dayglow Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I've tried to make the photo embed hurricanes and have a very hard time getting them with no air bubbles in them. How do all of you get them soooo perfect? I've only had one come out just right. Please someone help me, they are the ones asked for the most here in these parts. Thank you.

YooperCandles Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Try doing a search for hurricanes on the board. If you dont get enough there, I would try the archives. I have found so much awesome information about hurricanes on this board that I couldnt believe it.HTH - Pam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topofmurrayhill Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I'll throw in a couple of tips that are especially important in connection with bubbles.Print your photo and leave it laying out hours before you intend to use it. The printer inks have to be bone dry or they will release tons of fine bubbles. Then soak the photo in hot hurricane wax until it's fully saturated and stops releasing air. After that you can use it immediately or just take it out until you're ready. It will be like a piece of photo wax paper.Now go do the rest of your research as per Sharyl55's suggestion and good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
