  1. Our first full wrap.

    That looks good, especially for a first try! Those cars are not easy to work with, we have them over here also, where they are simply called L200. That top on the truck bed looks way better than the hideous boxes the Mitsubishi distributor offers over here, take a look at this "beauty".. The...
  2. Metrostyling Avery Metro series Matte wrap vinyls

    I have ordered from Metro Restyling a couple of times on their ebay store. Mostly samples and smaller runs of vinyl that have been unavailable over here in Norway. They have shipped within a day or two every time, maybe they are more attentive to this via ebay? I don't know. All good experiences...
  3. adobe Illustrator

    Mark the objects - pathfinder - merge.
  4. New Logo

    If you are keeping the Gorilla in the logo, how would NOT everyone be confused about if it is Gorilla (the animal) or Guerrilla (marketing strategy or warfare group) that is misspelled? Lose the monkey until your daughter actually takes over in the (far?) future, now it only serves to confuse...
  5. My first proper shop! (moving out of the basement)

    Thanks for the support guys! :) It will be great to move out and set up the equipment in a proper commercial building. Most of the local customer base (car dealerships etc) are located in the same commercial area, only a few hundred yards away, the placement is ideal :) I have made a sketch...
  6. My first proper shop! (moving out of the basement)

    I just signed a deal for a new shop, and I'm really looking forward to moving out of the home basement in the middle of a residential area to a brand new locale right in the busiest and most expanding commercial area in the island I live in! I started my own business about a year and a half...
  7. Oracal 970ra problem.

    Overstretching maybe? What other wrap vinyls have you used that do not cause these issues? I have used 970RA in police green, gloss white, gloss black and dark grey metallic and not seen any problem areas on the cars I have wrapped. Could you enclose a pic that shows the issues?
  8. and you fuss about weeding 1/2" letters!!!

    He may not charge by the square foot, but you can still estimate his square foot price when a sculpture that takes up 1/50 of the space on a pinhead is priced at $300,000,00. I think Bill Gates and Warren Buffet would have to pull together to afford a square foot of his work :D Also, amazing...
  9. The Olympics logo

    But on the other hand, is there a really good Olympics logo from any of the previous events?
  10. Anyone want to trade likes on FACEBOOK?

    I only just lauched my page today, but here it is for those who want to like a small company in Norway :) http://www.facebook.com/OttesenDesign I have looked at all of your pages and liked them all, always interesting to see the work of fellow signmakers and graphics artists :)
  11. How do you manage an employee who knows more than you?

    You may be a new guy, but already sounding like the biggest a-hole in this entire forum. Who would want to take time to help out someone like you? Calling the ones you reach out to for help a-holes with small pathetic businesses, and asking if they have no life or a business to run AND STILL...
  12. Wrapping the inside of a vehicle?

    Design the wrap so there is even blue sky all around where the sides meet the roof part, and you have saved yourself a lot of trouble lining it all up. Just put most of the clouds in the roof section, and maybe some small ones towards the top of the sides, but a clean blue sky all around where...
  13. Oracal vinyl for pvc/banner substrate?

    Good to know :) I have all of his colours in stock in 751 also, so then I am basically ready to quote him for the project. Thanks for the quick response!
  14. Oracal vinyl for pvc/banner substrate?

    A client of mine has recently purchased a mobile concert stage (7x10meters) and he wants some text and his logo on the sides. They are made from PVC (like banner material), but are stretched up like a permanent canvas, so they will stay in place like that, not folded when the stage is set up...
  15. I thought i knew how to make yard signs, Guess not

    And if all goes to plan, Wall Street is picking up the bill! :D
  16. So ... Whaddya call THIS??! A YAP?

    Is that a Morris Minor underneath the yarn?
  17. That was stupid!

    This reminds me of a incident that happened to a buddy of mine, only it was the other way around, bank made the mistake. So over here you have a 11 digit account number, and almost all bank transactions are done online. But he needed to stop his loan for 2 months (and only pay the interest)...
  18. Why do greys print Purple

    Also, do you have regular fluorescent lighting in your work area? These do not output a full colour spectrum, so the light that is reflected off the grey print can get a purple hue. How do they look outside in the sunlight? We had the same issues at my old workplace, we got a (then) brand new...
  19. Odd one, Daihatsu Mini Truck Templates?

    People are actually trying to help, these trucks have a basic rectangle for a "hood" (engine is under the seats). You say you only need this, surely you customer can take a ruler and measure the width and height, instead of you going on a plane in order to do so? This whole issue can be solved...
  20. 200 drafts - then a chance at the contract?

    I though it was 1 draft to make 200 movie posters, not the other way around? Like "big heads over small people on beach" and "through the legs" to name a few :D
