I don't have a vaseline in the house, but I'll try to get out and get some soon to try this.

I forgot that DD made her own bath products once and used olive oil and almond oil. I didn't think about how wonderful her stuff was. Untill I can get some Vaseline, maybe I could try just the oils put on very thin.
However, I do worry about her zit prone skin using oils and/or vaseline. At this point though pimples may be better than the flakey skin.

thanks for the ideas

Less material=less cost to produce?

That's probably one part of the equation, but also smaller=cheaper to ship halfway around the world.

Less material=less cost to produce?

I'm kinda thinking that this is the "Dollar Store" - everything is a dollar. I bet both sizes are still being produced, but the smaller one is cheaper for the Dollar Store to buy, so they get a better profit on it (since their sales price is "fixed" at a dollar). Makes more sense for them to sell the slightly smaller one.

I am sure there are others but one I remember suggesting is to make search results come in pages of up to 100. They used to be 25 and it was a chore to look through page after page after page...

carve them with the stamp upside down.

I was just watching a TV show last night about a forger who copied signatures upside down. He stated that when you copy them right side up, you are trying to copy someone's font. When you do it upside down, it is like copying art which is much easier.

I have also always done letters upside down, now I have an idea why it works.

Yikes!!!
You need to stop and smell the virtual roses!!!

I have a big ego, I guess I'll go first!

A ways back I suggested some changes in the wording of the home page to make them a bit friendlier to folks that are not letterboxers and simply read about it in a magazine somewhere.

I also much more recently suggested reformatting the Recent Threads widget to make it neater and add the ignore thread button.

Probably my most popular suggestion was the hats, or rather the changeable Premium Member hats.

I am still waiting on Ryan to make the site look less like someone puked up on my screen, but I won't hold my breath.

~The newest box of the month is now available to find.

This is a gorgeous carving by mudflinginfools of ME.

It will be in place through the 21st.

You don't want to miss this one.

Try baby lotion (NOT baby oil). Baby lotion is made for sensitive skin. I have extremely sensitive skin and I also cannot use lanolin, but I have rubbed baby lotion over my entire face without stinging. I think Burt's makes a baby lotion which would be even better since it's natural. Another suggestion is eye cream - the night kind. Eye cream is made to be extra moisturizing. Good luck!

But if you have suggested in idea that has been used, feel free to remind everyone of your contribution! What parts of Atlas Quest were your idea?

The EWWWWW button was my idea! Oh, wait, that was one of the ones that was shot down. =P

What is it?

Will do, ss! It's been soooo snowy and cold here in NY we can't get out and box. I'm going through withdrawals! Hoping for decent boxing weather when we visit! crossing fingers and toes

Looks like this to me.

Here's the stamp impression again. I think she did a marvelous job!

I invented Atlas Quest.

I always spend too much when it comes to scrapbooking...what's a BIA I don't think I have one...do I NEED one???

You forgot to caution people to exercise stealth. That must be it.

Well it seems that we have calmed down some here. I have asked mud to help me sort through the postals here. I have been having some issues and have not been able to do this. So she has gracefully offered to help. I am very thankful. This will halp me catch up here.

I am hosting a few rings that I might have to change around, but hopefully not.

Well I am still pregnant. Having all kinds of issues. So please continue to pray for us. I am on and off of AQ. I can access it via my cell phone, but it is often difficult to answer email this way.

I am willing to help if you need anything else Shawna, anything at all.

Rest up & try to take it easy!

I would love to attend a carving class event!

Oh, Oh, Oh, I want to attend a carving class!! ::raising hand high and waving::

I worked on pics last night and some this morning too! It's fun and overwhelming for me too!

Hey... I just wanted to reply to Al Gore.

and um... cows. I begged for cows.

Eye cream is made to be extra moisturizing.

This was my first thought. Of course she will have no wrinkles either :)

It is a Bind it All made by Zutters. It is a little machine that punches a row holes in tons of stuff; CDs, heavy cardboard, metal etc; to make logbooks. It also crimps on the wire so you have a very cool book. Do a google search and I am betting that you will find that you DO need one! Mine is in transit and I cannot wait! Terrio

Try hydrocortisone. My son has severe eczema and that's where his doctor had us start. Now we've moved onto some heavy duty prescription lotions. But hydrocortisone should work for most people. If it doesn't clear in a few days, see your doctor. There are different levels of prescription lotions and they work very quickly. :)

Well I am still pregnant.

Whooo Hooo! Good job. We will all continue to pray for you, the little one and the rest of the family! Terrio

What Romana said, and get a good magnifying lamp. I also recently learned to needle carve (thanks RaqsEnigma for a great class at LBCon!) and that has made it easier to get fine details. :)

hence why people start falling off the farming games at the upper levels and let them sit for long periods of time.

Dina B serious.....now that is just plain funny...

Well, I tried !!! *hands in pockets, kicking the ground*,

*going back to my corner... in my own little world... that's OK, they know me there*

Thank you again Dina, Charlie and all those brave or dumb enough to make it to the MMT3. ;O)

You're welcome Safari Man. That very fine line between brave and dumb was crossed over quite a lot this weekend, huh ??

I have heard from some of our Out of State Guests, with the "WE'RE HOME SAFE" message. Goofy Girl and her bunch, they were letterboxing on the way home... AND taking the southern LONGER way.... so I expect we'll hear from here later today.
Hornicorn decided to wait an extra day, so she bunked at our house last night and when I left for work this morning she was getting ready to head for home as soon as it warmed up a bit.
A few of the others were waiting til today too.

THANKS Friends.
Dina B.

I've seen LBCon mentioned before, where is it held? Is there a link to info about it?

thx.
