  1. Knifeless tape and combinations...

    Got a job coming up shortly and it would take forever to get right trying to pre-cut... basically I'll be filling in pre-striped designs with a chrome film. The original striping will be covered, but trying to match the existing with a template/cut started as a nightmare. So I decide that the...
  2. custom stamps, self inking or otherwise

    Google shows a plethora of everything, including bad deals, overpriced junk and folks just not worth dealing with :) We're in the middle of a major expansion, I have enough to do it once, but I don't have enough to do it twice... Simon's looks like great prices and tons of options, any...
  3. custom stamps, self inking or otherwise

    Not sure where this one should go, sorry if it's the wrong area... We need to add some stamps to the office, not thrilled with what is out there. Stamps for things like void, paid, received, etc. Some are ok for internal, but I wanted some custom ones for paperwork that heads out the door...
  4. Rebates for customers?

    This is one we've been talking about for a while, trying to figure out the best approach. What we've arrived at so far is that we're not going to do any cash back anything, rather some sort of points system towards discounts on future orders. Much easier for me to charge a little less than for...
  5. New shop Insurance

    Which part about wrapping cars would they not insure... and why wouldn't you have insurance even when running a shop from home? We operate on the same property as our residence (man it's nice not worrying about rent) and are insured through Hartford for the screen/apparel side as well as...
  6. Encouraging copyright violation? I'm confused...

    Just got an e-mail from SignWarehouse (not sure why, never patronized them...) and one of their sale items was this http://www.signwarehouse.com/EMAILBL-V-ATTRIBUTE-p-BUND-HM70-SOCHI.html?utm_source=MailingList&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feb+4+2014+WDeals+REMAIL Which seems to me to be...
  7. Finding the copyright owner... Feeling lost

    I'm not trying to debate whether or not it CAN be done, I will maintain my integrity and not try to skate by, yes, I've lost business because of that. This is not the point of my question. My question was/is Does anyone have a better method than just a reverse image search to locate the...
  8. Finding the copyright owner... Feeling lost

    Yup, my thoughts, that's why I'm hoping someone here has some advice on a way to track it down, I know I can't be the first person to run into this and the posts I've seen similar all mention reverse image searching, which yielded a huge number of random results. I will add that with so many...
  9. So... what is a domain worth?

    I had a few that I registered, common alternate/misspelling of a company I had a few years back. Guy in Australia messaged me and asked to buy them, as they weren't the exact spelling of my name, but were of his. He offered $500 for the pair, I took it. I've tried to buy a few that related to...
  10. Finding the copyright owner... Feeling lost

    I had a client ask for a graphic to be incorporated into a design, a reverse search through Tineye came up with 450 matches all over the place. None that I looked at out of several dozen, appeared to be the artist nor anyone with legitimate ability to license. Any tips on how to go about...
  11. Comic Sans

    Hesitant to agree, but I've done a number of things that aren't in my portfolio, nor do I acknowledge the existence of. Depends on how big it is... if it's some flyers or a small sign, why not. If it's an entire storefront or shopping center, do something else. There are hundreds of fonts...
  12. yard signs on my property

    Yard sign real estate rental fees: $50/day-customer provided or $5/week when purchased through you :)
  13. Website pricing

    I dunno, sometimes it feels like trying to take out a housefly with a shotgun to implement a CMS for a 5-10 page site. When you factor in updates and security, sometimes a static site (done in CSS, NOT tables) can be just what's called for. Your last comment is kinda funny, I went out to quote...
  14. Website pricing

    I WISH that was a good price, I'd quit my day job. 6 pages with a client managed gallery, essentially static (meaning not based on a content management system) somewhere in the 2-3k range. I don't typically deal with the CMSs out there, not a fan, not my niche, but I'll often build in several...
  15. Motorcycle wrap questions

    Started some modifications to my 98 Road King, things got delayed and I got tired of it being on a lift. I'm still working on the modifications, but off the bike, I picked up some extra tins and parts to use for now. There lies my dilemma. Nothing matches, and I don't feel like burning a...
  16. Fellers

    We're still new in the game, there are so many vendors out there, it gets confusing. I've been choosing who to purchase from based on the service I receive almost more than the price. This is a new venture for me, but I'm not new to the world of business, I started in retail many years ago and...
  17. What NOT to do when Selling a 4x8 sign and installing it....

    Seems like some pretty obvious mistakes there for anyone who has ever done any kind of install...
  18. Think you're having a rough day at work?

    Had some neighbors who liked to play that 'game', first time they came towards me, I politely informed them that it would cause the .380 in my belt to go off, they shouldn't do it. They asked how that was possible and I said "convulsions of my right index finger."
  19. Stand alone Wacom Tablet coming soon

    Thanks for the link on the stylus, heard it was in the works but had forgotten about it (no release date last I heard). That's going on my list for sure. I'd tried other, single-level, ones before but none did more than a 'pen on cocktail napkin-esque' drawing. 2k for a standalone Cintique...
  20. Lol, saw this on the road

    A 'hipster' shop did it, they were being ironic :) yeah, that's it, ironic...
