Title: Gravity Destinations

My vote for the new sub-line. One color. Requests for icons flooding in. It's nice to see a project through and have it take off. Doesn't always go that way

From the title I was figuring you had a line of T's for Whistler, Moab, Fruita, etc. 
Didn't take you for a DH shredder....  ;)

Tony, will you guys take any contract orders for this?  If so could you PM me the particulars?  We get a request for this stuff once or twice every other month. 

Thanks
Chris

How great is this? Just one color and you get that much quality out if it.

Soft hand.
Great image detail.
Bright whites.
1 color.
Provides a great price point with plenty of room for profit.

Marvelous!  That's just every printers dream business.

Thanks Dan. Introduced it at Surf and it took off. Suddenly all sorts of new customers. Zoos and Aquariums requesting all sorts of Icons. It's growing faster than I've ever seen. BTW the halftone is 35 DPI!

The company that I'm buying out is 100% into the resort market and they have offered all over prints very similar to this for a while now. Glad to see it's taking off for you guys as I've seen it dying for them....... Almost the same type of stuff as this but Tony's sales team must be badass!

Great print though, these types of prints is where the money is at! Nice Tony, I'd be proud to get something going that takes off like this

Shame on you. You should do 55 just to keep it in the high end category. :)

I can see it tho, on very large photo images like this. Holds well and you get a lot of detail out of the size.
Imagine that at 8" across at 35 lpi.

Officially shamed! But since these are manual prints on a rig I built we are not going to there  ;). You'd be surprised what you can pull off with 35DPI. Also its kind of cool
