  2. Design Contest - Death Metal Poster!

    The power in your shop goes out. You waste 10 feet of vinyl because you plotter shuts down halfway through a job. You look outside your shop's window. The sky turns to black. Flashes of blinding white light illuminate the sky as thunderous booms shake the ground beneath your feet. The door...

  10. Amd?

    I'm getting a new system here shortly. The tech guy here said we could try going with AMD instead of Intel. The last time I had an AMD system was about 7 years ago. So Techies??? are they good processors? They seem to cost less in side by side comparisons. :help

  12. Contest/Design Off Idea

    With all the drama around here lately I thought it would be fun to try something that could remind us of the things that we do agree on.

  15. Wrap Industry… Your Thoughts?

    I ask this, because I wonder how lucrative this niche market really is. Do the people that do wraps more then once a week only live in more urban areas? And if so have you always been just a wrap company, or did your sign company evolve into just a wrap business? Do you think the...
  16. Are we a weakening industry? And is it our own fault?

    I’m all for helping out new sign shops and beginners in this trade, but the truth of the matter is that this industry is over saturated with new guys, that in a lot of cases (but not all) can’t manage to keep their shop open for more then a couple of years. And to me, a lot of times, it’s...
