Hi All

Has anyone tried the glass photo stands which Coralgraph are selling? I've only tried one but it hasn't come out too well even though I followed the directions to the letter. The picture looked very faded.

I was hoping that Paul would have had a go and would be posting one of his extremely useful videos

I bought some before christmas and had a go tonight. It look very cool and hardly anything can be seen through the glass. if you flip glass over the back is visible and quite vivid but not perfect. but through the glass - hardly any image as you can see below :/

Don't mirror print your image because you are meant to look through the glass at the image and not the White sub side

@ funkey monkey,

That should not make any difference whether it`s mirrored or not

If they're anything like the glass clocks they take a lot longer to cook than suggested by suppliers.

@nash the first two I did with the image mirrored looked crap and dull, the ones I did after with the image not mirrored and looking at the image through the glass on the non White side came out perfect with the time upped to 240 seconds and firm presure, also the non printing side of the glass has a bevel edge.

i didn't mirror it and as you can see this is view through the glass and is pants. i used medium pressure for 300sec.

Justin, they are nothing like glass clock. coating is different and is glossy! (?)
