Hi,

I've been searching all over the net for color glass gobo of rose window stain glass to project on a cyc. Anyone direct me to where I can't seem to find?

Thanks.

George

I'd make my own. We have a Rosco "Image Pro" that allows us to create our own projections. It is a device that goes into the gobo slot on a source-four. It uses a special holder for the transparency that has 2 layers layers to allow air to be forced around the transparency to keep it cool. The image is printed overhead transparency film using an ink jet printer/ I use a Canon with good success. I usually run it through 3 times to get better blacks.

If you want some inspiration for creating your own design, do a google image search on "rose window" for 8,370,000 pictures.
