Stand Out Forum Moments Y2007, by Harveyn on Dec 7, 2007 9:00:50 GMT 1, I have not been a member on this forum for a whole year yet but I have certainly enjoyed my time so far. Great people and great discussions. I have experienced generosity from total strangers that would be beyond that of some of my so called acquaintances.
There have been some stand out moments for me and I thought it would be nice for people to list theirs. You know the ones. Those occasions when you did not know whether to type a post or just keep reading in case you missed something. Those occasions when you suddenly found yourself in an empty room laughing hysterically at your computer (or worse in a crowded office).
Here are my top five Forum Moments for Y2007 (in no particular order).
1. The Adam Neate thread of picture from "Paintings, Pots and Prints" - The WOW factor.
2. The Trolleys release - The roller-coaster ride.
3. Charidee - The generosity of forum members.
4. Santas Ghetto Threads - The message and the debate.
5. The ramblings of Bongo - Puts a smile on my face.

The Found thread was ace too as it was my first show and great buzz meeting some of you folks. I still can't drink Sol.

Agreed- that was the thread that just kept on giving, with possibly the best critique of a piece of work ever:
'owww my eyes hurt'
(or similar)

I must admit I thought he was completely mad for a while, big big respect now though, particularly after the ghetto trip (and a little business via PM)

Stand Out Forum Moments Y2007, by Jef Aerosol on Dec 9, 2007 18:55:35 GMT 1, Not been a member for long but need to send big big thanks to many people on here ! I guess they all know who they are... I liked the threads in which I was sometimes a bit criticized or questioned. This is what helps me to keep sane about my work and remember that every single day, i have to unlearn some pre-conceived ideas, to get rid of prejudices and to learn new things and put myself into question again and again. For instance, about Icy, the stenciller from Iran. So, a million thanks to you all guys : I love you !
Actually, my work for 25 years has been a big "i love you" !!!
