Hmmm...Archduchess??? I'm not sure. You can call me just "G", instead of Big G. Big G works on here because I am not changing my screenname to one letter. hehe

Archduchess G? I'm not like 80.

How about Princess G.

And yes, I really do think I am a princess. :) Well not REALLY, but I'm princess-ish. Okay that's a lie too, but I like the idea of it.

overall-nicely said Big G

however, Ares and TC did try to involve Cooler Crew as much as possible-some events were last minute timing and they did it all themselves. Other times the word was spread via cellphone or internet about where to be and when. I saw great pictures of Kitch and Red Bear with Zeph at the state capitol. Just because someone in the Cooler didnt show up doesnt mean that they should give up. They trudged on to make sure that Zeph was represented everywhere for all of us and him!

 I can't say for sure that everyone was okay with that

I for one am thrilled they took it on-I woulda felt guilty that I wasnt doing more than. For the most part this year we all took on a job in the Cooler. Making sure Zeph got exactly to where he needed to be at specific times through the hunt was what Ares and TC commited to 100%! Vulcans said 'be here' and they went there- same with the King. I know I couldnt have lived up to their expectations and been where I needed to be at all times. Not only that but people like the Mayor changed schedules on them and they were stood up by people who said they would be there-including me-sorry TC and Ares.

G: I totally hear what you're saying about illustrator. i just wanted to warn everyone to not trade one crappy resolution banner or logo for another! if a design is like that is low res, someone with the background to make it more usable should possibly rework it. if everyone could do what us graphics people do, we'd be out of a job. just like i wouldn't presume to know how to be a firefigher, teacher or something else! just wanted to warn people to not get too attached to low res images!

that resolution thing sounds like its for iron ons, websites or something? Something that would be for print-like a button or banner. The embroidery woman seamed to have no troubles with the logo. I think the embroidery work came out wonderfully

me2, yeah i think for embroidery they have to rework it to their format no matter what. :) so i think that's probably a moot point. but for print, banners, ads, flyers, brochures, cards, etc.. resolution would matter more. i have no problem with the current logo, and i wish i had nabbed one of them scarves!

I hear another controversy coming, so before I go away, I'm wondering if anyone out there can create a PERSONAL LOGO for me.  I'd like it to be me (overweight middle-aged woman) with dog (tan&white).  I'd like there to be a flashing tiara & boa for my dog (so people will know she's a female).  I'd like to be wearing a water cooler over my head and my blue CC scarf around my neck.  I'd also like a shovel & rake crossed over my chest.   And a sign on my back that says "I'm getting the puck out of here"... 

Disclaimer: if my post offends anyone in any way, I am very sorry.  Only meant to lighten things up a bit...

TC, I wasn't talking about the Zephy thing when I said I was hurt. I was not hurt at all by that, in fact if you read what I wrote, I said it was a wonderful thing. I was using that as an example of how things are going to get out of hand when someone or a group of people do something for "the group" even with the best intentions. Someone is bound to feel like they're being stepped on, used, exploited, ignored, etc. and it's the nature of the group being so large.

I WAS hurt by the accusatory tone you took with Tim about the rehash and the cliquey business. Like him, I also don't know what you're referring to.

Maybe if you read my post one more time, you wouldn't be jumping to such huge conclusions. And I do have a lot of nerve, but not to say what you thought I said. Take it easy...geez.

Oriongirl...gotcha! Thanks! :) Though a lot of designers are out of jobs because of the popularity of the job and the lack of positions...hmmm.....

--and just for the sake of pleasing the amateurs vs. the "pros" - (Big G - deal with the quotation marks) It's doable to convert a logo that we collectively would be chosen - so don't feel like what Orion Girl is saying is leaving anybody out from making a design.

As far as the cliquey thing goes, TC, I am hurt by what you said to Tim. The Zephy deal could've easily been taken as a cliquey thing. You and Jason represented the whole group at several of the events and in the paper and I can't say for sure that everyone was okay with that.

goddamn right we represented the entire cooler crew at everything. wanna know why? not one other person stepped up to the plate to do it. not one. esd put together the artwork for the face. otis attached it to the cardboard cutout, but when it came time to get him anywhere, no one else stepped up, and said "hey, can i help you with that?" so anyone who has the balls to look at me and my wife and tell us that "i can't say for sure that everyone was ok with that" had best be willing to stand up and take over some of the responsibility for getting him everywhere he went. otherwise they can sit down and shut the fuck up, because their opinion on the subject doesn't matter to me one goddamn bit.

I don't know what could've been done differently, and the whole Zephy thing was a wonderful idea, but there seemed to be a lot of fighting for "credit" that turned out okay in the end, but just goes to show what we're in for in the long run.

just who exactly are you talking about fighting for credit? me with the pictures? uh i think i'm entitled to it. you're an artist? you wanna see your work retitled someplace else? i would doubt it. otis and i got that one worked out. but nowhere else did i fight for credit over one goddamn thing with regard to zephy.

 i hope you're happy with yourself. look around. treasure chest has told me that not only will she not be back, but that she terminated her pf membership as well.

I'm not going to argue anymore. Be mad, I don't care. None of what you said is even remotely what I meant, and I'm not going to defend it. I'm tired of all of this. And Sue didn't even once tell us what she meant about Tim being a jerk at the Rehash. Nobody can fix anything if they don't even know anything is wrong. You and Sue are great and have been nothing but nice to all of us and then all this shit comes out of left field!!!!! If you had a problem with no one doing anything, SAY SOMETHING. Don't just blast everyone for not being helpful when they didn't even know their help was needed. We're not all goddamn mind readers.

The credit thing was the whole thing that happened in the super secret thread that I didn't even read all that closely but I heard about a bit and then that whole "official" website BS. That's all. I didn't even know there was a whole picture argument, but I guess I do now.

neither one of us has a problem with no one helping. the problem is those who would criticize (as you did, believe it or not), and bitch about what was done, and not life a goddamn finger to help do anything differently.

now if anyone can argue that they did in fact offer to lift a finger to help who's bitching about the way things were done, i'll retract my statement. but i'm thinking that's gonna be really hard to do.

Sue... Treasure Chest... whatever you wanna be called...

look... you cant just up and delete your account/s... im pretty sure none of us here, will have that.

When Shaggy showed up here, purposely to start crap, and piss me off, so i'd leave, I really was going to do just that... but alot of people put me in my place, and wouldnt have it, you were one of those people..... so now im turning around and doing the same thing right back....

hell.... your royalty now, you cant just abandon the people of your land, for crying out loud....  if what you want, is time away, im sure we can all understand that, but you cant just up and leave for good.... your a part of this family, weather you like it or not.

I'm sure no one really cares about my opinion, but it's frustrating to see from a third party perspective all these misunderstandings (and that's what they are) and waste my time trying to get to the enjoyable stuff.

Randy- right click on the picture you just posted and "copy shortcut". Then edit your post. Click the picture frame looking thing thats under the font type box and a dialog box will pop up. Then paste the url you copied into the "image url"  box and click ok to close the dialog box. Then click on post message and the pic will show up.

Agreed, frozen, that's why I'm done trying to get my ACTUAL point across, not the point that was thought I made, and I'm leaving this argument. I'm leaving it up to Randy and Kitch to google somemore funny stuff to make this crap go away.

Q:

W
hy does eating granola always give me a lot of gas?


A: 

Those big brown crunchy things in granola are actually chips of uranium oxide. When this is ingested, a minor nuclear reaction, sometimes known as cold fission, takes place in the digestive system. A major by product of this reaction is helium gas. People who eat too much granola have been known to float away like hot air balloons and sometimes don't come down until they are miles from where they started. If you want to have some fun, try inhaling the gas as you expel it. It will make your voice sound really funny.
