printing a marquee

<< < (3/9) > >>

emdkay:
Also, we recommend that your images be at least 300dpi, but can print up to 720dpi. 

Speaking of which, do you have that artwork, deano7?  I didn't see it uploaded yet. 

deano7:
I haven't uploaded it yet - I don't have the artwork someone else made it for me. 

Is 720 DPI too low of resolution?  I am concerned that the last guy said it didn't look good up close.  It is a jukebox and people will be standing right up to it with the marquee literally 1 foot in front of their eyes.  I am sending it in a high resolution and the marquee is only going to be 9"X 20".  What do you think?

Ginsu Victim:
Dude, his marquees look great up close. Don't listen to that one guy. Listen to me instead. :lol

+ 1 on EmdKay.

I've supplied him with 300dpi artwork and it prints beautifully!  The gradients on my marquee are flawless.  (see attached pic).

deano7:
phew, that does look good.  

Emdkay, the artwork will either arrive tonight or on Saturday.  I am at the mercy of someone else sending the file, but I will be sure to send you an email when it is uploaded.  

Can you guys give me some advice?  Here is the artwork I've had created  (along with a pic of the juke), but the background is rather dark.  Will enough light get through to make it look good as a marquee or should I try and lighten it up a bit before I print?  Attached is a pic of the juke I built and a low res version of the artwork that I have.  

Hopefully, I'll get the high res uploaded to you soon!  BTW, where are you located Emdkay?  I am in Southern Cal, what is the tyipical timing for production and shipping?  I am having some people over 3-6-10 and wonder whether I need to apply pressure to my designer to get it to you today or if Saturday would leave enough time.  Thanks guys, I am excited to put the finishing touches on my first build!
