This is the second incarnation of my sublimation business.  In the first one,
which was called "Image Graphics, Inc.", it was alive and well in the 1990's
and did very well.  We finally closed up in 2001 after business fell off.  The
sublimation technology had gotten cheaper and more widespread and that hurt us.

Image Graphics had customers ranging from the White House (yes, THE White
House), all branches of the military, Fortune 500 companies and major colleges
as well as the on-the-street individual.  It was great and a lot of fun too.

Even then, I had a fulltime job.  My wife ran the business and I helped her
with it.

This latest effort, which I called "Green Monkey Graphics", did well the first
year.  Several factors contributed to my decision to close up.  Again, I have
enjoyed and it and do not reget it at all.
