Something missing at my end. I tried a number of images and it did nothing.

They kept telling me they couldn't display my image but then it appeared and very small.

Oh well....

Nice site - I tried a few images - Will be particularly useful with the measurement tool and South West Africa overprints.

Bookmarked.

LB are you selecting the correct DPI?

I tried it and it worked great for a stamp smaller than the recommended minimum resolution. Then I uploaded a second stamp with recommended 600 resolution and it rejected the upload saying that the file was unsupported. Odd, because both were identical file types except for the resolution. Never the less, I will definitely keep using the site.

Looks good!

I'll have to play with it some more to verify, but should be particularly useful for measuring stamp sizes or overprints. The perf guage-intended for U.S. stamps- does not offer enough choices for non U.S. stamps- or am I missing something?

Very cool. Thanks for posting. But I too found the perforation guide kind of limited. Are there more perf sized available besides those chosen with the < > keys?

This tool is basically set up for US Stamps so I'm not sure if there are more options. I was hoping to play with it a little more but my home PC died a horrible death last night.
