Ok - that's it out, cooked and cooled and it's not good so giving up on this photo mug lark for the moment and will keep going with our other mugs! MANY THANKS for ALL YOUR HELP and comments! Back to the drawing board to try to make my millions Off to cook in the other oven as some other folk around here are hungry!
Thanks again

We need to see this one through Gill! lol, we'll get to the bottom of it

Aye I hope so!
Dishes to do now! At least the Pork Steaks, Green Beans and Saute Potatoes cooked ok LOL Well there is no marks left on the plate that is so I assume the food was a success LOL

[Justin]

Did the green beans go right to the edges of the plate or did you have to leave a small space there? Were the potatoes the right shade?

[Paul]

...and did you warmed plates up first???

[Kaz]

PMSL at you lot

LOL Morning - Green beans were ok although a little over cooked - Yes I warmed the plates up first and the Potatoes were done to perfection! PMSL - thank you for your concern

Did you get any further with this Gill? Im having similar problems too. I am trying to get a photo to within 5mm of the edge, but there are a couple of spots where I get fading. I am wondering if it is un-even pressure or un-even heat in the oven I use (not using a press). Im going to try to change the way I wrap the mugs, then I am going to try to cook them a little longer, so see if this helps to encourage all the ink to "jump" onto the mug!

I have given up on the photo mugs for now but by far the best mugs were the 11oz ones from BMS and warming them certainly helped - even sitting the next mug on top of the mug that was in cooking so that it heated up the base of the mug but then I forgot (doing what a woman does best "MULTITASKING") going back to add the paper and burning my hands SO stuck to using our own artwork and got loads done in time for the airshow next week!

Cracking job - that's kind of what I do, stick to what I know and you get much more done.

Never been able to offer full wraps, dare say after a few hours testing i'd get usable results but haven't the time or loads of spare mugs to do this.
