  1. I've built shopping carts using osCommerce and it was easy to setup. The really tricky, and time consuming part is customizing it to make it look unique and professional. Then all you have to do is add products and setup the payment modules. You can use paypal, money orders, or a variety of online merchant accounts. I've had one client who had two merchants fighting each other and he ended up only having to pay a certain percentage of whatever he sold. so they waved the monthly fees, etc. Doing something like this does take some programming knowledge, though. And I highly doubt you'll find someone to get you up and running for $100. I know people will set the scripts up and get you running for around that price but to customize the cart's look & layout will probably be more. So I'd suggest finding one you like, and dive into the documentation. And then find somebody to help you out. You can find hosting for very low prices now days. Another thing you'll need is a SSL Certificate or else no one will purchase from you. those run and additional $30-whatever a year. It's funny how so many people think that developing websites is so easy. Sure anyone can learn basic html and have a cookie cutter website up within hours but when it comes to stuff like this you'll either spend a significant amount of time learning it yourself, or you'll shell out the cash to have someone else save you the headache and produce a professionally functional website for you.. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.
  2. There is but it's almost not even worth it. the time it takes to figure out all the variable names, replacing/skinning graphics and deciphering the code, you could create your own from scratch using theirs as a reference. You'll need a swf decompiler in order to even do that. Takes quite a bit of actionscript to code something like that. And then to integrate it with your website you need to pass all the information to a PHP script or in their case a ASP script, to handle the pricing/checkout process. That's why you hear of people paying thousands for that sort of a feature. I'm currently working on something similar but it's a sloow process.
  3. I noticed whenever I sprayed the app tape and let it sit for a few mins the app tape would come off fine but it'd leave behind some, if not all of the adhesive. But if I sprayed the tape and removed it within a several seconds it did just fine. Does anyone else have this problem? It sucks having to remove all of the adhesive from the vinyl. I believe the tape I'm using is called perfect tear from sign warehouse and I use rapidtac.

    Reg marks & clear tape

    Awesome, I'm new and like to do my apps wet so this is a great solution. Thank you.
  5. I'm new at this and I did a 3 layer, 2 layer, and a single on a bobcat and a mini excavator at 17F. I only used rapidtac 1 and its been holding up strong for a couple months now. I did notice with clear app tape the signs tweaked when they were exposed to the cold. But it was nice because the clear was easy to pull off so I could apply paper app to the layered signs for wet application. If that makes any sense. I'm still a n00b and going through trial an error.

    Help finding this font

    I've looked everywhere, even at "what the font" and cannot seem to find it. If anyone knows what it is called, where to get it, etc I'd most definitely appreciate it. Thanks
