  1. Anyone seen or used Hype to create websites?

    I know this is Mac only, but it looks very good for creating html 5 websites. Seems to be getting decent reviews. There are some pretty slick animations in it that seem like they would really fit into a nice website. I'm just finishing (or am I really just starting?) up our website, done...
  2. isigntube.com?

    Stumbled upon isigntube.com this morning and got stuck there for 1/2 hour watching videos. Appears to be a "youtube" like site made just for sign related videos. Not a ton of videos there, but there's some interesting stuff.
  3. Now that's a headline to avoid.......

    Not talking about the actual case, that's a NHB topic, I would imagine, but man, just reading the headline made me put my hand over my midsection..... Sounds like a story about an electric fence, a Friday night, a case of Pabst Blue Ribbon, and Mosh :Big Laugh
  4. Someone copying your web content?

    I know a couple members on this forum have had issues with people copying their website content and pushing it off as their own so I thought this might interest some of you. http://www.copyscape.com/ It's a website that scans for copies of your content. Watch this video, it's a GREAT...
  5. Arlo update?

    Anyone hear anything about Dave's surgery?
  6. Disney dirt bags

    Anyone else see this? How the hell can they do that? It's the current, long standing name of a group that's been out there since the 1980's..... http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlny/disney-trademarks-seal-team-6_b35689
  7. Stop calling me from Utah!

    Anyone else keep getting the calls from a Utah based company that keep wanting to plug away for information about your business? About every other day, I get a call, I've traced it down to a marketing company in Utah. They want to know about our phone service, our office supplies, anything and...
  8. Scammers are getting better

    I was given the task by a family member to try and locate something on craigslist. An item popped up, looked and sounded like a good price for a good product, in the city I'm in. Emailed for some more information and got a response back that included 4 photos of the item, sitting on carpet, as...
  9. Any networking options for Graphtec plotters?

    I have a FC-7000MK2 and currently it's sitting right next to the computer that runs it. On the other side of the computer, there's a piece of equipment that runs off the computer and cannot be networked. I'd like to move the plotter to another place in the office, but I've not seen anyone ever...
  10. Tiling in Photoshop

    I have a photo I need to tile into pieces for a project. I watched a tutorial online that showed how to make grids the right size, then use the marquee tool, giving it a fixed size of each tile, then using the grid as a guide to lay the marquee in the right place. I'm all good with that, but it...
  11. Plotter Blade Holders

    I know I've seen it asked many times, but never seen a source for after market blade holders until today. Found this while searching for something else.... http://www.vmisales.com/plotter_blade_holder/index.html Anyone dealt with them before? $42 for a Graphtec blade holder, $40 for Roland...
  12. April Fools- Pretty funny

    Pay attention to how her head moves. She's really trying to make this happen. http://www.fox5sandiego.com/videobeta/43bd961c-2bb5-42c3-906c-83fc00649f89/Entertainment/Shally-Falls-for-April-Fools-Prank
  13. Watch yourselves- cyber attack on the loose

    Just a heads up- really serious cyber attack going on right now. Beware of anything that tells you that you have a virus (as should always be). Details here : http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9215428/Millions_of_sites_hit_with_mass_injection_cyberattack I hadn't heard much about it...
  14. Shop colors

    We are about to move our shop. A whopping 8" (moving next door), and it's empty right now. We're going to paint the walls of the shop area (warehouse) and if I don't speak up now, it'll be off white :) One wall is sheetrock, the opposite is block. It's a long, narrow type space. 15ft ceiling...

  16. How to choose a typeface

    Hope this helps someone. I enjoyed reading it : http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2011/03/24/how-to-choose-a-typeface/
  17. FC-7000 won't stop feeding material

    Just a quick one here, while I wait for Graphtec to open. Put material in, pick "Roll 1-Front Set", hit enter, the material takes off and never stops. It skips by the eye completely. If I pick "Sheet", it hits the eye and reads it and everything is fine, so I'm guessing it's not the eye...
  18. Value of a used Summa

    Any idea what the value of a working T1300 - 48" is? Assuming it's about 10 years old. Is it worth anything? Anything I should know about it? Good plotter? Lots of problems? Someone's offered me one for sale. I don't need a plotter, but I'd like to have the 48" so I could use it a couple times a...
  19. I feel guilt for watching....

    I just had the most enjoyable lunch! I went to Arbys and once placing my order, I turned around and noticed a guy installing vinyl lettering on a building across the street. He was installing their building number over the door with white vinyl lettering, looked to be about 10-12" tall. When I...
  20. Darn Dumpster Divers.....

    Okay, I wasn't paranoid until someone recently interviewed with me and said that they'd gladly go dumpster diving at the competitors locations. I'm not sure why they told me that, or where it came from, but up until that point, I never thought about it. I do get torqued off when I see these...
