  1. if you are using signblazer, I think the vectorized one is blue.  You can tell by selecting it and clicking on node edit.  The bitmap image won't allow you to node edit.  Delete the bitmap.

    Personally I've found inkscape to yield better results with vectorizing.  Signblazer works well on the simple stuff.


  2. Download a program called Inkscape.  It's free. :huh:

    Then read this: http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php/topic,8390.0.html  These instructions are better than anything I could explain.

    Your logo was pretty easy compared to some stuff I've received from customers.  Most of the time you can convert it using Inkscape.  Others use graphics programs like Photoshop or Illustrator.

    Signblazer also has vectorizing abilities.  Select your image, Click on "Image", then "Mode" and convert your gif, jpg, bmp to Monocrome.  Then click on vectorize.  You'll need to delete the original when you are done. 


  3. Although not as impressive, here is a magnet I did for their front door.  I think it was 32"wide by 24" tall.

    It was a perfect solution for them because they were not permitted to permanently put vinyl on the door.

  4. I actually did 4 of these for free for a relative.  Told them I would donate them if I could advertise.  Normally I would not advertise on someone else's sign.  However, given the opportunity for free advertising I would probably give a discount for a small logo.  Especially on vehicles.
