They nameplates are sized to print on 12" x 18" photo "poster" at Costco. Just in case you want to try again... :-)

These were great - but I couldn't use them. I wanted to use them as name tags. I wasn't able to seperate them and use them like I had hoped. So I was dissapointed.

Great...one small detail....the larger two digit numbers are cut off a little in the circle. No biggie..they are printed and laminated-ready to go!

These are fantastic for my detective theme. I even made them smaller by printing multiple pages on one sheet of paper. Thanks!

I'm disappointed that the "evidence of learning" sign has the word "of" split between two lines! That sign really clinched the purchase for me but was very disappointing to receive!

Michele Osinski (TpT Seller)
I'm sorry you were disappointed in the design of the bulletin board header! :-(
With two long words ("evidence" and "learning") there wasn't really another way to space it. My copy that I have up in my room was printed in the same manner; I sent it to Costco as a 12" x 18" file, and cut it in half, lengthwise. After I trimmed, taped, and laminated it, the seam in the middle is not noticeable.
In my defense, the preview available DOES show the layout exactly "as is".
I hope you can make it work for your classroom! Michele

Since you've already bought the set, I'll just send you the files. I'll send the "dude in the trenchcoat", too. :-) I just normally don't send the files since most people can't use a .psd file.
You'll just need to save them as .jpgs before you try to print.
Send me your email address, and I'll be happy to forward them on.

I did not realize these were not editable before I bought them - phooey!! I really love what you did. Is there a way you can send a blank template of that cute briefcase?

]I created them using Photoshop. Do you have software that supports .psd files?

MrsAugustine re: Detective Theme: Headers and Signs for Bulletin Boards
Why is the "evidence of learning" sign splitting the word "of" between two lines?!

mrspmbes re: Student Number Magnets - Fingerprints (Detective Theme)
What is the zipfile related to this item?
July 14, 2012
Michele Osinski (TpT Seller)
I'm not sure what you are asking. Are you unfamiliar with what a .zip file is? If so, it is a "compressed" file that allows several files to be sent as one. You will need software to "un-zip" or extract the files. Most newer PCs come with this software.
In this case, there are 6 4" x 6" "photos", each having 6 numbers on it (#1 - #6, #7 - #12, etc.).
I hope this helps. If I did not answer your question, please let me know!
Thanks,
Michele

No, they're not. Sorry! They are .jpg (image) files that can be directly uploaded to Costco, or wherever you print your photos.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
I started in a K/1 combo class in 1985, and although I loved my own children when they were 5, I don't like other people's 5 year olds. :-) On the other hand, I ADORE 10 year olds. 2011 - 2012 will be my 26th year of teaching 5th grade (with a few 4/5 and 5/6 combos thrown in there). I may move up to high school history some day soon, but for now, I'll keep loving on my preteens!
MY TEACHING STYLE
"Guide on the side rather than a sage on the stage"
