This new software sucks!



OK, I guess you cannot embed a youtube video in this software.

Hey Jim,

I don’t have the time to figure the so called “new” software out either.

Glad you liked the notes.

You will have to admit she has aged gracefully.

In a few weeks she will be 90 years old. The tabloids have been killing her off for years now. Must suck being killed by tabloids years before you actually croak.

The Queens image has to be one of the most prolific in modern currency. When you consider the countries of the British Empire (politically incorrect, I know) that used her portrait the number of notes has to be staggering. Jim61's Diamond Jubuliee 1953-2012 note can attest to her longevity. You have to wonder who will take over the monarchy when she dies or steps down?

Did you do this?? Can you tell me how you did it?

Sorry I didn't make it... I think they used some sort of gif photo editing program.

As part of my world banknote collection I've been working on having ONE example note for every different portrait to appear on a banknote of the British Empire (I know, as Danny says it's probably politically incorrect). Daunting task, it's known as a work in progress that is still progressing.

I too have been at this for a while as well now as is daunting as others have stated as well.

However, I only go after the portraits I like and do like your
4 shillings note.
