• Hi everyone!

    Posted by amyd on November 27, 2003 at 10:10 pm

    Just thought I’d say Hi an introduce myself. I’ve actually been lurkin around for a while. This site is really great, have found loads of info already, even though I’m not a signmaker! Everyone seems really helpfull, I will try and help where I can but am pretty new to this stuff.

    This is my plan…I’m trying to start up a small online business selling t-shirts with my designs on. Am still in the very early stages (not even got a name yet!), havn’t got any equipment yet but think I’m going to invest in either a Graphtec Plotter or a Roland one (with the magic eye function). Going to Xpres (which I found on this site) tomorrow for a demo! ..So if anyone has any views on these then would be glad to hear..also need a heat press – 2nd hand hopefully..I wasn’t quick enough to buy the one that was goin on her the other day..damn! So if anyone has one spare let me know – but will post a topic in the proper section.

    Anyway, hope to speak to you all again soon!

    Amy

    Hi Amy,

    Glad you stick your neck out and said hello – now stick it out some more and follow your dream! 😉

    Good luck with your demo – it’s not my filed so I can’t advise – but make sure you do your homework before spending any of that hard earned cash and ask as many questions as you like…

    more soon

    Hi Amy,
    Good luck with the new venture. This business is tough to break into ( over here at least) but so worth it. I’ve never had so much fun at my work.

    You’ve done the right thing joining up here, welcome.
