![]() I’ll go into cutting by Fill and you can see it’s now on cut, but the only cut line is the outer rectangle. ![]() I have it selected, and you can see it’s set to No Cut. I mean, why would you bring it in to Silhouette Studio to print when you could just straight out print it elsewhere? Here’s what a raster image looks like in Simple cut mode. That’s because the only thing that would cut would be the outer rectangular edge, which is not typically what we want. ![]() When you open one in Silhouette Studio, there are no cut lines turned on (unless you’re cutting by fill). Around that, all the rest of the squares in the grid are filled with white (jpgs) or are transparent (pngs). What you have is a grid with squares of red, green and brown. Because the squares are so tiny, you don’t realize that they are actually squares unless you zoom in really, REALLY far or make the image very large. You could make pictures by filling each square individually with color. Think back to the old Paint programs (if you’re as old as I am). Common raster image types are jpg, png, bmp, gif and wmf. They are made up of many tiny squares, called pixels, that are filled with a variety of colors in rows and columns. Raster images are things such as photographs and clip art. I’m going to revisit these terms, because if you don’t understand them you won’t be able to make your own print and cut images. This helps me to be able to keep my business going and provide more tutorials. That means if you click the link and purchase something, I may receive a small commission. ![]() Note: This post contains affiliate links. I’ll also give you ideas of other ways to use tattoo paper. I’m using temporary tattoo paper (kids in my family request new ones all the time), but you could use regular cardstock or another material if you like. Now that you know how to print and cut a design from the Silhouette Design Store, I’ll show you how to make very simple print and cut projects of your own. In today’s lesson, we’re going to build on that one. I definitely recommend starting there, as it has all the basics about set-up which is critical for a successful print and cut. But i also live in Canada: where my partner works at a bank and gets given a hard time for not showing off his tattoos MORE. also, you're only getting a sleeve, no one will batt an eye.This the second in my beginner series on Print and Cut Projects. The one thing is the clients, unfortunately - most institutional clients at least, tend to be more conservative, and it might affect whether your employer wants to put you in front of them or not - to this I would say, go the extra mile to dress well at work and prove that you can appear polished and professional (this is maybe just good advice for everybody) and it shouldn't be a problem. I'm also of the opinion that i wouldn't want anyone who wouldn't have me because of something as shallow as tattoos. i have even worn short sleeves to a corporate -ish job interview and gotten the job. I have never had trouble getting a job, most employers think it makes me cool and edgy, and they want to project that into the world. Just consider flexibility for future career/role/setting changes.Īs a female architect with tons of visible tattoos, a half-sleeve is no big deal, and completely normal in the industry by this point. Again it would depend on the type of firm, projects that they do, and your role there whether those types of events would be an issue. Sometimes I have to attend work-related semi-formal events, dinners, etc., and wouldn't ordinarily choose long sleeves in summer, though I guess that's not impossible. But before deciding that you'd never, ever work in a really conservative firm anyway, just also consider that architecture is notorious for cyclical downturns, so there are likely to come some times in your working life when, if you want to keep working in architecture firms rather than temporarily or permanently switch fields, you may have to take jobs you wouldn't choose during better times.Īlso as a woman in architecture I'd question whether it will always be practical to keep that covered in professional settings. In some - maybe most - other firms it won't matter. He had a lot of other rules/hangups besides tattoos. In one conservative old firm that I worked in, the Principal in that branch wouldn't hire anybody with any visible tattoos, no matter how small. If it's visible then yes it will be a problem for some.
