SEPTVSN - IT's HERE! OFFICIAL VSN CHAT THREAD

[denier]

can i pick a winner even if i can't comment on everyones card? it's taking at least 10 minutes per comment and i have high speed. i still don't know how i'm going to chose but that a whole other story. i will get around to commenting on these cards as soon as it lets me!!! getting frustrated....

[Amanda_Sewell]

Heck yeah, but you have to come like a week in advance to get over the jet lag and be ready to play . . . ;)

[KarrieLyne]

Silly question, since I should have checked this BEFORE vsn but....does anyone off hand know what pixel size we need to use to upload? It is taking forever and I feel like if I resize them myself, it would go faster???? Anyone know the size?

[Dorinda]

It is the traffic on the gallery not the pixel size or file size, the gallery software resizes automatically

Yeah, just work on commenting on all of them in the next few days or so! ;)

Okay I have to admit...I haven't done any challenges :( BUT... I have done a few pages for my scrapbook. I have checked each of the challenges as they have gone up and have them saved in a file on my computer for later. maybe tomorrow morning??? I have a folder for each VSN there has been with all of the challenges in it.
The creations that everyone has made tonight are great!! It is why I have been scrapbooking...inspiration to do so!!!

Keep up all the great work EVERYONE!!!

[Amanda_Sewell]

I do mine as 400x300 and they go pretty fast ;)

[Amanda_Sewell]

thats good for adding a thumbnail to a forum post but it doesn't matter in the gallery uploads. From what Daven and Jenn have posted before, the software does the resizing

Kay, that sucks! At least my DH is watching DD, sort of. He is playing Xbox with his friend and the kids are in the same room climbing on them, etc. I am in my stamp room, gated off from the hooligans . . . DD just squealed. I think it is nearly bedtime. She needs a bath before bed though and I am not doing it

[stampin_chiquie]

[Wasatch Wizard]

We've had some awesome challenges tonight...I cant wait for it to settle down so I can see what all was made!!

Oh and BTW thanks so much to Glitter_Girl...can I tell ya how much glitter is floatin' around my stamp room right now?? Between my DD and I we made a royal mess!!

[Cicilisko]

This has been SO much fun, but I REALLY need to get to bed, I can�t believe it�s morning allready (7am over here) I wish I could have tryed more challenges, but I had to have a serious "hart-to-hart" whith my scanner.. And I�m sure I�m not as quick I might be in the evening.. You should see me dropping everything, talking to my computer LOL (if I ask nicely, it will upload faster, right?) Well, all I got made are in my gallery now, I hope, and I can get to bed. When I wake up, I will go see what you all have done, I�ve seen some, and ladies, you are so talented!!! Good night!

[Stampin Wrose]

Chocolate? Is there another challenge? I skipped the frame one.

[Farmwife]

Well I'm ready for 11:15... I skipped out on the last one, in fact I took that chocolate break! LOL...

Wow Cicilisko, I don't think I could stay awake that long just to make cards... thanks for joining in.

OK, so I'm covered in glitter, have pantyhose on with one leg, frames around my neck, Monopoly money in my pocket, stripes on my fingers (kinda missed the stamp pad a few times), cinnamon in my hair (and up my nose from smelling my card), wrapping paper all over my living room............bring on the next one!

Thank you already to all the hostesses, I'm having a blast! :cool:

[Amanda_Sewell]

Only one more, can you believe it . . . then the real work begins! Hostesses -- I wish you all the best ;)

[Amanda_Sewell]

Shoot, chatting to myself again, you all either went to bed, or are STAMPIN!!!!

[TMDMom]

Hey Manda Panda, I'm here. I didn't get started till REAL late, so I'm only doing four challenges. Trying to upload now.

[Amanda_Sewell]

Cool Beth! I am glad you came for some! It is only 9:38 here and I am SO tired. I still need to go comment in the gallery too. I think I am going to play on DH's laptop and watch a movie with him at the same time so I can relax after all this ;)

[scrown8301]

Hi ladies, sorry I couldn't do VSN tonight. My meeting ran until 8 instead of 6 and then I had to go to a friends house and ended up talking alot so I just got home. I am sooooo tired now so I won't be doing any of the challenges but I can't wait to see them all tomorrow. Night all!

[Amanda_Sewell]

I am pooped

[Amanda_Sewell]

Sharon, missed you! Hope you had an okay night

[Amanda_Sewell]

I am off to the gallery to look and comment ;)

Wait, in AZ you are in Pacific time? I admit, I'm ignorant...Eastern time is 12:45. If I'm gonna make it to church I need to get my butt in bed! But I wanna do the other challenges!

[Amanda_Sewell]

AZ is in AZ time, we never change, so we are either mountain or pacific depending on what time of year it is . . . ;)

Oh, I remember you saying that. I wish we didn't do daylight savings time either.

[TMDMom]

G'night and thanks!

[janiekay]

I had fun on the spur of the moment!!! Thanks for all the hard work that everyone put in for a night of stamping mania!!! I'm going to try to post my cards, and then I'm off to bed!

Night All!!!
