  1. ink usage question

    40/35/35/100 is my secret sauce. Depends on the particular printer/inks.
  2. Looking to take a fresh new approach at business

    I catapult livestock and insult mothers. If you're a sole proprietor you should be honest about it. If you're a sole proprietor that works with a team you contract to handle things you don't do, then you can say "we" and such. Be forthright in business online and it will pay you back. People...
  3. MS Backup Utility

    There's actually a true imaging backup utility built into Windows 7 as well, just as an fyi.
  4. what do I do with this guy?

    If you do do it have him sign something that says you aren't responsible for any ruined media. If something goes wrong and you lose some of it you can't eat whatever cost he paid for it, he has to accept the risk (in writing).
  5. More fun with Copyright curveball

    In this case, yep. However as pointed out there's a chance that he'd be "sufficiently transforming" the photograph to the point where copyright wouldn't apply. That type of thing usually gets fought out in court. Easier to ask the photographer to grant permission or find a photo of the work...
  6. Copyright Infringment...........................

    How do you know the one is free? Need to be in a release, usually as Creative Commons - Commercial Allowed Derivatives Allowed No Attribution Required or something similar. Everything is copyright no matter if it explicitly says copyright or not, copyright is attached to a work creation at...
  7. Copyright Infringment...........................

    Copyright is still in play in this scenario, you should buy it. Or break the law, but know you're breaking the law.
  8. New Printer

    Even with the color gamut advantage on the Epson? I really like Mimaki as well but I'm a sucker for a larger color gamut, being a designer first a production guy second.
  9. At&t email

    Don't use ISP email, problem solved.
  10. New Printer

    Epson GS6000 or HP L25500 depending on your technology preference. Going to need a laminator too.
  11. Do you paint walls?

    You should actually know the answer though -- you're supposed to wait a couple of weeks after painting a wall before putting on adhesives (like vinyl...or velcro) or it'll peel off the paint. That said yeah we get some weird requests, but all businesses do. People are really lazy and if a...
  12. Help! Stuck in endless XP authorization loop!

    If it's an OEM computer you should have a recovery partition (that you can run repair from), if it's not...you should have a disk. If it's pirated...don't ask for help!
  13. pick apart please... i'm stuck

    I don't mind the theme or the idea but I already knew what gelato was (seriously guys?), hence my comments on the colors above :). The steel/black is a detractor (not "food" feeling) and the orange/red are too primary compared to the lime/lemon.
  14. Thoughts on SELLING OUT!

    Better have an employment contract that equals a duration you're comfortable with and has easy outs if you want out but difficult outs for them (to fire you). You're giving up your ability to earn on demand in exchange for the "safety" of a salary so that salary better be damn safe.
  15. Transit Connect Wrap

    We've done vertical on a few of them, nothing too atypical. There's more curves on them than you'd expect though, avoid running continuous graphics around the curve/corner between the side and back as it's a pain to keep lined up. Our installers hate horizontal installs so avoid them more than...
  16. pick apart please... i'm stuck

    I actually think it's the Red and Orange that are the problems, not the lime and lemon. They're too close to primary / too far away from citrus. Think Blood Orange and Orange (the fruits) not "red" and "orange" and you'd be closer to something that works with the lime and lemon colors and the...
  17. Gerber Announces Discontinuation of all Flatbed Printers

    I think I'd trade the Triangle smell for burnt bugs at this point. I guess I should take the CAT UV sample prints I've been staring at from behind my workstation and move on to looking at other manufacturers. Pity. :/
  18. Some people just dont get it.

    We got a call where the customer wanted transparent magnets. Turned out they wanted static clings but it took a while to figure that one out. They never did understand why calling them magnets was incorrect.
  19. Gerber Announces Discontinuation of all Flatbed Printers

    Any plans you can talk about to sell the tech? We were impressed with the CAT UV quite a bit.

    Thanks for the link.
