Seems to me that there's a lot of old posts that can be canned, such as the RAK and for sale threads from ages ago (and not so ages ago). If they haven't sold or found a home after, say, 3 months, then we need to can the posts. I think I'll take care of those tonight because I'd like to clean something since I can't clean my house.

I'm all for consolidating the event artwork but I wish there was a way that layouts could be with layouts, mixed media with other mixed media, cards with cards, etc, but that sounds too tedious to sort it all.
It is a fair amount of work, but doing it a little at a time gets it done. I'm guilty of never uploading to the gallery, mainly because I don't upload from the PC but link from Photobucket... which is convenient for me. I upload from my phone directly to there and then edit and post.

I did know what I was getting into when suggesting it... but I think once the project is complete it will make the forum so much more tidy... one section at a time! ;)

It just hit me when deleting a topic, the person posting was Lynn (flojo). If some of us weren't still active with CS, we would never have known about her passing. That one took me back a little bit and made me wonder about some of the people who used to be on here who no longer are. You never know when one of us may not be here after our last post of the day or night. Makes me want to tell all of you - if I'm not here tomorrow, I love you all!

Looking back through old posts and seeing the names of people who used to be here, I wonder where and how they are like Julie the Realtor and many others. And, yes, Pam, we should not take anything or anyone for granted.
