Just thought this deserves it's own thread. I'm producing a large condolence card for Gramp's family, using a high resolution version of the Photoshopped image I made with 'GRAMPS' spelled out in the crowd banners (from the Wigan play-off semi) - ashdownranger.co.uk/gramps-making-a-difference.htmlI'd like to make it from all Gramps' friends at QPRReport - if you would like to be included on the card, please post here any or all of the following: • Your QPR Report username • Your real name • Your signature • A personal message (not too long please...) Would be nice to get as many names on as possible. I will post an image of the final card in this thread when sent.

This is great of you. thanks.
I imagine there are a lot of people who don't post - or even use this board - who might also wish to send their condolences. If any ideas..,

Thanks for the messages - the card artwork is underway.
Some have also sent me their signatures by PM - makes it a bit more personal.
If you'd like to include your handwritten name/signature you can either post a scan on this post or PM me - or just write it in black ink on white paper and photograph it with your phone and I'll retouch it to make it usable on the card.

Deadline...? When will this Card "close" ? I would like to send it before the funeral. I think Bushman said he would post when that would be(?) - I'd imagine I'd post it at least 2 days before then.

Ashdown,
I assume that the info from my PM is enough, or would you prefer it on this thread?
