Was going to put mine in seeing as August is my birthday month, but my camera does'nt produce good enough quality pics!! Plus location helps (not on the verge outside house, as my new pics were!!!!!! ) Edited by Stempies, Sun Jul 5, 2009 8:21 am.

If it is just a vinyl type sticker stuck on by it's own adhesive backing, you could try warming it up with either a heatgun or a hair dryer, just wafting it across the sticker rather than a 'full-on' assault, and when it gets warm, it should become soft, and with a non metal edge (something like a wooden cocktail stick) see if you can work at an edge to start the lifting off process, but the secret is 'be gentle' edited for poor spelling!
