  1. Business name

    I would like to thank all of you for taking time to reply.
  2. Illy question

    +1 for the Vector Dr. The first thing I usually do upon opening a file in Illustrator is view it in outline mode. I find a lot of junk (clipping mask, stray points, and unused space in text boxes to name a few) that can be trashed and have no ill effect on the final product.
  3. How to create a multipage .pdf from .jpgs?

    Here is a video on creating a multi page pdf with Illustrator. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uodtgSlH5hs It runs through kinda fast but gives you a general idea. I have found that CorelDRAW usually works best for me.

    Several years ago I worked at a new car dealer as an auto tech. One day one of the other techs had just repaired a customers vehicle and the customer comes back in complaining about how bad the vehicle is running now. The car was running great but the customer thought the tech was to young to...

    Might try here. Looks as though it may be trademarked. Could just be the entire design though.

  11. Should you fire this employee?

    If you let him stay, to him you just became a push over. He can have his way and play the feel sorry for me card at any time and walk free. This is his method of thinking now that he has gotten by with it once. The employee I had to fire was fired 3 or 4 days before Christmas. Timing may be...
  12. Should you fire this employee?

    I had a similar situation happen to me in my auto repair shop. The employee was a real asset to my company and worked very hard and was always bringing in new business.

  13. Three weeks in to the Graphtec CE5000-60

    This is how I do it. When I first got mine I also had trouble with it popping the vinyl and causing tracking issues. Started draping the vinyl and have had much better success at straight tracking.

  17. dye sub anyone?

    We use an Epson 4800 with Sublijet IQ inks. The other posts are correct as anything outdoors will have to be UV coated or will fade drastically. License plates can be placed under a UV cover and hold up nicely. Air Art Girl is also right about pricing on blanks, cheaper isn't always the best...
  18. Tiger Mascot

    A local high school with the wildcat logo used the UK wildcat until UK found out. They had to change all their signs and even the the logos in the school floors and the gymnasium. However you see it being used all across the country. They just better hope they never have a UK scout come to...
