  6. eCommerce Suggestions

    Why not just migrate to the Magento community open source cart. You already have 250sku. That would be a simple transition. Or transition to BigCommerce. My understanding is Magento inked a deal and BigCommerce will transition you over to their platform at no charge. What I don't get is why...

  10. Custom Shipping Boxes ??

    We use to ship all of our custom logos flat. We don't do it anymore due to how expensive shipping has gotten but here is how we did it. We purchased 48x72" sheets of cardboard. I think 200 pound quality. We would make our logo, 6"x 42" put it on the sheet at one end. Allow for 1" of extra...
  11. New Printer?

    We own this printer. Purchased it in November. It is inked up CMYKLcLmLbW. The light black is great. We print a lot of gray scale so it helps a lot. The white ink has not panned out the way I hoped. It's too thin so if you print on dark media the color shows. Technically it runs great but we...

    Flash websites are dying. They do not run on any iPhones or iPads. Steve Jobs basically killed flash. Plus they suck at SEO. You could always try freelancer.com for flash designer experts. But I would build for the future and not for the past. 12 reasons why to not have a flash website...

  15. Artwork Release fee

    I always charge a fee if they want the artwork no matter if they paid a design fee. They asked for a product and not for artwork. Those are two separate things.

    We are having the same black banding issue with our 540i and it is also light black printing.
