    That's it! thanks Gino. i'm a small time operation right now. I have been in the business for a little over 10 years, on my own for about half of those, but only full time on my own for the last year or so. Customers have followed me from previous employers, and i'm constantly getting praised on...

    I've used that tactic before, but this one will likely not get an option. This is a customer who almost tries to "bully" me ...for lack of a better word, so i've begun telling them when i'll be there. if it doesn't work for them, they have to wait.

    I have a client who wants a line of text across the top of the windshield for their new truck - 2019 f350. i've done this before, and have created my own template to set up the file, but i was wondering if anyone knows if i can find a template somewhere for the windshield? reason being, it's...
