    Or...do you have a shitload of disposable income so you can do whatever the fuck you want to anyways and just hire people who know what they're doing?

    Cause you sure as shit aren't going to make any money.

    I like to print most of my stuff for quality control...but when i do outsource I use printers that I know do a great job, the Half and Half and Delicious Design League are two I have used. Basically do whatever is gonna suit you best. But yeah I end up making more money printing myself...

    Print myself? It sounds so... declassé.

    And in the end...the love you take, is equal to the love you make.

    We print our own stuff and a good number of other artists/designers.

    I like it. I get to see what other people are trying hands on everyday, and push my own ideas to new levels and get paid at the same time.

    So who is this numbers band Justin, and am I going to get a crack at it?

    The Goodtimes is correct.

    Richie is getting paid tho. How else could he afford those awesome Machine Wash filters he likes so well! I smell a sugar daddy.

    If you stick it out, you'll be upgrading your equipment constantly. We started with 2 jiffy clamps and spray mount on a countertop. 2.5 years later we're running our 2nd semi auto.

    Don't worry about your initial investment. We started with 900 bucks, no credit cards, and no sugar daddies.
