What are your feelings about the stamp images being at 70%? I know, being an SU demo, I would be highly irate if SU did that to our catty. I do like the Angel Co catty, though, don't get me wrong. I have my eye on some pretty cool new sets. My demo is doing a 6 month club this year instead of a 3 month club since there probably won't be jubilee. Since she is in my stamper's 10 club, I do feel like I should support her and she has awesome ideas. In fact, we feed off each other.
The 70% image is just another change to adapt too. In the near future we will be able to print out full size images from The Angel Company Site. So we will be able to show our customers the actual size if needed. The "size it" in feature and having all of the compatible acrylic blocks listed is a big plus. The other benefit of the 70% image is that it allowed the company to keep more stamps in the catalog which is now only $4.95. The cost is a huge benefit given that another one will be coming out in 6 months. So far none of my customers have had a huge issue with the 70% change in size.

I know that when we first told that the images wouldn't be full size.. I didn't like the idea.
But now that I have seen the NEW TAC catalog....I don't mind it a bit. The one good thing that TAC did do was to add what size Acrylic Blocks you would need for the stamp set's.
So this gives me a little bit more peace about the smaller stamp size.
I really love the Catalog it's filled with Ton's of very cool Exclusive paper As well as matching 12 x 12 Cardstock, Ribbon, Embellishments and inks.
yep CTMH is 50% which is not to bad once you get used to it. I do like the 70% the size it really helps. I don't think it's going to be that big of a deal unless I have a project that I want to know the exact size for the stamp even then I make most of my projects around the image I want to use and not make the project then go find a stamp.

The other thing with CTMH's catalog it's a different size than what TAC is.
Our Catalog is 8.50" X 11" Like Standard Cardstock.
Also TAC has included the Size of Acrylic Block you will need for each Stamp set. Which is Really good!
Another thing that we did this year. And I think is Great.
They added Coordinating 12" x 12" Pattern Paper along with Cardstock, Ribbon, Hardware and which inks work best with those papers.
We are selling a lot more 12" x 12" Cardstock and pattern paper. This year.
Along with other size of Cardstock and Patten papers:
8"x8", 9"x9", We have a really good selection of 8.50" x 11" Cardstock,
Overall Each company has something to offer everyone...According to your taste and budget!
It looks like the new products re up on the xxx.ismyangel.net sites except for the images. I'd start checking tomorrow again as they have been making changes everyday this week.
I have tried to open several Angel's web sites but to no avail. I repeatedly get this message:

Can anyone tell me what I need in order to view an Angel's web page?
Thanks....

One thing to do for the reduced size images is keep last year's catty handy. At least you can see the sets full size that were in that one.
Another thing - someone mentioned using a full size magnifier page and holding it 3" from your catty to see the images full size. I haven't tried it but they tested it by comparing to last years catty.
