I like the bottom right as well. Very clean.

I don't own the shop I work in, but when you enter our reception area it's actually a Hot Sauce Shoppe and a Sandwich Shop. Bottles of hot sauce, rubs, garlics, etc, on shelves on every wall. The owner, (being a chef quality cook), did a promotion one Saturday for some smokers he bought to sell...

Since the boat is obviously not in pristine condition and the customer seems to simply want some vinyl on it I'd suggest cleaning it with comet cleanser. That will remove enough of the oxidation to allow the vinyl to stick. Done this a few times and it always worked for me. It's the best...

I did one similar size for each side of a customer's van. It was over 2 years ago and they're still stuck. I doubt he's ever taken them off so chances are he'd need a chisel to get them off now. But as others have said about the potential disaster. I didn't want to do it then and probably...

Somebody cut my banner too short.

I became obsessed with the "O" in box. The "O" is kinda the opposite of a box (square vs round) so I'm then obsessed with making a square peg work in a round hole. By now I'm as twisted as your avatar. Nonetheless, I came up with some goofy ideas...

Although I can't help the OP with printing as my own knowledge is lacking, your advise was well taken by me. It reminds me of back in the beginning when some friends were setting up a home recording studio. We needed a sound card but know nothing about them. In one article, the best of all...

We're using a Mimaki CG160FX and FineCut out of Illustrator. Agree with everything Ski Sign says.

Has your boss ever worked with vinyl before? It doesn't sound like it. I guess your approach is going to depend on how bad the body of the car is. Some of them are either banged up badly or put together badly in the first place. Is it an actual car body or one fabricated by the race crew? The...

The serif font you're using on the word "Productions" is thin, weak and hard to read. That is one reason you are being told to change them. There needs to be a balance between your headline font and that secondary one. Right now that balance looks/feels way out of whack. One is huge, slamming...

First, insert a blade into the blade holder. The tip of the blade should be protruding from the holder by very little. Your manual, if you read it, will tell you to allow the blade to protrude no more than just enough to cut through the thickness of the media you are cutting. For some overkill...

Never wet. While applying you'll see that you wouldn't need it anyway. Clean, clean, clean the surface getting into crevices really well and remove any wax. Take off door handles and anything else that could get in your way. Take the time to plan out your procedure before laying any vinyl...

I googled the crap out of several keyword phrases to no avail. Is there any chance she took that with a film camera? If so you could have the prepress department of a large format printing company scan the photo at a very high resolution for you. That would give you a working chance of...

I'm ready to run back to work and do mine! Never thought it would be that easy.

Very nice indeed.

Welcome from Northeast Ohio!

Mr. Jackson, I just noticed you on this board. Welcome. Though I don't wish to gush, I do want to tell you that over the years I've learned a great deal from your SignCraft articles. I also remember your move to Jackson Hole. It's good to see you posting on here. Looking forward to your...

I've always sent them an .eps with type converted to outlines. If there are images in the file they are 300ppi .tiffs. I love the print quality and price at 4over.

Looks great. I like the first one best. Only change would maybe to remove the two lower chopper windows as said earlier. But with no changes it's a great job.

I'll hand-cut some odd-shaped designs when I can do that quicker than I can set it up on the cutter and wait for it to do it's thing. Also, some square or rectangular printed projects that have ink coverage all the way around the border like a 12 x 18 rectangular sign with white letters and a...
