Thanks! I know it’s spelled wrong. I was going to fix it, but it kind of drives some people crazy so I thought I would leave it… Hehehe. It’s for the Red Penners out there. I can send you the jpg and you can print it for noncommercial use. And I will add the “c” if you like… Send me an email mmacmeekin@yahoo.com

Sure. I will send you an email.

Brilliant!
I would also love this jpeg to display in my office. Would you be willing to send it to me so that I can print it out as a poster?
It should be in my Dropbox…. Here’s the link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/vl44o9z3cq8xfp2/AADhYmOEUTb8PdGJiSXc8ny5a?dl=0
