Not a good pic, but here's some 7-color samples (and 1 color) we ran yesterday for a customer needing them the next day for an apparel show.

These look amazing - but gotta ask, what’s the going rate on those samples with a next-day turnaround?

Here is one we printed yesterday.  I was still working out the squeegee pressure on this one but this was 8 colors including UB and HW.  By the way, There have been some fantastic prints shown lately, I just haven't had much time to visit here in the last couple of months

Separated this one for Mason at Ignite Imaging.
Separated and printed in 7 colors on black tee.  I'm showing the original as an example of really good results in just 7 colors, even with flesh tones/people on black tee.

8 Screens. 55LPI 230/40 for the whites, 280/35 for the tops. Customer's only copy was on a flat background so I had to really play with this for a while to get the background removed. Was going to send the sep out, but after removing the background i figured I might as well take a stab at it. Lots of background eraser tool.... after that used ultras seps sim process 1 and from there adjusted levels, curves etc.  It's damn close to the original so I don't think I can ask for much more! The tiny type in the sponsor logos just barely squeaked by. Had to really stay on top of the registration / tack levels or it was leaving.
