my spare change... I have been a FS user since 6. Love the app. But it is not a full featured suite. IMO, It truly needs the other apps (Photoshop, Illy) to fill out a sign shops capabilities. I think the whole cloud thing is just an attempt to get on the bandwagon. And it may open up another...

damn you beat me to it hahahhahha

My .02s... I'm not sure what I'm missing here. Maybe my definition of broker is wrong. We work with brokers all the time. And much of it is good, solid, profitable work. Now these guys are not work-from-home so called graphic designers trying to nudge their way into our industry. These are...

I have purchased from Signburst before. Great investment. Great Service. Well worth it albeit pricey. But so is my Porsche Cayenne... that I dream about. I just completed a new build for our design station. All said and done I spent about 1600. But prices will be up a bit as the goal of this...

Classic!

...in no particular order. Joe Diaz Dan Antonelli

This is a no no IMO. Whats going to happen is your are going to design and price. Then client is going to take your spec and forward to next guy with a note, "Here are the specs. Can you beat this price?" And of course they will drop the price because you did 1/3 of the work. In the early...

Once again. Spot on. Never really paid attention to how much that font changes when you select the bold face. Thank you Sir!

Yeah, Second surface. No problem do it ALL the time. But try it with 100 2" tall laser cut letters. Or just doing 2 - 12"x12" signs first surface. Doable, yes. Effect on the man hour/or easy to clean up. Not so much. At least the way we are currently set up. We do this sometimes. But running...

Awesome! Thanks for the tips. I think that Graco (truecoat pro II) system is the one! Top features for us: Easy to clean. No thinning Repairable! We shall see how it goes.

I'm stuck on this one. Can't find it for the life of me. FindMyFont is coming close, but no cigars. Can't tell if this is a plain old font, or is this some chopped and squished custom variant. It's the "R" and the "E" that are driving me crazy. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi All, We have a series of small jobs in which we paint some Acrylic with latex. In the past its only been square and rectangle shapes, painted second surface and backed with vinyl to protect the paint. Foam roller, set to dry over night, done deal. Now we are adding some elements to the...

Super cool. I'm subbed to this one! :popcorn:

This may sound silly but, have you tried cleaning the eye? Sometimes the over-spray builds up on the sensor eye making it difficult for it to detect the contrast of the crop marks. THis has work for me in the past.

Since we are still slinging Acrobat praise, Here are a few more benies: Ever have a client send you a weird PDF/Art? You cant open it in other apps. They don't know where it came from? They don't have the original art/logo? It has embedded fonts that you don't have? Or want you to retype that...

WOW. If someone is getting 1200 for that design... Hell, ANY wrap design, I need to rethink my entire strategy

Best feature IMO is it adds a printer driver so that you can "Print" to a PDF file. I use it daily to create proofs. Also great for creating/separating multipage PDFs.

Thank you Sir!

True. And I agree. He is a nice guy. It was a great moment when I walked into one of the Cali locations, and he come to the counter. Ten gallon hat and all. Sweat on his brow with a dirty apron on. He had been working in back making banners, filling in for an employee who was out with an...

Seems ever since Ameriban became Fellers, there has been a general discontent for their catalogs in the industry. I wonder if Frank pays attention to this stuff. Never mind. It's clear he doesn't. I get it. It's branding. But sans his pic on every other page, I still like the other stuff.
