This might be just my inability to read the manual, but is there any way of getting the datestamp onto any picture size other than the postcard one ?

Any help would be much appreciated - I'm getting older and need the date to remind me of where i was

My Ixus 700 was the same, might be just the way the camera is!
The date taken will still be in the exif data though.
