User m...needs to save it in a low version eps file. Then you should be able to open it

This looks similar. The only difference is that this image seems to be metal. The one I saw was acrylic or a pvc material.

Dakota...The sublimation flippies are so cute too. I think you might be on to something

ooooo...jfought...thanks. I would love to know your contact, I don't know anyone in the Upstate of SC that does laser cutting. I really appreciate all of your input. I think those things are sooo cute, and they would love them here in SC.

Maybe they are acrylic. At least that what it sounds like. So, they are hot in FLA? Any idea where they come from?

I don't know if they were pvc...but that's what it looked like. The polka dots were sublimation, but the monogram was a vinyl decal. The substrate itself looked about 1/4 to 1/2 inch. Any ideas? The car it was on was park in front of my shop. When I went back out with a camera, it was gone..oh well.

I saw the cutest car tag the other day. It was what looked like a routed flip flop with vinyl cutouts decorating it. I immediately went online looking for what looked like a pvc cutout. I am unable to find anything at all. I am hoping one of you vinyl guru's might know where I could put my hands on some of these gems. Any help is greatly appreciated....as always. The Hag

Welcome from South Carolina

Hi from South Carolina. I bought my laserpoint in Feb 09. I mainly do the same thing as you...wall decals, stick people, banners ..small detailed stuff... I have loved my laserpoint! I am a graphic designer by profession, so, I had some background with different types of software. I had very few problems! My only issue was a cord connection that, with the help of this great forum, I was able to correct. I design everything in Illustrator and copy it to SignBlazer. I guess Signblazer has gone through some issues, because, I still use it as a full trial version...that makes me a little uncomfortable. But hey, it works. I wish that didn't have to use it, but it's what I chose when I purchased my cutter. If you have the $$$, I would invest in FlexiSign. It seems to be a pretty well rounded professional cutting program. Oh..one more thing....Someone suggested getting a 60 degree blade. I did..and wow! Big difference for me with the details. Good luck and take that plunge!

Did you get your problems solved? If not, I can expand it in Illustrator for you...let me know.

Are you making your resolution 300dpi? It all takes practice. Great ideas are wonderful, but if you aren't great with the software....its tough.

Thanks for the heads up everyone. I myself am putting a lock on my artwork....lol

I can't see Billy's posts either :-

Thanks so much...I just ordered some 60 blades...As usual, yall were a big help.

Just a reply to all of you who helped me. I used some matte finish spray..and guess what? The vinyl stuck like a charm. Thankyou
