  • Baseball Cap
    Table of Contents • Introduction • Best Practices • Dimensions • File Formats • Top Selling Products • Do’s & Don’ts • Design Inspiration • To Wrap This Up Introduction Embroidery and direct-to-garment printing are two completely different processes. To put this in perspective t-shirt design won’t work as a hat design. Complicated designs are too difficult to embroider – our machines only have a certain capacity to embroider your designs. With embroidery – less is technically more. Use bold designs with thick lines to achieve the best embroidered look. Additionally, embroidery has limited color options. Please do not include shading in your designs. If you are planning to use multiple colors, please make sure your designs have large enough detail for our machines to properly embroider your designs. We offer 16 different colors. We suggest using no more than 2 color gradients. For our visual observers, we have a cheat sheet below. Best Practices • Stick to fonts that are larger than .18″ in height • Solid font if smaller than 1” • No drop shadow or outlines around the text if it is smaller than .5″ in height • Fill all objects containing negative space under .2” W x .2” H (transparencies) with a solid color NOTE: Distressed fonts may be simplified without notice to the seller or customer. Dimensions Embroidery file size: 4” width x 2.4” height When editing embroidery files, stay within the actual embroidery area dimensions. Scenario 1: If your artwork is 2.4″ in height, the artwork will not be stretched to 4″, it will stay proportional to its size. Scenario 2: If your artwork is 4″ in width, the artwork will not be stretched to 2.4″, it will stay proportional to its size.

  • Prestige, Professionalism, and the Paradox of Eadweard Muybridge's
    Prestige, Professionalism, and the Paradox of Eadweard Muybridge’s Animal Locomotion Nudes N 1878, EADWEARD MUYBRIDGE’S serial photographs of trotting and galloping horses stunned artists, scientists, and critics in the United IStates and Europe (fig. 1). Muybridge’s camera revealed equine bodies frozen mid-leap in positions never before detected by the human eye or captured on film. When viewed in quick succession, the serial photo- graphs reanimated motion and the subjects sprang to life. Nine years later, the culmination of Muybridge’s motion studies was published in Philadelphia under the auspices of the University of Pennsylvania. Animal Locomotion: An Electro-photographic Investigation of Consecutive Phases of Animal Movements, 1872–1885, comprised 781 nineteen-by-twenty-four-inch collotype plates, each of which contained between twelve and thirty-six frames, resulting in a total of approximately twenty thousand images.1 Of the 781 plates, 514 depicted adult men and women in motion; 5 focused on the movement of an adult male hand; 27 captured abnormal male and female movement; 16 represented children; and 219 depicted animals, including horses, birds, and various other wild and domestic animals. Notably, approximately 340 of the series featured fully nude men and women performing daily activities before a gridded backdrop. Populating the first four volumes and part of volume eight of the eleven-volume publication, the male nudes ran, jumped, rowed, and swung bats (fig. 2) while the females swept, served tea, made beds, and danced, among other activities (fig. 3). The author would like to express her gratitude to the Library Company of Philadelphia, The Historical Society of Pennsylvania, the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, and Northwestern University for their generous support.

  • To Center City: the Evolution of the Neighborhood of the Historicalsociety of Pennsylvania
    From "Frontier"to Center City: The Evolution of the Neighborhood of the HistoricalSociety of Pennsylvania THE HISToRICAL SOcIETY OF PENNSYLVANIA found its permanent home at 13th and Locust Streets in Philadelphia nearly 120 years ago. Prior to that time it had found temporary asylum in neighborhoods to the east, most in close proximity to the homes of its members, near landmarks such as the Old State House, and often within the bosom of such venerable organizations as the American Philosophical Society and the Athenaeum of Philadelphia. As its collections grew, however, HSP sought ever larger quarters and, inevitably, moved westward.' Its last temporary home was the so-called Picture House on the grounds of the Pennsylvania Hospital in the 800 block of Spruce Street. Constructed in 1816-17 to exhibit Benjamin West's large painting, Christ Healing the Sick, the building was leased to the Society for ten years. The Society needed not only to renovate the building for its own purposes but was required by a city ordinance to modify the existing structure to permit the widening of the street. Research by Jeffrey A. Cohen concludes that the Picture House's Gothic facade was the work of Philadelphia carpenter Samuel Webb. Its pointed windows and crenellations might have seemed appropriate to the Gothic darkness of the West painting, but West himself characterized the building as a "misapplication of Gothic Architecture to a Place where the Refinement of Science is to be inculcated, and which, in my humble opinion ought to have been founded on those dear and self-evident Principles adopted by the Greeks." Though West went so far as to make plans for 'The early history of the Historical Soiety of Pennsylvania is summarized in J.Thomas Scharf and Thompson Westcott, Hisiory ofPhiladelphia; 1609-1884 (2vols., Philadelphia, 1884), 2:1219-22.

    2020 | COLLECTION nrs.com | 1 Free z-drag refresher course on the Snake River, OR. Erik Boomer Born on the river, ready for whatever. Almost no river trip comes off without a hitch. It’s always something–a flat tire, a bungled shuttle, unexpected weather, flips, swims, or mischievous wildlife. We here at NRS have withstood more than our share of river snafus. We know that no amount of preparation can prevent the inevitable and that responding to unforeseen challenges is half the point. Still, we do our best to make sure that gear failures and wardrobe malfunctions are not part of the excitement on your next adventure. Behind the pretty pictures in the pages to follow are countless hours spent fretting over design, materials, components and construction on everything from a pair of gloves to a 27-foot Grand Canyon gear boat. Today, the equipment and apparel we build gets used far beyond the river—on oceans and lakes, in mountains and deserts, for traveling the world and just kicking around town—but the approach we take hasn’t wavered. If it passes the river test, it’s ready for anything. “Born on the river, ready for whatever” is more than just a tagline. It’s the concept behind every product we make. It’s also a philosophy we hope you’ll keep in mind next time—and there will be a next time—things go haywire on the water. NEW for 2020 REVISED or NEW COLOR for 2020 MEN’S SUP Sun, heat, blisters, abrasion—don’t let them plague your next SUP adventure.
