It may take a little while, but I will design more when I have spare time. Thanks for your interest and suggestions!

Fahaka one here too. Might make some really good money making the different species of puffers on them too. And then print them on shirt on cafe-express. Just a thought .

Ooh! Ooh! Shirt!!!

I think you need to rethink this. I placed it on the side of a tank, it got wet & all the ink/colors ran.

Aww really?! I will send you a replacement asap.
Mine is still nice on the side of my tank, but it hasn't gotten excessively wet. Thank you for telling me!!

Are you gonna use different ink? It's dripping green.

It's high-quality Canon inkjet ink, quite expensive. I think it's just the decal sheets...not meant to get wet...although I didn't see a warning.

Wasn't meant to go on my tank?

You might try and spray your decals with Krylon acrylic clear spray or any type of acrylic clear spray. I have put custom tranfers on coffee mugs and put them in the dish washer and they come out still looking great. The spray is not expensive and you can find it a lot of places ( Walmart ), it will cover hundreds of decals with one spray can.

Thank you Trekenk, I will check it out.
PP, the decal sheets are meant for windows, but I have one of them on my tank (as seen in the ebay picture) which has just gotten a little damp without issue. I didn't know the ink would run if it got wet. I apologize and will try to fix it.

That's cool, thanks!

All ink from ink jets will run ... try a laster printer.

good info... now i know to get a laser printer when i get one!

I like my printer a lot, prints great photographs. I'm going to try a waterproof spray for the decal.

or you can take the disk to a local printer and have them do it for you. It might turn out cheaper because the ink carts can be expensive.
