If you use generic clipart (which is licensed to you) and just use a nice typeface (of YOUR choosing) for the number(s) you are free and clear. Don't sweat it. That said, here **may** be some moron out there who will be looking for an easy paycheck who will make some sort of noise. Do...

We stopped doing textiles a few years back...no competing with those folks printing in a spare bedroom (and there are many). We will do shirts for a political campaign if we do everything else, but that's it. What I did over 30 years ago was to make a pin registration system to handle...

Even if the design was printed on real wallpaper there HAS to be an overlap. You should ascertain the logic of the request first. The you should tell them, in no uncertain terms, that unlike paper product wallpaper that vinyl has a tendency to shrink and the seams may not properly butt...

Another good idea is to have a policy that customers must have an appointment to stop by. You make one to stop by their place to do a survey/estimate and they should do likewise. That will give you ample notice to push a broom (clean up a bit) and also avoid embarrassing moments such as...

There is an issue not many folks are aware of and I am only beginning my research into it (time is limited). The fonts that were used to create the typeface you used, should your client wish to carry that design forward on other projects (such as a web page, etc.), really should be licensed...

38 point is nowhere near 1/2". Point is another name for a mil. A mil is 0.001 inch. If my math is correct, that is ever so slightly over 3/8" of an inch.

I have never used it, but that stuff has many adherents in the shirt forums. They seem to love it.

Due to the change in the FL Constitution a while back I moved my corporate office (not the shop) to my garage. Being where I am sited, there are no requirements for a business lic. from the the local political subdivision as they did away with those about 8-10 years ago. But most cities and...

Don't ask me how I know but any protection PDF has ever had was cracked within the week it first appeared...and the tools to do so can be easily found (for free) if you know where to look.

LOL!!! T-shirts and banner scams...now headstones!!!!

The immediate two links below have a few vector footballs. The first is in color. The second is B&W. http://www.extremeclipart.com/catalog/Football_Clipart-21-1.html http://signtorch.com/vector/clipart.htm?s=super&p=sports Then it is simply a matter of adding texture. Discussed here...

There is a product I saw demonstrated at one of the trade shows called "Ghost Off" Demo @ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1JooGGK0kOk I have my doubts about that stuff but for short term I suppose it works.

As to "1/2'” thick, particle board laminated with melamine top and bottom..." I don't know what that is unless you actually mean front and back. Forget "particle" anything and go with Masonite (as suggested) or check out Scooter Board. SB is intended for outdoor use and costs are reasonable...

A word of advice that I got from a guy who has done several Super Bowl installs and that is NEVER rely on building blueprints for measurements....take them yourself....twice! Better yet, you and a partner each take measurements and then compare the two.

There are plenty of neon-like fonts. Any 'effect' is done within your vector or paint program AFAIK.

Maybe you missed my 2nd post in this thread. I have repossessed one sign and assisted on 6 others (because he is my electric truck guy and high sign installer and I can use sweat equity vs. cash when I help him out). I posted an answer from a FAQ that was written by the State of CN's...

While you were there you should have pulled off one of the sign retainers and mic'd the thickness of the sign stock. That way you could give the client 2 quotes. One for re-lettering and using the old face and one for a replacement face. Since it is a start-up, I'll bet they would love to...

All the glass will have to be replaced. The mirrors he currently has are most likely fully opaqued in the silver backing (has to be or it wouldn't be reflective) Your local glass company will cut and supply what is needed to replace what is there now. Let them do the job. They are the...

Gino, for being a merchant member you sure don't know much about merchant law, the UCC or anything, do you? Once you "sell" the sign and there is a balance due you are now a CREDITOR and creditors have rights under the law. One of them is repossession!!! As a creditor, you have "security"...
