Yep i had one too. There was a bit of coating missing in left hand corner, so it`s good for display, but not for re-sell.

I`m retailing the small for £25.00

yeah i know... i thought its bit much for thumb size piece of acrylic. And if you like me mess it up is VERY expensive!
Unfortunatly i dont know anyone who would spend this sort of money for small acrylic... They pay loads fot the photos but wold not pay much for photo gifts...

Hi all,

i managed to buy one before the samples came out, i am just getting round to try it and i have a stupid question (i have called BMS but Martin was not about to confirm the information)

my question is, what side do you print on? is it the side with the removable protective cover or is it the opposite side with solid white coating?

if it is the latter i take it that the "white" coating will absorb the ink to then show through the image, if this is the case i take it you will then need to use an image that will cover the whole of the block

i am looking to use these as awards but was hoping just to have a small logo and text on them

Andy
