There's even a special Sign Gallery that
features more than 500 full-color photos of
finished signage, offering apprentice and
veteran sign makers alike a wealth of new
creative ideas. You can search based on sign
type or decorative feature, then enlarge for
detailed viewing. Users can access a Fact Sheet
that describes how the sign was made, what
materials and finishing touches were used, and
gives estimated market pricing. The Sign Gallery
also serves as an effective sales tool to
promote the capabilities of your shop to
potential customers. The CD-ROM will function in
either a Macintosh or Windows 95 operating
system. |
