"Primitive" signs?
What were the signs hanging outside colonial American "shoppes" called? Aside from primitive, did they actually have a name?
I have heard of them being called shingles or plaques.
: $10.99
What kind of font is used on country/primitive craft signs?
and how do they paint it? is it just a skill, or can you buy stencils? if so, where?
Like the first sign here: http://www.berrycountrycrafts.com/pics/writingstyles.jpg
THANKS!
I always use Bradley Hand ITC for this sort of font. I don't know about a stencil for it, although it's a great idea! I taught myself to do it by printing out alphabets (lower and upper case) and writing (copying) the letters below (kind of like teaching a child to print).

I would like to make a Wood primitive sign ..but, I need tips on how to do it.?
My sister told me she loves the wooden signs that say" Always kiss me goodnight" and I would love to make her one for Christmas. I have looked online ...but, I am not sure how to make one. ....what kind of paint,a cheap place to get letter stencils that look old fashioned,how to get the crackle effect...and so on. I lack alot of self confidence when it comes to trying to do any kind of crafts. I know I would love doing it...just afraid of failing.... screwing up. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You and MERRY CHRISTMAS !!
Hi:
For a crackle effect - there is crackle paint medium that you can get at a crafts store. I haven't used this yet, but I think you paint a base color, let that dry, and then paint another color with this medium mixed in - as it dries, the cracks will form. The thicker the application, the bigger the cracked pieces, thinner - smaller, finer cracks. You might also want to use a light glaze over the top layer to highlight the crackle effect.
You might find an example of a sign you might like to emulate, and use that as a starting point for making your own pattern. If you need more help, just ask. Hope this helps.
Have an American winter scene primitive oil painting, signed BouchET. Who is the artist?
Grandma Moses style
BouchET I should think.
That sounded rude, sorry.
Google the words, artist, bouchet, and see what they come up with, yes?
How can I print out the limit of Java primitive data type, e.g byte, short, int?
byte: The byte data type is an 8-bit signed two's complement integer. It has a minimum value of -128 and a maximum value of 127
How to check that using a java class?
System.out.println("Min byte value = " + Byte.MIN_VALUE);
System.out.println("Max byte value = " + Byte.MAX_VALUE);
