Posted By: <b>Jason L</b><p>how did you DO that?!!<br />the print is exactly the same, even looks like it has imperfections in it!<br /><br />Edited to add:<br />You could do so much with this kind of skill...Others might include:<br />"This fairy often skipped around the bases."<br />"Blessed with fleet feet and a simple mind in the outfield, he's known as The Butterfly Chaser"

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>I tried to keep the editing tiny - because it took a little time.<br /><br />I hope people got a chuckle out of it. It was all meant in good fun.<br /><br /><br /><br />The type looks so good because the letters came from the card itself. I didn't type any in. <br /><br />If I needed and "H" I had to find an "H" and copy it. The only letter I couldn't find was the letter k in li'k'e - so I had to create that letter using other letters on the card.<br /><br /><br /><br />Here is an animation of the process.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.internetville.com/stuff/melchAnimated.gif">

Posted By: <b>Bob Lemke</b><p>Looks top me like the added sentence was painstakingly crafted by cutting and pasting individual letters from the opening paragraph,which didn't have a "k," neccessitating the need to create one.<br /><br />Good job!
