i've never been too keen on drawing with a stylus, just never felt right with the delay and funky tips. while i'm digg'n the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil... there's a bit of a learning curve with the popular illustration apps, Adobe Sketch, Adobe Draw, Procreate and such. i just downloaded an app...

Most printers in my area won't deal with small jobs (anything under $100), so I'm looking for recommendations preferably an S101 merchant member. It doesn't have to be California, but especially with these small jobs, fast turnaround and timely shipping can blow the budget.

if i had a hammer, i'd hammer in the morning, i'd hammer in the evening.... all over this HAND. 2 minutes after impact... 2 days later... 2 months later, when asked what happen to your hand i'd say... "the first rule of Fight Club is... do not talk about fight club" although the day i...

I love the show The Profit, and just watch last nights episode, which was with a sign shop in PA called Precise Graphix. Usually Marcus is all about the process and I'm wondering why he, or anyone else in the shop, didn't feel like their designer was responsible for too many things, considering...

By default, when you update your Adobe CC apps, it now automatically REMOVES and saves over prior versions! i knew this already and was sure i'd already deselected the override feature. i just finished updating all my apps to cc 2015 and found ALL PRIOR VERSIONS OF EVERY APP MISSING! Before...

Thank god for old threads! I received an email today from an old client that I haven't heard from since early 2010. Normally my response to an email that reads "we're in a pinch and need your help" would be "nice to hear from you, how can I help." I knew that wasn't the right way to respond to...

While searching for something totally unrelated, I came across this cling wrap. Don't know that I'd try it but interesting none the less. I can't image that 10 warranty is for staying power on a car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ-3pVb7gpk#t=154

we're doing a lot of design, surveying, drafting ect. for interior id/ada signage (mostly large apartment, condo and office complexes), and are considering keeping the work in-house. thinking the Vision 2550, might be a good choice, and wondering what others experience or advice might be with...

I've been trying out several apps but can't seem to find just the right one to assist with sign surveys. I'd really like to take advantage of using an iPad to photograph, measure and make notations. Quite a while back someone posted about the My Measure app and that's one that works pretty well...

Here's what happens when two s101 designers can't agree on which logos to show another s101 member. soooo…. rick and i were working on teri's (signgal) logo…. i find one in the trash and insist with a few modifications it could be a front runner. rick say "i'll bet you she won't pick it."...

A client sent me a mock-up of how he wanted his business card to look, and asked for feedback on how he'd written his email address. He's British... so i told him i thought it was "bloody brilliant" ... that love it and was stealing his idea! all he had on the card was his nice clean...

Is it just me.... or does this profile pic, while not matching up with the profile... look familiar to anyone one? feels like deja vu

i fell in love on this trip... seriously... over and over! with Stacy with Teri & Stacy with Fred with Bob

Here's an email I just received, regarding a entrepreneurial group of students that I've worked with for the past 4 years. Just to clarify... i worked with them from Sept-Dec, 2-3 days a week in class and countless hours in my office. As it gets down to the wire, of the national competition...

Can any MAC users offer advice on "Kernel Tasking" ...i'm sooooo not a hardware person. I have a first generation MacBook Air and have never had a single problem with it in 4 years... until the past couple of months. This issue started after a FireFox update, but that might just be coincidental...

i'm interested in buying a used iPad 2 any model, in good condition. wi-fi only is fine. in fact top of the line with G3 is more than i can afford. if you have one for sale, shoot me a PM. thanks, gg Signs 101 classified wanted ad

When the cat's away.... the mice will play! I'm traveling with hubby this week and called my son last night to ask how things were going at home. He'd just gotten home from work and said "funny you should ask.... i think the dogs miss you." and he sends me this that would be Luna the...

I've always been interested in sandblasting, it was kinda my introduction into the sign business many (many, many) years ago. Today i was watching American Restoration and they used a DRY ICE BLASTER, but just to remove the paint from old metal. Which left me wondering if that's all it could be...

i'm not getting the usual Signs 101 Home Page anymore, with the most current active threads. i have to select a particular forum first. as of today, this is what i see on the S101 HOME page... has something changed or did i maybe inadvertently click something that change my viewing pleasure...

Tonight's Shark Tank isn't a rerun, yet there's a guy with a printer claiming to have a patent on a set-up that enables him to print directly onto shoes, like Converse and Van's, and therefore the ONLY guy doing this. But I saw what looked like the same set-up at the Long Beach NBM Show, nearly...
