How can I tell if they are high resolution? I think it has to do with how many pixels your picture has, the more pixels, the higher the resolution. Anything greater than 3 megapixels, i would imagine would work for the postcards. not an expert, but somewhat familiar. Thanks!

They can sell a good price and you dont have to carry them on your luggage... Awesome...do you think if i budget $2-$3USD each bottle, that would be a fair price? Thanks Mora!! great idea for my OOT bag...along with chips, margarita mix and shot glass...

thanks for the info ladies. Mora, i can't read or speak spanish...do you think if I emailed the first company, they'd be able to answer me in english?

does anyone have any high resolution photos of Puerto Vallarta? I'd like to make a postcard like the cheesediva did for our guests. I think it's a great idea and i give her full credit. if you do, please PM me and I'll give you my email address. thank you ahead of time.

this is such a great idea. I'd like to do it for PV. i'll have to see if anyone has any high res photos of PV. thanks for the idea!!

does anyone know the cost per hour for shuttles or passenger bus rentals in PV? We were thinking about arranging transportation for our guests to the Rehearsal/Welcome dinner and possibly the wedding? thanks!

Oh, I also resized the hat after I pasted it into the current picture. Also used 'Free Transform' to rotate & flip to desired angle. awesome, thanks! i'll give it a try. thank you!!

Thanks Heidi!! could you give basic instructions on how you added the santa hat? if it's too complicated, i can try and play with it again tonight. Yeah! so fun!

Okay, my FI came up with a really cute idea for our holiday greeting cards. There is a picture of us on top of camels and we'd like to add a red nose on each camels nose and then santa hats on our heads. I've figured out how to add the red nose but don't know how to add a santa hat. I've found a clip art santa hat but don't know how to resize, edit it to fit our heads. Anyone a whiz at this kind of stuff?? thanks!!! here is the picture!

here are my bridesmaid dress and shoes

We are arriving May 10 staying at the westin until May 19, then off to Punta Mita until May 24th!!! cannot wait!

Welcome, PV bride here too. let us know if you have any questions.

do you know if your friend can ship to the USA?

good stuff thanks!! I swear, i got so many ideas...just don't know where to stop! I guess it's better than not having any ideas...

great job! i only wish I was just as talented.

that's a great website, thank you..lots of stuff.

Really, cute..i'm looking for something like that also.

I know I was watching for its opening to be announced b/c we wanted to honeymoon there...won't be finished in time. bummer.

I think it's super cool...just not doable in Puerto Vallarta...oh well, maybe for my fiance's 40th birthday in a few years!!

This is the pantsuit my Mom picked. She doesn't have a pic of the dress yet. Any thoughts? I know what you mean, my BM dresses are tangerine and we have chocolate brown, kiwi green and cream as the other colors. So I wanted to stay within the brown family. I ordered her this dress in two different colors. and I love the copper rose color--of course, she doesn't. She likes the blue, which is nice but I'm afraid it may clash...maybe not, just want her to be comfortable, likely be in the high 80s...
