    Mumpower is just good honest reseller - nothing flashy and if you want more info just a call away - like john said if you want a pretty site fellers puts way more money into marketing than giving you the best price for great products. if you have a good following from years of great service some don't see a need to put all that money into marketing. kinda like I sell more on word of mouth than advertising . . .

    I have had no experience with this company in particular, I use JPS or Conde and that's it. Just be weary of switching vendors you don't know anything about. Some vendors use the cheaper mugs with low quality coatings. A good idea with the mugs is to buy a sample mug, press an image with lots of color, and run it through the dishwasher 10-20 times. I thought about switching vendors last month, got a few sample products and used them for myself to test their durability. Cheap usually means lower quality. The phone cases, the coating chipped off along with the image, the mugs images ran like an inkjet image on a wet piece of paper, and the coasters warped even after putting weights on them out of the press so they would cool down flat. Test before you offer a product for sale.

    "Pro" needs to be taken off SCALP and added to SB, IMO.

    Yes! Maybe that's why I'm partial to the Rapid Tac. It's a cleaner, application fluid, and an air freshener lol.

    Conde offers glow-in-the-dark tiles - I've bought a couple but never did anything with them. They have a distinct greenish tint to them that is going to affect the color of whatever I add to them. I had originally intended to put some sort of bedtime prayer on them and adding an easel to use as a "nightlight" that fades after the kid goes to sleep, but never got around to trying it out...

    See if your printer settings dialog has a black & white/greyscale option And try that... Is the red tint showing up in the printed image or after you press it?

    Illustrator is just a design program. There are plug-ins from several cutting programs that will allow you to cut FROM illustrator but they are basically a shortcut to the actual cutting software. If you can design in Illy then you can just use SCALP as a cutting tool and it isn't completely worthless in that regard. There are several other cutting options. Flexi, SignCut (what I use) Signblazer, old but still handy if you have an older computer to run it.

    Several points to cover in this topic -- 1. The USCUTTER support download link above (mb20music kindly provided) is indeed the best way to get the SBE program that runs without Registration and Trial nags. 2. If you do decide to buy a new cutter (such as the TitanII servo motor) it will run using SignBlazer with a Copam Cp2500 driver. http://forum.uscutter.com/index.php?/topic/44961-signblazer-and-titen-2/#entry360608 3. The SBE Library of cuttable graphics (in the Draw menu) is probably the feature that many overlook, but it's always providing me with some item or another (it even has a barber pole; and a pig; and a skull & crossbones; and praying hands; etc. etc. etc.) 4. At the mall, you can expand your business with SBE by offering funny road signs -- yes, the Library has many of the standard templates for road signs, and you can add clever phrases and make them humorous. Try doing it, you'll see what I mean!!!

    You're certainly welcome. Maybe the admins. could pin this thread at the top, so anyone buying a TITAN can easily find out the answer of how to install and utilize SignBlazerElements to run it. http://support.uscutter.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/GetAttachment/190/24198

    Material + Labor + Cost of doing business + Profit = Selling Price. If you feel a need to discount it can only come out of the profit side. Wait I am sorry I made a mistake he is a Democrat. You are a business owner. That means you are RICH. Do all the signs for free give him a 50.00 donation Sorry could not help myself David

    I have seen a lot of business emails that did not work or was parked. I would not put a lot into an email address at all. I have seen a lot of people with really impressive websites and of course a business email account that could not find their butt with a map and flashlight. I use gmail it is easy to access on the go with notifications on my droid and my pad. If it looks unprofessional I must be doing something wrong because I stay busy constantly.
