Naa, the method I use doesn't lend itself to longevity, so I'd never try and sell them to others. I usually make a half or a whole sheet of one decal, so I can change it when it starts to fade (though the black on white images fade the least).

Colour me surprised! I would have thought you would have overcome some minor technicalities RC? ::013::

The limitation is the printer's ink, Dogdaze. None of it, at least at the consumer level, is ultraviolet stabilized. Even multiple coats of UV resistant clear coat won't totally prevent fading in the sun (red and yellow are the worst). If I wanted to make decent long-lived decals, I'd need to invest in some high-end equipment that negates my fundamental DIY principle: Keep It Cheap! ;D

I see we are kindred spirits ::025::

For ME, I would have to have the first image riding the last image. ) My silverback DNA is still dominant. )
