    Thomas, in Brazil (which is not third world, but maybe third-and-a-half
or fourth) any magazine who has colour printing has couche paper (a bright,
white-as-snow paper) which is more than fine for Toner Transfering. The
"secret" keeps being able to exercise constant pressure and heat to the
paper. After I built my laminator, all transfering problems suddenly
disappeared! Watch this new board, beyond the two I've done before:

    And in a soon (?) future, Thermal Transfer in photos and steps explained
throughly in www.tabajara-labs.com.br/tt (first in portuguese, later I'll
translate to english, you all feel free to help me translating to another
languages like spanish, french and german if you find the page useful)
