So I just got KT's Acension print in the mail and it looks insanely good, the only issue is a small dot of black ink missing from the top. I've come across this with some other prints I've gotten where a small white mark in a solid color is present. Is this a) a part of the screenprinting process and therefore I shouldn't worry about it? or b) a print flaw that I should seek a replacement for. Another silly question, is there something that can be done to fix it/fill it in short of going to PosterMountain? The dot is in the 2nd pic below:

Really? Use a sharpie.

Right on. I guess when you get to 28k posts you get tired of answering dumb questions from beginners. I thought of the sharpie but I didn't know whether that was bad for the print or if the ink would bleed too much. Thanks for the info!

Just let it be. Pretend it's a satellite.

Edit: I like the North Star one better. Pretend it's that.
