Gee, I'd sure like to know what it is. It's so frustrating our graphics don't seem to work anymore as well as some pictures not being able to be posted..... ::::::

 

Anyway, happy birthday, youngster! )

Happy birthday, Rebecca!!

[Donna]

Happy birthday, Rebecca! :yay2 Can't wait to see the pic when Photobucket is back up! But I happen to know what you got already, you lucky little devil! :bad :thumbsup to your hubby!

[Guest SamplerLady]

I can see it! I can see it! It's very familiar looking! What's it's name? Mine is Esmerelda. )

[RebeccaVelasquez]

she doesn't have a name yet.... i was thinking of getting a wood burning tool and putting a design on the wheel.... what do you think? i'm waiting for her to 'talk' to me a bit more before we choose a name

 

i do :pump her so!!

[Donna]

I can see her now! Beautiful! :)h

[Tiffany]

She's so beautiful! :)h What a perfect birthday present! :pump

[Guest SamplerLady]

Woodburning is a great way....can't remember does she have any kind of a finish on her? if so, you may want to sand it off first. If I remember right, wood burning only works well on "raw" wood.

 

Celtic knotwork around her would look so cool..... )

Oh Rebecca, she's beautiful <img border=0 src="http://img28.photobucket.com/albums/v84/crochetville/ura1.gif" />

how is esmerelda decorated? i'd love to see her picture :camera

[viviskins]

What an awesome gift! *is jealous* hmm maybe someday.... Happy Birthday!

[Guest SamplerLady]

Here are pics of Esmerelda

I posted them on EZBoard before but like all the pictures I post, they have disappeared. The ones in primary colors are painted directly on the wheel and the purple and pink ones are wooden cut outs of sheep I got at Michael's (hobby store), painted, and glued to the wheel. I also got press on decals and decorated the bobbins but haven't taken pictures of that yet. As it spins around in front of me it has golden stars on it. )

[RebeccaVelasquez]

that's cute! i had considered the tatoo stuff... i don't know what it's called... i'll go look for a link. just not sure. i bet it looks neat spinning

[Donna]

Cute sheep on Esmerelda, SamplerLady! If you tell me what you're doing when you try to post the photos, I should be able to help you figure out what's going wrong. I'm not having any problems posting pics from your netsnapshot album. Here's a test one below (one of your pics of Esmerelda ) ).

 

[RebeccaVelasquez]

ummmm, donna - i just get a red X

8o

 

:thinking2

[Guest SamplerLady]

Yup, it doesn't show for me either. And it doesn't seem to matter where I link from, if it shows at all within a relatively short period of time it fails to link anymore. That's why I removed my pics from signature and profile, too. )

[woolandflax]

That is an awesome present!! You must have a wonderful loving husband who knows you well! :)h

I have a proposition for you, I might be able to get you some fleeces in exchange for 50% of the yarn spun from them? Let me know if you are interested. My feelings won't be hurt if you have your hands full already.

Sampler Lady, try photobucket.com - it could be that there is a time-out on the images from the host you are using. Maybe they don't want to lose the bandwidth. It's weird, because I can come to a post of yours and see your image once, but then it's gone the next time I visit.

[Donna]

Okay, I figured out the photo problem. Basically, netsnapshot doesn't want people hotlinking their images (displaying them on another site). If you actually visit your photo album and look at the pics of Esmerelda and then come back here, they will be visible (when they weren't before). That's because the images are now cached on your computer. The next time you come back, they won't be visible because they've been cleared from the cache. I agree with Julie, try Photobucket.com -- it's free and it's very easy. Netsnapshot simply isn't going to let you hotlink images.
