Thanks Dave, That's not a bad idea at all, sticking a photo on.
The one thing that I have learnt here is to try different methods so I expect I'll try a bit of each and see what works for me. About time the printer did something creative. I too have family scattered about, hence the desire for something more personal and no doubt my children will get in on the act (three under 7)!

I did something like this last year - I took a picture someone else had shot of me, the wife and the little girl (about five months old then) and just stuck in it a card with no caption. Sure, it's not the greatest quality in the world, but it's nice when your little family is halfway around the world from your relatives - they open the card and there's a little picture of us waving at them. Alternatively, you could print on A5 card and just fold it over. Any reasonable printer would do, really. If you can double side it, very good, but you can just write something on the inside, does the job too. dave - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
