Here is a link to all of my wall panels used in the making of the Darkchild Saga.

Narceron, Save the images to your hard drive.Open Microsoft Word, inset the wall panels as an image and size so that the panel takes up most of the page.

Insert A4 sticker sheet into printer. Press print.


Buy large mount board - Apply sticker to maountboard.If you want a long wall join sevral stickers together, cut around stuicker with a craft knife and voila....

I'm gonna try something crazy with these.  I found a plethora of mailing labels in many sizes.  I'm thinking I'll open up an image and print it onto a sheet of labels without telling the printer that's what I'm using.  I'll have all kinds of weird-sized wall flats!  This should be ... interesting...

Well, I haven't pulled that stunt just yet... instead, I stayed up until almost 4am cropping, resizing, and generally tweaking some of these images to fit onto the mailing labels I have handy.  Peel-n-stick windows, doors, control panels, flooring, etc etc.  Then I'll trim and apply later.  Great fun!!
