In need of a holiday gift? If the person likes Starbucks. . .then. . .<br />
<br />
<br />
There have been reports that Starbucks stores have a gift bag. . .which includes: a mini 2 strap bag, travel mug, and Christmas blend coffee. Packaged and ready to go for $15.95.<br />
<br />
YMMV depending on your local store.

In OS 10.2.8, when I send mail, it hangs up in the Out box. I'm getting incoming mail, so I don't suspect my ISP.

…does this new forum mean that there might be some occasional "OWC Specials" that just happen to get launched here first?<br />
<br />
btw, thanks for hosting the party …

I only found this place yesterday afternoon, hadn't been to that other place in a while. What do we call this place? <br />
<br />
The OWC Forum?<br />
<br />
The MacResource Forum?<br />
<br />
The Freeforall Forum?<br />
<br />
The Anything Civil Goes Forum?<br />
<br />
<br />
And let me be the first to say: <br />

Just when I think I've read all the new posts and threads, I go back to the list to be faced with <em>Since your last visit, XXX new messages have been posted.</em> I'll never get any shopping done.<br />
<br />
But this is great to see so many of the old (and new) regulars. Welcome one and all.<br />
<br />

I like the subtle shading much better.<br />
<br />
Wow, what an idea. A forum that listens to its posters.<br />
<br />
Loving this new place!

more real content and less dealmac bashing today than yesterday... that is good, it looks more and more like a real forum

I need to help a friend throw together a calendar for a Christmas gift.<br />
It will be a mix of photos horizontal & vertical but since the calendar <br />
is in a horizontal format I would like to drop them onto a consistent background.<br />
<br />
I know I could make one in Photoshop (might have to) but I thought <br />
their might be a site that has some nicer than I'm willing to<br />
spend the time to create since this is a freebie job.<br />
<br />
Any sites out there that you recommend ?<br />
<br />
BTW - yes I did a google search and found many but I'm hoping<br />
that I might get a better result from this crowd cause youse all haves taste ! :-)
