I tried these today and am just thrilled with the result!! I started with okay pictures (my digital camera is several years old so even the highest quality pictures are kinda grainy) and used my VERY limited photo editing skills (rotating, cropping), pasted the photos I wanted to use into Word (so I could fit several on one sheet) and printed (with my HP Deskjet 960c - not known for printing great pictures, I don't think). Hmm, jury was still out. Into the oven they went. Wow!! The result is amazing. The shrunk pictures are so clear, you can really see all the detail of Colin's face. Even clearer than the digital pics that I started off with!
I did follow the instructions pretty closely (lightened the pictures, then improved the contrast) - they were't all intuitive, but pretty straightforward and well spelled out.
I really recommend these for holiday ornaments, keychains, whatever - such a cool gift for grandparents, aunts and uncles! So fast and easy!
I know that the package of plastic is pretty pricey, but when you figure that you can get 3-4 pictures per sheet, it ends up being reasonable.
