Does the post card look like a Stamp? When you say half moons are you talking about the border around the ship?

This is another sign I made for our door! I used the neat postcard site that was posted on this thread. Connie

Just making sure you all have seen the T-shirt thread. All these designs can be used to make door signs too! And vise-versa Wouldn't it be fun to have a door sign and matching family t-shirts! Oh lordy, what have we all started here!

I always have at least one t-shirt that matches one or two of my door signs. It was funny on our first cruise, my sister had trouble finding our stateroom one day, she had on one of the t-shirts I made that matched one of the door signs. One of the CM's pointed to my sister and said, "Your cabin is down this way." The CM could see that the t-shirts my sister was wearing, matched the sign on her door, LOL!!!

Did you leave a post providing a link from this thread over on their thread? Catch my saying? Just wondering....

I took a look at the t-shirt thread and they've got great ideas as well. There's over 100pages so off I go to do more reading ....I mean cleaning.

Yes, I did a link on that thread too (at least I think I did...it was early this morning!) I'll double check tonight.

Sorry if I am not posting this correctly. Has anyone ever made a bumper sticker or magnet with clip art? Where do you get the paper/magnetic stuff?
We are driving from Missouri to WDW in Sept. and would love to create my own bumper magnet for the trip.
Thanks!

DON'T DO IT! LOL The magnet paper I use (Avery from Walmart) is NOT strong enough to stay on a moving car. I used the magnet paper to put DS's honor roll bumper sticker on the car. It must have fallen off because it was gone a couple days after I put it on.

Car washes will also take 'em off--you'll find loads of the troop support ribbons there too.

For everyone who wants to learn how to post pics, I decided, instead of sending out PMs every time, to just post the instructions here. Now we can just refer people to this post in the future!

Okay, this CAN be complicated but doesn't need to be... as long as I break it down step by step. Not that you're dumb... just so I'm clear!

1) You can upload your photos to a photo hosting site. I use www.photodump.com. Any site like this will do. It's a photo hosting site. At the top of the page it says "Welcome to PhotoDump", and you click there to register to use the site (it's free).

2) Once you log in, you can upload the photos. You do so by clicking on the link on the left hand side.

3) Leave the top dropdown box as is.

4) Go to image file #1. Click on "browse".

5) This opens up a box where you can browse the files saved onto your computer. You'll need to know where you saved the images to on your computer. I'd recommend somewhere easy so you can remember it.

6) When you found the file, doubleclick on it. This will close the box and send you back to the "image file #1" page on photodump.com.

7) Click upload! Don't mess with anything; the icon in the upper right hand corner will show the page is working to upload.

8) When the file has uploaded, the page will refresh and show the picture has uploaded.

9) Copy the Filename web address starting with the "http" and ending with the "jpg".

10) Open a SECOND browser window (open up Netscape or Internet Explorer or whatever you use to surf the web).

11) Log onto the DIS boards and go to the thread. Get to the page where you post your reply.

12) Paste the link you copied into the text box.

13) Repeat this process for all the images you want to post links to.

14) It's best, IMHO, to post the link to the webpage so that it doesn't take forever for the thread to load and your post isn't humongus.

Is this clear? Hope this helps!

TOTALLY AWESOME!!!

Does anyone know how big the stateroom doors are? I now have 17 door signs for our 7-night trip (since, as most of you know, we have a sign for AM, sign for PM every day plus a few signs for CC day). I think it would be fun to just add the new sign instead of taking the other(s) down. But that would mean I would need enough room for 17 door signs. I know they would probably need to be put back-to-back, but that's okay. Anyone know the dimensions?

By the way, here's a new sign (thanks to Sandy's posting that postcard):

Thanks!

gret sign

what I would do is call disney cruise line direct they will def. be able to tell you how big the door is..

Okay, NOT at all happy with the magnetic paper I bought. I purchased it from http://www.decalpaper.com/magnetic-decalpaper.html. I put it in the printer, and I've selected heavyweight paper, photo paper, or premium photo paper options because I was having problems. It prints fine until the last 2 inches of the sheet. At that point, there are smears of color - the color is darkened and if there's a shape in that section, it looks funny. For example, Mickey's eye isn't the same shape as the other one, and it's not white - it's cloudy gray. Grrr. Anyone know how to fix this? I just wasted $40, and I'm responsible for making the door signs for our DIS group. I don't want to spend more money, but I want to get magnetic paper that works. The only paper I've used that HAs worked is Avery, and you pay $8 for 5 sheets. I bought 35 sheets for $40, so at that rate, I'd be paying $56 on top of the $40 I wasted. What a crock. Grrrr.
