Well, I have no idea who worked on it from the stamps.com side, but I'm the one who did the Cushing's version.

So... you're welcome :blink:

This IS way cool!!!

Thanks again, Mary, and I, too, am glad that the 2.00 will go to help with the boards since I've not yet won the lotto, found that special exceedingly wealthy man or found other sources of income to help otherwise :rolleyes: (again, I just :rolleyes: :) the wacko icon)

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think these stamps can be purchased from the post office. I don't think they are actual USPS stamps. However, they have been approved for use, by the USPS according to what I have read. (see below)

"Approved for domestic use by the United States Postal Service, stamps are sold in sheets of 20 and are available in seven denominations. Each stamp measures 1.90" x 1.40" and the featured image measures 1.10" x 1.10".

It looks like they are available for $18.99 per sheet of 20 -.37 cent stamps.
from CafePress. Mary posted that $2.00 of each purchase will go the the running of these boards and the rest of the websites.

To order click here:

I hope this information is correct... If not, then Mary please correct it when you return... :)
