Temporary Tattoos to Apply Graphics. Really

I've seen lots of discussions about trying to resolve the problems of getting graphics onto rice paper and applying it to boats. After lots of rice paper experimentation with no great results, I stumbed across a temporary tattoo. Just for kicks, I applied it to a bare strip of wood, glassed over it and it worked and looked great. I had a specific design though, which I had electronically, that I wanted to put on my boat - that problem was solved when I found www.zoodog.com. They will create an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of temp tattoos (with as many images of a single design will fit on the page) for just $19.99. I thought a small price to pay to not have to keep fussing with the rice paper. I know it sounds crazy, but it worked really well. Hope it helps someone else...
