  1. Looking for reproduction Chrysler engine decals for 1966 Crown Imperial

    Thanks, I'll check them out. My dad does so many random resto projects that he's always asking about the most unusual decals or graphics. I keep telling him he has a bigger network of sources than I do. Oh well. I appreciate the suggestions, I'll start my search there.
  2. Looking for reproduction Chrysler engine decals for 1966 Crown Imperial

    My dad is doing a restore of a 1966 Crown Imperial. The original engine had two foil printed decals. They're silver foil with black printing. Does anyone know of a company that does reproductions of this sort? I contacted a manufacturer rep and he didn't know of any source for the decals. He...
  3. Printed windshield sunshades

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for a source for printed windshield sunshades. Either the cardboard type or the nylon(?) twist to fold up types. Anyone have a source for this type of job? I wasn't sure if the DTS merchants here can do the nylon kinds. Thanks in advance! Matthew
  4. Crap substrate.....

    Got a call to put some vinyl lettering or Gemini letters on an existing sign face. Problem is it's a sheet of glued 1"x8" boards stacked vertically end on end and then lacquered... There's pits where each knot in the boards are and there's pre-existing holes where old additions to the sign used...
  5. Source for two-copy quote books?

    I am looking for a source for quote books (long checkbook size) with carbon or carbonless copy. I have a customer wanting on the go quote pads she can keep in her employees vehicles. My normal source doesn't offer these. Thanks, Matthew BlackIceFX
  6. What the F??!?!!?!?!?!?

    The file props are not set to read only and I do have ownership rights to the file even on the new comp. All aspects are locked, as if I had placed a bitmap into my graphic. I can't expand, live trace, etc. UPDATE: apparently after opening and closing the file about 15x, the file is now...
  7. What the F??!?!!?!?!?!?

    bump... any thoughts? I'm having the issue again... Matthew BlackIceFX
  8. Stupid google images background?

    Just go to change background picture, select editors' picks, and select white... there you go, back to white... Matthew BlackIceFX
  9. Font?

    I have to redo some graphics for a Wing Stop franchise. They don't have the digital file that they provided to the original sign shop and the logo that I've found everywhere for the company is completely different. Anyone know what logo this is? Thanks, Matthew
  10. Roland PC 600

    I was recently offered a Roland PC600 for $2k. The machine is several years old but is currently in use as a second printer/cutter. Now, I've been trying to location information for this machine but have several questions. This is a ribbon printer, so from what I understand, I can print on...
  11. Adobe destroy msg?

    don't worry, it's a legit copy. Just recently started doing that on all files when saving. The files are fine when opened again on this or any other machine. I will contact Adobe. Matthew
  12. Stika-15

    I know, I know, this isn't a 'real' cutter but I used it for years doing graphics just fine for import shops. Anyway, just recently fired it back up and reinstalled Roland CutStudio and drivers. I can cut from CutStudio just fine, however, having two issues. One, I have to keep resetting the...
  13. Adobe destroy msg?

    Ok, got my Illy issues worked out however, I recently started getting an dialog box upon exiting Illy that simply says, 'DESTROY' with a close button. When I click the close button, the program finishes closing without incident. What the heck is that? It's only doing it on my desktop. Both...
  14. What the F??!?!!?!?!?!?

    bump
  15. To premask or not to premask...Opinions please

    If lam'd, then no transfer tape, because most tapes won't allow for stretching or conforming which nulls and voids the purpose of using a conforming wrap media. Matthew BlackIceFX
  16. Fonts... ?

    Why is it that when you have a font on one comp, you can't use it on another. Some fonts come bundled in software, that I understand but I have a font on my Vista laptop that I need to recreate the file on my XP machine but I can't simply copy it over. That's really annoying... Matthew BlackIceFX
  17. What the F??!?!!?!?!?!?

    I designed some graphics in Illy on my Vista64 laptop. I send those files via e-mail to my main machine running XP32. I open the files and I can't edit the graphics in any way. They show just fine, but are locked?? I've even transferred the files from one computer to another with a sd card...
  18. Explain your avatar / name

    blackicefx = I put together a little street racing car club and we called it BlackIce. Used the name because the competition would never see us coming, just like the real black ice. When i started doing simple graphics for us inhouse, i ended up being asked to do other graphics and signs, so...
  19. AVATAR.... Have you seen it?

    Avatar was stunning visually. I saw it in the IMAX 3D. Amazing effects and amazingly comfortable leather reclining seats! :omg2: Btw, for whatever it's worth, Sherlock Holmes was excellent. Matthew
