As I mentioned in an earlier post, I wanted to create some additional Chicago Area Bike Trail Gift Items<\/strong> (for more trails), and I just completed the design of more items for two more trails.<\/p>\n

The new gift items are for the Chicago Lakefront Trail <\/a>\u00a0and the Busse Woods Trail<\/a>. There are links at the bottom of these pages for the new items. I have also created a page to include all of the gift items in one place and that is the Bike Trail Gift Items <\/a>page.<\/p>\n

These designs are all from the Zazzle.com site and it is pretty easy to design your own items, but it does take a little time and you need the photos to begin with so I put these together for those who might be interested in these kinds of items and don’t have the time, tek experience or the photos. There are always people looking for a lot of unique things in the holiday season anyway.<\/p>\n

I had planned on doing quite a few additional trails but unfortunately I have run into a little bit of a problem. The web pages that I did on many of my earlier trails I used still pictures that I created from a camcorder tapes<\/strong> so these photos are very low quality. \ud83d\ude41 For example, the Elroy-Sparta trail, the I&M canal trail, the Palatine and Deer Grove Trails). The photo resolution is fine for the web pages but I do not want to try to use blown up version of these for the gift items due to the reduced resolution.<\/p>\n

For some of the other trails, I just could not find the kind of high quality photos that I would like to use so I will be going back to many of these trails to try and get some better photos that really capture the feel of the each of the trails.<\/p>\n

So many bike trails… So little time!<\/em><\/strong> (especially with the peak bike season ending here in the Chicago area).<\/p>\n

Well, we’ll see how the gift items go for now and I know that I will be getting out to the bike trails asap for more photos!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
