9 Years Ago

#45 August 23, 2014

Welcome To Our Family.

The rules? No rules; just an expectation that we all "do unto others." In other words, if you want others to promote your work, you should do the same for them. Those of us who take a full part in promoting ourselves and others try to do so for a 24 hour period or longer if possible. That includes opening the Big Skip and promoting the images in there too.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND HOW WE DO THINGS HERE:

Please use the URL for your image postings, rather than the copy and paste code. Posting the photo itself, rather than a link will make it difficult for people who don't have high speed internet, as well it might cause people to skip over your post without promoting.

Only 1 image is allowed per day, both in this discussion and in the group.

If you are posting nudes, or other questionable images, please post a warning notice with your link. There are children here, as well as adults who choose not to look at that type of image.
Please do not post links from your pixels.com account or any other FAA mirror site. It tends to create problems for some people and most will skip those links.

ABSOLUTELY NO images of nudity, death, cruelty or violence of any kind on the main board, where you have no ability to post a warning.


Finally, JUST HAVE FUN!! This is an incredible group of people who will make you feel welcome from your first post!!


TO ALL NEWCOMERS: I realize that some of you are so new to not only the group, but to FAA, that I thought perhaps a little clarification is in order. I'm sure you've noticed that while we can't require anyone to vote/like anyone elses work, we do tend to treat people the way people treat others. But I also realized that you may not have a clue what we're talking about, so........... to "like" someone's work, you click on their blue link, which opens up that particular piece. In the upper right corner, you'll see a few little icons. One is a thumbs up, which is what you press to "like/vote" for that piece of art. Most of us here press that whether we love the work or not. It's how we help each other to move up in the FAA search standings (even though FAA now says it doesn't count for very much, but that's now past history and it is what it is). That's all we ask of you. Should you choose to do so however, you can also click on the little heart (which is to add a work to your own "favorites" list), and you'll also find buttons for the various social media sites if the artist chooses to activate any or all of those buttons. These are the ways we promote each other. You may also choose to vote/like your own submissions. It's perfectly acceptable to do so.

Luscious lips Lulu AKA Linsey Williams or learned arteeeeeest here. I must just say I went out this evening to me neighbours 70th birthday gathering, which I was not looking forward to at all. Neither was she I might add. A lot of family issues which I will not go into but It turned out to be a fabulous night. Temps hovering above freezing, most of us in the garden, humans from 5 to 70. Me neighbour being 70, after all that is why we were there. I was greeted by a lovely 15 year old lad with a fantastic hairstyle who gave me a hug and a peck on the cheek. The same with me neighbours son. who is about 45.

Anyway I wont bang on about who is who and who is with who but all I can say is I wish my family were like that lot. So much love and loads of genuine hugs. Me neighbours other son who lives in Spain even turned up and there were tears all around. The evening got a bit loud but it was all just good humour. I have never had so many hugs at a do before. Lots of laughter to. Such a tonic I must say.

All is well.

Night night to all. Oh! and lots of {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}. No reason why I shouldn't pass them on. XXXXX

Darrell,
When the discussion gets lengthy a new one is started about once a week. The #s keep it organized for you.

Oh... makes sense. Thanks Debra.

Out of town with family, so I skipped the convo (hope y'all are ok!), but liked and (robo)commented back to my last post. Fantastic artwork!!

You'll get the hang of it pretty fast. We get silly a lot of the time, but really care about each other here. If you have any questions at all, don't hesitate to ask. As you can see, someone will jump in with an answer for you.

:)

Welcome Darrell.
Glad to have you here.

I am going to call it a night. Have a good one.

 

Darrell Hutto

One quick question Anne, I noticed in the rules when we are to submit our 1 image a day we are to use the URL. Other groups have a place to click on to submit the image, Where do I submit the URL? Into the RSS feed?

Caught up with likes, some favs, some tweets. Probably have to do the same tomorrow morning. Celebrated my folks' 52nd anniversary up in Portland - (my mother's 2nd marriage, so technically my stepdad, but more father than the biological).

Came back to a sale on Etsy, a 13x19 of this one, a repeat seller, and last week also a small 8x10 sale of Elemental, also a repeat seller, so that makes this my best month ever with the sale earlier this month about $160 which will help pay for Maisie's raw food and I'm Yunity mushrooms. Very grateful for that! It does make me wonder since I promote more on here than anywhere else and promote my Etsy site very little. Hmmm.

Anyway, congratulations Marianne on the Clinton image and Christina on your sale here. Also to others if I missed any - blue lined it. Going to get some dinner.

The first game of the season was a thriller 3 scores in the final 2 min with my team winning it on a last play with a field. Wish I could have gone to Ireland to see it in person, but the party at 8:30am was fantastic, Eggs, bacon, sausage, bagels and a cinnamon roll french toast casserole to feed 20+ people great time with good friends.

Way over did things yesterday. Managed to get a nap in today, but still exhausted. I wonder if I learned my lesson this time? Doing a quick blue line since my last post.

Terri W - Holy cow! Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I read your post about my Tits! I would have had Mt. Dew come out my nose!

Stuart - ROFLMAO! Yup, and get ready for this....both my Tits will be on my display rack!!

I am so happy my kids do not stand behind me when I type....they can read and if they saw this...they would ask me all sorts of questions! So not ready to explain that one! Oh that reminds me. Once Gavin asked his daddy what "those" were. Daddy said, those are my nipples. So from then on, it was look at my Nickels mommy....sorry...had to share. That was when he was about two.

Lins - I am shocked you are shocked...LOL
