Caddy? I thought your wife was a Nissan lady..... lol
She never "recovered".Crap, no pics!
come on, I'll take the cat wear'n a box! He ever grow back his hair?
Whats the full file name?20 years ago I went into a vinyl sign shop that had a graphic artist and had him create the tornado graphic that is currently on my car. It went from concept, through several draft phases until the final was done. IIRC that work cost me 300+ dollars.
Since then, that decal has gotten stuck on 4 of the 7 I've built over those years.
( what can I say,...I love that thing)
The shop that had the artwork went out of business several years ago, and it took me awhile to find out who bought out all of that shops templates and custom stuff, but I eventually I did, and it was on this car build that the search to find it occurred.
When I had the guy print and cut the cyclone decal for the first time he didn't cut out the individual background material, and just printed the whole graphic on top of a contrasting background..I wanted the body color to show through.
He didn't like that in that it meant he had to do some intricate work and tried to talk me out of it.
That meant that he had to spend a minute " picking" the unnecessary background material out of the graphic before applying the transfer material over the top. Since finding this guy, he hasn't been exactly Johhny on the spot, and always wanted a blow and go version of the decal over what I wanted, but he has printed a few to say the least. I really didn't need anything in a rush status anyway, and since he was in possession of my 300.00 rendering, he was my only go to. When he did the current " Cyclone" version, I believe ol dude charged me 35.00 to print and cut out both sides.
Seemed like a bargain.
When I called them yesterday to order just the tornado graphics by themselves, they decided they needed to do a price adjustment, and upped the cost to 50.00.
Now that may be the going price to do this, and in the grand scheme of things wasn't that big a deal excepting that it was cheaper the last time to have more work done. Couple that to the fact that they are the only place I can go to have it done with all of these sign shops around here because they have my art work, and I have a problem with this.
I want my artwork.
After a little bit of negotiating, I manage to get it, but it's in some " Signmaker program" file type that won't let me open it.
I'll call around these next few days to see if I can transfer the file via email to some shop to give me a quote to see if the guy that had it is inline.
It'll probably end up costing me more.
Maybe ask @JoeDaddy ?

Josh McBroom, his wife Melissa, and their rather large brood of children seem to be facing catastrophe when a freak twister comes along and uproots all of the marvelous topsoil from their magical one-acre farm, but the wily and resourceful McBroom follows the twister (turned red because of all the ripe tomato plants it has ripped up, and leaving a ready tomato-flecked trail to follow) and tracks down his soil miles away. It looks like it will be impossible to cart it all back, as the struggling farmer doesn't have the money to hire all the trucks necessary, but on the way to and from the pile of topsoil the McBrooms come across a whole strange hassle of critters that have been deposited by the tornado, rare beasts that they reckon no one hither or yon has seen, and a plan is hatched to start up a zoo in the hole left by the farm, charge admission and get the topsoil back.
If it isn't the mind numbing rock you listen to Dean, it has to be the acid trip children's stories that lead me to believe that you were a participant in the 1960's US government sanctioned lsd assisted psychic testing trials.My I recommend to you is some bedtime reading, CMA.
When a tornado strips his precious topsoil and leaves behind a menagerie of extraordinary animals, Josh McBroom opens a zoo to raise the money to replace his topsoil....

Here's the second last page...
Released in 1982, IIRC, page 40 has a picture of the elusive 17THPH twister, so shy that it always managed to jump behind you or something else no matter how hard you look for it. And that's all he quote......
December 4, 1969
On this day in 1969, President Richard Nixon, Vice-President Spiro T. Agnew, and forty U.S. governors took some time out to view “simulated acid trip” films and listen to rock music in order to comprehend the generation gap.
Nothing was achieved.
At least he was serious.Wow, well said.
I think.
