Judy W.	May 07, 2009 12:28 PM Can we ask people who are new - or even old - what they expect from this group?? Truly, it needs some oooomph!!! IMO [ send green star]
Conni M.	February 02, 2009 4:10 PM Name change! 4:01 PM (Formerly Wildflowers-Horticulture) We have changed the name to The Garden! This way we can include all varieties of flowers, shrubs etc! How about adding gardening tips, graphics etc! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	HI DEAR HOSTS February 02, 2009 2:21 PM *YES, I UNDERSTAND . THAT'S WHY I SAID BELOW ABOUT THE FLOWERS TOGETHER WITH THE WILD FLOWERS .LEONI ALREADY PUT ROSES THERE . I DIDN'T POSTMORE FLOWERS CAUSE I THOUGHT I WOULD SPOIL THE TOPIC .* ALSO, THAT'S WHY, BEFORE THIS CONVERSATION, I ADDED RAIN AND RAINBOW TO SUNSETS AND SUNRISES. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE OK TOGETHER . AND HOW MANY MORE SUNRISES WOULD I FIND ? NOW THERE IS MORE TO POST AT THE SAME PLACE .I JUST ADDED TO THE TOPIC) *(AH ! I'M ADDING SOME MORE "TAGS", AND GRAPHICS AT THE "SHOP ". THEY CAN STILL HAVE SOME MORE . NOW, "FANTASTIC" , I THOUGHT IT WAS A DIFFERENT SUBJECT)* *HUGS. I'M TIRED TO TYPE--LOL-- WILL TALK MORE LATER.* [ send green star]
Eliz K.	February 01, 2009 9:31 PM Hi Conni, Leonor, Judy and Nan! I hope you are all well. I am glad I am able to post. I have been having such a hard time doing so. Yes, Conni, you are right. If we have a room already there with cats/kittens we do not need another one. I will work on that one. Leonor, I love flowers. Conni had a good idea calling it the Garden. Flowers, trees, bushes, veggies, etc. could be put there and any info anyone cares to share. I will take links from "Your Garden" and post it there also. Judy, what wonderful ideas.Crazy thoughts should be interesting. I like the story idea too. If poeple don't have a pic to go with what they write can they still post? Some people have great ideas and not the pic/graphic to go with it. Maybe if someone writes something without a graphic, the next person who wants to post might be able to find a graphic to go with whatever was already written or connect it in some way. HI Nan! Hope things are well. Pop in here and let us know your in put please. Love all the rooms opening up and all the graphics. [ send green star]
Conni M.	February 01, 2009 8:27 PM Judy..I have crazy thoughts every day! LOL. I also like the story idea using just a few words and letting next person take it from there and so on. Leonor..as Judy said, if a room is full just start another one with the same title. If the Wildflower Room is only for wildflowers why not have a garden where all flowers, bushes etc could be shared? Graphics, tips etc? [ send green star]
Judy W.	January 30, 2009 5:08 PM Yes, I think I mentioned, that I totally agree with keeping the subjects sort of ...not limited....but not going all over the place with all sorts of threads. It is very easy to number the threads - kittens #1 or if that gets way too long, kittens #2, so people will know to go back and check out the previous kittens thread. Wild animals should be wild, etc., but we should check so we are not duplicating threads, or even changing them from what they started out to be. Just my opinion..... how about a thread of our crazy thoughts? If you have a silly thhought post it.... or not, or we could start a STORY, using 3 or 4 words and graphics to go with it - only if you wish...... What do you think?? I like the new format because I can get colored type, and more variety. Sometimes I will just do it on an email form and cut and paste.... [ send green star]
Leonor A.	CONNI AND NANCY January 30, 2009 4:12 PM WELL, IT'S NOT REALLY AN IMPUT, CONNI; CAUSE AS I HAD SAID, THE BIRDS AND BIRDS HOUSES WERE ALMOST A 100 , SO HOW CAN WE ADD ? BUT... OTHERWISE ( NOW ,YES, IT'S MY IMPUT --LOL--), I AGREE WITH SIMILAR TOPICS BEING TOGETHER, IF THERE IS ROOM . FOR INSTANCE, I THOUGHT OF A FLOWERS ROOM, BUT THERE IS ONE SIMILAR - A BIT DIFFERENT, BUT SINCE THERE WERE ROSES ADDED TO IT ( THE TOPIC WAS WILD FLOWERS AND..., BY NANCY), IF NANCY DOESN'T MIND, ALL KIND OF FLOWERE COULD BE ADDED. WHAT DO U THINK, NANCY ? IT'S JUST AN IDEA... BUT IF U'RE GOING TO CONTINUE WITH THE ORIGINAL TOPIC, THEN FORGET IT AND SORRY, SWEET. I LOVE YOUR MUSIC THREAD, AND OTHERS; DON'T CONTRIBUTE MORE CAUSE OF COMPUTER TIME AND PC'S WASTING MY TIME, NOT WORKING WRITE. LIGHT AND LOVE TO ALL. [ send green star]
Conni M.	Duplicating Rooms January 30, 2009 1:21 PM Lately we have been opening new threads for topics that already exist. There is The Cat Room and a Dog/Puppy Room There is also a The Horse Room and the Castle Wildlife Preserve which is for animals that are not domestic. A new room has opened that is called Room of Animals~ Kittens/ Puppies & Many More .We recently had the same thing with the bird rooms. The problem with this is many awesome graphics have been posted in the existing rooms and then a new room of the same topic is opened and people don't know which one to use. I think we need to double check "ROOMS" before we open a new one. If there is one in archives, bring in out of archives and add to it before opening a new one. It is also easier to keep the directory organized this way. This is just my opinion that I am sharing. Any input Hosts? [ send green star]
Conni M.	New Rooms in the Castle January 25, 2009 5:12 PM Love of the Irish Room~St. Patrick's Day~ Recipes,... Smile & Be Happy Room~~ Inspirational Corner 2 , and Fantastic . [ send green star]
Eliz K.	January 20, 2009 8:17 PM HI Leonor! Sorry I have not responded sooner. I haven't been on much. I just pop in quickly and pop out. Thanks for letting me know about the name changes. I will make note of them. As for posting graphics, you can open up whatever you like. If you need another room go right ahead. No need to ask. You don't need to delete anything unless you want to. If it has to do with space on your computer or if it is space on photobucket you need let me know. I can add some to my photobucket. Any time you can be here is great. I really appreciate all that you do. We will be here. [ send green star]

Eliz K.	January 17, 2009 9:15 PM Welcome Judy!!! So glad to have you Co-Hosting with us at The Castle. Have fun. Catch up with you in one of the rooms. [ send green star]
Conni M.	Welcome Judy....our newest Host!! January 17, 2009 7:03 PM [ send green star]
Eliz K.	November 17, 2008 10:40 PM HI Ladies! Left a message on the Rooms thread. Let me know what you think. [ send green star]
Conni M.	October 07, 2008 9:21 PM Nancy, Leonor and Eliz...sorry I missed you! I was taking a latenight stroll around the Castle before turning in for the night. Love the butterfly! [ send green star]
Eliz K.	August 23, 2008 10:54 PM Hi Ladies! I just wanted to let you know that I can not send any or respond to any message that you guys sent me. I don't know why. I let Care2 know so hopefully this gets fixed real soon. Leonor,you have my home email so you can notify me there of anything if you want.Conni, if you want mine let Leonor know and she can give it to ya. I don't want to put it here. And it seems the IM is not working right now.See ya roaming the halls. I need to go to the spa to relax. [ send green star]
Eliz K.	August 21, 2008 5:08 PM So keep it we will! Thanks for the input Ladies! I like the old format better and it does seem to be working ok now.Thank Goodness! I will be on later. Hopefully I will see someone here. Hugs [ send green star]
Conni M.	August 21, 2008 4:48 PM I like the old format better. The one positive thing about the new format is that whle you are replying to a topic you can scroll back to the previous posts. The old format has been fixed, the toolbar is back, and everything is back to normal. My vote is to keep it like it is. Hugs to you and all!! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	August 21, 2008 2:47 PM HELLO, JUDY , IT IS ALWAYS GOOD TO FIND YOU AROUND . AS FOR THE VOTE, ELIZ , I GIVE MINE TO OTHERS TO DECIDE, CAUSE I DON'T KNOW ALL THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BOTH .HUGS, GIRLS . [ send green star]
Eliz K.	August 20, 2008 9:04 PM HI Conni, Leonor and Judy! Conni, I will try to think of some new things. Does anyone know a language they could teach? I would love to learn a new language. Leonor,you are right about having to many groups. I try to pop in on all the groups I am on everytime I am on my computer. Even if it is just to say Hi. It is hard to keep up. I received your email about the Care2 change Conni. I would love to keep the old format as I find it easier to use. What do you guys think? I will try to post a pic and see what happens. The pic shows up without clicking on Basic Editor. How about a vote on changing over? I value your opinion. [ send green star]
Judy W.	Hi August 20, 2008 8:37 PM Hello Friends, I was riding by and wanted to drop in to say Hello. Been busy the last few days...so it is nice to be back. Judy [ send green star]
Conni M.	August 12, 2008 7:54 PM Leonor..your input is always useful! I know that it is hard to keep up with all groups. In many of my groups, I pop in everyday and chat, but in many others I just pop in everyday and leave a graphic. As long as the core members of the group are happy, I guess that is what really matters! Thank you for responding..you made me feel better! Hugs! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	CONNI August 12, 2008 4:23 PM AH.. CONNI... I'M AFRAID I CAN'T HELP, BUT WILL THINK. I GUESS THIS IS THE PROBLEM OF ALL THE GROUPS--REMEMBER UNITY ? WE TALKED TO OURSELVES IN ALL 5 OF THEM .HERE, THERE ARE SO MANY DIFFERENT CHOICES TO OFFER... I THINK THE ONLY GROUPS THAT HAVE MOVEMENT, ARE THE HEALING GROUPS --I MEAN, THEY HAD MEMBERS, BUT NOT PARTICIPATION . SOME PRAYERS GROUP, DO. AND THE ONES THAT MAKE GRAPHICS, ALSO .PEOPLE GET INTO TOO MANY GROUPS, AND DON'T VISIT OFTEN . I'M AN EXAMPLE. DO YOU VISIT YOURS ?--NO TIME, RIGHT ?I THINK IT IS THE SAME WITH EVERY BODY . HERE WE HAVE SOME THAT VISIT--I HAVE FRIENDS FROM HERE .YES, YOUR IDEA IS GOOD - SOME CONVERSATION . WE HAVE MEMBERS WHO PARTICIPATE A LOT LIKE NANCY, SHARON, SUSAN , BRENDA ,AND SOME NEW ONES (MADE SMALLER LETTERS,CAUSE IT WAS GETTING TOO LONG, LOL ) THE ROOMS WE HAVE HERE ARE VERY GOOD, YOU KNOW IT WHEN SOMEBODY WRITES A COMMENT.DON'T " PANIC". NEW IDEAS WILL COME AS SOME WILL GO . WELL I WANS'T OF ANY HELP, HUN . PERHAPS MAKE YOU NOT TO WORRY SO MUCH. [ send green star]
Conni M.	Ideas?? August 12, 2008 7:18 AM I have reactivated and blue pinned the Birthday Room. It may not get many posts, but if it isn't there we can't keep up with birthdays. I have updated August and I will get the overall list updated soon. I suggested sending green stars or a greeting to members for their birthday. I am trying to think of a way to get more members active...any suggestions? I am opening a All Seasons Room so we can share what is going on where we live. We have fantastic graphics here in the Castle, but I am trying to think of other "Rooms of Interest" for those who are not inclined to do graphics. Help wanted please!! LOL. Have a great day...talk to you later. [ send green star]
Conni M.	August 08, 2008 10:20 PM Have a great day!!! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	August 02, 2008 10:36 PM a GENERAL NEWS about the group, new things about a room, sounds very good , Eliz . so people get to know more than just in the chat room , sometimes, even checking the time of the last post, i miss things , LIKE QUESTIONS FOR INSTANCE [ send green star]
Eliz K.	August 02, 2008 10:26 PM Me again! Just saw Monica opened up a thread called news. Should we make a News room? [ send green star]
Eliz K.	Thanks Leonor! August 02, 2008 10:21 PM LOL,Leonor! You are funny. I am sure I forgot many threads. Feel free to update it as you guys wish. [ send green star]
Leonor A.	July 29, 2008 7:25 PM Wow, Eliz. That's a great job !you separated under subjects .Couldn't be better. Visible, easy to find... i'd never be able to organize it that way. Conni also does do it , but i know some body who never managed either: . well... Yes that's what i meant. the ones like ,with beauty recepies,for instance (didn't copy conni's yet ), are always insteresting to remain . well let me go to work . [ send green star]
Eliz K.	July 28, 2008 11:04 PM Hi Ladies! Leonor,did you enjoy your walk? Whatever threads that aren't active and you think they should be unpinned(if blue)then please feel free to do so. What you want to blue pin,the same goes,feel free to do so. I opened a new thread called Rooms. Please check it out and tell me what you think.We can update them the end of every month to keep them current. We will just copy and paste the old one and add new ones to it. And just delete the old one. Any changes to it? Be Well! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	July 28, 2008 8:54 PM Hey, our teacher . one more thing to learn . Also, i thought of something, reading your last recepie--the beauty one-- (my dog is biting me).these should be kept visible, cause they are always useful information . as well as how to make sentences shorter,above. have to walk the dog [ send green star]
Conni M.	July 28, 2008 6:05 PM Hello Ladies..If a thread has had no activity in 30 days, it can be archived. If it has a blue pin, it will not be archived. In order to archive it, the pin must be removed first. I like the idea of the Castle Store! [ send green star]
Leonor A.	July 28, 2008 3:38 PM IT SOUNDS GOOD TO ME . I NEVER HAD TO DEAL WITH THAT IN THE GROUPS, BEFORE . THERE WAS ALWAYS A GOOD SOUL TO DEAL WITH THAT IN THE HEALING GROUPS . AND YES, THE CASTLE SHOP SOUNDS MORE ATRACTIVE FOR PEOPLE TO GET IN AND CHOOSE WHAT THEY WANT . [ send green star]
Eliz K.	July 26, 2008 8:59 PM Hi Ladies! I saw Conni that you opened up Coffee Corner 2-Great. Leonor, how about the Castle Shop? I have to see how many days a thread will be there before it is archived. I don't remember. They can be opened up again just be reactivating them. If a thread is blue pinned and not active after a certain time (lets pick a time) then we can remove it from being blue pinned and push up another one. You are right about not being able to find lots of things for certain threads. Maybe we can make a glossary and keep it re pinned. We can post the threads that are archived in a certain catergory. For instance- Color rooms: Red Blue and so on so it is easier to keep track of them . We can copy and paste the threads.That way if we want to reactivate it it is just a click away. Just a thought.What do you guys think? [ send green star]
Leonor A.	July 26, 2008 7:14 PM AH! WOULD LIKE TO OPEN A "STORE", WHERE TO POST GRAPHICS AVAILABLE TO ALL . HOW COULD IT BE CALLED ? MANY PEOPLE DIDN'T GO AFTER THEM TO THE CLOSET . BUT STORE, IN A CASTLE ?...SOME ASKED IF THEY COULD SNAG !...THAT'S WHAT THEY WERE THERE FOR .. AM THINKING ...TOMORROW I'LL COME WITH A NAME . [ send green star]
Leonor A.	July 26, 2008 6:23 PM yes, Eliz , i agree with the number of posts you think is best . do they go to archive, in case we want to see something ? just curiosity . And what about those groups that seem will not get to that number, with time ?. just curiosity again .But some, don't have that much material for a 100 , i guess... [ send green star]
Conni M.	July 26, 2008 9:10 AM Eliz 100 sounds good. I will have some free time tomorrow so I will try to start new rooms! If that doesn't work for some reason let me know!! [ send green star]
Eliz K.	July 25, 2008 10:10 PM Thanks for the pie and lemonaid. Hits the spot. Question Ladies-I saw some of the threads getting long(over 100). What should be the cut off on total amount of posts? Maybe we can make it 100.It takes long to load on some of them.Let me know what you think.Hugs [ send green star]
Leonor A.	Conni July 20, 2008 10:18 PM I'm stopping by, Conni .will drop a line at chat and go on with my messy albums . Wrote to Eliz too and good we are managing to bring the groups up.I've been recopying my old albums ,and bringing other files to my account. why am i saying this... ah! then it will be easier to find the graphics. whatever. thanks for the pie. kisses [ send green star]
Conni M.	July 20, 2008 6:19 PM I thought I would drop off some refreshments just in case somebody stops by! Enjoy! It is a magical pie..it is whatever kind you like best! Yummy. [ send green star]
Conni M.	A Note About Posting... June 28, 2008 6:11 AM Words extending too far... 6:07 AM Hello Anita..Thank you for bringing that up. When posting, if your pictures or words are larger than your window, they go clear off the visible screen. This causes people to have to scroll back and forth, right to left, to see what you have posted. When you post something, please preview it to make sure it is within the window. If the perview window is wider than the one you typed in, you need to adjust the words. When typing posts be sure to hit the return/enter button when you get close to the edge of the window..this will help. Thanks to all!! The width of this post is the size that works best. Remember to reduce the size of pictures if they are too large also. [ send green star]
