[accessibleimage] Fwd: Re: Reubens picture


Lisa,
Wow. Interesting. I'd love to see it. Maybe someday. (I've been needing an
excuse to go to Europe.)

I've had really good results with solarplate. It's really easy to use and
relatively quick -- especially with a black & white image like (I assume)
you're using.
Make an overhead transparency of your image, expose the solarplate (about 4
minutes under ultraviolet light OR 5-8 minutes in direct sunlight) rinse
the
plate and let it dry.

I'm guessing you could make the transparency on a regular photocopier -
though you might need to monkey with the settings a bit. Solarplate has at
least as much relief as Braille paper - maybe more - and it's on metal
plate
so it's durable.

Have a nice day.
