  1. You can see it in Signblazer?  I can see the image in every other program except for signblazer.  It's visible as a PDF, EPS, AI etc.

    As soon as I import it into Signblazer, there are pieces missing.


  2. I'm importing this image with Signblazer as and EPS that was originally created in Adobe Illustrator and it won't import the entire image.  It cuts off the top half of the guys head.  Any ideas why it looks fine as a PDF, AI, and EPS, but won't import all of the lines?  I tried to node edit to see if there something else going on and it only let me edit the mouth. 

    I think the customer grouped or locked something to cause this, but  I don't have AI to check.  Any ideas how I can get this image ready to cut.

  3. I tried this with Inkscape and Signblazer.  I really just want to seperate the letters and the crosshairs so I can cut this in two or three colors.  One for the MBP, one for the crosshairs, and maybe another for Militia.  This is the only picture I was given and they didn't have anything better.

  4. I'm working on a website template and I can't figure out how to line something up.  Anyone have experience with HTML and willing to look at my code to see if there is an easy fix for my problem.  I'll PM the source code to anyone that can help me out.  I know this isn't a website development forum, but I know there are a lot of tech savy guys out there.  Thanks a bunch.


  5. I buy 50 yard rolls for the basic colors.  Red, black, white, blue.  10 yard rolls for everything else, unless I have a big job where I know I'm going to use most of the 50 yard roll. 

    Funny thing about Teal.  I bought a roll for a small job and suddenly needed it for another job.  John is right, when they know you have the color they want you'll usually sell it.


  6. A lot of folks on here have had great experiences with US Cutters.  PCUT or Refine would probably work fine for what you need.  Both sold on www.uscutter.com or you can try your luck on ebay.  For starters you'll need a cutter, vinyl, xacto knife, plastic squeegee, and transfer tape.  You can buy vinyl and transfer tape from USCutter.  There are a number of sites that you can buy sign materials from.  Some require that you have a sign business and some do not.
