<cak> I've done some, but I could use a review if the others don't mind

<magpie> WELL, I PUT THE EASY-PEASY ONES FIRST-EST

<Jayne> I'd like that, too

<magpie> ALSO, JUST AS A DISCLAIMER, IMAGE TRANSFERS ARE A LOT OF EXPERIMENTATION AND TRIAL & ERROR

<Dorothy> I've got them

<magpie> OK, GO HERE HTTP://WWW.THIEVING-MAGPIE.COM

<magpie> THEN, IN THE MIDDLE OF MY WELCOME PAGE, WHERE IT SAYS

<sandyh13> yeah, i've got the home page...now where?

<magpie> WELCOME CYBERSTAMPERS

<magpie> THERES A LINK JUST BELOW THAT

<Dorothy> Ann click the link that she just put up and on the home page it says class photos click thst and youare there

<magpie> LOVE YA' CINDY

<Lilo> hello

<magpie> HI

<magpie> WE'RE JUST LOOKING AT THE CLASS PAGE NOW

<magpie> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<sandyh13> got it finally...ty

<magpie> OK, NOW DOES EVERYONE SEE THE IMAGE TRANSFERS I MADE???

<julie> yep

<Janet> yes! now i do

<stampbyrd> yes

<Phyl> yes

<Jayne> yes

<magpie> WHEE DOGGIE!!

<magpie> OK, LET'S START WITH THE SUPER BASICS

<cak> thanks! I like that

<magpie> THE FIRST 3 ON THE PAGE ARE ALL DONE WITH COLOR AND B&W XEROXES

<magpie> JUST PLAIN OL' COPIES MADE A KINKOS OR YOUR FAVE LOCAL COPY SHOP

<magpie> NOT SPECIAL PAPER OR TONER OR ANYTHING

<Janet> would it work with laser printed pages, do you think?

<magpie> SURE, THAT'S ESSENTIALLY JUST A XEROX ANYWAY

<magpie> SAME TYPE OF TONER

<Janet> that's what I thought but figured I better ask

<magpie> FOR THE FIRST ONES, I USED A CHARTPAK BLENDER PEN

  

<magpie> THE PEN IS USED TO BLEND THE OTHER CHARTPAK MARKERS WHEN COLORING WITH THEM

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> NO, YOU CANNOT USE A PRISMACOLOR BLENDER, AS IT DOESN'T HAVE THE SAME STUFF IN IT AND DOESN'T WORK

<cak> Chartpak are solvent based markers?

<magpie> THE CHARTPAK ONE IS THE BEST

<magpie> I THINK SO, IT SURE IS STINKY ENOUGH

<cak> lol

<magpie> OH, YEAH, DEFINITELY USE WITH LOTS OF VENTILATION

<Janet> i love to sniff that one

<magpie> EWWWW JANET

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> TY JUDY

<Judy> yw

<Janet> i like to sniff a lot of solvent stuff.

<magpie> OR COPY AND PASTE

<magpie> THAT COULD EXPLAIN A LOT JANEY

<magpie> UHHH JANET

<Janet> LOL i think it does

<Janet> and I answer to Janey a lot

<magpie> OK, ANYWAY, TO USE THE BLENDER PEN, TAKE YOUR COPY, CUT DOWN TO SIZE AND LAY IT FACE DOWN ON YOUR ART PAPER

<magpie> I JUST USED WATERCOLOR PAPER IN THIS CASE

<magpie> THEN COLOR THE BACK OF YOUR IMAGE WITH THE BLENDER PEN UNTIL IT IS TRANSLUCENT

<magpie> IT WON'T TAKE MUCH

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> THEN RUB THE BACK OF THE IMAGE WITH A BONE FOLDER OR SPOON (FOR ANNO)

<Dorothy> I haven't come across Chart Pak...

<magpie> IT WON'T TAKE MUCH RUBBING, OR VERY HARD FOR TRANSFERS WITH THE PEN

<magpie> AS YOU CAN SEE THE PEN WORKS THE BEST FOR COLOR COPIES, AND I THINK FOR B&W TOO

<Janet> dot, try that huge graphics store across from the covent garden tube stop

<Dorothy> Ok I'll ask... thanks

<magpie> CHARTPAK IS USUALLY MARKETED IN GRAPHIC DESIGN AND ART STORES

<magpie> NOT TO CRAFTS MARKET

* Janet knows where to find art supplies allll over the world<g>

<Dorothy> Right thanks

<magpie> A MARKER SHOULD COST ABOUT $2 - 3

<magpie> ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FIRST TRANSERS?

<julie> I might be able to do that :)

<Janet> no, that looks like I might could do it

<magpie> SUPER EASY

<Dorothy> What were you transferring to here?

<cak> no questions, but all of the transfers have a fabulous soft quality

<magpie> WATERCOLOR PAPER

<magpie> SMOOTH FINISH

<julie> does it have to be a heavier paper to transfer to

<Dorothy> OK ty

<magpie> NOPE, BUT IF ITS TOO THIN, LIKE COPY PAPER, THE SOLVENT WILL RUN THROUGH BOTH PAPERS

<julie> i see, ty

<magpie> BASICALLY THE ACETONE AND WINTERGREEN OIL TRANSFERS WORK THE SAME WAY

<magpie> THE ACETONE IS JUST 100% ACETONE FROM THE DRUGSTORE'S NAIL CARE AISLE

 

<Janet> can I use this to transfer images to polymer clay?

<magpie> I SOAK A COTTONBALL WITH IT AND RUB THE BACK OF THE IMAGE THAT WAY

<Janet> or to the glass boxes?

<magpie> YES, I THINK, BUT THERE IS BETTER WAYS TO DO THAT

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<Janet> okay

<magpie> NOT TO THE GALSS BOXES, NON-POROUS SURACE YA KNOW

<Janet> i really want to know how to do those

<magpie> WITH THE ACETONE IT SOMETIMES TAKES 2 APPLICATIONS AND RUBBINGS

<Janet> (so I need to sit quietly and listen<g>)

<magpie> SIT ON YOUR HANDS JANET

<magpie> I'LL GET RIGHT TO THOSE

<Janet> LOL

* Dorothy slaps BlackCats around a bit with a wet fish

<cak> lol

* Dorothy slaps Janet around a bit with a wet fish

<magpie> THE WINTERGREEN OIL WILL LEAVE A SCENT ON YOUR PAPER, FYI

 

<Janet> LOL now I need lunch<g>

<magpie> AND SOME OIL IS TINTED, SO MAY LEAVE A SLIGHT COLOR

<Dorothy> Sorry folks I was playing!

<Janet> ooo a good scent, too

<cak> I've seen (but not had any luck) transfering magazine images with lighter fluid--I wonder if it would work with toner-based images?

* Wanda thinks janet is not sitting on her hands very well

<magpie> MINE WAS NOT, BUT THE OIL DOES SPREAD INTO THE PAPER SO IT CAN AFFECT OTHER THINGS IN YOUR ART

<Janet> being quiet is not one of my better skills<g>

<Dorothy> I like the soft look of these have you ever tried on fabric?

<magpie> THE OIL CAN BE TOXIC IF SWALLOWED TOO, SO KEEP IT OUT OF REACH WHEN USING IT

<Judy> lol - we knew that, Janet!

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> FABRIC...NO NOT YET

<Phyl> Hi isis

<Tarotmama> hi!

<magpie> YOU CAN DO TRANSFER TO FABRIC WITH A PAINT STRIPPER, BUT THAT'S SUPER TOXIC AND STINKY

<magpie> I'D RATHER JUST USE LASERTRAN IN THAT CASE

<Dorothy> OK

<magpie> BASICALLY, ALL OF THESE TONER BASED TRANSFERS ARE DONE BY LAYING THE IMAGE FACE DOWN, WETTING IT WITH THE SOLVENT AND RUBBING

<magpie> SUPER EASY

<magpie> THE EXPERIMENTATION COMES WITH HOW MUCH SOLVENT, HOW HARD TO RUB (OR NOT), 1 OR 2 OR 3 APPLICATIONS, ETC.

<magpie> DOT, I THINK THIS METHOD WOULD WORK ON A TIGHTLY WOVEN PLAIN FABRIC LIKE MUSLIN

<magpie> NOT SURE OF THE WASHABILITY

<Tarotmama> (I believe in gin as a great solvent)

<Phyl> solves everything

<Dorothy> OK... I hoped it might.

<magpie> THERE IS SUCH A THING AS GIN TRANSFERS TOO!!

<Janet> i believe in gin for a lotta things<g>

<AnnD> mmm this sounds like lots of fun!

<magpie> OK READY FOR THE GLASS STUFF???

<Dorothy> yup

<Janet> yes!!

<Phyl> you betcha

<magpie> OK SEE ALL THESE COOL LITTLE GLASS TILES

<cak> I'm ready for anything you have to share--cool stuff

<Phyl> yup

<magpie> NOTE HOW THEY ARE NOT ON MY SITE

<magpie> WELL, SECRETLY THEY ARE

<Dorothy> You keeping them to yourself? grin

<Phyl> hoarder

<cak> oooo, just for us?

<magpie> THEY ARE WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU HEAT YOUR LG GLASS BOX AT 300 FOR 10 MINUTES!!

<Janet> LOL!

<Wanda> lol

<Phyl> hahahahaha

<Dorothy> te He

<Judy> lol, Ingred!

<magpie> YEAH, I DID THAT ON PURPOSE

<cak> wow--that's a great transfer too

<magpie> NO REALLY I DID

<Phyl> likely story

<burningru> uhhu

<Janet> she probably did. I woulda discovered it by accident<g>

<magpie> WHEN I WAS DOING TRANSFERS ON THE BOXES FOR LAST CLASS (SAMPLES IN ATELIER)

<magpie> I HEATED ONE TOO LONG AND WAS LEFT WITH 6 COOL TIMES

<magpie> TILES

<magpie> SO, TRANSFER AWAY I THOUGHT!

<Phyl> good thinking

<magpie> THESE ARE ALL COLOR COPIES FROM VINTAGE PHOTOS AND POSTCARD

<magpie> I USED GLASS PAINT MEDUIM

<Stampverb> where are the tile transferred being shown? I got losted, lol

<magpie> MEANT FOR BLENDING GLASS AND TILE PAINT

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<Janet> down at the bottom of the page, verb

<Stampverb> ty

<magpie> YOU CAN BUY TRANSPARENT, IRIDESCENT AND FROSTED

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> AND YOU CAN EVEN GET IT AT THE M STORE

<magpie> 2 OF THE SAMPLES WERE DONE WITH THE IRIDESCENT

<magpie> NO 3 ACTUALLY

<Wanda> which 3

<magpie> IT ONLY ADD A HINT OF IRIDESCENCE TO THE PROJECT IN THE RIGHT LIGHT AT THE RIGHT ANGLE

<magpie> THE 2 SMALLEST AND THE LARGEST

<Wanda> ty

<magpie> I DON'T LIKE THE FROSTED

<magpie> IT DIDN'T GIVE ME ANY FROSTED LOOK AND THE IMAGES DIDN'T ADHERE AS WELL

<magpie> THE IRIDECENT REALLY STUCK THOSE IMAGES ON THERE THOUGH!!

<magpie> BETTER THAN THE TRANSPARENT TOO

<cak> Would the frosted work for a distressed look?

<magpie> MAYBE

<toni> hi I just got in Is it too late to find out what is going on?

<magpie> HERE COMES THAT WORD AGAIN,

<magpie> EXPERIMENT!!

<magpie> NOPE, CHECK OUT OUR TRANSFER PAGE

<Janet> toni, go to the url that judy gave to see the samples.

<Judy> http://home.mindspring.com/~thievingmagpie/magpieart/transfers.html

<magpie> WE'RE LOOKING AT THE GLASS TILES RIGHT NOW

<Janet> (hold down your control key and double click)

<cak> but you say the irridescent keeps some of its irridescence?

<cak> (I hope)

<magpie> A WEE BIT, DEPENDING ON HOW THICK YOU LAY IT ON AND IF THERE'S BRUSH STROKES ETC

<Dorothy> Janet where can I get this medium here? grin

<magpie> THE STROKES GIVE AREAS FOR THE LIGHT TO REFLECT OFF

<Janet> LOL check the hobby store

<Dorothy> OK...

<Janet> in the stained glass section

<Dorothy> OH I know what you mean now

<magpie> ANY PLACE THAT MIGHT SELL SUPPLIES FOR PAINTING ON GLASS OR TILES OR CERAMICS

<Stampverb> when I use that URL I get transferred to the Atelier pages

<Stampverb> oops, sorry, meant to send that to a Staff person

<magpie> BRAND NAMES ARE PEBEO OR LEFRAN & BOURGEOIS (FROM FRANCE AND EVERYTHING)

<Tarotmama> verb, that is the right page

<Tarotmama> look at the glass boxes at the bottom

<magpie> WERID VERB, I JUST TRIED IT AND GOT MY CLASS PAGE

<Dorothy> Possible Im ight even have some pebeo

<magpie> UHH WEIRD

<Judy> Verb - go to home page and click on class link in middle of page

<Stampverb> I see the glass boxes--no tiles

<magpie> HMMM, SUSPICIOUS

<toni> I don't know how to do this

<Tarotmama> hmm

<Stampverb> the class page flashes for a sec, then Atelier page

<magpie> TO TRANSFER ON GLASS IS EASY

<magpie> FIRST YOU CUT YOUR IMAGE DOWN TO THE TILE OR BOX SIZE

<magpie> DON'T LEAVE ANY HANGING OVE

<Stampverb> ok I'll experiment--sorry to disturb the class!

<magpie> THEN PAINT ON A LAYER OF THE GLASS PAINT MEDIUM ON TO THE GLASS

<toni> no I mean how to be in this classroom and find things and all

<cak> magpie--how exact do you have to be, (I'm not sadly)?

<magpie> THEN SET YOUR IMAGE ON IT, AND PRESS OUT, GENTLY, ANY AIR BUBBLES

<magpie> MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A NICE CONTACT ALL THE WAY AROUND

<Phyl> Is that the actual name of it? Glass paint medium?

<magpie> NOT VERY, JUST DONT LEAVE A BIG MARGIN AROUND YOUR IMAGE, 'CAUSE IT WON'T LOOK NICE AND DONT LEAVCE A LOT OF EXTRA PAPER 'CAUSE IT WONT ADHERE RIGHT ON THE EDGES WHERE YOU WANT IT TO STICK

<cak> good, close enough I can do. exact--nope, not without a lot of practice

<magpie> I FIND AN IMAGE THAT FILLS THE SPACE IS BEST

<magpie> TRIED SMALLER STUFF BUT THE GLASS PAINT LOOKS FUNNY WHERE THERE'S NO PIC

<magpie> THEN, LET THAT DRY OVERNIGHT, OR A REAL LONG TIME

<Janet> ohhhh and you said this was easy?? I can't wait.

<magpie> THEN BAKE AT 300F FOR ABOUT 8 MINUTES FOR A TILE OR 275F FOR A BOX

<magpie> JANETS GOT A WAIT PROBLEM

<magpie> :P

<Dorothy> Beahve Janet!

<Janet> LOL in all ways you can imagine<g>

<Dorothy> behave

<magpie> AFTER BAKING, WASH THE PAPER BACKING OFF THE GLASS

<cak> how long do you have to let it cool and is it critical?

<Janet> i'm thinking my nieces need boxes for christmas

<magpie> THE WHITE PAPER WILL START TO PEEL OFF OR ROLL OFF WITH WATER

<magpie> RUB LIGHTLY UNTIL MOST OF THE PAPER IS GONE

<magpie> YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE A LIGHT FROSTY BIT OF PAPER ON THE BACK OF YOUR GLASS

<magpie> COOL ENOUGH TO PICK UP

<magpie> YOU CAN SEAL THE IMAGE WITH MORE GLASS MEDIUM

<magpie> OR BACK IT WITH RIBBON, VINTAGE FABRIC, ANOTHER PAPER

<magpie> I THINK I'LL TURN MY SMALL ONES INTO PENDANTS

<magpie> WITH RIBBON BACKS

<AnnD> will these be waterproof or wipeable?

<magpie> WIPEABLE IF YOU SEAL THE BACK OF THE IMAGE

<magpie> DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU MEAN BY WATERPROO

<AnnD> right - thanks

<Wanda> so we are seeing the images through the glass, right

<magpie> YES, THAT'S WHY THEY'RE IN THE WINDOW, SO YOU CAN SEE THE TRANSLUCENCE

<Janet> i'm hoping to put the transfers on the inside of the box, surely they won't get trashed on the inside

<Judy> could use images with words in them

<magpie> SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT REVERSING TEXT OR ANYTHING

<Wanda> great

<magpie> LIKE YOU DO WITH THE SOLVENT TYPE TRANSFERS ABOVE

<magpie> OF COURSE WHEN MAKING THE COPIES FOR SOLVENT TRANSFERS, JUST HIT THE MIRROR IMAGE KEY IF YOU HAVE TEXT

<magpie> SIMPLE

<toni> is there a place to go and read this from the beginning. Also last night's class? We had company and I couldn't come to Evo's class like I wanted to

<magpie> YEAH, I THINK SO

<magpie> ANYONE??

<toni> this is all very new to me (chat, that is)

<Phyl> yes they will be on the log page

<Janet> our cak puts those up fairly quickly

<toni> where is the log page?

<magpie> ALSO, YOU CAN EMAIL ME WITH QUESTIONS IF SOMETHINGS NOT GOING RIGHT

<cak> yeah, I should have them up sometime today or tomorrow (http://www.cyberstampers.com/logs.html I think)

<Janet> there's a link at www.cyberstampers.com

<toni> thank you

<magpie> A BIG THING WITH GLASS TRANSFERS IS PICKING THE RIGHT IMAGE

<cak> (Janet you always know the quick way!)

<magpie> AS YOU CAN SEE THE BOLDLY COLORED ONES, THE BATHING BEAUTY AND THE MEXICAN WOMAN LOOK THE BEST

<cak> what do you have to keep in mind for choosing?

<Tarotmama> how so, the right image?

<Phyl> I heard that about Janet

<Tarotmama> ah ty

<magpie> IF ITS A VERY LIGHT BLUE OR LIGHTLY COLORED, YOU WON'T SEE MUCH

<Janet> LOL

<magpie> A FRIEND DID A BOX WITH A LOT OF LIGHT BLUE BACKGROUNDS WITH WORDS AND IT WAS HARD TO SEE THE IMAGES

<magpie> ONE LARGER BOLDLY COLORED IMAGE SEEMS TO WORK NICEST

<cak> that makes a lot of sense

<magpie> ALSO, THE SIZE OF THE BOXES SHOULD BE MEDIUM OR LARGE

<magpie> THE XSMALL IS DEFINITELY TOO SMALL FOR ALMOST ANYTHING

<Dorothy> I ooreder one of each from you last night!

<Dorothy> ordered

<magpie> YEP, I GOTTA FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET YOUR PAYMENT!! LOL

<magpie> I'M WORKING ON IT

<Dorothy> OK

<Tarotmama> one doesn't have to take the box apart to do this, right?

<magpie> AFTER TRANSFERRING THAT IS. :)

<magpie> NO, I JUST HAD A BOX THAT CAME APART SO I USED IT

<Tarotmama> lol

<magpie> YOU COULD USE MICROSCOPE SLIDES

<magpie> AND SOLDER THE EDGES FOR THAT LOOK

<Tarotmama> you planned that for instructional purposes

<magpie> UHHH, YEAH

<Tarotmama> lolo

<Dorothy> OH yes the slides would be good

<Dorothy> Could present them in the case then

<magpie> RIGHT, AND THEY CAN TAKE THE HEAT OF AN OVEN TOO

<Dorothy> Yay!

<magpie> SO, TO RECAP, SIMPLY PAINT ON THE GLASS MEDIUM, LAY ON YOUR IMAGE, DRY OVERNIGHT, BAKE AT 275 (BOX) OR 300 (SLIDE) AND WASH OF THE PAPER BACKING

<magpie> VOILA!

<magpie> HOW EASY IS THAT??

<Phyl> Even I can do that one

<Dorothy> Easy peasy

<magpie> PRETTY MUCH

<Tarotmama> would a photo work with this?

<Janet> all except that waiting thang

<magpie> MAYBE

<magpie> DEPENDS ON THE EMULSION USED

* Dorothy slaps Janet around a bit with a wet fish

<Janet> a photo scanned and then printed, or copied would work

<magpie> OH YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I USED

<magpie> A VINTAGE POSTCARD THAT I COLOR COPIED

<Tarotmama> inkjet?

<Tarotmama> or laser?

<Judy> does it have to be fresh?

<magpie> I'VE USED THAT TOO, LOOK ON THE ATELIER PAGE AT THE GLASS BOX WITH IMAGES

<magpie> DON'T THINK SO JUDY

<pmstamper> great thing about copies is original can be used again and again.

<magpie> YEPPERS

<Judy> ty

<magpie> WE LOVE SCANS AND COPIES

<Jambalaya> ingred, you can run over a bit if you like

<Phyl> thank you so much for this class it was super

<magpie> DO I NEED TO

<magpie> ANY MORE QUESTIONS???

<Janet> where do we buy the glass boxes? :)

<Phyl> lol

<magpie> I'M WORKING ON IMAGE TRANSFERS TO STYLE STONES NEXT

<cak> cool

<magpie> SEE JANET, YOU SHOULD HAVE USED THOSE IN THE SCAVENGER HUNT

<cak> with the same "solvent"?

<magpie> GLASS BOXES ARE IN BITS & BOBS I THINK

<AnnD> sounds good!

<magpie> I'M TRYING THAT AND ACRYLIC MEDUIM AND OTHER STUFF TOO

<magpie> I CAN TELL YOU THE BLENDER PEN ALMOST WORKS BUT NOT REALLY

<Judy> Thanks for class, Ingred! It was great

<magpie> I ALSO WANT TO GET SOME LASERTRAN AND WORK WITH THAT!

<magpie> THANKS JUDY!!

<julie> thanks Ingred, these are great!

<Dorothy> I've tried lasertran on metal

<magpie> SORRY SOME OF YOU COULDN'T GET TO THE PAGE

<magpie> I'LL LEAVE IT UP FOR A WHILE

<pmstamper> thanks Ingred. You have inspired me to give this a try.

<magpie> DOES IT WORK DOT?

<Janet> thanks again for the class! I'm inspired again!

<burningru> Your samples are great

<Dorothy> Yes very well

<magpie> COOL!!

<magpie> ok, now i'm not yelling anymore

<AnnD> I've enjoyed my first lesson. Wanna do it now!

<Jambalaya> NEXT EVENT IS IN #wildfrog

<magpie> the key thing is to experiment

<Dorothy> Thanks Ingred

<magpie> and know your first ones are not going to be perfect

<AnnD> Thank you

<cak> Good advise magpie!

<Tarotmama> ingred?

<magpie> just play and enjoy and try anything you can think of

<magpie> yepp?

<cak> Thank you so much--I love this type of thing (a license to steal!)

<Tarotmama> i belong to an inkjet transfer yaqhoo group

<magpie> verry cool

<Tarotmama> if you'd like the url, I'll give ot

<magpie> you can transfer with fusible web with an ink jet

<magpie> super cool!

<Dorothy> Bye all

<magpie> bye Dot!

<AnnD> Bye and thanks

<Tarotmama> there is a LOT of info on diff. transfers there

<magpie> send me the url to my email addy

<Tarotmama> which is?

<magpie> thievingmagpie@mindspring.com

<Tarotmama> k

<magpie> thanks!

<Tarotmama> not everyone has a color copier to use or can afford it

<magpie> oh, definitely not

<cak> have fun magpie and thanks again!

<magpie> a good tip though is to look for office depot coupons for cheap-o color copies

<Tarotmama> yes

<magpie> they do have sales on 'em!

<magpie> weird huh?

<Tarotmama> but i live 2 hours from the nearest one

<magpie> oh man!

<Tarotmama> hence, inkjet copies or bust

<Tarotmama> lol

<magpie> sometimes the tones used in color copies can produce very different results

<magpie> we should have a color copy image swap and send you a bunch to play with1

<Tarotmama> yes, true

<Tarotmama> well, my thing is, I am using pics of black people from long ago

<Tarotmama> most folks don't have those to swap

<magpie> Maybe I'l host one if i ever git my act together!

<magpie> hmmm, i wonder if i do

<magpie> most of mine are white or asian, as they are from san francisco mostly

<Tarotmama> everyopne here will tell you I'm fierce about this

<magpie> if i have any i'll send you a scan

<Tarotmama> lol

<Tarotmama> i found a stash from SF from before the 06 earthquake

<magpie> yeah, i got lots of asian pics, but most people dig the 20;s era Japanese ladies

<magpie> cool! love old SF stuff

<Tarotmama> well, see you on the flip side

<magpie> hey, my dad collect old San Diego and old west images, and i'll bet he has some "non-white" stuff I could swipe.

<magpie> Bye for now
