    I don't need many at all. Where's the best place to get some done?

    Would like to just be able to upload my picture and go from there

    If you have a decent printer, you should buy the sticker paper at Wal-Mart and print them yourself. :D

    assuming that's not an option. I live close to a printing shop but I'm not sure they do stickers. How do I take an image in to a printing company for this?

    Save the image to a floppy, cd, what? Also, what about formats?

    I do local label printing all the time. Most print shops will have 8.5x11 label stock and if they don't just ask what they recommend then pick some up at your local office supply store.

    As for formats, PDF is the standard. Can be transported on CD or a USB drive

    How do I make a picture PDF? I've never had to have this done before. What I'm wanting to do is get 2-3 stickers made to advertise my site with. A couple friends said they'd put them on their car so lol

    Here's the picture. I ran it through an online vectorizing site. Is this suitable?

    You just need a PDF creator. The best is the full version of Adobe Acrobat, but a Google search for freeware or sharewar PDF creator will probably turn up some options as well.

    If you're looking at putting them on cars, though you need vinyl. I'd try stickerguy.com for that Have used him numerous times over the years. Great service and low prices

    Actually stickerguy might not want to do that in such a short run. Contact me via pm or website email and I will get you some stickers.

    Aagz is correct - you need vinyl, the stuff I use is 5-7 years outdoor. If you get that stuff from Walmart I would suggest only driving at night due to the UV rays fading your sticker within a couple weeks to months.
