    You can loosen the pinch rollers, but more often then not people that do that cause more problems than they solve. The marks should work themselves out when you apply. If not, maybe hit it with a little heat to work them out after applying.

    You have to ask permission. You cannot recreate any ones design without permission PERIOD. Actually Homeland Security, has showed up at many flea markets, convenience stores, tables at sports games etc. It is considered counterfeiting now. Go look online. These companies are fed up with the theft of their logos. People making money off their name. They will search online sites, They have lawyers on the payroll, that is all they do. It's against the law to speed also, but people do and they get caught, given enough time. Go do searches online, You will see busts and a lot of them. A few on here got caught at flea markets. And they will tell you it's not worth it!!!

    All I'm pointing out is you may end up in litigation. Not my problem if you continue to do it as long as you don't upload copyright protected work onto the forum. Just know that Monster, Disney, Harley and many of the other big names in the world pay many thousands of dollars a year to employ people who actively search out violators and then they prosecute them. Not saying you will get caught but I wouldn't recommend taking chances. I wholeheartedly suggest contacting Monster and ask them if you can run their logo. They may say you're good. I have built logo's for people who were sponsored by various companies. They almost without exception have came with instructions on size, placement and required free space around them from other logo's, color options etc... Very specific use rules.

    Most companies in the RC business will allow you to use their logos. I have gotten permission from various companies to copy and use many various logos. All it takes is an Email to them to ask if you can use them. I print out their reply and save it in my file folders as proof that they gave me permission.

    Make 2 passes, even 3 if you need to. Put the force back.

    Plasma tables are fun. A LOT more messy than a vinyl cutter, that's for sure! The reason I got the vinyl cutter was because I had customers want me to do very fine lettering or details on metal signs that the plasma cutter just couldn't do. I'm excited to make some cool stuff with it! As far as Jeeps... I've had over 30 open top Jeeps in my life, currently have 9. Mostly Willys. 1 MB 3 CJ2A 2 CJ3A 1 CJ5 1 CJ7 1TJ

    You mean art work you created? Just simply copy the SBD files from one computer to another.

    Firstly this is not a plane that is a scale of a full size plane is a stick alike. just ment for towing big rc sailplanes to about 40 kg in weight. its more workhorse than anything else. therefore this brand would fit perfectly. it is a shame that free advertisement is so wrong. there are lots of brands that has free use of logos around the world without any problem. but anyway. if you dont now. Looks like the best solution here is to ask those industries out there that has these brand logos if its okay to use on an rc plane for example.. i will definitly reconsider all my actions regarding logos. Thanks for all answers very helpfule

    Don't do either, and you don't have to worry about it. Create your own stuff, or buy designs that you have a license to use. If you see all those logo cds and stuff on Ebay. You can't use them without the "real" owners permission. Think about it, if you did not create it, it is not yours to use, without permission. If you already see it out there. It's not yours to use.

    I'm late to the show as usual, haven't been on here a lot the last few months. I'm n a bit of a disagreement of something that went dn on the forum a few months back and so guess I have lost interest. but b4 this ive had a few issues with tech support and orders, I guess nothing to major, just a pita. my best advice is ... if someone tells you they will find out something fo ryou and get back in touch, don't wait on them, stay on top of things , or more than likely it will dropped off to the wayside, then its usually too late

    Thanks for the tip fellow Jeep fan... I use Corel for my CNC plasma cutting and always convert the text to curves right after I type out and decide on a font. It makes it easier to size and edit as I'm sure you know. I've never seen this exact screen though as for my plasma cutting, I always convert to DXF. I'm assuming that by me doing it right away it's the same as checking the box correct...? EDIT: I just tried to export a DXF file like I do for plasma and a similar screen shows up. It also has the "convert text to curves" box checked. I'll just check it now in case I ever forget. Thanks again!

    I am not a Corel user but looking at your SVG export settings I see one that I would change. You should export all text as curves. I would actually recommend converting any text to curves during the design process before ever getting to the export and maybe you are already doing that. Some of those other bitmap setting are probably for thumbnail viewing the SVG or something because the SVG will not be a bitmap itself. Not familiar with the nitty gritty of Corel. I AM a Jeep fan though.

    The local shop only printed them for me. I had to pick them up and come back to my shop and press. I had the logo so there was no setup fee. I pressed all the shirts front and back.
