At the Puyallup Model Expo, there was a commercial booth of a small company that sells vinyl graphics OR vinyl graphic MASKS, your choice. Their website shows BUNCHES of splashy graphics that will at least help you find something a bit different than the usual swoop across the center section and down the LE. The samples are in black & white, but with the use of a color wheel, you can put together a very kewl paint job without a lot of brain strain. I have been able to copy individual samples but have not figured out why it won't print. I suspect I need a newer version of AcroReader. Go to: www.rockinrose.com/index.htm Steve

Edit/Afterthought: It would be kewl if those of you who know of a sign/vinyl/graphics website would be so kind to post it, with Leonard's permission.

Ive been really spoiled by graphics, and having a friend in the business is not any help either. Once you use them you become spoiled to paint. mine are done on .002 mil and with any topcoat blend in beautifully. even by themselves bare on the wing they will last at least 5/7 yrs since they are printed on outdoor vinyl. some that I've had done were an enlarged Super Ringmaster decal. Wowee reproductions,custom Twister logos, custom GG Stork emblems, nice Firecat logos,and lots that I've not mentioned. Maybe Currell will be a convert to them once he uses his on his Wowee
Oh I hope that Leonard won't mind if I mention that I get them made at 21st Century Graphics which is owned by a modeller and will accomodate you and your special needs without making you take out aloan to buy them. His web site should be up in a week and if there is any interest I'll post it here. Thanks Dennis
I'm going to post the owner and his phone number, If I'm out of line then it will be deleated
21st century Graphics owner is Ray Clapper phone is 1 610 286 2858 you'll find that he is fair and reasonably fast. Dennis

I have tried this link and cannot connect. Does anyone know if there is a problem with it?

I copied and pasted the URL, and for some strange reason, what actually got pasted into the location bar was the company name.
But I got that squared away and after a couple of tries, got it to load and bookmarked it. Unfortunately, I have to leave ASAP for a meeting, but fortunately, "I'll be Back" (and will then check out the website for neat ideas). I have hopes that others will add other graphics web sources for us to patronize and/or plagerize! Steve
