    This sounds really good, and I think we would be interested in something like this. Do you have any you can post pics of on here please?

    Have just had a quick glimpse at your site but the only ones I saw with photos on were Driving Licence type with writing on the side. Do you do just full pictures on the cards and/or can you do just a picture with a personal message on the side? :)

    Marker,

    am sure if you want a messge on the back then i can certainly oblige

    I think however it would detract from the idea of having the photo

    surely if you want to place a message you want to be able to read it as you are looking at the photo?

    any messages on the back would be done in black ink only....but am more than happy to add the message for the advertised cost....it usually costs to print onto the rear of the card.......will maybe alter my original post to add the fact messages are available

    Thanks for your input...it is greatly appreciated

    Martin,

    Thanks for the endorsement on this post
    Thus far have been unable to think of a valid way to ratify orders

    Am open to suggestions from members of the forum that will allow updates to be posted on those members who have ordered items.

    Since they were founded, the organisation has raised over £7m.
    MEMBERS of the Merseyside branch of the Royal Tank Regiment Association (RTRA) gathered outside Bootle Town Hall to launch their sponsored walk in aid of the ‘Help for Heroes’ fund.
