  1. Mileage Tracking iPhone App

    Anyone here use one? My accountant kinda got on me for not being as diligent in the previous year of tracking all my work stuff. There are a bunch out there, and every single one seems to have good and bad reviews. I don't want to pay anything annual, but I'd pay for a good one up front no...
  2. Did i follow the right line?

    I play this game every time I do a ford van. I followed the longest line in the van like I always do...but man, that's just not right looking. Not sure the other line would look any better though.
  3. Frisbees?

    I had a customer come in wanting some frisbees. I'm not real sure where to even get these. I know there's places online, but I'd rather not use someone that's the lowballer, unless they are really a wholesaler if I can avoid it. If not, I'll just use one of the places marketing to EVERYONE...
  4. The "How's Business" thread

    We've been dead since after Thanksgiving...that's usually par for the course for us. We basically had like one or two jobs in January...thank goodness it snowed a lot and I got to go plow. We've got a few things coming in now that the sun came out, but still crazy slow. I think it's like this...
  5. I'm sticking to my guns...right?!

    I had some guy come in Friday when I was out, and want a "logo" he had designed put on his drums. I got in today and saw it, and had other things to do, so didn't call him back right away, then he called at lunch wanting to know what the situation was on it. I called him back when I got back...
  6. Looking for an artist that can create this backdrop

    I have a picture given to me from the local high school, and we kind of need to re-create some things with a 9-11 theme to them. The awesome part is that I need to have them by like next Monday at the latest. Here is what I have to work with, they need the twin towers and city in one, the...
  7. Solvent vs Laser Ink - What's the diff?

    I am working with a local photography lab, and we have been printing window decals on 3621 for short term school athletic layouts for them. They have been trying to figure out how to do this one their own, and are now trying printing on that material with a Laser Printer. Anyone do printing...
  8. Local High School Swimming Signs

    Had some parents come to me and want us to do swimming signs for them to put in their yards. I am MAJORLY at a loss for a design because I need something that you look at and it screams swimming, but it needs to be a unisex design, and not just male or female. I've looked several times on...
  9. When a customer comes in, what do you wait on the most?

    I just had a guy come in, and we had a 30 second conversation. When it came time for him to give me his contact info, it took him literally 3 minutes to look up his phone information because "he never calls himself so why would he know it?" This would be alright if it only happened a few...
  10. Looking for a designer able to work in the next day or two.

    I had a customer come to me with a rush job, and I needed to see if anyone could point me towards a talented professional designer. I have already checked with my usual list of people from S101, and they have all informed me that they are too busy to handle anything until next week. It is...
  11. I think I just screwed the pooch. What would you do?

    I worked on quoting a job for a guy like, 5 months ago. I had the quote, and then I'd try to get a hold of him, and it'd be a month before I could catch him when he had time to talk, or we got together. Well, last time we talked, he had all these trucks he was going to do, and he still wanted...
  12. Does anyone do engraving or used to?

    I had a customer come to me wanting some engraving. The previous owner of my business still owns engraving equipment, I didn't buy that part. I told them we could take care of it, and had the previous owner do the job. I know that they said that the cost of materials seems to have gone up...
  13. Looking for Baldwin, MI trail information.

    We are heading up to trail ride this weekend, and I am looking for a parking lot address to put in my GPS. We are looking for the wider trails, I believe it's Little Manistee from the info I've gathered online, but I just can't find any information on parking lots. Just thought I'd put some...
  14. Anyone have something about RTA vinyl for customers?

    I have all these customers that come in acting like they know more about cutting and installing vinyl than I do day after day after day, then when it's time to pick it up and pay, they waste my time trying to have me hold their hand through the installation process, and quite frankly, it's...
  15. Anyone that knows much about photography AND printing?

    We are wanting to do window perf across this door here, to match the side of the building and kind of "hide" the door if you will. I don't know rather we're going to be better off taking a picture in the sun and printing that, or taking one in the shade. Ideas on what will match best? I would...
  16. I saw this on FailBlog.org and didn't even laugh

    This is such a common thing here, I don't even laugh anymore.
  17. Ingrown Toenail

    Ok guys...I'm lookin' for solutions here. I usually have an ingrown toenail on one foot or another every other month or so that requires "attention". It's really not a big deal to me, because I have delt with it before, and it's just a matter of soaking my foot, or shoving something under the...
  18. What was that trick in Acrobat?

    I have a file that in Acrobat looks great, and is exactly what I need, but it apparently isn't "Outlined" and so when I open it in Illustrator, I lose everything, and it goes to my default fonts. I did a search for the trick someone talked about how to solve this issue, but I can't find it, or...
  19. Can anyone tell me what this is called? *Military

    I had a customer bring this in, and I for the life of me can't think of what it's called, and I need to find it in a vector.
  20. A little help from the other iPhone owners.

    I just got my iPhone this week, but I just now noticed this little "circle" "processing" thing going on next to my wifi bars, and it seems that my response from within some of my apps got slower. My question is...is that thing spinning meaning it's pulling data from the tower now instead of my...
