About a year ago I posted here asking what software people were using to run their businesses (quotes, invoices, contact management, accounting). At the time I was using Excel, which didn't come close to meeting my needs. Some people suggested Quickbooks, but that fell short as well. I spent...

Hi Dave... saw you had some well wishes in another thread... but i wanted you to wish you happy birthday in your own thread. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVE!!! xoxo gg

Today I had about an hour to turn out a A-Frame sign and take it to UPS for overnight shipping, all I had to do was mount the two prints… no problem. Since the graphics are being mounted directly onto the Signacade A-Frame, it’s suppose to be hit with a flame before mounting the graphic. I...

Been hoping to land this big cleint for a while but thought i'd lost out. Had a lot working against me... because of the industry, the job was more suited to a cool, young, guy strike! STRIKE!! & STRIKE!!! and if 3 strikes weren't enough, when they asked me if i'd work from their office... i...

I need to bid a job this morning for a brand new client, with a super tight deadline. I'd normally want to set a new cleint straight, right out of the gate, regarding reasonable time lines... but this client is a BIGGY... and i need to BRING IT to land them. My current vendor has a one week...

it's sunday night at 11pm... ellie, my miniature schnauzer has eaten a bag of m&m's!!! she's 16 lbs... ate what amounts to about one of those king size (i guess single serving) bags of peanut m&m's. everything i'm reading is scaring the heck of me! but if she's not she's not vomiting or...

yesterday i was up against a major deadline and i knew if i had the usual interruptions, i wouldn't make it... and I DON'T MISS DEADLINES... EVER. i started work at 4:30am, thinking i'd be far enough along by 9am that i could check caller id when the phone rang and only take calls from the...

A man walks into a psychiatrist's office wrapped in Saran Wrap with nothing on underneath. The psychiatrist says, "I can clearly see your nuts!"

Most of us have had our share of frustrating emails from clients. Thought it would be fun to share some nicer ones. Friday i sent an email to a brand new client with proofs for his review. This doctor's brief light-hearted response made my day. I think i'm going to like working with him...

Happy Birthday & Happy Anniversary MikePro!!! I'm a few hours late on the Happy Birthday wish but a few hours early wishing you Happy S101 One Year Anniversary! xoxo -gg

I have mastered the curvy coro cut and thought i try my hand at straight cuts... ya know just to be able to offer either or. I knew i was going to be cutting a bunch of signs today, so i'd planned on ordering a PLAST-KUT, which i found mentioned in a search here, for cutting along the flutes...

i'm getting off the freeway and there's a guy sitting on a milk crate, holding a piece of cardboard that reads "homeless please help" i'm thinking i'll give him a few bucks when i get close enough, then i notice the first car in line holding out a bill... he doesn't get up... the light turns...

i thought this was common knowledge, but in the past few months i've seen people use a calculator instead of letting inDesign & Illy do the math for them. did you know anyplace where you would enter a dimension you can enter an equation? say for example you have a 4.875" wide x 5.3625" high...

Hey Doug... i was on your profile page stealing your monkey for another thread, hope you don't mind, and saw it was your birthday today. Your probably not even awake yet, so thought i might get to be the first to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY! hope it's a great one, xoxo -gg your not too old for...

I've been look for a comfortable headset solution and i'm at the point where i think what i want just doesn't exist! I wear my headset ALL day, can't stand holding a phone to my ear! Not to mention the fact that i need to be able to work while on the phone. Between just answering the phone...

Looks like iSign was able to get a sign ordinance changed! Not that we should be at all surprised to find Doug speaking out... but i just saw this on FaceBook. The article doesn't go into much detail about how the ordinance was changed, but it looks like iSign played a role. I thought the...

Look how the employee's just go about their business. :ROFLMAO: i've made a fool of myself in the Apple Store before, but not this bad. ewwww.... but funny!

For the last two weeks we've been inundated with phone calls... no so much solicitors or telemarketers... more like every college on the planet and insurance companies. We already screen our calls, but when the majority of calls last week, were for Little Cindy Loo Who, from colleges saying...
