What Does YOUR DCL magnetic door sign look like? With other great tips for your sign

[taeja71]

Can you color the magnetic paper after it is printed? My color isn't working on my printer and I wondered if I could color it in with markers?

I don't see how the markers would affect the mag paper unless you have magnetic markers. Don't mind me, I've been DISing for too long! No, really try it. If you have sharpies I think those would help keep the color the best. Good luck.

taeja71 is right on, that most programs will have the option. if not, and you ca open the image with Paint (usually any jpeg files, etc) then you can simply press Ctrl+R, and when the pop up window opens leave "flip horizontal" selected... viola!

I guess that's only true if you're on a windows PC... hope one suggestion or the other works for you!

Tink2020, thanks so much for posting this. I was having such a hard time trying to figure out how to flip a floorplan of our home and your info did the trick. Thanks!

I haven't made a sign for a few days so I tried this one for Pirate Night.

Have never made a magnetic door sign before but would love to make some for our upcoming cruise in August. Does anyone have any ideas of a special door magnet I can make for my friends daughter who is getting married on the ship? I was looking for some pictures of Mickey and Minnie in their wedding outfits and really can't find any good ones. thanks. I tried to do a search here, but the search engine never works for me!

Definately go to the DISigns forum (there's a link provided on the very FIRST post of this thread). There are some wonderful wedding designs there. If you want it personalized, PM the designer and see if they'll do it for you. They are all great over there! Good luck!

Thanks so much taeja71. I will check it out. Making a door sign is all new to me. When we took the Disney cruise with Mary Kate and Ashley a few years back, the tour company had them for us. Never thought about making our own, but love looking at everyones designs here. Want to surprise my friend and her daughter with some nice wedding ones for their cabin in August.

Here's the results from typing "wedding" in the search portion of the DISigns forum. I couln't copy and paste all of them here. You'll have to do some clicking to find what you like and if you find some thing, pM the designer so that you can get the largest quality img or persoanlization. Good luck. Sure wish I was getting married, there are some beautiful designs out there.

This may sound like a silly question, but do the airlines give you a hard time about flying with these magnetic signs in your luggage? thanks.

I didn't have any problems! I did pack them in a plastic 12 X 12 envelope (available at Michaels) which I use for scrapbooking projects. Then during the cruise I used that same envelope to store my memoribilia from our trip. I also put on signs back in the envelope for our return trip.

Hi there. I sure liked your door sign. I am in the process of making door signs for our 4 staterooms. I won't copy your door sign but can I use it as a layout plan?

I just wanted to say hi because my name is Sharon. Where are you from? My family of 25 are cruising April 23-27 (on the Wonder).

Thank-you, I borrowed different images from other DISer friends & added my own touch. It was my first one,& only one. Please borrow any thing you want. I have the ship if you need it, someone sent it to me.

I'm from Delaware, the first state. There are 7 in our group.

Well, you did quite well on your first one. Congrats on a nice sign. Are you afraid it was just 'beginner's luck' so that's why you've only made one? (tee hee - I'm just teasing you) When do you set sail? If you could, will you please email the ship to me at "pepsiontherocks@hotmail.com"

Thank you for your permission and help.
