Common Questions?
Can I order a custom size banner?
You can, choose the most next size up and list in the product comment section what size you want the banner cut down to.
How long will this street banner last?
These banners are made of durable, long lasting 18oz vinyl can last an average of 1-2 years with proper care. If the banner is placed in a spot where it tends to get fairly windy the banner could wear and tear quicker than normal.
Are the banners weather proof?
Yes, these durable double sided banners are water and weather proof. They are built to withstand moderate weather conditions. We recommend taking down the banners during extreme weather conditions as it could cause property damage in the event it become loose from where it's hanging. The banners should last an average of 1-2 years when used in moderate weather conditions.
How many colors or details can I use in my artwork, will it cost extra?
You can use any number of colors or any amount of detail in your artwork without incurring any additional fees. We print our fabric with dye sublimation technology in full color and no matter how many colors or how detailed the artwork is, it won't affect the cost of the sign.
What color profile should I use in my artwork?
We accept CMYK, RGB, Mixed colors and Pantone colors. We use a 4-color process, and each color profile will be converted to meet the original coloring as closely as possible.

I don't have a print ready file or software to set up artwork, how can I get artwork set up?
Unfortunately, we don't offer artwork set up in house. Good websites to find graphic designers are fiverr.com or 99designs.com. If you are not able to find a designer please contact us and we can refer you to freelance designers we work with often.
I realized I sent the wrong file when I received the proof, what do I do?
No worries, this is why we send proofs! If you realized something is wrong in your artwork or sent the wrong file, simply respond to the graphics proof email, and let them know if you are sending a new file or have changes to your design online artwork. Our graphics team will always send you updated proofs, and nothing goes to print without your approval.
I approved of the proof then realized it was wrong, what do I do?
We work fast over here, once the proof is approved it moves to production quickly. If you realize the proof was wrong after approving contact us as soon as possible. We can try to holt production if your order has not started to print yet. Once it starts printing it will be hard to pull it back at that point so the sooner you can let us know the better chances, we have to stop it.
