Hi y'all. Just saw the guidelines. I read what Carol said, above, about hoping the "group doesn't get broken up". I'm concerned about that, too, since we all get along so well here in the fractal gallery and its usually such an upbeat place. I reckon we have to follow the rules, but here's an idea for if we have a "mixed medium" image and want all of our friends here to know and come check it out: Make an image with any old fractal on it and use, like, PSP to put text on it saying that you've posted an image to the MM gallery and post it the day before your MM image or just b4 midnight - then after a couple of days, delete it from your gallery. Like when they call for images for the fractal calendar. That way our friends in the fractal gallery would be sure to know - though e-bots would tell them if they are one of your fave's - and we wouldn't lose touch with each other when we are into a period of doing the MM images. I'd surely not want to miss one of Maria's awesome images that might have a tube. I've been looking for just the right dragon tube for a scene, myself, and it would be nice if folks from my HOME gallery came and talked to it when it got posted all lonely in that scary MM gallery. :>) Posting in the forum might not get seen as much. What do y'all think? Dumb idea? Probably, considering the source - lol - just thought I'd try to make the best of the situation and find a way we can all be happy. Rick
