Past Themes are gray? How did I miss all those weeks? I thought this was a new feature.

They are all black right now Doug, but will be grey once they are completed.

edit: because they are links, it wouldn't let me color them grey. I've italicised them instead.

Good evening Young lady!

I haven't seen a lot of mentioning on CLOUDS!!! We've all layed on a grassy bank and stared up and them, looked at them and everyone has seen bunnys, birds, whales, etc. etc, etc. in them.

How about a Theme on Clouds?

Just a suggestion and a tiny, little question?

Dakota

Ok you two!!!! I sit corrected!! If I were younger and had better legs, I would stand corrected!

Just got carried away!! I had just taken a picture of some very interesting clouds and they were on my mind! anyway, what little there is left!!!

So I won't seem like too much of an Idiot, how about the close up of refections in someone's eye!

Huh? Huh How about that you smarty pants!! Well, how about it??
