Mark,
These look great. Can I ask what process you used? PhotoGrav? Speed and Power?

hi mike, we use photoshop elements and photograv. our settings are 17 power with 30 speed for a vy-tek 4496 with a 60 watt laser. we also used our sd-black granite. one of our concerns had been if we lasered images of african-americans(or anyone with a darker skin tone), how well would they come out? well, we are very happy with the results. thanks for your input.
normally with our sd-black granite we recommend, 25 power & 66 speed for your laser.
thanks again, mark

Mark,
could you send me a price sheet of your granite? so far we've only tried the black marble from lasersketch...But the pictures you guys are getting look better than what I've been able to get. Anyway to get a sample piece to try out?
