I was just thinking the same thing. I was getting really annoyed with the the guy so let him take of and I told him I would redo the job next week.

Hi All, Hope you are having a great Friday. Hoping someone can help me out here. So I have a project where I'm putting a 4" stripe down both sides of a bed on a pick up truck (Tundra). So you know the area where the back of the bed turns? Right at the brake light where it turns to meet the...

This is crazy. You gotta know who this company is. If you make ada/braille signs or any related product, you have to have heard of Accent. I really feel for those guys over there. Good folks to to business with.

Don't sweat it brother. If we spend time comparing ourselves or measuring ourselves based on the achievements or successes of others, we will never be satisfied and we will drive our selves insane (speaking from experience). Just chalk it up. It was not meant for you. It wasn't your...

Absolutely. Every sign small or large, we put a small decal with the company info. With the only exception being ADA, and double sided items for obvious reasons. We had even started putting phone numbers and web address in the folded part of banner hems. We get calls from these all the time.

Sorry to bring back an old thread. But I just wanted to thank Bob. This tip was spot on and help me out of a jam today. Thank you Sir!

Ah you caught that. But FYI its not new/good media. Its a bunch of old 30" stuff from our (long gone) sp300. For some reason a few folks around here think that one day we will find a need for it. Believe me. that rack moves an inch closer to the dumpster every day. lol

Hi All, So we have been using Pro-Ban (low cost 13oz digital banner) for some time now. We have swaped for similar media here and there. But mostly we print on the same stuff for your average short term banner. Here is the problem. I like to load up and let the machine go unattended. But...

Thanks everyone! I had to pull the trigger on something. So I went with the Avery 2611 and the 1080 lam. I will report back how it went. Also looking forward to getting that phototex sample. We'll see how that pans out.

Hi All, hope you're all having a great month. I have a job for a mega client (for us any way) and I want to put my best foot forward on this one. Its a small wall wrap. Now, I have used 3M IJ40 with some success. But on occasion it comes off around the edges. No big deal just go back...

Hi All! Happy Friday! (Happy not because the work week is over, but because there is work to carry us in to the weekend!) I'm sure this has been done before but its still fun nonetheless... Finish this sentence" You know your a Sign Maker when... You find bits of vinyl on your...

What's good Scotty? I hope you enjoyed your first couple of days. Did you guys make it down to the Wind & Sea?

What tools to you have at hand? Photoshop? Flexi? Illustrator? What do the images look like? Full on color pictures or basic shapes and or text?

Your right. But one question. Am I the only one that suffers with this problem? Sometimes during the workday (or night) your trying to bust arse and work fast and hard to knock out your proofs and run production and answer phones. And your looking at that text on screen and instead of words it...

*sigh* I have to re-make 15 2-3 signs. I mixed up some letters in the word "fields" in some small copy. So it became "Felid" Customer signed proof, and I made the signs. Same stuff I do every day. But what gets me, is I spell check every thing. But who would've known. "Felid" is...

Thanks for the tips. Got it done!

I somewhat agree. I would love to hear what the gallery has to say about this. But you are straddling a fine line here even with this site's TOS.

Hi All, Any tips on putting Trim Cap on channel letter faces? I am redoing just one shape of a sign (I did not make the originals). I just want to replace the face not the can. I have already printed the image, and mounted it to the acrylic and cut it out. Now I just want to put on the...

+1 I always proof this way and I list output size on proof also. Alleviates 99% of the problems for me.

charge him $250. send him here: http://tinyurl.com/65mcypl That should give him a base point to allow him to ask some what informed questions...
