2009 Christmas Card List-Tally Up!

[Becks]

Yeah, well, we'll see how the fall goes.... I won't have any vacation time to use by then...

So you say...

Thanks Pederson, Raps, and JM

I just provide the playground. Everyone else provides the skills, expertise, determination, and the community.

I have 72 cards that I got after Christmas last year. Plus some random leftovers from previous years.

WHEEEEEE...ALL SIGNED UP!

I see you had to lose your exclamation point. That's sad.

I almost had to lose the spaces in my name.

"IrvingPatrickFreleigh" doesn't work quite as well for me.

That just doesn't have quite the same ring to it, Irv. . .but we know who you are and we love you anyways.

Actually, you can thank Evil Queen for the space fix. I had her try it out back in April/May, and she ran into the same problem. That's why it was fixed so easily once I found out the problem.

Unfortunately, I didn't test for that !, so I don't have the fix. I know who to talk to now, and hopefully will have it soon, but can't promise anything as yet.

I think everybody just appreciates all the work you've put in over the past year, Pedersen.

Even if a fix wasn't possible for either the space or the '!', I think a slight change in the appearance of a username is a small inconvenience when stacked up against all the sweat you've put into this on your own time with no other benefit to you than the satisfaction of having created this program.

Well, we know who you are, at least ...


I keed, I keed...

Where would this list be without the spacey?

Wooo! Signed up!

Pedersen, love the sign up tool. That touch to release the list fitted for labels is amazing! Can't wait to take advantage of that! Thank you!

Hey, cool! I missed that part!

Though I kinda like addressing the cards...I'm weird, I guess. I do still have some leftover return address labels, though. I'm sure not enough for everyone, though. I got 'em for a buck a sheet at Michael's last year so I'll have to see if they have more this year.

Oh ho? How do you do that? I so gotta try that when I'm making out my card. Hand-writing addresses on envelopes gets tiring after a while, plus I make mistakes and have to start over time to time.

Plus it would be a great way to keep track of how many cards I've made up. When the labels are gone, no more cards to write out.

From page 4(?):

Something else new is happening with the list this year, AA. And it should help to make life easier, in a big way. The list, as has been noted, is going to be automatically generated. What hasn't been mentioned is that it's going to be sent to you as a PDF, formatted to fit Avery 8160 labels. At the least, addressing envelopes should be much easier this year.

Hey, that's a good point. I might use labels after all...

[calulu]

Woohoo!! I just signed up too! This is going to be fun.

From page 4(?):

Hey, BookstoreEscapee, do me a favor? Edit your post. I typed the wrong label type in. They're formatted to use Avery 8160 labels, not the other one I said. Had that name stuck on my brain for some reason.

I'm going to use it for the envelopes, at least. Much better to make sure that the cards get there, and don't get lost due to my horrendous handwriting.

Woohoo!! I just signed up too! This is going to be fun.

Woohoo! We've just two pages of labels with that one. 31 people on the list so far
