  1. Thousands of tiny bubbles in a trailer wrap?

    A few weeks ago we wrapped a small cargo trailer. Printed the wrap on IJ140, laminated, cleaned the trailer well with alcohol, and installed like usual. The wrap appeared to go down fine, just the usual small bubble here and there but the next day there were THOUSANDS of 1/8" bubbles all over...
  2. Another reason not to trust the government

    Anybody that had this logo created and thought that was acceptable is not to be trusted! It's a Legend of Zelda sword, two Microsoft clipart arrows and a transparent Croc.
  3. Roland SC545 EX won't stay connected via ethernet

    We've got an old SC545EX as a backup to our latex printers. Lately it won't stay connected. You can turn it on, start printing a job, it will print a few inches and lose communication with the computer. We've replaced the NIC cards in two computers and replaced the crossover cables to both...
  4. Bulk banner stand supplier

    I used to have a bookmark for a banner stand supplier who sold the cheap, economy-grade retractable banner stands by the case really cheap. If I remember right they were around $16 each Now that I need it I can't find the bookmark. Anyone know a wholesale, bulk supplier for them?
  5. Where can I find the Scotts Lawn Service butterfly?

    Scotts Lawn Service isn't using the butterfly anymore so the artwork with it isn't available from them. We are replacing one side of a wrap on a van that was in a wreck, we have everything except this stinking butterfly. Does anyone have this butterfly or know where I can find it before I...
  6. Can somebody explain font numbers to me?

    I don't get it....why do some fonts have numbers that fall below the baseline? While I'm at it why do some fonts have numbers that are half the size they say they are. I've got several that if I'm typing 2" letters and enter a number the numbers come out at 1.25" tall. Heck, as long as I'm on...
  7. Cheap budget logo design critique

    Working on an image to use in the place of a logo on a wrap we're doing. Budget won't allow for custom illustrations or long, drawn out design sessions. What I'm trying to get to is loose, hip, southern chic, and happy without going to stereotypical hipster fonts and designs (yes, admittedly I...
  8. Why yes....yes I did.

    You want hippie....you get hippie.
  9. Is there a way to auto nest multiple objects inside one shape?

    I'm working on a project where I'll have 30-40 simple one color icons but I need to have them fit inside a specific shape (simple house, car, boat, star, etc.) I can do it manually but with 20 of these to do and 30-40 icons per shape I'd rather not deal with that if theres a way to do it with...
  10. Getting deep rich blacks with HPL26500

    Okay, apparently I'm going to have to teach myself how to run the stupid printer and stay late so i can do all my printing myself since nobody seems to give a **** about color density but me....and my customer who has refused a job twice now. I tried selecting colors using the profiles for...
  11. Will an HP Latex printer actually print yellow?

    I recently got an outstanding offer to sell out my shop and go to work for a much larger company. We have an HP Latex printer but the "operator" is whining, and I do mean whining, that it won't print yellow. We have this giant color chart and there's not an actual nice, rich yellow on it...
  12. Name this font please...

    It's not Impact, or Compacta, or Microgamma, or Metrostyle, or any of two dozen other fonts I tried. I'd just vectorize the thing but I've got to redo 20 other signs in this font.
  13. Opening the bottom panels of fuel pumps

    I've got three gas stations to reletter and part of the project is wrapping the bottom panels of the fuel pumps. The bottom panels unlock and lift off leaving just a nice flattish piece of aluminum with the holes for the nozzles cut out. Removing the doors will allow us to wrap the graphics...
  14. Thanks Fred!

    Thanks for having a rule about all photos posted here being hosted here. I can't tell you how many times in the last two weeks I've done searches in other forums, thought I'd found a solution to a problem, scrolled down for the picture that was supposed to show me what to do only to find that...
  15. Supplier for stock ADA room sign wtih changeable slots

    We originally ordered these 15 years ago. They were a stock item from the supplier. I would have sworn they came from Scott but I don't see them in the catalog. The whole thing is 5.5" x 5.5" with braille, raised room numbers and slots for two slide in strips that are .75" x 5.5" Anyone know...
  16. Band logo

    Logo design for a blues band with a rockabilly twist. Trying to do something a little different and hoping to achieve a bit of a retro 50's greaser look without looking like its from a bowling alley, involving a bee, or a crown.
  17. Another font ID need

    Thanks.

  19. How to instantly convince a customer that their sign is working....

    Lettered a trailer yesterday for a pressure washing company. He came to pick it up this morning laughing that he'd already gotten two jobs from it and he hadn't even gotten it out of my parking lot yet. Third time I remember that happening.
  20. City logo design critique

    This is more of a placeholder than a full blown city logo. There will be a brand actually developed in a couple of years, this is just a simple image to stick on a few promotional pieces and temporary signs until then. The bridge and the Coosa River are focal points for the city and other than...
