Where's the best place to get a full-color vinyl banner printed with my digital artwork? I'm thinking 3'x5'. I want it to be gorgeous and affordable. Recommendations?

There's a company called Fast Signs that does a lot of that. Just go to Google Maps and type in Fast Signs and your zip code and you'll find a bunch near you.

you probably have a fast signs near you - they're usually good. we have a great local company that works nationally - Beautiful Displays that does great work.

Kinkos actually does large format graphics.

Here is one in Burbank

There are actually a ton of sign companies in the valley, check the the yellow pages.

I know if you want something special you'll have to come up with a design yourself. Otherwise you'll get the standard bill of fare.

It's for a pal who's on a tight budget and I was wondering if anyone had direct experience with any of the low-cost places that you can upload your graphics to (I'm designing the banner). I'm leaning toward VistaPrint, but Empire Banners looks good, too-- about $40 for a 3'x5'.

(Dontcha hate it when someone wants top quality at bargain basement prices? I was thinking of just uploading my artwork to www.banners123.com and having people bid on it.)

I see a whole series of Kafer cartoons coming.

NASCAR driver: it's just driving a car; how hard could it be?
Air Traffic Controller: it's just telling people where to go; how hard could it be?

Have you used these guys, Bob? With full-color digital output? They look great, and the price is sure right!
