Its Great to Give Photo Credits!


I came across an image the other day in Google Images that had been picked off one of the Flickr accounts I contribute to. Its great to see someone (RoundPegg.com) actually using Flickr and crediting the original creator. This is also a great, creative use of the an image not originally created for the purpose of an article.

Can't go to Print 09 but don't want to miss anything?

Gordon Pritchard of the Quality in Print blog ( http://qualityinprint.blogspot.com/ ) has generously offered to check out any booths or vendors at September's Print 09 in Chicago. Luckily I live in Chicago and will be attending, but I liked the idea.

Summa Cutters - Unique Applications Photo Contest


Summa ( www.summausa.com) is having a contest for unique projects you have done with a Summa Cutter. More info at: Summa Photo Contest - http://www.summausa.com/contest/


Summa cutters have many applications, from making custom stickers to making your own fathead like removable wall graphic. These are great complimentary machines to printers like the Epson GS6000 solvent printer that do not have any built in cutter or blade. They can also replace expensive die cut applications (there is no need to make a custom die for each shape, which can save thousands of dollars).

I will be excited to see what people have been doing with these amazing automated cutting machines.
