Gino your response is too close. Can you keep your posts at least 6' from mine? :D

Nevermind! You can delete moderator. Sorry

Thanks! Appreciate the help

This one's driving me crazy, I know I've seen it. I thought it was an LHF Font, but doesn't seem to be. Looking for the script. Any ideas?

Wow, I have to say, I'm just a few days into using X8 and I'm super disappointed in it's lack of stability. Tons of little issues. Now I've created a file that suddenly just crashed on me after a couple hours of work. When I go to open it, I get a gray screen with "view" grayed out in the menu...

I just switched over to a new Windows 10 machine. I thought it was going to be a problem getting used to it, but I really like it. It's a fast and intuitive operating system. I'll keep my Windows 7 machine offline for cutting vinyl.

I get this response sometimes with print shops too...I think they just really haven't looked at the file. Like Bobby said, If you didn't use any bitmaps in the design, tell the shop DPI isn't even a factor.

I'll give that a try...thanks!

So I finally "upgraded" from X6 to X8 since I moved to a Windows 10 computer. I started working in X8 today, but I'm already experiencing issues opening older version files. The first instance was a file I created in X6 that I needed to edit. When I opened it in X8, one of the bitmaps was...

This was an OEM install, no disc :(

I'm finally going to purchase a new Windows 10 machine this week and probably going to upgrade from X6 to X8 unless you guys can talk me out of it. Since X8 seems to be the last stable version, where could one still purchase it? Or should I use the workaround above and stick with X6? It...

The foam may need to be reshaped, but adding some bubbles to the beer portion will make it look more beery.

Please don't put that on your sign. :) Here's a really helpful website if you're looking for the way certain terms are translated. It's a great tool for signmakers/designers since spanish is becoming more and more common. The great thing about it is it has a forum in which users help with real...

Any ideas on what letterstyle this is? It was handlettered, but I'm sure there has to be something close out there.

Agree! I think I'm going to have to end up learning how to sharpen them.

I just use a yellow (firmer) and white (softer) wheel that you can get at lowes. The yellow I "charge" with Herb's Yellowstone stropping compound, it think it's a mild abrasive that polishes the steel. Then I follow up with the white for a mirror finish. Again, I'm not an expert and and...

It was Conthrax, just stretched like crazy. :)

Pfeil tools are indeed great tools, I use them too. I'm a learner myself, but from the research I've done, sharpening doesn't have to be as complicated as many make it. I keep a buffing wheel on the bench and use it between each letter I carve, that keeps the chisels nice and sharp. I haven't...

Amen! A combo made in heaven. And when I'm feeling like I need to eat a little healthier, green olives and pineapple is another good mix.
