NOOOOOOOOO!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! To BUSY must WORK
Posted by Terry Whynott (Member # 1622) on :
Hi Troy, how'd the move go?
I won't be putting anything together this time around. If someone else wants to step up and do it, GO FOR IT!
BTW- At last count there were about 12 or 13 people still working on theirs from the last one!
I can't really talk, I had promised a website of all the panels and I don't think that is going to happen.
Posted by DONALD THOMPSON (Member # 3726) on :
Troy, I hope someone steps up. I would be interested in getting in on this one.
Posted by Masterhand Signs (Member # 785) on :
Still waiting on the first
Posted by Troy Haas (Member # 472) on :
I would volunteer to do this one, but if I did, Penny would probably divorce me for taking on something else.
Right now, I have the Recreation Soccer League that 1. I'm on the board of Directors 2. I'm U-12 Comissioner 3. In the spring I coach my daughters U-10 team and in the Fall I coach a Boys U-12 team.
I am also involved heavily in Megan's Select Soccer Club where I am...
1. On the Veterans Memorial Tournamant Committee 2. I am on the Uniform and Image Committee 3. I am the Team Manager for Megan's U-10 Select Travel team.
As well as I will ride the lawn mower over at the fields from time to time.
Penny has said I cannot "Volunteer" for anything else for awhile........
I hope someone else steps up....
I will help someone if......Whack.......OUCH!!!!! Nevermind, Penny saw me typing
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Alright then.........
I did indeed volunteer to run the next one. I will set up the parameters (that is "guidlines" for all the vocabulary police... LOL!) for this go around.
Have a great one!

Passing the torch...
Posted by Stevo Chartrand (Member # 2094) on :
Count me in too!
Posted by Mark Matyjakowski (Member # 294) on :
Wait, back that torch up there buddy. Let's have an official close to the first one first. Is it fair to say that anyone who didn't do theirs yet probably won't? (no judgements)
Just call the thing done and make the website for Steve to host (you know I'll help if needed ... sure others will too). To just dump everything because of a few doesn't seem right to me. There were far more positives about the whole project to just forget the whole thing because of a couple of negatives.
For those (of us) that gave but didn't recieve ... hopefully we enjoyed the making more than the waiting ... I did. I've basically given up on seeing a panel, which really doesn't bug me ... I haven't given up on seeing the "end" results of the whole thing.
You guys should probably be able to figure the next one out in Quebec ... but could we please put this one to bed first?
Posted by Rick Chavez (Member # 2146) on :
Hurry! Someone send Mark a panel or call it over!
I want in on this. I was bummed that I didn't do it last time, I have already dabbled with a few designs!

Posted by Robert Carney (Member # 2016) on :
I have to agree with Mark!
I'll secound that emotion to officially close the first Letterhead Panel Swap of 2002-2003.
Done lets move on!
Terry, I would like to see the website completed also. There were alot of great panels done and it would be ashame not to see them.
Posted by Terry Whynott (Member # 1622) on :
Hey Rob, I'll let you work on it Wednesday night before we leave for Quebec!
Fine, I'll try to keep pecking away at it. I think I made it a little more complicated than it needed to be. So now, half way done, finishing it still seems a little daunting. It was designed with all the panels in the order of how they were sent, so there are a bunch of holes where finished ones are supposed to be. It'll have to stay that way. I also gave up hounding people for details on their panels, so most will have details, some just a picture.
I'll see what I can do.
Posted by Jeff Ogden (Member # 3184) on :
As another one who recieved no panel, I have to go along with what Mark said. Just end it and have a display of all the ones who did contribute. If any body gets a panel after all this time, it can be displayed with the gallery of next years panels, with a notation. Like Mark said, it's easier to just come to grips with the fact you're not getting one, and move on to something else. I will have more fun making another one, than I would sitting around waiting for last year's panel to get here.
Bruce, you can put me down for one.......
Posted by Alan Ackerson (Member # 3224) on :
Bruce, Please count me in. Is it still gonna be based on the town of Letterville?
Terry, Not to intrude, but if you need help with the html let me know. I can give you a hand with it. Not sure how you're doing it but if you make a home page, a content page, and a nav bar file (frame set), dupe the content page a couple of times, the whole thing will be done in no time. Like lightning. If I could only be so confident with a brush...
Dream Weaver has a great drag and drop feature that speeds things up and fills those gaps with a click (or two)! The style sheet is a time saver also.

Count me in.
Bruce setting parameters...isn't that like allowing Timmerman to establish the threshold of sanity??!!
I'm up for a panel exchange.

anything else?
Keep on keepin' on
Posted by CJ Allan (Member # 52) on :
I came to grips with the fact of not getting one right from the start....
"Doin" one for someone is what it's all about for me anyway....
If ya don't expect anything....You're never disapointed, and if something does happen, You can be surprised......
I like making things for the people I choose, and don't put a return address on any of it !!

Posted by Masterhand Signs (Member # 785) on :
As I mention earlier I to am still waiting but really had forgotten about it til this post...I agree with Mark Jeff and CJ its in the giving so lets rock on I'm in....
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Timmerman... Sanity... Now there are two words you don't often see in the same sentence.
The motion to close the First, Innagural, Number One, et al. Letterville Panel Exchange has been made and and has been duly accepted. The motion was made by Mark Matyjakowski and seconded by Robert Carney.
All those in favor of the Motion will vote by the ancient sign of a Letterhead while voting.
All those in favor of this motion will vote now...
All hands down..
All against, same sign...
Hands down...
The ayes have it and the motion has been passed. Brother Shortreed, will you please record the vote? Thank you.
I will let you know when to register for the draw and what the cut off date is. I will have the logistics of the projects ready at that time. I will try hard to have everything ready for after FKAB.
We have a great idea for this one and I trust that you will all have a great time doing this. I, for one, can't wait.
I will keep you all posted.
Posted by Terry Whynott (Member # 1622) on :
Shoot, I just missed the meeting.
OK, I've spent the night doing some more work on the website. Hopefully, I will have it put together right around the time Bruce has all the details together for #2.
CJ, I trust Jackson is aware that you are still planning on doing a panel for him?
Posted by Bruce Bowers (Member # 892) on :
Anyone, and I mean anyone, ever refers to this swap as "#2" gets it... Hahahahahaha! That's 'cause that would make the last a "pi$$er"... LOL!
John Deaton, get that can of whoop ass ready...

Posted by Dave Utter (Member # 634) on :
I'm in. I was a little slow last time, but I have a bunch of new brushes, and paint now, and I'm ready!
Posted by Kelly Thorson (Member # 2958) on :
I have an idea - don't know if it is a good one or not - but if everyone just went ahead and did a panel and then emailed Bruce when it was ready he could tell them who to send it to and when they received it they could e-mail him a picture. That way if your quick you would get one back quickly too. Some of the really speedy ones could even do more than one panel and those who didn't get around to it wouldn't get around to getting one in return. Might help to alleviate any hard feelings and I think it would make it fairly simple to set up.
Posted by Jed Pedersen (Member # 2344) on :
I'm in !!! Just let me know when, where and what....

Posted by Tony Potter (Member # 1199) on :
I am in on this one as well.
I feel exactly same as CJ about matters of giving/receiving.... yikes.
Posted by Si Allen (Member # 420) on :
I like Kelly's idea!
1st in is 1st out! That way those who do complete a panel will get one, and those that never finish one wind up sucking sand!
Posted by William DeBekker (Member # 3848) on :
I would like to get in on this.. Whats the time frame as you know we're moving in 2 weeks and it will be a month or so before I get the new shop built. (I say A month but in reality it will be 4 mos)
Posted by Michael Clanton (Member # 2419) on :
IN.
I missed getting in on the first one, but it appeared that you got someones' name, and then created a panel, some of them really reflected the reciever (like something with a chicken for Adrienne), others reflected the sender. That was pretty cool.
Thanks Terry for all the hard work, after all you were the pioneer , but at least you did it!
Posted by Laura Butler (Member # 1830) on :
Depending on what is required, I may be in.
Posted by Bill Biggs (Member # 18) on :
Kelly, as to the quote you used below. "Pooh looked at his two paws. He knew that one of them was the right, and he knew that when you had decided which one of them was the right, that the other one was the left, but he never could remember how to begin."
If you hold your hands out in front of you with thumbs extended, and looking at the back of your hands, the one that makes an L is the left hand. LOL Bill "There is always an answer to a problem if you look for it." Thomas Edison.
