I will be happy to post something in the Photography section at some point about making the "postcards" - not sure exactly what you mean however. The borders around the pics, or the collages?
Both, Ex! :ty: :yes: 0/0

These pics are astounding! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Love the Eskom Bird especially, never seen one! :-0

Thanks for keeping me company during this TT nan, Sis, Mel, RP, and Pumbaa. :yes: :yes:

I didn't realize the Black Heron was not seen very often, even by regular visitors to Kruger. I feel even more lucky to have been in the right place at the right moment. \O O:V

Sis, as far as getting them "doing something", I just try to be patient, but it doesn't always pay off, of course.
