    The second one made me think of some lovely full length aprons... (Le sigh!)

    I am a scarf-a-holic so I was very happy to find this site. Not a lot of new idea's but great ways to freshen up the scarf style!http://www.scarves.net/scarf-tying-index.html

    I really like the fancy braid and rosette knots.

    (Loving that crochet scarf you made too!)

    It's an "almost" scam... more of a spam. Feedspot has a unsavory reputation for reporting false numbers to bloggers who subscribe to them. They are supposed to offer easier adaptation of HTML to all types of browsers and register site clicks, etc.

    Several months ago they made a move to become more legitimate and they received decent accolades as being a "middle of hte pack" RSS reader. However, the "user" reviews are not as friendly.

    Advice? Skip it. If you're going to pay for a service look for one that is the top of the pack and has a clean reputation with a lot of history.

    Thank you so much for posting this! I have a horrible time finding good homes for my overgrown "girls". I've googled and googled and never once found these shops. I can't wait to go SHOPPING!

    Until you find a permanent solution, experiment with yellow and green concealer. I use a nice yellow that blends to my skin tone when I add it over the dark circles. I know some skin tones respond to green instead. It is an amazing fix.

    What a GREAT challenge! I love the idea of using it as liner for blankest (Sanne D.) or rain coats, gators, etc. If it's the printed type you indeed have some lovely colors to work with! (Shower curtain?)

    It would make great weed barrier too. Probably last for YEARS.

    Look up "Anuschka style handbags" for a way to make the orange work for you. You can shade it down or add a design that will make it sing! I know you were asking about techniques... just made me think of one of my pending projects. ;)

    We can not now or ever control the actions of others. The only thing you can change is yourself.

    1) Edit your pictures so they can not be duplicated without your name and pertinent (web site, etc) information on them. (You may have to learn to use the software but it's a small price to pay.)
    2) Post infringement warnings on all materials.
    3) Master the internet! Where is your YouTube video?
    4) Learn social media software (Like HootSuite) to make sure people get to your idea's first and keep them on top of the popularity list for "hits".
    5) Before you EVER post an idea, take pictures of the script, pictures and entirety of the idea as you present it. Put it in an envelope and MAIL it to yourself. This creates a legal (Federal government) time stamp of when the idea is recorded. Do not ever open the envelope unless you are in the presence of a lawyer or notary.

    Finally, remembering that anything offered on the internet is irretrievably public domain... decide if you want to fight it.

    Since you have not done this for your tights idea, the only thing you can do is email the poster with specific link and wording you want her to edit into the script. You can also tag her post in comments with the link to the original. (Stay friendly-You want people on your side.) Ask your friends to "like: your comment so it goes to the top.

    Again (and sadly) the internet is public domain. Once you post it, you no longer really own it. You can be angry or get involved to make sure your idea's are hard to copy, easy to trace and work on the future of imminent domain with elected representatives, much like the singers and songwriters did to stop radio stations from streaming live without paying extra royalties...

    Good luck.

    What an interesting question. It took me a moment to realize that I rarely let myself feel proud of my accomplishments!

    I am terribly proud of my house. It was a NASTY little fixer upper that no one else wanted. But, it had an AMAZING view. My new neighbors thought I was crazy when I had some of the huge trees taken out... until they saw the view it opened up. My grandpa and I built the deck together.

    Everyone thought I was just plain nuts, but not anymore. I even had a local contractor ask me to sell. I still have tons of work to do but am now married to a lovely man who takes pride in our home and is an equal partner at my side.

    Thanks Fathima for giving me this moment to remember, stop and be proud. =)

    Kerring Kards? Just a first shot, I'll think on it.

    For clarity: You are trying to download a pattern from C0&K? Or upload a pattern of your own? Or from another site? (If another site, leave a link here and I'll be happy to investigate.)

    Sounds like a dream trip!

    I've made mistakes. One I've tried to fix (version logged as creation) and one I removed. Never intentional, just either could not find it under the title researched or over enthusiastic.

    I think it would be very appropriate to have a moderator extend a very gentle reminder about pictures. Or supply a missing link to "Versions" (if it's from this site). I would hope someone would do that for me if I had anything on here that was considered questionable!

    I prefer to think that people are honest and just confused. What is the benefit to putting stolen pictures here? It's not like we're paid...lol!
