I've experienced problems with backlit substrates mainly with the "washed out" look. Most of them have a coating on top of a clear film. Use a film that is translucent in itself. Opti-UV Backlit Film (Advantage) is one you may want to try. Edit: You're not using UV. Try Opti-Solve Basic Backlit...

One thing that can help is to rasterize and add blur to it. It's hard to avoid a stepped look to something that is literally made of steps in color.

I'd drop one, alright. Right in my shorts.

When I do artwork and they want the file, I charge accordingly knowing that it is now their art to do with whatever they choose. I would let it go as a live and learn scenario.

Used to work at a place that used one similar to this (same brand, also). This site may give you some info you're interested in. http://www.screenprintingonline.com/Equipment/M&R/renegade_xl_flat_bed_graphic_pre.htm

I was further up. Sort of in line with Peoria.

I was in IL a bit south of Naovoo right on the Mississippi. Great River Road Golf Club.

Hope it works out! I just went on a golf trip. Headed 5.5 hours south to get away from WI weather, and woke up the 3rd day in lots of snow, and it didn't melt away for the rest of the trip. Really turned out to be a waste of time away. At least the first two days were nice. Hit 'em good!

Use curves in Photoshop. Lock the midtones, and raise the quarter-tones. Play around and get more contrast.

This is an outstanding link. Thank you Jon!

Hey! Just noticed we're pretty close neighbors. I live in Muskego & work in New Berlin.

:toasting: CHEERS!

I am not dedicated to the craft, nor do I know anything. Now that you mention it- it's pretty stupid that I paid for a subscription to this forum. Nobody should get involved with anything related to the knowledge base here without first knowing enough to start a forum of their own. This is my...

Ahh... That really ties it together! I'm not going to touch this until I hear from the customer, but I'm certain I'm going to rip off your idea before this is done. :Big Laugh

That should really help the kids save money. There is no way in hell anyone is going to look at their bank account at any time and say, "Wow! since they changed that font, I have $5 more in my bank account than I would have". Savings don't mean anything if they can not be realized.

WOW Rick - that bottom one is awesome!! I really appreciate your input! I figured I should see what he thinks of what I have, and I know it will go through some tweaking. I'm still not sure about the font, and the rest of it is too large. Next time I'll hire you! :wink:

Here is what I submitted. Thank you everyone! From concept to what it is now makes me happy! :thankyou:

Still messing with the color scheme, but you see the direction I took it. It's not quite right, but I'm not quite sure what's bothering me. I'm going to come back to it later. See any obvious influence? :Big Laugh

That's exactly what I started doing, and then I realized it was looking like Charlie Tuna! I'm back to messing around with my original concept. I'm having fun with it.

I LOVE THOSE! Unfortunately for me, you guys already did about the best things that can be done with the initial concept, so I'll probably scrap it! :clapping:
