I asked it to print the PDF, and it did nothing for several minutes, then printed the first page, but missing the right-hand side for some reason. I had another go, but didn't get anywhere with that, either. It might have been a problem at my end, I really don't know.<br /><br />Thankee! I've had that blue rod lying about for a long while now, so just had to use it. I am quite tempted to follow your biro version if I make any more, though. I use the Original Source range of shower gels, and they have a load of very suitable colours in that, too: http://www.originalsource.co.uk/ I rather like the idea of the liquid having an air bubble or two, as you say - it adds a nice visual kink to things!Peter Ballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07151357767975663350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6193341385872999900.post-42513658447054277842012-04-27T09:55:42.204+01:002012-04-27T09:55:42.204+01:00Thanks for the nod Peter, can I ask why the .pdf d...Thanks for the nod Peter, can I ask why the .pdf didn't work, that way I can try and fix it. It was just a stop gap version until I did it proper, too many people were interested so I wanted to get it out so folk could play around. I think Turiya64 has his illuminated version nearly complete.<br /><br />I like your choice of neon rod, my gel filled BiC pens have somehow started to evaporate or something as the air bubbles I'd left seem to be getting bigger. Still if I turn it upside down for half an hour and then play with it right side up it's a neat effect to have your terrain actually move over the course of a game as the bubble floats back up to the top. I've also just filled a Prism Cannon crystal with yellow Johnson's Baby Shampoo but got a small piece of Blu-Tac which I was using as a sealant, floating in the centre of it, ha, ha!<br /><br />Keep on keeping on, good luck with your efforts.40kaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12763647828123242837noreply@blogger.com
