I like doing strip quilts; they're very easy to do and the patterns you can make with them are very nice.

Sounds very interesting, do you have any pictures of one of your quilts? I would love to see one or two of them
I am also going back into doing more bead work, and will be checking out my first bead show since I have moved down here.

I never took pictures of my quilts; never thought to do it. My health has ended a lot of things for me and so I haven't quilted in 7 years now. Must have broken a mirror back then.
I used to buy my beads from Fire Mountain Gems. They sell wholesale to the public. Their prices used to be really good.
Do you cross stitch too? I used to do the ones where you add beads and specialty threads.

I still buy from fire mountain, not like I used to. I had gotten away from doing any bead work since I gotten wrapped up with doing graphics on the computer.
Most of the beadwork I made was dream catchers, sun catchers, Mandella's, bone bead chokers, prayer sticks and spirit chimes.
I used to do cross stitch, but found out I just didn't have the patience for it

Thank you very much Steve. I updated this one and made new preset for it also. Now I am tring to firgue if I need to upload it again since it is in the wrong catagory. Do you ghave an answer for that one?
It seems like an long time lol, we finaly have sunshine here, affter having rain for 2 weeks. That sure can make a person depress.
I know the grass sure like all that rain since it grew to be more than a foot tall in the back yard and not to much fun to mow it lol.
My time is almost up with Filter Forge, I have till the end of the month then my trail version expires. I will still be comming to the forums.

No, I've had several variant filters put in different catagories (ie....creative & Misc) for some unknown reason. I asked FF to put them together in creative where they clearly belong, but my request was ignored.....

I don't know if FF allowed jffe to give his high usage to Redcap and Ronviers, but if they are allowing it, you and Ahimsa can have my extra high usage to get the free copy.....maybe create a pool of them from others who have extras so no one gets left out.....which has been my concern about doing this because I don't have enough to go around to everyone who deserves it.....
If not, just request another extention.....which I'm quite sure they will grant because of your ongoing quality efforts  Steve

Wow, that would be really nice, but wasn't that only approved for Redcap and Ronviers? If they would allow it, I would like to be able to give the credits back to you as I earn them.
I am getting ready to prmote my filters hopefully by the end of this week. I didn't get anything done today thanks to someone coming into my home last night. My bird scared the crap out of him and my calling my husband's name made the person slam the door shut and thud into something before taking off. Took the police 1/2 an hour to get here and I have been a bit distracted all day because of it. Gun or surveilance cameras...

That's what I was thinking.....just give back the high usage filters loaned once your filters acheive enough high usage. I really wish FF would just grant additional time extentions for those like you who have demonstrated a sincere effort to contribute.....enough time so your filters can achieve high usage on their own.....because I know that it is getting harder to get high usage with filter submissions seeming to outpace new users.....

First suggestion for both of you.....write FF and request additional time extentions.....because it should be obvious to them that you will eventually get the high usage needed if you allowed to continue.....and it doesn't make any sense to cut you guys off when clearly you would continue to learn, become more skilled, contribute better and better filters, and continue to contribute in the Forum.....

I tend to agree with Steve
I know it took me a few days to get over my apartment getting broke into when I lived up north.
I did get one reward, it on my first frame I made optical illusion frames, I have alot that have downloads ove 100 and I know that don't mean anything.
I just have to keep my fingers cross and hope that one day I will get an free copy.
I would also like to be able to give the credits back to you as I earn them to some one who could use them.

Do they grant more than one extention? They would be great if they would give me an 90 day extention.

Stevie, I have already had the 90 day and an additional 30 day extension. Also I told them I wouldn't ask for another. I was upset about something here and wasn't interested in staying, but things change.
I need to go to bed now, so good night! (I keep my husband's hours so I sleep days)

I haven't gotten any yet and I started before you I think. I have filters that have well over 100 downloads, but you're right, that doesn't mean anything.

Yes.....and they seem quite willing to make exceptions for those who are putting a serious effort into contributing.....
Like I said.....write them and request additional time extensions first.....and also mention that I am willing to donate the extras needed to give you both the free copy as an alternative. They will contact me via email if they choose to allow this alternative.....but I'm guessing that they will have no problem granting you both the time extentions.....given your ongoing contributions.....

if i know vladimir, he's probably already debating giving some folks a free copy based just on their prolifiic participation here in the forums and with their filters. he's been more than generous in the past what with how many freebies he gave out after the beta and with extensions and with the freebie program in general. i doubt it will be necessary; you both have done very good filters and time will see you rewarded, i'm guessing. but, by all means, do ask for extensions. If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

I'm over it. However, if you would like to come by and wash the dishes, feel free.
My extension doesn't end until the 30th, maybe one of mine will be high use by then. Like I said, I will be promoting mine in a few days.

Hi all~
Ahimsa that sounds terrible about the break-in~ Hope all is well now~
Lynn~
I sent you a private message about asking for an extension. And congrats on the one high usage!!!! One down, two to go...
I'm in the same boat you are right now but I just hit a second high usage and waiting on the third. Soon hopefully we will both have free copies and giving our extras to others. Crossing my fingers,, toes,,, ect. LOL
Hi Steve~  I have a week or two left of trial then I'm cut off from making filters or using the program (extensions will be all used up). Hopefully I'll get one more high usuage before that happens.

Hey Jean, you dissappeared again  Hope everything is okay with you
My offer extends to you as well. I think you, lynn, ahimsa, Rawn, Ron, and Redcap all deserve exceptions for your contributions.....to help you achieve the free copy.....
I believe that I have 9 or 10 HU filters.....could be more because I haven't checked them lately.....so I could spare 7 or more of them to help.....but I don't know what policy FF is following.....if any.....
I would write to FF and see what they are willing to do..... Steve

Hi Jean, yeah, I make sure to lock the doors now and that works for me. We used to be able to leave are cars and homes unlocked here, but I guess those days are completely over.
I have a few filters (5) that are getting pretty close to HU now myself. I still haven't gotten around to promoting them because this real life thing gets in the way of my cyber life. Grrrrrrrrrrr...RL!

StevieJ, ahimsa took advantage of your offer and applied for a free copy. I took the liberty to grant it to her without re-asking you first. So now you only have 7 High Rank filters instead of 9
