  1. Training in Illustrator

    Give us a bulleted list of the things you need help with. Perhaps it's already been discussed here on the forum. Every Illy user has different needs, and each approaches this program differently. JB
  2. Decals on beer mugs?

    Ever consider etching them? http://www.photobrasive.com JB
  3. Do you follow a business guru?

    Scott Adams (cartoonist for Dilbert) is my new business guru. JB
  4. Logo for my new business

    So very true. You can get your own domain name for less that a week's worth of high-end coffee. I can't believe how many "professionals" are still using a generic domain name email addresses. With that said, I'd be interested in your revised layout. JB
  5. Logo for my new business

    Perhaps a bit too bloody for most clientele. I was looking for tattoos somewhere on the product lineup....just sayin'. Stereo's should be Stereos....not possessive. JB
  6. Any One using Port A Cool in the Warehouse with printers

    I have a lot of issues with my paper-backed Hartco materials (sandblast mask) when the humidity outdoors gets too high. The paper backing absorbs moisture and tends to curl. I would suspect you'll have similar issues. JB
  7. Printer time charges

    That's a question that only you can answer. Start with your annual budget. Determine your "per-hour" cost of doing business, and then add in your profit margin. Compare it to your competition for a reality check. JB
  8. Do you follow a business guru?

    Sometimes your best mentor isn't who you think. Over the past four months, we've been working through one of the largest projects we've ever been awarded. Just this week I had a friend who is in a similar business visit us for four days to help out. He lives 600 miles away and our business...

    40 Grit Aluminum Oxide.JB
  11. Family issues

    A new one for my dictionary. Thanks, Jill.
  12. A Dogs Life

    I'll lift my leg to that!
  13. Wife and kids are away

    Sad to say I'm four inches shorter and 50 pounds heavier, so thanks for the encouragement. My daughter is getting married September 7, and I've got to get busy dropping some weight or the camera will remind me for the rest of my life. JB
  14. MORE INFO ON THE cloud ripoff....

    Yep...I'd hoped this would be coming. Perhaps Adobe will reconsider, but it doesn't sound very probable. More than likely, they all have their own clouds one day. Here's Adobe's response to the others joining in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pq3YdpB6N9M
  15. These guys are nuts!

    There's obviously a vas deferens between the ways men and women cope with cancer. JB
  16. Is anyone selling a working gerber?

    There's one on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Gerber-Edge-FX-/360673170968
  17. Anyone else just totally slammed right now?

    Yep...we've been blessed with an over abundance of work as well. Of all the stresses to have, I would have to say it's the best kind, and it sure beats the alternative. JB
  18. CNC bit for engraving ceramic tile

    You'll definitely need to use diamond. Contact Granite City Tool www.granitecitytool.com/
  19. Cutting Sandblast Rubber-Making Pounce Patterns

    We do a lot of stone engraving work with Hartco and Anchor products (116 & 117). In all honesty, you're going to want a sprocket fed plotter with tangential capabilities. Allen Datagraph or Gerber fit the bill. They're pricey, but given the right jobs and a sound business model, they'll pay...
  20. Illustrator CS5 file saving question

    Turning off the "Create PDF Compatible File" option really does the trick. I took a 54.4 MB file (heavy with photos) down to a paltry 1.4 MB. Thanks for the excellent time and memory saver. On an interesting side note, I took the 54.4 MB file originally created in CS5 and opened it in CS6. I...
