Hello Alisa, thanks
yeah sorry about me going AWOL what with Christmas and now learning DAZ full time I'm sorta keeping my head down, (but saw this and had to have a bit of fun) I was gonna do a day a week on DAZ but thought what the heck I need to get down and crack that whip! lol. Problem with that is that I am not making anything in the meantime, but think it's best this way (a day a week will take forever and I will forget what I did the previous week)
Makes sense Dawn...I find that I need to do things regularly for a week or two to embed the learning.
Posting here is fine. I still have to check with Alisa how to go about setting up a thread we can vote in but I'll transfer the images over to there so people can see them without all the conversation to make it easier to vote.
Edited to add: I love your stamp. Reminiscent of British stamps with the queen on them...
Lol...nice catch I'll fix it I keep forgetting Americans have the date back to front. Edited to add...silly me forgot I had already fixed this...my brain is seriously in neutral today.Thats 2nd October 2016 to me,
Great idea folks, just reading through and i will post mine.
edit - lol POST mine! get it!

Thanks Pen and Lyne,
Yes the great British Stamp, I looked at the stamps and coins over the year and thought this era was the prettiest, think she has her crown in the others. this seems to be the silhouette they use for the small head when they put other pics on the stamp, you see it in white in the corners.

We still have the basic head one that's the standard, the picture ones are usually commemorative or celebratory like christmas.
A piece of trivia for ya, the queen faces right on the coins and her father faced left, the heads alternate in each direction on each new monarch, so whoever is after Lizzy will be facing left (personally if it's Charles I thinks he should face forward so we can see his ears
Think this would make a great stamp

Love the image too! You don't think they'll skip Charles totally? I have seen stamps with her father's head on so I knew that they faced different directions I didn't know that they alternated though. My sister has a stamp collection now but growning up it was my brother who collected stamps. I still remember helping him to soak them off the envelopes. Having migrated from England we got lots of English stamps...
:d
You can't soak them off any more, they are self adhesive and they put a small perforation tag thing in the middle, too many people were soaking them off and then pritt sticking them down and using them again, of course I never did that, 
Not sure if they would skip him, it's been discussed in the press over the years but all speculative, I wouldn't mind seeing Charles king, I think he's fairly down to earth as the royals go (then again, his generation down all are to some degree) Even though he's in his 30's I think William is too young and wet behind the ears still. let him fly his helicopter a bit longer.
