[TriEmbed] shout out and archive mention & Re: Enclosure decals

[Ron Craig]

I agree completely. Thanks to all who replied.

Scott, I've looked at the waterslide, and like the idea.  Hint: invert your
image, and you won't have to slide the paper from beneath your decal. You
can slide it off the top.
Unfortunately, given I want white, I'll have to go another way.

The custom rub-on looks interesting (given I want to use my own chosen font
-- a military spec font used for aircraft panels), but at over $80 just to
get a starter kit to try it, plus needing to buy a different laminator
($90-140 more) on top, it's just too expensive.

I don't have a CNC or laser cutter, so I'm stuck with what I can create
with my PC and inkjet. I cannot find white for an HP 950 cartridge, so even
that is blocked.

So, I'm going to try this:
https://www.makestickers.com/products/custom-stickers/rectangle-stickers
I can lay out the artwork in Inkscape, export as a high res PNG and upload
to their website.  One sticker of 6" x 5" will hold both front and rear
panels. It's just $8.86 and ships within a few days.  I'll let y'all know
how it goes once I've got the rear laid out and get back the result.
