    This thread moves so fast is almost impossible to keep up and comment:eek:
    Now as a fairly new member I am not up with forum ettiquette re thanks and have been thanking only the posts which are personally relevent, comments tips etc and not (as seems to be correct) thanking people for keeping the community alive. If I have offended anyone sorry it was not my intention and if I am still wrong will someone please explain the rules
    Thanks

    I don't think there are rules. With this thread I try and read all the posts and thank them as I go along but on other threads I only thank what's relevant to me. As far as I'm aware you are free to thank who you like. I'm sure you haven't offended anyone on this thread ;)

    OAP - I think thank yous are a personal thing, and no-one should feel obliged to click on every message. I started off by thanking the ones that were relevant/informative/amused me, but as time went by I started to thank all messages - as the thread became more important to me and I appreciate the fact that everyone who posts is doing their bit to keep this little community thriving.

    Is it just me who can't get on to CP then? I was viewing last night but the magician came up when I tried to post a comment, and he's still there now. :(
    I'll try clearing my cookies and see if that helps ...
    some people grin and bear it, others smile and do it :)

    Flourgirl, beautiful card, I will also comment over there :)

    Rainmac - Very pretty! really nice stamp, and yes please if you could send it ;)

    OAP you have offended me by not thanking me ... I demand thanks NOW!! :rotfl: only messing, there are no rules as Rainmac said, I thank every post on this thread, unless I have been AWOL then I just do the ones on the page I am on, it isn't that I am ungrateful it is purely cause these ladies can natter for england and there is only so many hours in a day!! Love your card really beautiful!

    Well I have spent the last hour making up my card for the summer challenge, I won't post it here as saveapenny wants comments on there to help with sponsors.

    Thankyou craftygranny, they sure are beautiful, I only spotted them cause I dropped the big bag you sent me and they ended up all over the floor ... really pretty, I have been watching her flowers for about a month now so I might have to have a little spend on a couple of different colours.

    Rusty, images on their way to you! I love your summer card on Crafty Place, the weather here today is very overcast, not putting me in a summery thinking mood so may have to try my extra Father's Day card today instead.
