Sorry I 've not been around much for over a week! just been running around with school stuff for ds and dd.also had a lovely day out at Stitch and Craft show at Shepton Mallett last Thursday, bought some lovely stash- including pro-markers- 15 for £15, my first ones so been trying them out.
Hugs and best wishes to anyone who needs them, congratulations to all winners, you all seem very talented and busy- put me to shame!!
Thrifty- thinking of you doing son's DLA form it's an absolutly awful, I have to do my review form soon I was helped to claim by local CAB originally and luckily advisor there was great (a disability rights worker too). She said I should keep a copy of the form not just in case DWP lose it but also to help me complete reviews etc. I claim cos I sufferred PND and Anxiety when DS and DD born (13 yrs and 7yrs now) still struggle to go anywhere "new" to me alone and suffer general anxiety all the time. Hugs to you and your son, I can understand his feelings, I feel such an idiotic and weak person when I read through the things I have to put on the forms.

Will try to catch up on blogs, but if can't get through them all I apologise in advance.

Yep print it off and colour in or you could colour it on your computer in a program like paint. I print mine off on smooth card. You can also resize the image to whatever size you want. hth

I download mine to a folder on my desktop (and later save on external HD plus a memory stick).

To print I open up a new document (I use Open Office and WordPro), import the picture then resize to what I want. I print onto card. I've just bought some nice card for digital printing from Craftwork Cards but any smooth card will be OK. I wouldn't go any lower than 160gsm but use heavier card if I have it. The card from CCards is 250gsm.

Hope that helps Mumoffour.

Sorry, crossed posts with Dragonllew.
