Just to say Hello
Hi from Johnalphasign
Just joined the site 😀
Its great to be able to pool together and swap ideas and tips
Its seems for the most of us we have had to learn things as we go along.About three years ago I made the transition from traditional signwriting to vinyl. Of course you don’t receive training either in computer software or in preparation of vinyl itself.
Its a question of figuring it out yourself! Mind you its been a great learning curve.
The confidence is certainly growing although there are quite a few areas of apprehension such as large digital vehicle graphics and one way glass film.
If anyone has tips and recommendations on these it would be great to hear from you.
Still enjoy traditional signwriting whenever the customer absolutely insists
regards
John

Welcome John,
I think the internet has made the world a much smaller place, and brought so many great groups of people together. I am really happy with the signpeople I have got to know in the US since the mid-nineties, and now finding people from both traditional, and computer backgrounds in the UK, this is a site that is growing and has a great bunch of folks participating.
