Printing a vinyl banner for the site...any suggestions?
About to pull the trigger on a 2.5' x 12' banner for Festival of Speed and other places where I hope to sit sadly alone hoping for other people to show up who never will...
Any suggestions for where to print quick and cheap? About $100 on Vistaprint.com, which definitely ain't bad.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Printing a vinyl banner for the site...any suggestions?
I used a company off ebay last summer when I did an "Ask a Lawyer" booth for a fair. I tried to use our local FastSigns store as I use them for several other sign projects, but their quote was more than 5 times higher than the ebay store. It does take about 10 days for turnaround on the ebay stores, though, so if your event is within 2 weeks, I'd go elsewhere.

BTW, in all seriousness, it helps to have an attractive young lady in your booth with you. Not saying you need a hot chick in a bikini. Just that having an approachable, appropriately dressed, attractive young woman will help your booth visits.

Yeah, booth babes have always been a fantastic resource. It's sexist and pathetic - but known true.
I picked up a 12x2 foot banner from Printrunner.com for $70. 2-day shipping. For an instant gratification shopper, it's a great time to be alive.

Plus, it helps the scary old guy in the booth look a lot less pathetic.

Should I take down the "NO FAT KIDS" sign? I think that might be off-putting to some parents with chunky progeny...but they always smell like salami.

Are you suggesting that a pudgy middle aged guy that many would bet lives in a basement wouldn't be a good booth magnet?FRUNKenstein wrote: ↑Tue Feb 26, 2019 10:59 am BTW, in all seriousness, it helps to have an attractive young lady in your booth with you.

Another good idea is to swing by Arizona and grab one of those free Russian grills and make some dogs in the booth.

I already "borrowed" 3 grills, a Tiptronic, and his new security cameras - er, some security cameras.
This sweet, sweet banner - designed in Word, post-processed in Acrobat, clearly a top-notch production - will soon be mine.

I mean, the hypothetical guy does not live in a basement!
