Yarrr Hee Mateeessss.....

We have a man overboard, Sadly salmiakki has informed me that she will not be able to plunder the Wpl4 leages of the sea with us. I have a few people I am contacting to see if we can fill the slot, but if there are any suggestions as to who we would like as shipmates. We will be looking for 1 tocome aboard.

Good luck to you Sal, Hope everything is well with you. Hope to see you around DPC in the near future.

Thanks Rich

Sorry everyone, my personal circumstances changed somewhat! I will be relocating from Chicago to Finland during the next 8 weeks or so. Agh! So much to do, so little time.

Sorry to see you go Sal! Good luck with the move, I'm sure Rich can sympathise with you.

How is the unpacking going there Cap'n?

Ye Olde Hag of a wife (whos lovely and kind and sweet) is doing a mighty fine job of the unpacking whislt I bring in the bounty.

And now for the truth in pirate talk:

We are doing ok with packing, have alot more to do, the Holidayz messed us up some but have nothing planned for this weekend except for unpacking so hopefully we can get a good bit of it done this weekend.

Rich

Just to show what an excellent source of useless info me is, your username could be mistaken for an Afrikaans "word" directly translated to English as "Small Mountain Cat"....

Just thought I'd add it to the universe....

Throw that land lubber in the bilge, I say!
Pirates rule the seven seas!!! Arrrr!

Me Scallywag of a hubby fed me this little barnacle of treasure...so take it's truth for what it's worth!

Why did pirates wear a patch over one eye? (No punchline comin' here...)
So that they always had night vision. Makes sense to me.

ok, so what do you crazy pirates think of doing "trading cards" for each of us? All the same, but w/diff. photos for each? I suk at Elements (don't have the BIG software like the rest) but can try unless someone else wants to come up w/a template? Just a thought. We could put the entire team under the logo on our profile pages.

Aye! Let's give em' the ol' pirate evil eye to gaze upon

Nay! Make 'er walk the plank!!

01/05/2007 05:46:24 PM · #70

Aye!! Three cheers and raise the mugs high to bergiekat's idea for cards!!

01/06/2007 01:47:38 AM · #71

Aye! Cards it is then! So, uhm, who's going to be brave enough to design them?

01/06/2007 09:20:49 AM · #72

I could give it a stab, but I've no experience doing it...so...if others want to try as well...MY feelings won't be hurt, lol!!!

01/06/2007 09:34:31 AM · #73

Cool, my Elements skills are as yet non existant. Still trying to develop those...

ETA: I'm going to give the cards a bash tonight, maybe I can come up with something half decent...

Ok...these are pretty lame, but do they work for anyone? We'd add our photos and obviously our user names. Since we have no ribbons, I didn't feel like adding a treasure chest until such time. OR, we could add it and then add the ribbons as we get them!!! Forward thinking here...lol.

If Lee, Jan or Mark (or anyone else with any experience, lol) want to work some magic since I've none...knock your boots off!

Boy am I learning by doing these, hahahahaha. It's awesome!
Suggestions? Comments?
