Hello fellas- I'm new around these parts, but I've been reading for a few months. I recall about 2 months ago there was a thread begun about independents selling local on-screen ads between shows, and info on where to get slides made, etc...anyone help me find that again? Much appreciated

The search button is so tiny on my screen I didn't even notice it...I must be getting old!
Thanks

I'd suggest just getting a cheap video projector and mounting it on the ceiling in front of the screen and hook it into a computer in the booth, it might be a little pricy at first, but in the long run power point slides don't cost anything, so once the system's paid off, it's all profit with no slide processing fees, and you can run video commercials as well as slides.

Yes, but slide projector bulbs are cheaper than video projector bulbs.
