  6. Allison, when I open up the jpg template, it looks like the file is about 8x12" at 300 dpi (high res print resolution.) Not sure how to advise you!

  10. It would have been nice to also mention the "message" behind the craft, as explained in the desinger's website
    "We are the PIIGS, we want our dignity, we are not responsibles of this crisis and we want to change The European Union. Download for free."

    Just saying.

  11. They are super cute - but a total pain to put together. Apparently they are PIIGS - a brilliant political commentary on the European Union countries of Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, and Spain.
    But the ears, snout, and legs are all separate teeny pieces of paper, and they have no directions...
    Okay, trying not to let my frustration putting these together detract from their cuteness, which is almost worth the effort it takes to put them together.

  13. Done in green paper, they will thrill my Angry Birds-loving grandson. What a heartfelt socio-economic commentary the little piigs make. There are more lessons there than just making a mini-pig. Bravo!
