Argh! Where were you last week when I needed you?! Hope my amateur effort turns out OK. Will bear it in mind for future

Is it worth doing a thread in LIG as well just in case people don't pop into Photography?

Great idea! The Xmas card one especially sounds fab

Something they've done at my friends LO's school was to turn a drawing that the child had done (with an Xmas theme) into a Christmas card, and then sell them in packs of 10. They look fantastic, and has raised a fair bit for the school. Might this be another idea?

Might be worth someone popping a post there to signpost this thread, but Damz asked for the main thread to be stickied in Photography.

Fanburluddytastic idea.

I have no time this year to make our usual Christmas cards and it would be lovely to send some highly edited pics of the children Christmassyfied as cards.

Request
I have a pic of both children driving Alex's toy car. In no damned photo are either of them looking at the camera at the same time. Would it be possible to take a face off another pic and make them look like they were both looking at the camera?

If that's possible, could we make it Christmassy (no idea how, add Santa hats, put a red nose on the front of the car so it looks like a reindeer etc.) Am more than open to suggestions from you more experienced / talented ladies.

If not possible, can you Christmassyfy my avatar? ETA - not my avatar, my old avatar where they're both underwater

Please do provide a guideline cost (as I appreciate that I'm asking a lot) and I'll double whatever you suggest as my donation.

Squeaker - I'll get back to you when I've had a chance to have a chat with my colleagues. But yes, we will be able to do something for you. Head transplants depend on the photographs to be honest, but we can look at it. If not, Both Spands & I have some nice templates that mean you can put two photo's on the same card.

Will get back in a little while. In the meantime, email the pics across to me so we can take a look at it. :-)

ETA: Snapfish are saying 3-7 days for Cards, so there's still time to get some printed.
