[QUOTE="lauragarnet, post: 107009, member: 105"]Thanks everybody:happy: [USER=56]@moreotherstuff[/USER] - you did wonders with that photo! [USER=106]@quirkygirl[/USER] - I've tried FaceBook, but gave up. It freezes-up and crashes my computer. [USER=29]@Ownedbybear[/USER] - Excellent question! Now that you've asked that, I'm re-examining and vacillating back and forth between under glaze or etched. The whole area inside the foot-ring is more matte and slightly rougher that the glaze outside the ring. I can't feel the marks with my finger tip, but I can feel the edges of the circle mark that contains the text with my [I]fingernail[/I], but not the text marks. So, it could be a lightly impressed mark under the glaze. [USER=201]@Pat P[/USER] - I did try rubbing it with pencil lead. It didn't work to highlight the text and make it stand out, to my disappointment. I think I will try pressing a piece of tape and see what I get. That's the only other idea I have so far.[/QUOTE]
