order different checks tonight and found this sight and I couldn’t
believe that you can now have up to four (4) of your favorite photos on your
checks, and that they take up the <u>entire</u> check!!  So the checks
that I’ll be getting in a week or two will have pictures of Teddi, <st1:City

on the checks right.  I tried using pictures with them leaning or facing towards
the right side of the picture, but their faces get cut off by the dollar amount
box, so left facing dogs (or kids if you want) or ones that you can zoom in on
