Letting customers design their own stuff is a good way of not learning to do it yourself.
That way you can blame them for the visual pollution you will be making.
You do need spellcheck.

Nice font Vinylman! hahaha
Two of my all-time fave soundtracks are O Brother Where Art Thou and Cold Mountain.
Another good one is A Clockwork Orange.
I rarely listen to the radio.

I have had really good luck using Oracal 8510.
They make silver or gold, and you can choose from fine or coarse.
I have been pleased with all of them.
And if it works for me, it would work for anyone.

It's a pity that after doing all that work with background fills and textures that you stretched/squished the font to fit the shape and made it very hard to read.
And you could have at least made the thicknesses in the eyelash initials uniform.
And uploaded pix to the site rather than just...
You might try any of these:

Well you did ask for input.
The thing about doing signs for schools (I have done this myself) is you usually get a damn crayon sketch from the star student, and are forced to replicate it.

With a new one you get (I think) a 2-year warranty.
I would definitely get the new one.
See if you can get them to throw in a media basket.
Love....Jill
You just have to be really careful.
I have had this happen too. And I only did not use 3M once. (and that was only after 5 minutes of trying to weed engineer grade Oracal, never did stick it)

Subscribe to SignCraft, you get a free pricing guide with it.
That would be for starters.
Estimate or GraphicsCalc (or whatever it's called. the guy is a member here) are good options too.
But I do not charge by the square foot, I haven't for ages.
I know how much money I have myself in...

I got mine from N Glantz because they are so local to me, but you might be able to get it for less money as listed in the above link.
Work your hiney off then enjoy the profit.
Hope your machinery doesn't let you down.
I was supposed to do a sign for someone today who was in a big hurry but did not know what they wanted on their sign, who did not email me about it or call me about it but you know damn well they will be mad...
I ran a 4E (the 4B's younger sibling) with Win98SE and GA 6.2 until three weeks ago.
Do yourself a favor and upgrade to a Graphtek CE5000-60.
It comes with software which cuts via Corel. Upgrade that while you are at it too.
You will not believe how fast it is and how much nicer it weeds, and...
That's a hard situation but there is only one real answer, fire the employee.
The employer will probably have to pay unemployment to the guy, so he won't be broke right away.
There are options for feeding the kids (innocent victims) and maybe the wife can be tracked down for child support. It...
