Hmmm. Well, I've been trying for a long time to decipher the text on the back of Rachael's photo, but I've had no luck. I've asked a few other people, but they've had no luck either. Does anyone have a good idea of what it says?

That's even clearer..<BR><BR>Deckard - I e-mailed you a JPG of the text with everything but the "ink" stripped out. I don't have an online spot to post and link it. Would you mind putting it in a reply post?

Thanks for posting it for me....<BR><BR>I just opened it in PhotoShop, selected the background with a tolerance of about 30, and started selecting away. Then I bumped up the contrast and removed a few stragglers manually.<BR><BR>(I don't know how much help it is, though).<BR><BR>- Ben<BR><BR><font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: BenMund on 2001-09-03 21:46 ]</font>

Thanks - I really ought to have tried that myself.<BR><BR>I think the biggest problem with all the images is the actual hand-writing - it's terrible! Perhaps that was deliberate and the whole thing is meaningless...
