BEAUTIFUL! Thanks Stacy and Spectra! I'll play with that a bit later today Matthew BlackIceFX

I'm a bit lost... having the same issues with reds and yellows. So where in VW do I got to find the roland swatches? And how do I assign my roland swatches as colors in Illy or Flexi? Thanks, Matthew BlackIceFX

Can you save these as CS2 compatible files? Thanks! Matthew BlackIceFX

Sooo... if the marching ants don't appear in the preview window of your contour cut graphic, how do you ensure it's being recognized correctly?? I always verify my contour path with this window... Matthew BlackIceFX

Jim, the suggestion is appreciated, but I have a deal on a CE-5000 and am trying to get a rough value for my machine if I were to find a buyer. Anyone else have an idea? Matthew BlackIceFX

I have a VE Panther 40" vinyl cutter. It's about 3 years old, works great, has a new blade and blade strip. What is a reasonable value on this machine? Looking to upgrade to a CE-5000 and will be selling the Panther. What's it worth? I'm thinking $1000 + shipping? Matthew BlackIceFX

I currently am running dual monitors, 22" widescreen and 19" standard aspect ratio monitor. I like the dual monitor setup and the 22" ease of view, but hate the fact that my designing is on widescreen and needs to be previewed on a standard screen to make sure it looks right instead of...

Flame, Quick question. I know thickness is good for the abrasive-resistance to abused areas on motobikes, but after reading some Convex tech info it states that the 4-6mil lam is fully suitable for the job. Thoughts? Matthew BlackIceFX

Flame, Need all the info I can get from you regarding Moto-X stuff! Not trying to compete on a large scale but I have a local small co asking for moto-x graphics. Let me know if you can help. Thanks, Matthew BlackIceFX

try clearing your preferences. you can find the option in your start menu of programs under flexi. if that doesn't work, then uninstall, reinstall. I just had my LXi software (toned down Flexi) Production Manager dump on me repeatedly and after a reinstall, works fine. Wish I would have...

Mason's got it. That also clears up what you were asking. Sorry, I don't think or process before noon. :Sleeping: Matthew BlackIceFX

I may be unclear on what you're asking... but I would assume one of 2 things is happening... one) your document is a set size, your clipping mask deleted part of the image or design but is still within the document border, creating a blank area or two) you haven't expanded/flattened the clipping...

Quick question, where is that option in CS2? This has bothered me too. Matthew BlackIceFX

Day Sign, thanks for the tip. I will definitely look into that next time. For now, the problem is getting LXi to reinstall... Matthew BlackIceFX

I don't use Norton, so this shouldn't be an issue. Currently, my antivirus, adaware, and firewall programs are all shut down in an effort to reinstall the LXi program. Matthew BlackIceFX

not to sound like a smarta$$ but I've seen lots of shops simply use Lowe's long arm and flush hinges. *shrug* I'm sure lots of sign suppliers have them but why not see what your local hardware store sells? Matthew BlackIceFX

My LXi (rebadged Flexi) has been working fine until a week ago. Suddenly, I can't send files to my Panther cutter because my production manager times out on loading. The production manager loads fine if I don't open LXi, and visa versa, but they won't run at the same time. I uninstalled the...

hmm for all of the opinions on this topic, I figured there would be more responses... Matthew BlackIceFX

Well.... I guess I'll reply to this one since most of the 'newbie' points seem to point to me. Yes, I have only been in the business full time for about a year now. I used to wholesale part time since 2002. Does that make me any more experienced or knowledgeable? Unfortunately, no. It...

have you been able to get wrap worthy blow ups out of your smaller hi-res images? Matthew BlackIceFX
