I just wanted to apologize for my recent lack of participation in the site. Life is hectic as of late, but I really do want to invest into the Caedes community as a whole and continue to share my work. I'm asking for everyone to forgive me who I haven't gotten back to on images, and that I give you my thanks here.

I also wanted to thank the entire community for believing in me. I'd been getting extremely frustrated with my work lately, well lack of it, and was about to give up on it. But the recent silent contest by Peter (DigitalFX) and his willingness to give me a tool to further my work has really spurred me to continue on. I love this site and the people that belong to it - your support has meant more than the world to me. Thank you isn't enough, so I hope my work can be of some benefit as a thank you for everything.

Sincerely,
Bethany

No need to apologise for anything.. Life sometimes just jumps up, and hits you in the face.. You are a fantasticly talented artist.. We will wait till you have time again.. You must never give up..

Agree with Ann.. no apologies needed, we all have lives outside of the net and sometimes it does get very hectic.. and real life is a priority... now I'll say it again.. never give up your art.. even if you are in a blank zone.. still do it.. it will come back to you... your a very talented artist little sis... and you will go far in the art world.. you deserved that win... im looking forward to more of your fantastic work to add to my folder.. =) so from big sis to little sis.. all the very best to you...

Did you get the note from Peter that says I get to use the program on the odd days of the month .. no? .. well I got it

tomorrows odd .. and it's getting late ... if i don't get it in time, then you'll have something to apologize for .. but not NOW ..

a couple more hours, maybe

Every day that you are around is an odd day, Keifer...

LOL

rofl- its more of a choice between odd and unusually? odd. :)

Sure is fun though.. Impossible to get bored when Keifer is around..

I hear Keifer's being put up as site mascot & he gets to wear a full sized costume & everything !! And on parade days he gets to go around & throw candy to all the kiddies......And when the Presidential Candidates swing through during election years Keifer will be hired to lead the cheers !!!

What a guy......

poor poor Bethany .. getting all these messages to return and read well wishers send her off into life with a software box under one arm

only to read about Presidents and Candy

before you type ... think of the Bethany's of the world

*Thinks of Bethany and wishes her the best with her work* (Looks forward to the results)

But, honestly, who would miss a chance to rib Keifer?

Not Moi...

As I too wish Bethany the best of luck, irregardless of candy & Presidents

AND Irregardless of the guilt trip he is currently trying to unload on ME

lol keith, well, I'm not sure about the odd days (would I have to send you the program every other day?) Might get a little complicated ;-) I say forget mascot, he should be the presidential candidate. But on a serious note, thank you all for the support, and I still love ya =)

Keith For President eh? you whacky kids - it just might work!

** passes Keith a concealed radio mic and creased jacket **

I'm voting for Keith..

LOL.. now that you told him that now i wont hear the end of it... he wont be able to get his big head through the door.... hang on a sec.. if that makes his head swell then the ears on baby big ears wont stick out as much... hehehehehehe

I dunno......is he bribable?? All the decent politicians are, you know, in one way or another.....

oh he is very bribable..... LOL

Jacqueline, if you're concerned about his ears sticking out, * poor baby * & maybe the other littlies making fun of him, why we could do a little pre-emptive plastic sugery.....sort of.

We'll just slop gobs of honey on his head & glue his ears down.....course he'll get kinda itchy in the summer, but the twitching might be fun to watch.....

What'dya think ?!

sounds like a plan to me... =D .. i'll hold him down and you can glue him... LOL

LOL My husband's sympathies are with Keith.....must be some kind of a guy thing

You catch him & hold him down & I'll grab a jar of honey.....And we'll both chant Humpty Dumpty rhymes while we do it to take his mind off it.....

hehehehe sounds a good idea... Hey we should start a thread called "Lets get keith.." lol... if you want to torture him even more.. we can put headphones on him and play kylie monogue... hehehehe

Bethany ... what can I say, except, I'm sorry for this .. and ... I wouldn't want the authorities to link you to this conspiracy to "honey" some poor bloke .. honeying without proper government sanction is a crime, as well a sticky .. and I don't think they let you bring your own copy of Photoshop into Sing Sing Prison .. you have to use what they give you .. (photoshop 4 .. but, don't ask me how I know that .. *WINK*)

so ..

if the odd days are hard to do we'll switch and you can have it on the oddies (as they say in Australia) .. but we have to decide soon ..

I've just been told you guys are not going to cover me in honey !!!!

(*SLAMS DOOR*)
(*OPENS DOOR*)
I HATE YOU !!!
(*SLAMS DOOR*)
(*OPENS DOOR*)
can one of you drive Bethany and I to the mall?
no?
(*SLAMS DOOR*)
(*OPENS DOOR*)
I HATE YOU !!!
(*SLAMS DOOR*)

LOL.... settle petal.. =)

Somebody has to say this.....

* OH HONEY *


Besides, this is the wrong place for a " Let's Get Keith " thread....doesn't that belong on the Member Initiated Projects Page ?

Or it could possibly be a New Contest.....

honey?

Would that be the good stuff from New Zealand, or a few jars of Gales?

With or without the wax comb??

Wow, you guys are nice, thinking of using the good stuff & all.....I was just gonna buy a case of that cheapie Sue Bee stuff in the plastic container shaped like a bear......snip off the top of his hat & you aim that stuff like nobody's business ........We could have contests to see where we hit....

hahahaha.. oh he would love that...

Are you kidding ?! We'd ALL love that......

lol, you guys crack me up

That was the whole idea.. Life and art is to be enjoyed..

Amen brother !! Uh....Sister !!

And on a more personel note, I'd like to take this time to apologize to Keifer for not wishing him a Happy Thanksgiving before Thursday. I am sorry, the time just slipped away from me.

So, Keith, did ya have a nice holiday with your family ? Listen, can you do me a favor, next time you see your dad you be sure & tell him I think he was robbed ....in "92...., was it ? I voted for him, in fact, I think I've still got a " Ross Perot for President " button around here somewhere.......

I'll look
