So I had this kid (22) call me wanting a sign for this business he is starting. He sent me his "logo", and after seeing it I tried to give him some help since I hate making ugly signs. I made him a new logo in about 25 min so I wasnt even going to charge him for design (I know, bad idea).... he...

Everyone should watch "Art & Copy" for tomorrow. it is available instantly on netflix. It relates wonderfully to designing in the sign world or in any industry for that matter. When he says he has to drag people kicking and screaming in to being rich, thats how i feel about design.

So I am going to be putting up a lexan sign in the next couple of days and have what seems like a very basic question. Do I need to paint the lexan white before I put the translucent printed vinyl down? I put up a white acrylic sign with a transparent print on it about 6 months ago, and you can...

I can't get people to agree to take my designs! Constant rejection. It's like asking a girl to the prom and she says "sorry, but I'm going with Ralph, you know the guy in the special Ed. classes that eats his earwax..." so here are some designs for an italian restaurant. I made 2 and the owners...

Does anyone know what these two fonts are?

Is anyone here running caldera on a mac? how do you like it. what options are worht it, and what should I stay away from? I was looking at the visual rip+ for my xc-540 with the cost view and easy media options. The easy media option is a bit pricey at 2 grand, is it worth it?

Application fluid worx like a champ on computer cut vinyl, but not so much on digitally printed vinyl. The fluid takes forever to dissipate when I use it to lay down large graphics printed on calendared media and creates edge curl that never wants to go back down well. Has anyone else had this...

I am trying to find an exterior mounting system for a banner, about 14'X40' WxH (we haven't settled on a size yet) with pole pockets top and bottom. We would like it to hold the banner away from the building and have the ability to be tightened or loosened for easy banner changeout. I havent had...

what do we think about this?

I'm trying to put together a qoute on 50 20oz bottle shaped signs,~48" tall. Cant find somewhere to outsource the print and diecut to, or atleast somewhere to order the bottle blanks. Has anyone seen them before, or Should I just Print them on to 4x8 and cut them by hand?

Yeah so I got bored last night, and decided to make this movie about a customer. I should probably start episode 2. http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6889149/

So I've been on the owner about getting a t-shirt press for the shop for a while now, and finally this morning they told me they couldn't decide because everytime they found one they thought would be good, they found bad reviews about it. It is now my job to research and decide. Anyone know a...

(XC-540) Has anyone ever seen a cheaper POS on a $30K machine? There is no way to make sure the take up reel is parallel wit the machine causing media to spool crooked, and ultimately bend up and hit the head. Anyone found a fix for this?

So we just finished wraping a 25ft camper for this guy, and now he called us and said this guy he talked to wants his plane wrapped before it goes to the gulf to help in the oil spill. How do I design and wrap a conical shape? I thought maybe doing it in 24" wide pieces instead of 52" panels to...

I am about to print 30ft of mesh banner (something I havent done before) and I am looking for a profile for versaworks that will not flood to much ink. there is no mesh banner standard profile, and roland told me to get ahold of the manufacturer and they should have a profile. Unfortunately I...

has anyone cut sandblast material with an xc-540? what cut settings do I use?

I am getting drops of magenta across my prints. I clean the heads every week, but it seems to be a recurring problem. I just ran a clean cycle on B bank but havent done a test print yet. any ideas on why this is happening?

need help finding this font, seems easy, it's just not in my font book.

I need to find this font for a local body shop doing repairs on a fire engine. I thought it might be a stretched out copperplate at first, but its not. then I found the font Megadeth on daFont and it looks like whatever font they used for the basis of Megadeth is probably what I'm looking for, I...
