They are the Quadra Gymsacs from Pencarrie, 100% polyester, I presume they are very similar. I think I will try a couple of mouse matts to lift the image area up a bit. Oh yes, I have had a couple of meltdownds already, drawstrings and corners!! What settings did you use Adam?

Would you also recommend a teflon pillow? I have tried some mouse mats but dont want an edge to show, never used the pillows.
