Moderation of Comments ... Change

I have been considering allowing comments to go without moderation. If the comments are recent. Older comments will need to be cleared by me. On the plus side, your comments are submitted quicker. So if I am not online, you can still see your comment. Others can see your comment. This will be good news for some of you - cough, Vanessa, lol - and leave others indifferent. Yes, I am loosening the chains. Hope that change inspires more comments.


On the other hand, I still need to check that the comments are relevant. So for those wanting to leave links about mail order brides or sports stuff, please note: I will delete off-topic posts UNLESS those posts are submitted by "known" doll enthusiasts. Wait, mail order bride and sports stuff will be deleted period. Fair, hmm?


Any comments about comments?

UFDC Membership?

Are any of you members of UFDC?

Why? I never thought that the Federation had much for Barbie and other playscale figures. Possibly that is an outdated idea.

Webshots Becomes Smile - And I Wanna Cry!

Remember all my lovely links to Webshot photos ... well, you won't be able to click on them to see stuff. No. Webshots has become Smile. And I am doing anything BUT smile.


Okay, I am a little behind on reading my email messages. But no where did I find any messages about Webshots becoming Smile and taking MY photos away from me. How? I cannot access my account. Great gusty sigh. I have to investigate this PROBLEM, but my Webshots account does not work. They do not recognize my e-mail address. My brown eyes are going blue, blue, blue.


But I will find out what happened and update you all.


Update: my photos were not removed before December 31, 2012. So they are gone. Forever.

Have to put on my grown-up face, grit my teeth, and regroup. It isn't my life. No one has died. Breathe in, breathe out. Life goes on. Cleared some typos in this post. Deep breaths again.

Kenya Christmas Doll 2012

Kenya was the Christmas doll for 2012. Here she is beside one of the Christmas trees. She did not approve of the tree decorating. The bells were too big. Shrug.
