  1. Just took the plunge and purchased a new shop

    This, vB's search function is terrible just use the Google site search parameter as quoted. Note that it won't pick up non-public forum results.
  2. Onyx vs. Caldera

    Learning curve is pretty small on both RIPs, if you can use a computer you can learn them pretty quickly. How deep you'll get into it depends on your level of technical color management knowledge and your experience with various workflows but both can be run very simply. The first software RIP I...
  3. Writing off vehicle mileage when you have vehicle advertising

    Agreed, small business is so much easier when you leverage modern software for just these types of purposes. In the past I would have said "don't bother tracking a mixed use vehicle, too much work for the payout" but with tools like Expensify most of the work is done for you. Cross platform...
  4. It's come to this. Drumming up business

    If you're sitting around try running and learning Google Adwords campaigns and make sure all your web directory and social listings are up to snuff, etc. (Yext.com is a nice tool for that though has a (reasonable) cost). Remember, marketing is a cross-channel affair.
  5. new image viewer on mouse-over

    Don't be the customer that when a change is made goes "yes but what about THIS little change" when it's really a huge change that would require a lot of work. Fred's just enabling a prebuilt modal image plugin for vBulletin you're asking for a custom solution, way different scope.
  6. Just took the plunge and purchased a new shop

    Sounds like you're going to need another 3-4 employees and a sales guy. We had an architect draw out plans for a shop with a similar footprint but I'm uncomfortable posting the images online, show your space and we'll all be happy to give you feedback.
  7. Storage Spaces in Windows 8

    More or less what has been in Windows Server for a while combined with Windows Home Server but that UI is way too complicated for any consumers to use it. No one even uses Libraries now and that's the same sort of abstraction metaphor and Home Server barely sold any units even though it's rather...
  8. new image viewer on mouse-over

    I just open them up in multiple tabs using right click or control click...
  9. good use for old encyclopedias

    We exhibited him a few years ago at the museum I worked at, interesting stuff. Not the only one working with books in that way but very cool, especially in person. Hard to get a feeling for them in images, need to see them in the round.
  10. How come?

    I'm not a fan simply because modal boxes shouldn't be triggered on mouse over, they should require a click.
  11. Customer quote of the day

    Just your use of language, The Way Thing Are, chattel, pleasure of proprietors...pointless topic to debate, turns into religion and concept of man before long, super pointless on the internet. Just found your use of language...amusing.
  12. My brand new custom lobby display from SD&F

    Good decision :thumb:
  13. It's come to this. Drumming up business

    Is that where the sign is? In the middle of a field in front of an IHOP? Who are the customers, children of the corn in from the field for brunch? ;) Nice idea, should do a bunch of them, put them all over the area. Make it a thing.
  14. Customer quote of the day

  15. not the way i want my mornings to go at work.

    Blech, my dog as a kid laid down on a lure more than once. Fishermen would hook our trees and just cut the line, dropping the lure into our backyard. When people ask why I don't fish when I grew up on a lake that's one of the reasons I give them. Luckily he never tried to eat one, that sounds...
  16. Shop Music?

    Music: Electro House, Dubstep, Brostep, Mashup, Plunderphonics, Glitch Podcasts: NPR, TWiT network, Slate, Sitepoint and a multitude of entrepreneurship, marketing and design casts
  17. For anyone looking for a good backup solution

    Even with that connection you could incrementally upload quite a bit every night. 500GB for your entire company history indicates that you aren't generating all that much data daily. CrashPlan Pro (business grade) for example is $7.50 per computer/month, unlimited storage (my best guess at the...
  18. For anyone looking for a good backup solution

    It will depend on the NAS and what software it includes. Most, if not all, NAS are browser controlled for setup. The UI can vary a bit as models improve and comparing the control UI is something to consider between brands and models. It's not something you log into all that frequently once it's...
  19. 12 color?

    The Epson 11880 is an aqueous printer, I think Josh is looking for solvent, uv or latex. Only one I know of on the market is the 8 color Epson ecosolvent GS6000, as mentioned. Josh if you are looking for a 12 color aqueous the Canon imagePROGRAF iPF9100 is your best bet.
  20. Holding small pieces while wrapping?

    There's this new stuff on the market called tape, works pretty well
