    I suggested a banner accross the back, or two (one on each side). They called back and requested a quote for 4' x 4' decals. This was after suggesting that a decal will crumple and peel away, not to mention scratch and crack the decal. I will have to strongly suggest the banner route again.

    Hello All! I was contacted by a local university here in Florida that I have done work for recently. Their problem is this: They ordered a 20' x 30' tent. The company they are working with was supposed to print their school crest and mascot into the fabric on two sides, but for reasons...
  3. Logo for a Cake Business

    The trail behind your Dragonfly looks like a "D". Consider that in a retool. That would keep the dragonfly incorporated into the name, but not into the graphic. I just dont like pests near my cake, and that includes family. But back to your design, the cupcake and/or a wedge of cake would go...

    Yeah I bet folks viewed it, were fooled by my mistake, thought I was an older artist at a 3rd grade level and decided it might be better not to comment and crush my feelings. What a bad first impression Ive made. I'll try to make up for it later.
  5. Just wondering.....

    They took the red pill and followed Morpheus down the rabbit hole.
  6. SB nation

    I had to make a correction. The official logo on their site in the image provided on the LEFT. I created the one on the RIGHT. I did not make the stickman who looks like John Henry.

    Yes, but the Steelers site is "Behind the Steel Curtain". They chose to have a stickman wielding a sledgehammer. In mine, there is something to be seen behind the steel curtain. I thought mine came closer than theirs. Youre right though, that one is badass. A lot of them are very good, but I...
  8. SB nation

    Each team has its own logo. This was the concept they felt best represented the Steelers. The vast majority dislike it and feel it is dull and painful to look at. There are 31 other NFL teams and they all, for the most part, look decent.

    There is a sports site names SB Nation that covers all sports. They recently reformatted and had a designer redesign every team's logo. As a Steelers Fan, I wasnt happy with what the artist made and I made this to show it can be better. Unfortunately, they are not taking requests or changing the...
  10. New here, looks like a good find so far

    If something was autotraced, put it on wireframe and look for stray bits and nodes. Also, whenever I copy and paste from Corel x6 to FlexiSIGN 10, I often have mixed results that vary from ideal to jagged. First, make sure you "convert to curves", otherwise your text can be altered during...
  11. Lamination

    Yeah, thats something to think about too. My cut table is a small coffee table roughly 2 feet by 2.5 feet. Mosh, Im just kidding. Put the gun back in the holster.
  12. Lamination

    I will test clearshield and frogjuice. I will also look at the big squeegee. Great advice. And to the fella who has a bathroom bigger than my production room; Good for you. Im starting from the ground up with my own savings, multiple years experience as a fine artist, and a few short months...
  13. Lamination

    I squeezed everything into a two unit shop, one side is production and the other is my cut table and the counter/register. I literally have no room for any machine in here and I mean absolutely zero room. My printer is nearly 9 feet long, the plotter is 5 feet long and my production room is...
  14. Lamination

    I decided if I wasnt going to have a large laminator, then I didnt want to offer lamination for smaller projects and have that pointed out by a customer as a flaw. Hadnt experienced a flux of customers needing laminate on many projects at my prior workplace. Then again, Im finding out more and...

    I have been open for business for a few weeks and just had my ribbon cutting ceremony with our local chamber. My services thus far include vinyl for storefront and mobile businesses, signs on pvc-aluminum-coroplast, Banners, Vehicle Magnets, glass etching and various vinyl gift ideas. I had a...
  16. New email scam???

    Whoever it is needs to be smashed across the face repeatedly with heavy mining equipment!
  17. New email scam???

    I received the same email. It also included an image of the supposed car, and two jpgs of flowers. I actually wrote back, because If theyre going to waste my time I would like to waste theirs. I told them that I dont like turning down work, but in this case I didnt feel it would be fair for this...
  18. Color Problems

    Yeah the Tech at SAI said the same thing about the photospectrometer being needed if I want to utilize the software's ability to create my own profiles. I realize I may not be able to get a spot on match, but I did go the right direction and was pleased with the results of the profiles. Thanks a...

    I own a Mimaki JV3 160 SP, I run it with FlexiSign Pro V.10.5. My prints are printing extremely dark and Im looking for tips on how to calibrate/adjust and produce a print that is similar to what im seeing on my screen, and keep it printing that way. I chose a sample pic of varied pastel colored...
