We'll have our pathtags with us at the Cinco de Mayo event. I already owe tags to Yogi57 and TMA. Am hoping to make a few trades.

I think it is a good idea too. However, the detail of your picture may be too much to convert to a pathtag. I am not really good with the design side of tags. Maybe someone with more experience designing tags can comment. That is my only reservation.
I am an amazed cacher!

Hi!
The trouble with pathtags is that they are really small.
The great thing is that they can get an amazing amount of detail for their size.
If the scale of the book is kept the same on the tag, about the only way to get good detail would be to make your picture be a sketched profile.
Or at least, change the green background of the inserted photo to the same as the book.

We've made quite too many pathtags. Some we had ideas we paid an artist to do, some we were able to hash out ourselves.
If we can be of any help, we'll be happy to help. :)

My only comment is that each color on your tag would have to have a border around it so that could make things that are detailed look slightly different. That is just what i was told when we were talking about making a pathtag of our own but we may have been mistaken.

Perfect! We were hoping your name would go on the spine of the book.
We'll be happy to trade for one! :)
