Jim Alfredson Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Wow. Sneaky little bastards! Wonder why it won't save. Hmm... I'll crack this one yet. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Do tell when you figure it out. I tried the same thing, with the same results. Sneaky bastards, indeed!!! Quote
brownie Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 The French Post Offices issued last year a series of six stamps on jazz greats (Louis Armstrong, Sidney Bechet, Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Stephane Grapelli and Michel Petrucciani) by Raymond Moretti, an artist I don't like much. Couldn't find images of them. Quote
brownie Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 The Django Reinhardt stamp that b3-er just dug up is another Raymond Moretti stamp that was issued before his 6-stamp series I mentioned. Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 BWA HA HA HA HA! So, did you have to do a screen-capture -- and then edit the image down with some editor??? Or was there some other trick???? Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 BWA HA HA HA HA! So, did you have to do a screen-capture -- and then edit the image down with some editor???
