I just may try that!!!"<BR/><BR/>Also, if you can make a stand of some sort, you could stand them on edge, so that they'd be flat, but would stand up in the vertical dimension.<BR/><BR/>That'd be good for Green Lantern hands and such. <BR/><BR/>For an Ankh, you could use two pieces. Print a gold band about an inch wide and several inches long. Cut that out, and use that as the main portion of the ankh, including the loop. Use a second section as the cross-piece. Cut slots in both pieces at the intersection, so they can fit into each other. If you do it right, the cross-piece will help the ankh stand up.<BR/><BR/>As a base, you might use the thin sheets of colored foam sold at craft stores. Just cut out a matching shape and attach the transparency film somehow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-1127056639584231782005-09-18T10:17:00.000-05:002005-09-18T10:17:00.000-05:00"Is an Emmy appearance forthcoming?"The good news ..."Is an Emmy appearance forthcoming?"<BR/><BR/>The good news is, I'm presenting the Award for "Best Use of a Nuclear Bomb as Plot Device".<BR/><BR/>The bad news is, I have to co-present with a giant red ore-crusher named "Roger".<BR/><BR/>*sigh*Scipiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16217376618860561999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-1127052930332685422005-09-18T09:15:00.000-05:002005-09-18T09:15:00.000-05:00Zara--You know, I actually thought of using Icehou...Zara--You know, I actually thought of using Icehouse pieces (which are very attractive).
