It has been such a delight discovering Caedes, so much so, that I find it hard not to take a peek once in a while, but the whiles have become a fixation. There is so much talent here, and logging on is a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere, regarding the comments, critiques, and the people I have met. I know this will irk some, but in the new age of personal blog sites, Caedes is a refreshing change, a virtual museum of artistry, rather than "What I did last night" etc. etc. It would be fun if you could add sounds or music to the images, but that would not be what Caedes is all about. Bravissimo from my seat.

I agree, I spend all my free time here! I love the placement of everything and the community atmosphere..I'm just as addicted to it as you!

Iona / Sandra : what a terrific idea!
I totally agree with you and feel the addiction strong for this site. It is unlike any other.
I have never met so many wonderful people of all ages, religions, races, etc-etc as I have here...and the talent and warmth that comes from here outshines them all.
Maybe we will never see music or sound with the images, but with many, the sounds are almost possible...and the scent of the flowers. Corny....{maybe} but this site cannot be topped. I am also very happy to say that Ms Sandra is a brilliant...super-intelligent and very talented young lady and a wonderful friend! :)

Yeah, this site is addictive, I tried not logging onto caedes.net for a week, I ended up with the D.T.s.

You ended up with a brand new digital theater system? Not bad! I might try that out some day. :p Atm I'm too addicted to try though. I think I've logged on here almost every day for more then two years (barring maybe five or so). That is, since I first came here... :p

Seriously, it's very addictive to come here. All the great art, and all the great artists that come with it. ;) It's a great place to come to. The caedes withdrawal syndrom is a terribly thing though, maybe not as bad as delirium tremens, but close.

There should be a warning somewhere on the page. "May become addictive" flashing sign in the FAQs perhaps? ^_^ (And a crash course in how to maintain sanity if the site is down for a few hours...)

Yeah, me too. I haven't spent more than a daytime hour without coming here. =) Believe it or not, as asinine as it sounds, if I can't get to sleep, I walk to my laptop wrapped up in the bedclothes. Or I just keep my laptop by my bed with the wireless card in. I know, I know, it's insane, but it's true. =)

my problem is that i spend so much time on this site that my bottom has increased in size and hurts from sitting so long!!!!!

Tomorrow let's all take photos of our homes and see how badly CAEDES addiction has affected our housework......:)

{ Tom: I love the quote on your {profile-whatchacallit, and agree! :)

Hehe... I know exactly what you guys are talking about. It's more like my belly that have grown bigger the last years though...

And, I'll never take that shot I'm afraid. Would be far too embarrassing. :p You will have to trust me on my word that it's not a pretty sight... ^_^

*twitches*

1.) Why...thank you Sandra ! You'd be surprised how many people say that after meeting me ! ...Uhh...wait a sec ...what Jackie ? Oops ! Mybad ....you haven't met me formally yet ......You mean the site ! Oh yeah....THAT little thingy ...

2.) I propose Smell-A-Vision ! If we can't have Smilies ( !!!!! ) then can we have Smell-A-Vision ??!!

Smell-a-vision????? I made bean soup for dinner tonight.....better think about it babe....:)

*pins nose with a clothes peg*

'Yethh, thith thiite ith berry berry nithe ann ... ann ... ddicthtive.' :oP

(Holy smokes ... Rutgers? Nice, and welcome to the site. Better check back mid-term and let us know how the studies are going, we have a mobile crew of ninjas that can help with your 'affinity' if need be. Ohh, don't worry ... we will still be here come graduation. :o)) )

My eyes hurt I am on this site so much...eyes....site (sight) get it...tee hee! I have encountered the greatest folks here and some of the finest art. ~Waves~ and ;0) to all who frequent Caedes!

That's punny. :oP

uh… u don't want smell-a-vision right now… I've been working for 2 days in the same clothes. I've also been having w/drawal shakes from having to only check in here once or twice a day. nope, definitely think smell-o-vision would be bad idea. gimme 15 min though and it'll be allllll better 8•P

Hello, my name is Keith & where's the coffee ?

If I'm making coffee, you gotta come get it .....I'll be darned if I'm carrying a hot cup of java all the way to Aussie land on Anzac Day ! LOL

LOL! I know I'm a Caedes addict. It's pretty bad when I'm up by 5:15 every day for work, then on the weekends when I don't have to work I lie in bed in the morning and toss and turn thinking about this crazy site. Then I'm usually online by at least 6:30 am when I could be sleeping in. Pretty crazy, huh? Btw, Happy Anzac Day, and Happy Anniversary Jac!..;D

Geez I have to swim over to get my cup of coffee... lol... Thanks guys.. having an anzac biscuit with my cuppa right now... I sometimes sneak on here when im supposed to be doing paperwork at work... lol...

LMAO!! For shame!!..more paper clip shots, hey, I know, you could do the pushpin thing next time..=P They keep me locked out of the comps at work, so I never get the chance to. LOL!

<--- Has been known to use the boss's computer in his office to check in on the site at lunch break. :cP

Woo-hoo !! Blackmail opportunities !! That Smell-A-Vision's looking pretty darn good ....:)

<------ Was known a few months ago to get out of class to check on here

<------ Is known to torture laptops by keeping them on for nine hours in sweltering heat

*innocent look* I would neverrrrrrrr do any of those things.

*attempts to keep straight face*

LMAO! Suuuuure!!! Cat, get back to work!!!..=PP

*ponders the use of 'may' in the post* What do you mean 'may become addicting'?

Warning!!! The Title of this Topic may be Misleading

I will soon Larry… I just need a lil break, k? 8•)

Okay, take one for me while you're at it!..=D

NP! Hey… I wonder if I could make a living doing that… *goes off to ponder the possibilities*

about the addicting thing...um, your warning was a little late for me..im already in the death spiral

Then I'm dead. You mean Geri is actually, like, a 2000-year-old mummy?
