You can try taking a picture through a magnifing glass, it might work if you do it just right.

Hi TylersDad

Does your camera have a macro setting?

Take the picture from about two inches higher than Minimum for the macro for your camera,, and then crop the photo and adjust the image size to be within the tolerances for the forum ,, 100kb I believe is the limit but the forum seems to like 60 to 65,, at least from my computer that is true !!

If you still cant get a good closeup, I have used my jewelers loupe held to the lens . it works ok .
