Anyone able to assist with Millepie-like designs?

[bumblebee123]

We are going on our first ever cruise - the Magic leaving in early August - and are soooo excited! I'm only now discovering the wonderful door magnets and would LOVE to personalise our door for our two young boys - Arun who will have just turned seven, and Max who turns 4 on day 2 of the cruise. The thing is I've seen some designs by Millepie that would be absolutely wonderful - the personalised Pirate Mickey (swinging on a rope) ears (one for Arun and one for Max) and the Disney Magic image in the middle of the life ring but have absolutely no idea how to personalise them with the dates of the cruise (August 7-18 2010 and 'Tranter family' or 'The Tranters' ) I also really like the individual letters with Mickey and his gang in their sailor outfits (Max) and the Pirate Mickey individual letters (Arun). Millepie is on holiday and I dont know if there are any blanks anywhere or whether anyone is able to help - or indeed whether that would be really wrong in Millepie's absence. I want to do everything right. Is anyone able to offer any advise please? I don't have a graphics programme like photoshop. Any advise would be HUGELY appreciated. Thank you in advance - you all seem such lovely people giving up your valuable time so freely. It's wonderful of you.

I made the Mickey Pirate Head for you using Milliepie's DISign and put it in my 4shared file. You didn't give a lot of detail so I wasn't sure what color or style of font to use. So I went with a color in Mickey's outfit and choose a pirate style font. If you like them...save them as I clean out my photobucket weekly.

If you want something else on the Pirate Mickey Head like the "disney" font and/or color. These are super easy to personalize. If you have MS Word there is a thread that teaches you how to insert images into word then put a textbox over them to personalize with names, etc. Here is the thread:

You can use the same thread to download the individual cruise letters that Milliepie made and insert them into word to spell your boys names. The thread will also teach you how to "crop" and "resize" if you need to remove some of the white from around the letters to get the spacing just right for your boys names.

One more thing...change from original request...if your boys like Pirates...I have "pirate certificates" in my 4shared file in the link in my signature. Look in the "drivers license - certificate" file.

Oh Dolly thank you sooo sooo much! I didnt think it would be possible to get any more excited about the cruise - but you have just made me so. Am going to keep these secret from the boys and put them on the door before they come down to the room. Thank you so much for giving up your time like this - absolutely amazing!

PS forgot to say thank you re the link to the drivers license - my boys are real boy boys and anything to do with pirates and captain hook so they will adore these! Huge cyber hug thank you!
