  1. Discussion Who "owns" the artwork? ... a conundrum when AI is involved

    For practical purposes, you need to establish who owns the art at the beginning and end of the revisions process and be paid appropriately for the revisions...For what ifs, I suppose you could make the argument that AI invented the design so the company that gave it to you for revisions doesn't...
  2. Discussion Who "owns" the artwork? ... a conundrum when AI is involved

    I'm not surprised. I've seen Getty Images (and/or other photo file sellers) watermark on public domain photos that they will happily sell back to you without the watermark. It it's not nailed down, the photo banks will try to sell it.
  3. Discussion Who "owns" the artwork? ... a conundrum when AI is involved

    If the customer sends you an original design or logo, they own the design. If they send you the design in a format that needs to be cleaned up, and you do, then you own the use of the digital files for their purposes. But their artwork is theirs. It's probably theirs if they instructed AI to...
  4. This should be fun. :o

    We use that Grimco material with a cast overlaminate for decals and larger flat surfaces like ACM. It should be fine, though Arlon 4600 should be longer lasting as it's rated for 7 years and really doesn't cost much more. The Grimco material has one big advantage over its longer lasting...
  5. Is this a one-person removal?

    Charge $2000. Rent a lift for $350. Get a local landscaper/handyman/home renovation guy/gal who doesn't mind climbing and dismantling to take down the sign for $500 Spend your day making signs for customers with trucks/windows .... whatever is your specialty. Collect $1,150 and stay in your...
  6. Windows 7 with roland sp-300V

    I am reading your thread with interest as I also have an older machine (VS-540) running VersaWorks 5.51 on Windows 10. Here are my thoughts. VersaWorks 5.51 seems to be an update of VW 4.0, so use 5.51. I found an old Roland site with a trail that linked 4.0 to 5.51 but all the links are now...
  7. Helmet Decals

    For large helmet orders, I would look into hydro-dipping. I don't have experience with it, but just saw it at a trade show and it does a professional job. Unless you are just sticking numbers or simple decals on a helmet, that would be the way to go. At least it deserves a look. I understand you...
  8. Wrap in exteriors

    Check the weather! I almost never work outside but we are in Maryland, not far from you and the weather has been grand recently... If you want to drive the truck to Maryland, we'll rent our shop to you over the weekend. 18 foot high door, 80 feet long (50 useable).
  9. Wrapping a 50ft tall concrete silo. Anyone ever done something similar? Pricing and time?

    ...And I just commented on a five year old thread.
  10. Wrapping a 50ft tall concrete silo. Anyone ever done something similar? Pricing and time?

    There are a lot of easier and safer ways to earn $500 a day slinging vinyl...Unless you plan to charge $5,000 a day to remove it. Run! This can't end well.
  11. Anybody see...............................................................................

    The Daily Telegraph, in its early days, was owned by a Jewish man, a printer named Joseph Moses Levy. Today, it's owned by a bank (though which one is in dispute), and one of those banks is/are apparently shopping it around...Anyway, I don't even like climbing ladders anymore, much less hanging...
  12. Super Duty lifting

    Got it. Embossed. Per above. Clean well. Use adhesive accelerant and/or heat as necessary.
  13. Super Duty lifting

  14. Super Duty lifting

    Or...Re-Wrap. Remove the SUPER DUTY badge carefully, along with any other badges...But don't clean the adhesive...at least not well. Re-wrap the hood. Apply the badge over the old adhesive with two-sided tape. (That 3M VHB stuff or equivalent.) Or just remove SUPER DUTY, clean the remaining...
  15. I'm no wrapper...big old FAIL

    So you wrapped the hood using the super thin stuff (with soapy water I imagine) and it came out ok?! I think you are a better wrapper than you know! You'll be fine with dry applied Avery SW900, though that running board will be a pain to get around.
