying the price was too high. Good riddance! I only wasted 30...

  16. anyone buy a printer from matt c?

    are some people so shallow & aimless that the continuation of this thread, beyond their own desire to discuss it, imposes a gravitational pull exceeding their own free will? Get over it people... some people will always have something to say about matters that you would walk away from. Walk...

  17. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    so twice as big, same price. OK, just checkin' ...when I saw 18x24, I thought maybe I wasn't the only one who thought the prices in this thread were low. I do realize the freight & higher cost of living push my costs and my prices up.... but I do read about mainland prices on here all...

  18. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    ...but for 24" x 36" double face?

  19. What would you charge for these yard signs?

    wow... the world is sooo different in other places I would never have to work that hard for $300 Holy smokes! I charge those prices for single face 12" x 18" (less for 12 pcs though) at $24 ea, that's $2/sq. ft. and a lot more time laying down vinyl (cut or printed) then if it was a big...

  20. Does Mamaki Print Greys?

    no, I guess I'll retract my tongue-in-cheek remarks... I've noticed a lot of praise for the Mimaki by a wide variety of industry professionals. When Barry, the owner of printingdigital.net traded up to one from his Roland, I thought that was a bit of a testimonial of sorts. I am...

    spoken by the owner of a Mutoh Valuejet 48"... ...sounds like jealousy to me :Big Laugh (I guess you just aren't very experienced with Mimaki's then huh?)
