(housekeeping questions)

Are downloads still working?
Did you find that the last batch of papers worked (or didn't work) for download? I just don't want to upload a whack of new papers until I know that it's working well for you all. :o)


(sorry, bad photo. I'd give anything for a dash of sunshine!)

Are all of these sizes too much?
I feel like this is boring as all get out, for some of you, but quite a few of you send email requests for these other sizes, so should I keep it up? Is there a size you'd rather see?

PDF trouble?
Are the working for you? If the PDF gives you a hard time, please just wait a bit & ignore the "drawing error" and click save as to download despite the warning. It should work (I'm still working on that new way of sharing PDFs).

Last but not least, a big shout out: These map papers are made with some maps shared by the lovely Karen a.k.a. The Graphics Fairy. Please click the maps images, if you'd like to visit her posts with those maps:

(I used the red one in black & white. She has many more maps here as well).


Hope you can have some fun with these!

P.S.
Thank You so much for liking my goofy Dear John letter to Wordpress. 'Misery loves company!' I found it so cathartic to rant and rave and giggle. :-D Your suggestions for host sites were fantastic, but I think Mr. Flickr is still the one for me, since I'm already paying for him (wait that sounds bad! ...Mr. Flickr is a kept man). ;o)

hiyah mel!!
hun, I love your papers, they are always totally awesome. I downloaded the 12x12 one and have been busy making a little card with it ( i like the 12x12 ones, I play around with size in my psp but love to print on a borderless setting so they cover all of my A4 pieces of cardstock!!
need to finish my card and get it posted!
huge hugs Lou xxx

Hi Mel. I tested all the PDF files and all worked great for me except for the PDF Light A2 version which gave the drawing error message and wouldn't load at all! Strange isn't it but I don't know why just that one was a problem. Like Loopylou, I usually just print the standard size sheet and cut what I want from the sheet anyway - I think you spoil us too much!

Thank you so much for these great desighns :-)

BTW, Will these be available all the time ?

I like these papers very much. The downloads worked fine after I figured out I HAD to open them to 'save as' in the size I wanted....otherwise I just got the thumbnail size.

Mel, It is amazingly generous of you to share these graphics. . .and in so many sizes! I haven't had any trouble clicking to enlarge, then right clicking to save. I saved a variety, but only because I'm greedy and graphics-crazy! One 12x12 would probably be enough for me. I could easily go into a simple program like PrintShop and crop, shrink or lighten, but I want it all! You are too sweet! Thank you!

S said...

These are beautiful, thanks!

Chris said...

I would Like to Echo Everyone in their Gratitude for You Amazing Generosity and Consideration!
I agree with Suzi 'Greedy & Graphics Crazy' :) (which is me too!)
I am comfortable with paintshop and pageplus for manipulating digital art, So one size is fine for me.
However,I would not want You to change what You do on my account,not everyone is as computer savy as me.
Thank You for Sharing Your Beautiful Creativity!

Thanks for the shout out Mel!!! Your digis are beautiful!!
