      I know why some people 😕 want toilets that can flush golf balls down. It’s for people like me, who can plug pretty much any toilet with some items that belong in the toilet or even just one 😳 . Golf balls and T.P. would be the least of the toilet’s concerns 👿 .

        I just used my pearl ex powders a couple weeks ago. What I did was I mixed them in with my Liquitex Gloss varnish. It worked petty well. I think what medium you use depends on what effects you want. Using a clear coat as your base is going to give you the full pearly effect but it can be tricky to get a nice color with using it strictly as “paint” as I did. If you’re going to mix it in paint I would recommend using a transparent paint as an opaque paint it likely to hide most of the pearlescent effect. Hope this helps 🙂

          Sorry it has taken me so long to get pics of April (raffle prize for April). I finally have gotten around to taking her picture. She’s a bit camera shy and doesn’t like the outdoors (especially springtime in Alberta…warm, snow, warm, snow…grrr 8) ). The pictures were taken outside and all but a few of the front side shots were taken in the shade. The first pic was one of my sun shots.

          The rest of the photos can be found via the link in my sig but they’re mostly duplicate shots of the pics here.

            ROFL! That’s funny. I’ve never heard farts being referred to as dutch ovens before. I thought you were talking about the cookware *imagines cast iron thing shaped like a roasting pan*. Your description of a dutch oven took me totally off guard. It reminds me of the one story my grandpa told me. He was staying over at someone’s house and there was this cat. At night the cat would come and pester them and attack toes. Finally my grandpa got fed up, stuck the cat under the covers and let a ripe one rip. I guess the cat was out of there so fast you’d swear someone was trying to kill it. Now the cat gives him wide berth when he’s there and doesn’t even like to be in the same room as him.

              I took a photo of my Autumn Leaf coaster. With a little touch up it looks not too bad. Here’s the picture:

              If you want the full size picture let me know and I can email it to you.

                  Based on that thread about rubies I think I have one of the dark ruby fledglings even though I just got him(new from a store) in October. He’s a nice rich blood red color. I love his color.

                      Here and ebay are some of the best places I know of to get retired pieces. However Astral Castle sometimes has retired pieces as well. I just checked the site and it has a whole bunch of white dragons in the retired section. Here’s the link to the page that has them

                          It’s creepy how simular those pictures look(especially since both died bfore the film released). Simular hair style, makeup job, and the their facial feature are even simular (imo). Maybe is is a curse. 😕 (Who’s the joke on 8) )

                            I’ve noticed that when something is quoted multiple times, the background in the quote changes color but the text doesn’t. The text is still there but is hidden by the background being the same color. What I do to see the hidden text is I highlight it so there is contrast. I don’t know why all the pictures are missing though. It’s probably invalid links (I know Melody can’t get hers to work) or the pictures are too big and are being blocked.

                              Beautiful cat! I like both pictures. Though, I find that the 1st one is a tad dark for my liking. I wonder how a picture with saturation in between the two pictures would look. It might keep the mystirious look while bringing out the color a bit more. Just a thought. 🙂

                                For here, since we have some international forum members, a practical solution would be for them to “join” using a friend in the US address, thus making it NOT a losing situation for Windstone and mailing things.

                                I like the ideas in your post except for what I quoted. While I understand the situation, I’d like to be able to join even though I’m Canadian. The buddy system might work if you had someone to help you and then you’de still have to pay extra shipping to get the items. If I’m going to have to pay for shipping I’d rather pay it direct from Windstone than having to pay someone else to act as a go between. Unfortunately, this would only make things even more unfair for those of us who live internationally. I hope that if the club does go ahead that a better solution to the problem is reached. 🙂

                                  She actually has a reference link at the bottom of the post to the picture she was recreating. So she is at least admitting that the picture composition is not original. I’m not sure if what she did is still plagiarism, but… Here’s the original:
