If you have a friend that does home photography get him to make 1-1 photo negative. The coat a thin piece of sheet aluminum with photo-resist, then lay the negative on the aluminum and expose it to a stong light. Then wash the piece of aluminum it will remove the resist where the black is supposed to be. The put masking tape on the back of the aluminum, and submerse the piece in some etching acid(I believe it is called Ferric Chloride). It will eat away the surface of the aluminum and turn the aluminum black then remove the balance of the resist and cutr the plate to size.
