just tell them you do 7 see where it gets you. If the deal is good enough, the buyers will materialize... plus you will have the first other 5 people all helping you find the other 20 so they can save some money. I'm not too optimistic, so I don't think a lot of energy should be spent getting...

Just to be sure my own post was not misunderstood, I have absolutely no negative feelings, thoughts, or words against "this guy" First, here is a brief excerpt edited out of the middle of my last post, the end of my post went on to critique OTHER new members with far less enthusium & self...

ok... I'll help I'll help by pointing out that "the post below" means nothing... by the time people find this one, that one could be below... above... or gone from view entirely. so now that you started a new post you might want to hurry up & edit your opening comment to give us half a...

I don't know if any attempt to stop the onslaught at the gates of signs101 is possible. We will agree that we can't stop the onslaught into the trade... but of the many that start at the beginning... most will rely on their own dedication & be self motivated. In their search for resources, some...

$50.00!

wow...was afraid I'd have drawn a lot of heat on this one. Glad I didn't. Shoprat, you're gonna make it! You got thick skin & a good attitude. Welcome! Bob, can I work for you for $5K? That is a decent offer. Based on what I've seen of your work, & your business sense, even I could justify...

get a job at a sign shop would be my suggestion. ...too many people buy a cheap set-up & want to start making signs, but most of the knowledgable & successful sign professionals here have years, if not decades in this trade. Yes we all started as newbies & had to learn somewhere... so some...

ahh yes, the old quality vs. quantity dilemma is affecting your production... If you are constantly perusing 50,000 fonts to achieve the quality designs you strive for, this chore most certainly cuts into the quantity of your productive output... what you need, IMO... is a serious case of...

OK, this is sounding helpful. I can build ONE collection of fonts in ONE place (like a mapped network storage device) I can purchase & install Typograf (or other) on my 4 workstations. I can group the massive collection of fonts into subgroups (like 62 system fonts for example) I...

thanks guys. I had some late afternoon obligations that kept me from filling out the initial post all the way up to date, so here is the rest of the info. I do always install fonts through the control panel>fonts>install new font ..but for removing fonts, I just went to windows explorer...

I discovered an issue I hadn't heard about earlier. I had typed up a post, then wanted to troubleshoot a little further before opening up a discussion, so I copied it & saved it. It ended up corrupting into dozens of text blocks instead of one long paragraph, so it is not so easy to post it...

3 hours!! ...no offense intended, but you must have needed the practice anyway. Next time, if you have a 3 hour vectorizing job, & want to look at alternatives... don't forget to try out the vector doctor. he is a menber 7 a merchant here. I have used his services numerous times with complete...

2 reasons the Roland thermal machines have drawn a lot of bad press is the banding from 1/4" foils compared to 11.8" widths on the edge, & the extremely high square foot costs of the foils. Other then that, some talented people have donw well with at least one of Rolands thermal machines, so if...

well... nothing lasts forever, but thermal does last far better then unlaminated inkjet output. I've been thermal printing almost every day for 7 years and never laminated anything. I've had no complaints either. It's true that it will fade faster then layered vinyl, so you tell your client it...

thanks guys.. I doubted it could be there & not work by itself... but the reply to pinkhorse sounded like another thing that usually works without any special attention... so I got my hopes up.

Have you seen our merchant member Barry's Digital Flames CD?

If pinkhorse won't mind... I'd like to intrude with a signlab question for Gear or anyone. I don't really use signlab myself, but I bought the latest version a year ago because my then-new employee had 3 years experience with it & after a few months on the team, I felt that his production...

actually, I just might come up with a video one of these days... I heard about this free trial of software that creates a video of whatever you do on your computer. The purchase price is steep... but the trial is free & you can download it, but that probably starts your 30 day clock right...

oh, that copy.. I sold that to some dealer on ebay :rolleyes:

hey Brad... aren't you that guy from the Brady Bunch? ...no, wait, it was Lassie right? yeah, you played Jimmy (or was it Opie?) :wink:
