oh cool
do you have horse names yet...

They're not so difficult to come up with. A lot of them are in the script in any case.

Int modren technology wonderful!

Done one. Bit monochrome - I can't make the colours work in either gif or bmp I wanna do pink and lemon!

When I pasted the copied GIF into Paint, I got a monochrome image in spite of a colour palette. I converted it to a Black and White image (Image tab, select attributes then B+W radio button) and saved that. I loaded it back, converted it back to a colour image and then it was fine - I could use the colour palette.

It coarsened the outline a little bit. I didn't worry too much about that, since B seems to prefer coarse outlines anyway...

Full colour one now on its way ...

Mol

... and another 8 ...



I *love* colouring in.

"...B seems to prefer coarse outlines anyway..."

OK MB, I'll send you a course outline tomorrow. I might have a go at a horse as well.

are you all c&p the image?
you can right-click it and save it as a .bmp image
then open the image in paint
and the colours work very well

Well I'm game, already done one in fact.

I'll be using photoshop though as I don't have a clue how to use mspaint - and I have a mac anyway.

Think I'll give this a try. Sounds like fun!

It *is* fun.

B, how many have you got now?

Sending a few.

I've got about 85 now. I think I could probably manage with 150 total.

B

Just sent a few, my son did some so they may be a bit mad. He's had fun though, so you may get more later.

I'm not sure I can use the one that looks like an Argyle sweater. You might have to encourage him to err towards the simple rather than the fancy.

B

He was very proud of that one

sent you a few

I've sent one - I think. Not sure if it's what you want, I'm not very artistic, and my ancient laptop nearly gave up under the strain. But I've tried!

PaperKid's been complaining about being bored, so I'll try to get her going on some
