Queenie's Welcome Poem

Fantastic poem Queenie and totally agree - is just what the board needs to encourage and welcome all the new OS members that Martins book has and will continue to generate.

What a great poem Queenie!

Would it be possible to have this as a the opening to a sticky about "How to find things on OS"?

dannahaz, thats a brilliant idea. :T:T:T

Squeaky, Pink-Winged and Gingham Ribbon - any chance of making the poem a sticky?

Glad

it is a great poem Queenie :T

Gingham_Ribbon

I'll copy you in on a pm I sent to someone asking that question.

We'll need to get back to you as we've been talking about how we could incorporate it somehow without it having its own sticky as we tend to have a LOT of stickies at the beginning of the month as the challenges start. Maybe it could be incorporated into the welcome sticky and that's one of the ideas we've had. It's not gone unnoticed, there just isn't an answer yet as we're busy sorting out a few things to do with the stickies and no decisions have been made yet.

I think it's lovely too and helpful thanks to all the links. I don't think it's just going to disappear, it's just a case of working out what's best to do with it.

Keep in mind that all the indexes are being sorted out too so there is a lot going on behind the scenes and we're all really busy. But we won't forget.
