there are banner killers or little tiny programs to ban the banners, but i am a mac user, and i dont get them things at all, so i dont really know which one ya should use ... guess windooz ppl are drawing the shortest straw for these stupid banners, and get the innocense from the net ... guess you should contact your provider to ask what you can do about it, or search for banner killers yourself, i know the things are very irri ... but you can do something about it ... hope you will manage, for it's a great miss if you leave this nice community because of the stupid banners ... greetings, Harmen

Doing some research: Author = Simpson, Tommy. Title = Hand and Home : The homes of american craftsmen / text by Tommy Simpson, with Lisa Hammel; photographs by Tommy Simpson, with Lisa Hammel; photographs by William Bennett Seitz; Foreword by Lisa Hammel. This is an exquisite book full of inspirational ideas for bringing art in to the home. The book showcases the homes of famous American craftsmen. Each home is a signature of the craftsmen's artistry and vision for living. The styles vary from minimalist to folksy to art nouveau. This book makes a perfect gift for those artistically inclined or for those looking for creative ideas when designing their home. If ya look for that name, you'll find Lisa Simpson too LOL Another one: Lisa Hammel, "Drawn to the Surface: Artists in Clay and Glass," Pittsburgh Center for the Arts, Pittsburgh, PA, 1988. Maybe this is Lisa Hammel? http://www.dkdigital.com/annasilver/Articles/NYT.htm Or this? http://www.worldandi.com/specialreport/1990/february/Sa17200.htm Nah ... don't think so .. otoh ... the name is not so very common, but would have expected more professionalism in her/his remarks Anyways, is this thread over now? Or are we starting a new one about christianity, nudism .. because all is very interesting...

roll over floor laugh my f(-word) a(butt) off with tears in my eyes what the f(-word) the rest of the abbreviations are found above tried to put no nudity in my words LOL

ahum ... that ain't a poser image ... that's an image taken from some place off the internet, which has their copyrights allready ... so either she does something to show some real ART, created by her own hand or she butts out ...

your not gonna delete 258 images from this community, that would be such a waste, your images are great to look at and on the scoreboard lisa is losing it 10 to ZERO ... now all she has to do is prove herself worthy to this community, by doing that what she says she is, from what she tells about herself, she must be pretty good, but for as long as she doesn't ... she doesnt come to either of our level ... and maybe one day we will forgive her for what she has said, and we can all start from scratch with her ... so LISA ... it's up to you LMFAOWTIME

hmm ... is that a poser image? i miss a finger on that right hand ... the middle finger perhaps? well show us what your talents are exactly, then people might stop with these ludicrous messages ... and if your as good as you say you are, why not show us what ya are able to do, or are ya just a tosser LOL

lol ... ya all are very fortenate with using a windooooz poooter (i will not state here what i think of those poooters, for then the discussion of that will be very long) and the available programs there are written for it ... macusers like me are limited in our choice of the wide variety of programs, so we have to do some tricks to produce a fractal :-) and level to your skills Harmen

lol .... i am really laughing about this forum ... looks more like bitchin' post ... everyone has an artist in themselves, no matter how much effort ya do to sculpt something from yer mind ... there ain't no losers either nor non-talented artists ... i think ya all are very good in what you do ... and if we learn something from each other, then we are good teachers and students ... in the end we will all produce awesome images ... and get wonderful comments ... i maybe wrong, but isn't that really what did forum is for... to help each other with what we do love to do most of the time? so please do not bash at each other again, thats not exactly what we are here for ... thank you :-) Harmen
