I was just looking back over my account at istock, and in 2004 credits were $0.50 each, and any size image was 1 credit. Compare that to today where a large image is 10 - 15 credits, putting the image cost at $15 to $20+, that amounts to a 3900% price increase over 6 years, or a 100% annualized...

When I started with them, everything was free. Between the diluted value of a credit and the constant price increases, I've had to move on to other sites. Too bad really, it was an excellent source in it's early years. Greed has definitely taken over.

The first thing I ask myself before buying anything outside of my core business is "Can I afford to pay for this item if it doesn't produce a dime of revenue?" If I am comfortable with the payment amount, and confident that it WILL produce revenue, I'll take the plunge. If not, the idea goes...

Nice job mate. I haven't had a chance to look at Phototex product yet, as no one in Western Canada seems to carry it, and the distributor in Ontario wants $1.39 a sqft for a 54"x100' roll, quite a premium over the price in the US. Anyone know of a decent distributor located in the Pacific...

Totally agree. Sadly, I have to laugh at the fact that while Mosh has stuck to his guns and remained on topic without slinging mud, the majority of responders have simply resorted to name calling instead of backing their thinking up or just ignoring the thread. What are you guys, 5...

The sales rep was supposed to call me back with pricing and availability, as well as details on an apparent clearout of the QM4 line. The one frustrating thing about the majority of the local sign suppliers is that they are never in a hurry to follow up on things, or get back to you. I really...

I am in the market for a laminator, and one of my local dealers mentioned that Daige has a new model coming to replace the Quickmount 4 series. Apparently, they are addressing a bunch of customer complaints with the new models. Anyone heard any more details on them?

Looked good thus far, so, what ever happened with this? Did you get it finished?

^^ Have to agree, I can't tell what your equipment produces at all from your videos.

Welcome from Vancouver, Canada!

i am wondering the same. Our local Gerber supplier has an Ion in the showroom now, and it looked pretty sweet. Th Oce Arizona is built here in the Lower Mainland, so I am hoping to get a walk through the plant in the next few weeks. Noticed not many people have mentioned the Oce unit, so I...

From one new member to another - Welcome!

Hey everyone, Just wanted to say hi from Vancouver! Been a lurker on the site for quite a while, finally decided to join and actually contribute where I can. I am coming into the industry from the Entertainment Industry (I was a Manufacturers Rep) and figured it was time for a change of...

Thanks SOOOO much for the templates, I've been thinking of skinning my Wii and 360 for a while, these will come in handy! Anyone know where one could find the templates for items such as ipods, blackberry's, and the like?
