Well this is a wide statement. Web images can be great if they are high res. images and very large in size, but most are under 50k. 50 kilobytes is drastically small considering 3 sq. ft. should be 24 megabytes. Also they are bitmap, which means 4 color process prints. Basically web images are normally not a safe source for art.
It all depends on what kind of product we are producing, if we are doing a 1 color vinyl sign/banner the best format is Illustrator, in most cases if you can give it to us in Illustrator format it's usually the best, even for an inkjet or Edge print. If it's an ink jet print it's ok to give it to us in .TIF or .PSD format.
The turn around time depends on the order, in all cases we get the job done as fast as possible. For an average job, the turn around time is 2-3 business days, but it all depends on size, quantity, availability, etc. We always try to meet any of your deadline requests.
Vector art is kind of like line art. If you'd put a pen on a piece of paper and draw. Circles and Squares are simple vector images.
Raster is more of a photograph, with gradients, soft meshes, textures, etc. Not just spot color sharp lines. You could not cut out a raster image. Raster can be 1,2,3, or 4 colors which makes the entire spectrum (CMYK, RGB, ETC.).
When comparing apples to apples we believe our prices are very competitive. We always put out the highest quality for the same price as our competitors. We will never sacrifice quality for price.
