  1. who has a GC license

    Would you rather the government take big risks with taxpayer money on small companies with unstable financials that could collapse under a large contract?
  2. Mimaki Latex printer

    Exciting stuff, can't wait to watch the industry rapidly shift over the next year or two. Glad HP kicked everyone in the butt and forced another revolution. 4 picoliter drop size is great though I don't exactly have any issues with the 12 on our HP. I do wish we'd get red/green/blue/orange...
  3. Finding the Right RED

    Buy a spectrophotometer that outputs CMYK/RGB/PMS matches, every shop should have one. Or, print a bunch of swatches that are slight shifts from each other and visual match in outdoor lighting conditions. Yay.
  4. Adobe CS 6 coming soon!

    Are you sure it's the entire suite coming out? Usually they release Photoshop a full quarter or more before the suite upgrades.
  5. thoughts on repo-ing wrap?

    No, it's not. At all. Repo a wrap? Vandalizing it with stickers? Potatos in the tailpipe? Remover spray guns? All funny but all put you in the legal hot seat not the client. Send them notices, start charging whatever (legal) interest was in your contract, after 90 days send them to...
  6. Funny neon oopsies

    Really, the Jimmy John's "FREE SMELLS" neon? What's wrong with that one? I always wonder when a site trying to show humor fails to actually see humor. Jimmy John's does an amazing job creating atmosphere at it's franchises. The rest of those are pretty decent, the juxtaposition of Five Guys /...
  7. Online Billing timer

    I like https://www.toggl.com/ though if all you're trying to do is scare clients I guess the OP link works better. I would find designing with that thing ticking and a client over my shoulder freaking out to be stressful and unproductive.
  8. Business Naming

    HostGator is great, I use them for dozens of sites and clients. Namecheap for domains.
  9. Head Count - Who is using social media with their business?

    Use Facebook, LinkedIn and Google+ but only as part of a larger web presence campaign, not as end goals.
  10. Best Wrap Certification

    fixed :thumb:
  11. Help I am stumped

    Bebas Neue, League Gothic
  12. Malwarebytes For Mac?

    osX for the past few years has been losing all the exploit tests at the big security conferences but their market penetration doesn't make sense for malware, of which the point is to infect the most computers possible. It's a matter of market targeting more than os vulnerability these days. That...
  13. Gotta Share this

    You don't work directly off of cloud storage, you work off a RAID NAS. Cloud storage is for offsite redundant backup.
  14. Father teaches daughter a lesson about Facebook

    Guaranteed she's on it anyway and has fifteen million ways to circumvent his wishes. If this guy spent as much time caring about his daughter getting lung cancer from his smoking habit as he did caring about her use of ubiquitous socializing tools he'd be a better parent. Restrictions on...
  15. Why a day.. Vent

    Way to stick to your guns! 3x charge for a rush is about right. Keep up that velvet rope clearly it's working, lots of people in line. :thumb: Love it when sign / vehicle graphic shops take design seriously.
  16. 2 identical flatbed presses - same media profiles?

    Look into getting trained on and implementing a G7 workflow. It's really the best way of achieving consistent color across multiple machines.
  17. Customer Designed Wrap File Size dpi?

    Yes I do and no that's not a big file. Remember we're talking raster elements only really (as the vector will get ripped at the max dpi of the printer). Often a wrap won't have all that much raster content, but I like really smooth gradients and drop shadows. 150ppi is generally fine which is...
  18. How's business?

    Work on your business, not for your business. Humans also need breaks, without breaks and microbreaks your productivity crashes.
  19. The Bad Wrap update

    ...what? Where'd that random and nonsensical insult come from? Joe and Dan both have styles that make the most sense in Illustrator, they're talented people using the right tool for the job. If they were working in a style that made more sense in Photoshop they'd use Photoshop. How is that...
