  1. Discussion Forget Tariffs, what about a Pandemic?

    I think the point was how this will affect the global supply chain. But your wife's family situation illustrates what's really important. Prayers for her and family. Hopefully the China's government can get a handle on it, but they don't have a great humanitarian track-record, particularly in...
  2. SAI Flexi 10 Major Disappointment!

    I don't get it, they call every day asking to verify my social security number. They threatened to close me down if I don't pay back taxes. But how can I do that? My people are standing around waiting for our software to work with our Commodore 64. If IRS would only do their part to make...
  3. SAI Flexi 10 Major Disappointment!

    Sorry Tex, I don't understand. Could someone please explain?
  4. Discussion Copyright Issues

    Agree with that, but what I want to know is if you can ship that $45 banner here to Midwest USA so I can finally make some money on banners. Even better if that's Canadian currency.
  5. SAI Flexi 10 Major Disappointment!

    Printer manufacturers, consumer electronics; now that I think of it, almost anything remotely connected with technology has a defined support life. BTW, car dealers won't work on your car for free, and try calling General Motors for tech support for your 2000 Pontiac. I get it, you're...
  6. SAI Flexi 10 Major Disappointment!

    Not unusual for a reseller to defer support to the software company, so not sure why you would blame Fellers for not supporting outdated software or even current versions. Could be wrong but I believe Flexi 10 is past end of life with 19 being the current version. We have version 12 and...

    Hmm - It appears there is at least ONE other 'human' sign shop owner that sees value in in-person networking. Doesn't surprise me that this discussion is taking place on a social media site, where it's so easy easy to express opinions that are essentially 'my opinion is the final word and...
  8. Screen Print Yard Signs

    I think the shift key on your keyboard is sticky. Might want to get that fixed.
  9. Avast Users Anyone?

    No hate here, but 'Shouldn't' is irrelevant. I probably shouldn't leave a package on the seat of my car but locking the car will still keep a large number of miscreants out if i forget. Having a Ransomware protection, backup strategy, antivirus etc. in place is the same as being in the habit...
  10. Avast Users Anyone?

    Good points all. One thing I really like aboubt that integration is that Windows has a specific ransomeware controlled access that allows you to identify particular directories to revoke access. Also has ability to whitelist apps that need access to those folders. Check out...
  11. Avast Users Anyone?

    Same here; but also use Malwarebytes which is focused as the name implies on Malware.

    Sorry - Meant to reply to Wow - I share some skepticism on the value of some of these organizations, but I'm not about to make a blanket rejection of anyone's efforts to build business through relationships and I wouldn't share your apparent opinion that cold calling and checking web-sites is...
  13. Need Help Flexi is printing all black inked sheets, no graphics.

    Strange. This is a guess; You didn't say if you imported the file into Flexi Design from another app like AI or Corel, but if you did you might be printing an object that isn't showing in Flexi or some other anomaly exists because of an import issue.

    NFIB is primarily a (effective) business lobbying org so that won't help gain customers, but good resource for keeping up on and influencing govt. policy and affecting small biz. I attended a BNI meeting and was put off by the fact that most in there were mid low/mid level managers and...
  15. Suggestions Need poster paper

    https://www.sihlinc.com/technologies/trisolv/ Good stuff - not sure about Canadian Dist but Sihl carried lots of places...
  16. Suggestions Storefront Window Vinyl - Single Words Layout

    Agree w/Boudica. All same size font. If not iconic to their brand and you can influence wording, drop 'Indomitable' and just have 'Spirit'. Stack Self-Control or replace with something like Poise. Replace Perseverance with Tenacity. That should allow all same size, larger font.
  17. Need Help Caldera Roland SG300 Color calibration

    A complex subject to cover in a post. Color management in general (regardless of your equipment) is something apparently not taught in much depth to graphic designers. Teaching your graphic arts students basic color management principles would be a huge advantage to them in the workplace...
  18. Question Storage for Sheet Materials

    Visited one of my friendly competitors who stores vertical, but uses an adjustable wood frame to apply horizontal pressure on the boards to keep them from bowing. Clever.
  19. Association Memberships

    Those are curious comments. Red Clay mentioned SGIA and ISA which are both 'graphics or sign' organizations. Having attended both shows, I'm glad they exist for that purpose. Whether to join is another debatable topic. I belonged to SGIA for a couple of years, but like a lot of...
  20. HP Latex - Color Consistency and Print Head Life

    Far from 'expert' but we have been using latex going on 10 years. Pretty certain low ink not an issue - except perhaps if the printer has sat for a very long time without use or user failed to shake ink cartridge before installing. We always let ink run completely out before changing...
