Hi from Montreal!
« on: August 16, 2012, 10:38:38 AM »
Hi all!
new to the forum and wanted to introduce myself.
I've been working in this industry for over 20years now and have been specializing in color separations.

Hi Pixel Pimp!


I think we've spoke/posted to each other in other forums before over the years.
Welcome!


Ah,  separations.  I dying business with all of the "Do it yourself" buttons being developed. I'm going to have to start doing art again or selling more shirts to make a living.


At any rate,  glad to have you aboard.


Thanks

Thanks for the welcome DK!

Hi Dan! yes we've chatted a few times on another forum, your posts have always been helpful and informative (good humor too ;])

i know what you mean by a dying business but the advanced color separations are more of an art then a science. until they create a HAL9000 that understands aesthetics, i think you'll still be in business for a long while. :D

welcome aboard Sean!

'careful with HAL though, I hear he is pretty vindictive. You never know what colors he might mix up for you!

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!

As one of the official Three Stooges, I better step up and say howdy as well.
A little late because I've actually been busier than the SF Giants' publicist today!
