Any help would be very much appreciated. I want to create auto decals (sayings/graphics} to sell at weekend markets. Any recommendations on the vinyl cutter/software I should purchase? Also where to purchase plotter clip art/grahics on CD rom? Know of any sites that could help me?{except this one of course!} Thanx BJ.... BJBJBJBJ@bigpond.com

I have kind of branched out a little in that direction & I would say that you should beware of clip art because the right to use them oftem does not include products that are little more then "their" image sold for profit. Cutting, weeding, & taping doesn't necessarily make it your own product & although I have sold many auto decals that were just clip art, I fear that there is no future in growing the sticker business unless I create my very own line of designs. Even paying another designer is an option if that is not your area of expertise. Or like in my case I am working over 50 or 60 hours a week, & I can find time to cut a bunch of hawaiian flowers, or tribal looking sea creatures etc. & my girlfriend can weed them & make $200-300 bucks at the swap meet, but to make a real business of it, perhaps on the internet, I would need more time then I have to give it.
As for the clip art or plotter/software questions, do a search on this site for endless amounts of posts done previously.
