    damn, again, i deleted my browser cache, as i do so often, so right now i cannot link images or do a new line or edit my post. at least unless my stupid firefox decides to no longer rely on cache files that dont exist anymore.

    That upper case C is PERFECT, but I'm having trouble getting a good crop as it's a little out of focus on the bottom. Do you have any other pictures? Thanks!

    This one is more in focus - are you able to rotate? if not, let me know and I can flip it around or take a better picture. :)

    yep, thats it :)

    this link shows how he finally marketed it and made use of the fact that he has several versions of each letter:

    some strategic ideas: i wouldnt differenciate between upper case and lower case letters. but i would look outside of ball pythons, that will make it easier and add some more colors. like green or red. retics may be a good source for things like W, X, Z, V.

    this may be a really rewarding project, once you have enough material to spell things.
