  1. Help installing a new printer!

    You're going to need a few hundred feet of steel cable, a clock tower, lightning strike prediction tables and a DeLorean.
  2. phone lines down again!!!

    I maintain that wireless is good for small shops (two people, max) but a place that has multiple departments and a full staff needs a centralized shop system in addition to cell phones.
  3. Where to Begin? Color issues....

    What do you mean not rely on Postershop so much? You calibrate the media profiles that Postershop uses! You should call the vendor that sold you the machine and Postershop and get some training.
  4. JV3-160SP up for sale - make me an offer!

    Did you read the description? The machine is down and wasn't decommissioned properly (as it crashed, board issues) and now the K & M heads are clogged (and possibly totally dead). If it wasn't for that I'd be all over it...
  5. phone lines down again!!!

    Depends on your area/state, many are requiring internet lines to be buried not strung.
  6. phone lines down again!!!

    Wow I agree with Adtechia for once. VOIP is the way to go.
  7. Color, Contrast, and Dimension

    Basic art theory but could be useful for art educators, I built similar tools when I worked at a museum for the arts preschool there. Thanks for sharing!
  8. New PC Build - MS or Open Office

    All three are text processors, not layout applications. Which is why we don't support MS Word as a valid art file format. :peace!: The same file opened in the same version of the same text processor but on different computers will even flow differently.
  9. Computer gurus - attack!

  10. New PC Build - MS or Open Office

    By the way there's been a split in the community and I'd recommend LibreOffice over OpenOffice. It's the exact same software, but OpenOffice is a name owned by Oracle and LibreOffice is the result of the open source community wanting a clean break from Oracle. All of the main developers are now...
  11. Does your artwork fee mean you hand ownership to customer?

    It keeps coming up for exactly that reason, many shops don't use any sort of contract before starting work, much less design work. It's a point of pain in the industry but a lot of people on here still can't figure out why it's necessary and smart business.
  12. Patriotic Restaurant Sign

    I'm sure it will, it'd go over great here too. :)
  13. Customer bought logo from me. Wants it as MS Word file

    Sound more like a point of training opportunity. She wants it in Word so she can edit it? That's just dumb. Wanting it in Word as stationary or something, that make sense. Also it sounds like she just wants the logomark and thinks that having it in word she can edit off the logotype...why not...
  14. Onyx 7 Add Image Problem

    We never use Layout so I can't help there, but I just had our Onyx RIP hard lock and corrupt our printer cfg files. Deleting the printer from Onyx to reinstall deleted all the archived work & cut files, so now I'm running a deleted files recovery on the HD that's going to take ~8 hours. Yay...
  15. Patriotic Restaurant Sign

    I can't stand jingoism but that's an amusing sign. Would have been better served with a manual illustration trace instead of autotrace but whatever, it made me smile.
  16. Rolled this one out last week.

    Don't like the business logo and it's hard to read on the doors, but otherwise it's a nice wrap, should draw eyes and lend professionality to the business.
  17. Can you teach me to print shirts???

    Point him towards the nearest University with a Fine Arts program and tell him to audit some screen printing classes with all the other retirees.
  18. how to reinstall win xp in a Dell notebook when I never received any discs?

    Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/security_essentials/default.aspx
  19. Whats your average phone call per week

    50-100, five person shop. Most work (85%+) comes in via email.
  20. I hate working weekends!

    Weekends are two days you use to work on projects you didn't work on during the week. Great job, I'm always jealous of shops that do dimensional work.
