  1. Is this a custom font?

    im sureeeee there is something close out there, but that looks like it was done by hand. The thickness varies in every letter and that E has somethin crazy goin on.
  2. Font ID Please!

    no pic?
  3. Looking for Grim Reaper picture

    Kind of an odd request. But I am looking for a good picture of the grim reaper. The stuff I have found online is...ehh...not really what i am looking for. I have to airbrush this sometime this week on my friends goalie helmet so if anyone has one not from google that they would be willing to...
  4. Graphics rookie looking for guidance for Race car graphics

    If its in your budget, get the 30" now. Trust me that 6" now will save you some kicking yourself in the @ss later on.
  5. Graphics rookie looking for guidance for Race car graphics

    Race cars = templates few and far between... If you ask the majority of the ppl on here who do them they are going to tell you they take photos with a measuring tape up to the vehicle and scale it up in photoshop. There are just way too many variables on each car to take into consideration. As...

  7. Teckwin printers

    Umm, could be mistaken but isnt Graphtec based out of Santa Ana, CA? And for that matter, look at Seiko...HP buys up their machines and rebrands it to the HP9000s. Most of the equipment is made overseas and they have their offices here. As long as your tech support is located here your fine...
  8. Motor Feed Error

    lol thats the problem... 50+ banners in an order and you can only put a damn 50 yard roll on before you gotta change it...and change it....and change it -- hate babysitting machines
  9. Hi, I look forward to learning

    If you are this familiar with Illustrator you have a great advantage. There are several cutting plug-ins available for it (provided by the cutting manufacturer normally) I use FineCut from Mimaki and I must say, i rarely use Flexi at all anymore.
  10. I Like Gold

    quick mock up, might help ya.
  11. I Like Gold

    if i may make a suggestion to you Kevin, make a selection of the circle only (the first one) and touch it up with the "Color Dodge" tool on the upper right and lower left. This will make it look like light is hitting it and make it look like a metal because of the shine =)
  12. I Like Gold

    lol that would be the way to go except he said... "I do not want to print on gold."
  13. Black overspray

    it sounds like a build up of ink/dirt under the print head. Sometimes this happens after printing banner. The scrim fibers tend to stick if they are loose and the print heads were set to low. Take a peek underneath, make sure you don't see anything on the heads.
  14. What laminators are you using?

    SEAL Image 600md & SEAL 80 Pro for hard laminates AccuCoat 1600 & just recently added the AccuCoat 3300 for the liquid laminating. They are great but require meticulous cleaning after each use or you end up with a real mess.
  15. Black overspray

    is it a vector file you are trying to print? i have had a problem with some vector files on out HP10000 but as soon as i rasterize it...its fine.
  16. I Like Gold

    i have a couple of premade styles i have saved in photoshop over the years if you would like me to send you a few. Depending on what font you use, the effect will vary so you might need to tweak it.
  17. Motor Feed Error

    Sure, there are fixes for it like unrolling the media before it is ready to go through... then you have to worry about media contamination, media skewing etc. It really doesn't permit unattended printing if you are doing 50 banners per order.
  18. Motor Feed Error

    Yeah it sucks, i was hoping a 3rd party would start making an aftermarket set of rollers for the smaller machines so you could load a bigger roll on it without this error. Having to swap out 50yd rolls when you have a short production run of banners sucks and it is never really feasible to use...
  19. Motor Feed Error

    how heavy is the roll you are using? i know with our smaller machines the biggest rolls of material we can use are the 50yd rolls.
  20. cutting out an image

    The magnetic lasso has its moments but if you are looking for a clean cut....thats not the way to go. Depending on what you are trying to cut out the Magic Wand tool might work for you depending on how you set the threshhold at the top. The pen tool is absolutely the best overall for making...
