Dear
Members,
June 24, 2010 Just a quick note: I found a great resource for LOGOS. We've been sued so many times and screamed at a thousand more, it's amzing there is another company offering logos out there. And they do it better than us. Please visit and bookmark : Seek Logo.com June 22, 2010 ****URGENT*** Our usual instructions for downloading a design are to right click and use SAVE TARGET or SAVE LINK AS. If you employ MS Explorer, ignore this message: FIRE FOX browsers will not download the design in this fashion. If you use Fire Fox simply click directly on the file format you want and it will then be downloaded. If you have been upset because the files you have tried to take give you and error message (NOT THE PROPER TYPE) that's the reason why.
June 19, 2010 WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR LOOK? Got tighter, huh? I'm not doing this to prove I'm worth my $150 weekly paycheck - but it helps, right? What you're seeing and experiencing is another first for the industry - but not the Net. I figured while redoing the entire site anyway with the FAST SEARCH project, why not make us iPOD able and all hand held devices. So that's the story. When you're at your next client's home or on the golf course, and need to show them a design now there's no waiting to get at a computer. Pull out your phone. This will take some time, yet it will be finished long before the FAST SEARCH - that's for sure! Our new FaceBook account will be managed by Cathy. Oh, by the way, some of you have been asking to see newly posted design BEFORE I post them. I keep the next posting in a hidden file until I post them at: notpostedyet.htm I update the file often; it is a working file. I do not suggest you rely on it because it might look very different when I finally merge it into the What's New. But, hey, knock yourself out. June 4, 2010 Just a quick update: *: The big website in the sky is working fine. Any issues contact me. So far, I cannot prevent multiple log ins so..... *: I'm bringing back ADSTONE - you don't have to log in every time you move from pages to designs - You may want to bookmark the site in case the big site goes down or has troubles again. The location is http://www.mydrawingboardmirror.com Because this site resides in my bed room, it will operate daily from 10AM until 10PM. EST. Requests to leave it on 24 hours will be gladly honored. *: While bringing up the old ADSTONE, I found 1,400 designs we thought had been lost. They are not posted and many are not in eps, ai or 2d format. Fixing these and posting them will remian on my back burner. *: Like I need more work, right? I am going to redesign the site so that you new users (The China guys especially) can clearly view the Board via hand-held devices. I would love one or more of you to help me by viewing my new files. I haven't the bucks for those things. Hmmm... does the membership want to buy...wait, I'm too old for those silly, tiny, tedious devices. Anyone want to help?
June 3. 2010 June 2. 2010 Every time we change to a new server, I pray no one notices. Apparently, a lot of you noticed. Unfortunately, our hosting company installed new software and they and we are baffled. Please hang in there. Hopefully we'll be pretty-much normal very soon. May 5, 2010 At this time each year I post the new user access fees. As it stands presently, there are no changes to to mention. I say this for a reason. You'll notice I have few new designs to post and I did very little work over at the FAST SEARCH area. Yet I have been consumed with Board business - and not at calculating fees. That was figured out last December. I am not at liberty to say what ties me up at this time. And, yes, I am being intentionally mysterious because I may have to come back later with all kinds of news as well as a change to the access fees. Just covering my back here, folks. Still I hope to have some exciting news for y'all by month's end. B i l l 's Work : roses734 M Y W O R K: IBEW, usnx, usnx2, usnx3,
April 5, 2010 You guys put me on a one day schedule .. think was in 2004. But the FAST SEARCH project has me working hard everyday - and loving it and not charging you for my time. This is a really nice area. You'd think I've have no time at all for new postings - that's only half true. As I go through the designs posted and create web pages around them in the new area, I'm finding many designs that are corrupt and/or not in all popular formats. Know why? Because Gerber donated their system to us in 1994. Before that we never dealt with PLT or EPS files. So I've been converting and re-posting like a mad man. Which? Literally hundreds. Best I can do to show you what I've been up to is to say that all the pages listed HERE have been all revised. Each and every design found on everyone of those pages has been confirmed to be valid, then posted on general pages in the FAST SEARCH area and very often pages were created around each design. March 5, 2010 My dearest mentors were Roy Buzwell, Don Sheriff and "Little Hugo" Calderara. The last two being the closest and most influential. And Hugo being the more famous as he and Mike Colonna are the artists who sprung the modern look of sand carving upon the world in the 1930's. One day "Little Hugo" and I had finished spending an entire week redecorating one of my dad's showrooms. No small feat as I was just a kid and Hugo a midget. We had embarked on the project because St. Charles Memorials did under 2% of my Dad's monument business. We wanted to turn that around - which never happened. After we had finished our task, Hugo and I plopped atop a couple of 1-8x2-0s and Hugo sighed, "Looks great. Now all we need is a customer." As I mentioned in the pervious WHAT'S NEW, I am plugging away at this new FAST SEARCH project. It is really one of those impossible dreams thingies. So far I've recreated 50 pages with like 1000 yet to go - and that grows in number as new designs fill old pages. But no one has commented on FAST CONNECT. There haven't been new members (nothing new) or even a peek from staffers like James or Cathy. I'm not discouraged. I'm one of those guys who grew up awaiting results ... which seldom come. Hence forward whenever I post new designs they will be posted ONLY into the Fast Search area. (except for the first two of my work posted below this one last time.) B i l l 's Work : roses734 M Y W O R K: dpolice, fixed missing design, And all of this plus.

Gosh, I'm been doing this since 1981 - except for when Jimmy took over for a spell in 1988 and Sam & Lori did it for a time in 1994. Not sure if ShelbyM ever handled the What's New page, but he sure did a lot of other things back then in the last century. Been a lovely relationship.
