I am trying to get into the digi stamps but so many of them are just not my style at all. The few I have found that I like are in European money...how do you know how much they cost? Anyway, thanks for the links above to go looking around. I just am not finding enough that I like enough to actually pay for. I am sure others love these. I might end up getting a few from Dustin Pike...they are really cute. blessings.

I know there are money converters that will tell you what the US cost is depending on the current exchange rate.
The beauty is I went and bought one (yes,only ONE) stamp from one of these companies yesterday - because there is no shipping I felt no guilt at ordering just the one I wanted.
Oh, my! I'm so loving digital these days. Does anyone know if you have an American account with paypal, will paypal do the conversion to purchase digital stamps from another country? Is there an additional charge for the conversion?
Paypal should automatically convert your money...I'm in Canada and, obviously, have done a lot of "conversions" since most stuff is in the US. I don't think it charges you to convert, but the rate may not be as good as other venues for converting...I've never checked.
It'll really depend on your printer ink. I had a printer ink long ago that was waterproof and LOVED it. I haven't tried anything with me current HP ink though.

Does anyone know if digital stamps work well with Copics?
TIA
Depends on the printer ink ... I use mine with Copics... I have an HP laserjet and there's no running at all. I've heard you can heat set if you have problems and that will usually solve it.

I'm sure there are more I just can't think of them.

Once you start playing, you won't want to stop!!! I am such a huge fan of digi images because you can resize and flip them. They are so much fun!
If you are looking to buy from the UK/Europe...you can google a currency converter to help you figure out how much the set or image costs. Actually, the ones from the UK are much more inexpensive than the US counterparts. You can buy a whole set for $2-4. Most of these companies ask that you pay through paypal and when you are ready to buy, it should convert the cost to dollars so you know how much you are paying.
If you don't want to buy, there are many freebies out there like Dustin Pike (freebie every Wed so make sure to sign up). Just google free "digi stamps" (make sure to put digi stamps in quotes or try "digi images").
I think that is all I have for now...sorry this is more than a couple - LOL!
ETA: Some of these are not digi-stamp companies, but if you are on the verge of trying digi stamps, you may want to start with the freebies and play around a bit. The digis work great with prismacolor pencils blended with baby oil. I print my images on Georgia Pacific cardstock and heat set once it comes off of the printer.
