Sometimes I wonder about things. I mean why isn't there an easier way to do things sometimes. Like on here and the gadgets. I can add html but I can't add html to a gadget and get it so it stays on my page. I know after a certain amount of post those will have to be redone.
It's just frustrating sometimes. I forgot how to add a gadget on here. Once I remembered how it didn't matter. Made a lovely +Celtic Dragonfly. Right now it can be seen at +http://www.zazzle.com/arwensgraphicdesigns
When I can I will add it to the shop at +CafePress
I didn't realize you can change the background on +twitter. Sasha my roomie discovered that one. So I took a minute and did it. Shes exploring twitter now. Up to 230 followers I think it was. I figure the more the merrier to get the word out :D
Figured out the pricing on cafepress. It is going to be a long range project because there is alot of editing that will have to be done. I'll get there. My computer has had some wonkie moments. Cursor has fits. Even when the mouse is unplugged and I'm not touching anything. Way weird and frustrating let me tell yas.
Trying to work on some more celtic designs as well as St Paddy days designs. And what ever else strikes our fancy in the mean time. Reminds me if anyone has a personal they want added to the shops just let me know. I can make things private so just you can get that mug with you child's name or photo. Customization is something we are willing to do. Just haven't had anyone take us up on it yet.
Okies has things to do and never seems to be enough time to do them. Take care out there til next time.

Starting over
This has been a day of starting over. Mike says I should post stuff like this on here so I am. First I had started some words I was trying to color for Valentines. I started it last night and thought I was half way done when I saved it before bed. Well I got up and went to work on it today and I realized I was missing 2 lines from my phrase. Not something I picked up on last night let me tell yas oi. So I started over. At least I knew what I wanted to say. Had book marked the site so was easy enough to look up the phrase again. I got to playing with backgrounds and all that. I realized light background and darker words makes it easier to cut out. I could have had it done last night in half the time if I had done it like that then. If that makes since at all. Does to me ;) Sure was alot easier in the light of day cutting it out. Amazing how you start something at night and its difficult and the next day you find an easier way to do it.
My second start over today had to do with +http://www.zazzle.com/arwensgraphicdesigns
I uploaded a couple of valentines for us. It's getting close it is. Valentines day that is. Anyways I usually have it so it's not customizable. Tho maybe now I'm thinking i need to rethink that. I found out if you set it for non customizable no one can add words to their cards. Which for cards thats a must. I'm not sure what else customizable is a must for but I'm sure I'll find out. So that ment I had to redo all of my cards at zazzle. Which thank the good lord wasn't as many as it could have been. Thinking address labels are next.
Anyways early day tomorrow. Nos Da all.

Hey all it's me again.
Oi there's nothing worse than realizing you've been doing something wrong for a good long while. I joined +Pinterest a while back. Looks like till last night I have been doing it wrong because I only have 3 pins. Note to self create a board first. OI!!! No since crying over spilt milk but it is a bit discouraging. Here I thought I was posting my shop items on there. Live and learn right? Here's hoping I have it sussed this time.
I have also been playing alittle bit with shop background colors on +Zazzle. Suggestions and comments most welcome. http://www.zazzle.com/arwensgraphicdesigns
Let me know what you think. Newest design image is skull rose. Can even be found on a postage stamp :)
Everything should now be in folders now. Tho not sure how I am going to do things after Valentines. Mixed up mugs between home and office. One of those things that I thought could go into both sections. Added the skull rose to +CafePress as well.
It is in the auto section of the shop at http://www.cafepress.com/arwensgraphicdesigns1
as well as at the marketplace at
http://www.cafepress.com/sk/arwensgraphicdesigns I know the shop is more work and not as recognized as the marketplace but I do like it better. The marketplace has 1 image that they put on all things. The shop I personally go in and change the sizes of things till they look good or they get pulled. If you see anything on the marketplace you would like to see fit better just give me a holler and I will do my best to do that for you. That's all for now. Things to do.

New Look
Hey all
Trying a new look. We shall see how long I keep this one :D Been trying to look into online ways to store my pictures, images, and music. Looks like the only way is to pay for it. Skydrive threw hotmail at least makes it 25 GB for a year. Some of those sites wanted that for a month and less than 25 GB. Was just trying to find a way to do this backing up without a million dvds kicking about. Not as easy as I thought. Anyways it sounds like I have to wait till I can get some money to do it. I have a bunch of shop images and my music for +RadioFreeWales. I figure one day we might start that up again. The ever popular dollar is what stops us. In so many things.
I got a great pic from our friend Pete off of facebook.
A skull rose image. I cut it out and did a tiny bit of tinkering to it. Its pretty cool. Up on both +Zazzle and +CafePress. Off to doing other things. Post again when I can.

Hello everyone out in blogger land. It has been a few days since the last time I was on here. Not alot has happened around here. Life goes on as they say. Was told about this site --
www.wordle.net.
It has its possibilities. Can take a bunch of words and make a word picture out of it. Only way to save them is with a screen shot tho. Been spending my time trying to get some of this data on my computer saved. Been uploading alot of my pictures to skydrive online. Its connected to my hotmail account.
Went to my first Mardi Gras in Fl this weekend. It was ok. Not a huge party type person. To much drinking and no money to do much. Parade was ok. Got a few beads from it. Alot of grabby hands. Some of the throwers threw them a bit hard. Smarts a bit
when getting smacked upside the head with them.
Doing my best to post the sales i find on facebook and twitter for the shops at +zazzle.com and +cafepress.com. Please don't forget to check out Arwens Graphic Designs at both links. Any suggestions or request just give me a holler on here or on those sites.
Think this is a good ramble for a min. Has things to do. Take care out there in blogger land. Till next time
