  1. Best way to handle changes to website

    I'm working on a new website for us and I'm looking for some advice. Our site does well on searches, but my new design is going to be constructed completely different so it'll have a lot more pages and the page names will be different than the existing page names. I can easily wipe out...
  2. Windows 8? Do you like it?

    I was installing Parallels on my laptop and up pops a screen that allows me to install various OS's and Windows 8 was one of them. I'm sure it's the trial thing they offered from MS. I installed it and wasn't very happy with it. Anyone else giving it a test drive? Any thoughts? I've only gone...
  3. Yogurt, anyone?

    I'm stumped, but that's not saying much. I struggle with Arial and Times New Roman..... I can find things really close to some of these letters, but the "g" is killing me (the little dangling part on the top right). I also think it might all be stretched vertically, so that might be causing...
  4. Beware of Flash updates

    Yesterday, from the other side of the office, I hear "Hey, do I want McAfee to update?". ::::gulp:::::: We don't have McAfee on anything. I go over and look at it, it looks like the real deal. I control/alt/delete and kill it. Pop on the internet and find that the update for Flash now...
  5. Illustrator Clipping Mask Help

    I need some help from the smart kids in the class. I have a customer supplied file that has a 20 objects or so, and they used a gradient or several gradients and used a clipping mask to get the gradients into the actual shapes. No big deal. However, they want us to make something for them...
  6. Anyone upgraded to Mountain Lion yet?

    If you don't own a Mac or just want to bash apple, start your own thread please. Can we get through one thread of people talking about apple products without it being a flaming war? Let's try it. It's easy- just don't reply. That being said, any apple owners upgrade to Mountain Lion yet? If so...
  7. Yes, another Trademark question....(sorry)

    If something is Trademarked, I understand you can't use it in certain ways. Let's say that Nike has a golf event and they call it "The Nike Golf Event". I'm sure I can't make things that say "The Nike Golf Event", but when if someone wants something along the lines of this : "1st Place...
  8. Mozilla Thunderbird Mail Client Dead?

    Anyone else see the article that says Mozilla is dropping all Thunderbird development? Man, I hate to see that happen. It says they are going to leave it up to the "community" to develop it, I think. That's very disappointing. I've always liked Thunderbird as a mail client...
  9. Mother Nature Struck

    We had a wicked storm come through yesterday. I had a customer coming over, I opened the front door to see his car there, and the weather looked really bad. Debris flying all around. He came in, shortly after that, the power went out. We got a call from a friend who had some flooding issue going...

  13. Gold Leaf questions

    I have a personal project I'm working on and I thought it was about time to dive into trying to use gold leaf. I bought a starter kit that came with the powder stuff (can't remember the name, I'm not near it right now), a brush, a "mop" brush, the sizing, and a book of gold. I v-carved...
  14. This one cracks me up every time....

    I know this video has been making it's rounds. Maybe some of y'all haven't seen it yet. I chuckled a little at first, but every time I watch this thing, it just cracks me up even more. One of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. My entire family now talks like this...
  15. Did they change the scroll zoom in X5?

    We upgraded from X3 to X5 a month or two ago and I seem to be unable to navigate for some odd reason, the zoom tool from the scroll wheel. When I want to zoom in X3, I can zoom right in and out just how and where I want. When I do the same thing in X5, it never seems to do what I want, but I...
  16. Networking with Windows 7

    I had to run get a new computer. Didn't have a lot of time or choices. It's to run a dedicated machine, no big deal. It's got W7 Home Premium on it. I'm trying to get it networked back up with the rest of my system. In the past, what I have done in XP, is gone into the networking area and...
  17. Anyone using AirPrint from Apple products?

    Is anyone using AirPrint from their iPhones/iPads? I have a family member that has an iPad and I planned on getting them a printer for Christmas. However, I couldn't get a straight answer from anyone, nor could I find the information online about the set up. My question, hopefully to someone...
  18. Stumped, need layout suggestions

    I had a walk in customer about a month ago and she had a box of parts she had pulled off her daughters trophies over the years. She wanted them all put on one piece. Simple enough, or so I thought when I said "Sure, we can do it". She's always said "No hurry at all. If it doesn't get done for...
  19. X5 converting things to CMYK

    I installed X5 a week or two ago and every time I open an existing file I have from X3 (probably 10,000 or more files I have), it opens them as CMYK. I've used Corel for years now and never changed any settings or set it up a certain way, but all my stuff is in RGB because of the equipment it's...
  20. Removing programs from list in XP

    I have a PC that I used personally that I'd like to repurpose and there are some things on there I'd like to keep on there, but I'd like to remove access from, for other users. I want to create another user account that removes access to some programs, so I don't have someone wasting time when...
