Anyone recognize this???
« on: March 11, 2002, 05:48:56 am »
Anyone recognize this marquee (the one on the left)?  I used it on one of the cabinets I built and need to make another, but I've lost the file.  Does anyone know where I can get it again?


Thanks,
-CyberPunk

That's exactly what I'm looking for.
Let me know your method of printing as I will be doing my first.

Thanks

Quick note.  Love your cabinet design!  Looks Great and love the 2 tone color scheme for the sides.

(I just had a chunk of paint come off the front of my cabinet... I wish I build one instead of buying an originial.  kinda sucks that I put so much work into it and it still looks old (and hacked... but the hacked part is because of lack of funds and time to get my bezel)

GREAT JOB!

That's it !!! Thanx.  I'm going to try to print it up on my ink jet with banner paper.  If that doesn't work, I'll do what I did last time....send it to Kinko's.

BTW, speaking of banner paper, Canon makes this stuff called Back Print Film for bubble jet printers.  It's great stuff--actually made to be backlit.  It's like a transparency film that has a special coating on the back that makes it translucent, so you won't actually see thru it, but it gets illuminated from behind.  Don't know how big you can get it though...

I've only seen canon's back print paper in 8.5x11 or 11x17 sheets. You can find it online directly through canon's e-store:

We go to our local print shop and have them print the marquees on backlit film which is probably similar to what you are describing. They turn our great. We then sandwich them between two pieces of plexiglass with a florescent light mounted behind it (of course).

I use Epson Panoramic Photo Paper part No. S041145 It is 8.3" * 23.4" and is great for Marquess and CPOs. I got it at CompUSA it's kind of expensive though. about $17- $20 for 10 sheets, but I'm sure it's cheaper than outputing one sheet at Kinko'$
