Who makes the clings for our events? I have an idea that I want to do with my rear drivers side window, but it would require ALOT of custom clings. Just wondering who we have make the clings for the events. (Like, not the artwork itself, but the actual printing)

Speaking of clings, it'd be really cool if all of them were scanned and added to a gallery, perhaps on the DCMM site. I feel a bit rude to suggest this but not offer to actually do it. I'm just so busy with school stuff lately... Are original images already available that would save us from having to scan?

For a one-off project, try with any of the graphics people like Mike at Aesthic Creations or try your local sign shop.

Don't feel rude. Cuz, whoever said it, volunteered for it!!

It really would be cool to do that, but the original images are scattered throughout may people in the club, past and present. It may be doable though!

Hmm...

Jen,

How many clings do ya got? If I remember right, you probably have the most complete collection. If so, we could meet up when you have time, I could bring my laptop & scanner, and I could scan what you have, if you wouldn't mind. I have a bunch myself, so with both collections, we might be able to have about 80% or so!

In the past though we got the clings from the Kinko's up in Frederick. They were the only ones in the area who knew what we wanted and were able to produce it for us. In theory there's probably other Kinko's in the area who should be able to do the job, however the other stores just didn't seem to understand just what it was that we wanted.

For what you want, Kinko's won't work for you. They will require a minimum order per design of whatever it is your looking to order and will not do ones and twos of an individual design.

Aesthetic creations or some other similar shop would be a better option for you...

BTW, my B&B III cling disappeared... Hey Paul do you have an extra laying around somewhere?

Paul, somewhere I have the cling files. I think. Of course, the almost complete collection is on Isabelle too. I also have a cling that I still owe a few people.......but this seems to be the file I have lost!

At the moment we have a great guy doing our clings for the club very cheaply, but I do not want to give out his name and information, as he does this as a favor to a friend in DCMM and probablly does not want to be doing it full time.

Possibly. I'll have to look around.

Strangely enough though, I have a couple of clings from B&B IV... which I didn't attend since I was 1,000 miles away in Florida!
