First time poster here, but I have been lurking for a while.
I have nearly completed an awesome 4-player cabinet, but I have run into one obstacle today.
Yesterday my wife and I spent nearly a whole day learning paintshop pro and creating my marquee and control panel. We created a pretty awesome Superman versus Hulk layout on both. I titled my cabinet, "Supermame". Of course, I used the superman style lettering for it with him and the Hulk ever present throughout the design.
Well ... I brought the files on CD to Kinkos to have them print it ... everything SEEMED fine and they would have it ready in a day. Well, I got a call this morning from the branch manager saying he could not print it since I didn't have a written release to use Superman or his likeness ... blah blah blah ... GRRRRR
Sooooo ... I'm wondering if my wife and I wasted our whole day for nothing. How did the rest of you go about doing oversize printing? Are most printers gonna say the same thing?
My images are 27" X 8.5" (Marquee) and 48" by 20" (Control Panel). Any recommendations, advice, etc. would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm just irked because I know if that manager had not just stumbled upon the job it woulda been done anyway and I would now have my artwork ready to put into my panel so I can continue building my cabinet.
Thanks in advance!
