    Very simple request

    I'll be generous and walk you thru it. Way too easy download www.inkscape.org Vectorising in Inkscape SolutionThis walk through explains the basics of vectorising in Inkscape. Step 1) Import your image. Click File>Import, find your file and click OK. Step 2) Select the image, go to the top of the screen, click Path>Trace Bitmap. Step 3) The Trace Bitmap menu will then open. Here you can select how you want your image vectorised and adjust the settings. You can also generate a preview. Once you are happy with the preview click OK and close the Trace Bitmap screen. Step 4) Now you will have your new vector image and the old raster (bitmap, jpeg, gif etc) image stacked on top of each other. Seperate the two and delete the raster. Step 5) Play around with your new vector image!

    Taping Idiot (newbie) needs help!

    what kind of tape are you using? clear or paper?, Paper is the easiest to use. and make rolling up large projects smooth. If using clear, on smaller decals, I lay the clear tape on the table with the adhesive UP. Put a little something on the corners for weight, then I kinda slowly start at the beginning of the tape, and beginning of decal, and slowly apply the decal to the tape. Don't just lay it on the tape flat, you'll get alot of bubbles. Smooth your decal with one hand while holding the decal with the other hand until it's all on the tape.. Then squeeggee it real good when your done. works for me. For paper, people us an applicator like mr300s said and the big squeeggee, I'm sure you can find some videos on you tube, also.

    Buyer Beware: jeremySI

    I print everything from Paypal, and actually, when you print First Class, you are FORCED to pay the delivery confirmation of 19c . You cannot delete it. It is automatically added to the fee. Priority is FREE.

    Buyer Beware: jeremySI

    just went thru this on a package, a couple of weeks ago. that was in a 6" x 9" manilla envelope, it weighed 2 oz. and I paid $1.58 which included delivery confirmation. It was not even 3/4" The customers mail carrier told them, then had to pay $4.23 to get this package. I have been shipping these for years, and other thin parcels. with no problems with printed delivery confirmations. . I contacted my postmaster who contacted the postmaster there., and they tried to use that rule. That rule no longer exists and hasn't for quite some time. My post master contacted the regional office and that is what they said. It does not have to be 3/4" The customer got refunded. And I still continue to ship as usual with no problems. THat was my first and only problem like that in over 4 years. look on the USPS website. can be used on these. Delivery Confirmation may be used with the following services: First-Class Mail

    It is a usable vector file. I thought you could import .ai files into Signcut. That is what you are showing in your signiture as your cutting software. What else do you want?

    vector is the wireframe. That is what you cut. should be on top after vectorizing your image. just slide it over and delete the bottom image.
