I can't tell while I'm framing it whether that one is going to work, as what I see in the viewer is not always what the camera picks up, or the siggy is so thin & light it hard to see even directly. I can only say that having the light source hit at an angle seems to work better a lot of the time.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Good! Next step in one's downfall is deciding your price range is more than you thought. It felt like crossing a threshold the first time I bought a cameo for > $100 (prices have gone up overall since then.) The bargains are hidden in the poorly described ones, where seller is clueless or just not good at crafting a listing.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
