At this time of year when Thanksgiving is upon us, we make it a point to develop a deep sense of thankfulness for many things. We reach out to others and share some of our money, talents, and support.

In a time when digital seems to be taking over conferences and new markets, we are optimistic about new opportunities in screen printing. Garment-printing trends have added much to the style market. Long runs and specialty substrates along with lots of changes in the industry keep us all hopping. Industrial decoration and special effects have opened up new markets for us as well.

We are thankful for printers who use many methods to print, then demand matching color between them so that the end results flow in a coordinated campaign. For it is in an integrated marketplace with lots of automated tools that the future lies.

At the end of the day, we are thankful for the printers, who are also writers, who share their experiences with our readers. Passing on the knowledge opens up pathways for many innovations.
