    Most of my customers are my friends and they are understanding that im new at this so they arent really fussing about anything. THEY pay for there own vinyl and they understand that if the design doesnt come out the way they like they know and understand that we are new at this. i rarely have a graphics shop around me they are 30 to 60 miles away and im not driving that far just for a couple of decals so i thought this would be a interesting way to get started. The guy that use to do all of are stuff only does contracts now with schools and big orders, i understand that he does this because he knows that he will get his money so he will not be wasting vinyl on others. Me i always paid in advance because i know his product is awesome, hes the one that gave me my first cutter but i didnt have a driver to run it. i would like to make a couple designs and let some of these pros see how they can come up with a final product, i would like to learn as much as possible but im more of a hands on person just like fishing for others( if you give fish they wont learn anything if you teach then how to fish they learn for life. most likely for shirts and stuff im going to do a design and sub them out until i get everything i need in and mess up a couple times before i say i can do this the right way. but id like to say thanks you for your words of wisdom.

    i am new so please excuse me. i mean everyone has there mistakes and stuff. im just trying to get everything going so i can "be like you". Not trying to be rude but at one point in time you were a beginner at this, so if i have offended you then im sorry ive switched to flexi. I know it seems like im asking alot of questions and its because "I'M NEW" at this and need to learn some things from the pros that do this everyday. By chance if i do sub this work out that im trying to do then there is no benefit for me in the long run. im trying to start this because the guy that did all my work for me shutdown shop because the owner of the building wanted too turn it into something else. i have learned alot from the people who post on my topics. so please if i offend you autzenoise then by goodness dont read my post just ignore them ashcomputers, rodger, bearlyrich and a bunch more know what they are talking about and are willing to help me/others and when i get better at this you best believe ill throw some big projects there way that my cutter cant handle. we are all in this for the same reason wheather it be a hobby, or a full or part time job, for me its part time because my hours have been cut by one of the major companies of the USA, and around the world so before you cut someones throat for asking questions and wondering about how things work and go around then help someone out instead of posting things like you did and so by that if i offended ANYONE in this post then please feel free to PM me and we can get things on a good note.

    P.S THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED ME IN GETTING STARTED I APRECIATE IT VERY MUCH!!!

    i was wondering im hearing about all this people getting in a dispute and stuff about cutting companies logo say for example ford, chevy, fox racing, etc so my ?s are say if you cut these can you get sued? for this act im thinking a yes but i have a couple people that want me to cut these logos but im in a bind with it wheather to do this or not im new at this so its wierd to be asking the guy that use to do my graphics before he shut shop down (because rent was to high) and now he does it out of his house aka rentfree lol so how would i go about cutting these graphics etc?
