Am trying to do a sheet of lables that will print out for every one.
If you use a whole sheet 8.5"x11" of lable and cut appart and stick, or
print to plain paper and use clear tape to affix to back side of post card.
Would someone mind printing out and get back to me on how it worked? Thanks Bruce

If Anyone has designs they would like to post here feel free to!
In your drawing program it is Important to set your page SIZE TO 4" x 6"
then make your postcard design to it.
Then export the file with the following settings to your hard drive
SET Pixel SIZE 585 pixels X 400 pixels
SET COLOR TYPE as 8 bit color,
SET FILE TYPE As .jpg
SET IMAGE RESOLUTION TO 150dpi
Then click export or ok
these come out small in file size up load at image shack quickly and print out by right clicking directly on image and clicking print image option, and come out close to 4"x6" postcard size!
Then take The Exported Images and upload one at a time to image shack, after each upload copy the url address of the image, start new post post here on the forum, as soon as post window opens Click The IMG button, a dialog box opens, place cursor in it click and back space to remove anthing in it, then past and click ok.
I will usually open 2 browser windows one to imageshack and one to the forum and move back and forth between them.

Attention Avery Design pro 5 users
I just discovered that you can right click the postcard image you want to use and copy it, then go to avery design pro five open a design from scratch, look under cards select 4x6 postcard, when open past image to work space, then you can drag the image by the cornor to fill the work space, just takes a few seconds.
I have not figured out how to print two at the same time yet though, will post here when I figure it out.
Untill today I have not seen avery so will take some time to figur it out, if anyone else knows anything of this software feel free to enlighten us. Thanks Bruce
If you would like a copy of this software you can download it over here warning 55 meg file!

Here is a postcard based on the poll that everyone has supported at the Tribune
please send a couple to all 4 execs.
I hope its ok to squeeze in an extra postcard to go with this mailer and keep it going a few weeks, I made it up based on the poll over at the Chigaco Tribune, the results are impressive and show that the Nielsons ratings are out of date, so I hope all can include this card with the next few special mailings, it may very well get the executives attention!
The Voters made this postcard possible Thank You All!

If anyone feels like posting comments about the mailings fell free to do so here as every time someone posts it raises this thread back to the top of new posts and makes it easyer for new folks to find, as well as a reminder to everyone. 
Later Bruce

Excellant work, Bruce! Maybe we should print some of these to hand out at conventions?
Life is a constant series of adaptations. and I am adapting as fast as I can!

That would be ok with me, there here to help Enterprise any way they will work!
Also keep in mind that it is easy for me to make changes to transform any designs into a special themed mailer.
Heres my next couple of cards
