Its 10kib not 10 kb and its best to use a paint program more sophisicated than paint. If you are, it shouldn't be too hard. Just ramp up the compression for JPGs or make it a .gif.

Using Photoshop; nothing I do makes the image smaller than 36kb. Ah well.

Post the picture. I'll do it.

Hey guys, slightly odd question - is anyone still in contact with sybafairy who used to post on here? I had someone called Milla approach me on LiveJournal (apparently I added sybafairy on LJ however many moons ago, and she found me through sybafairy's friends.) anyway, it appears sybafairy sold Milla some things which she hasn't received, and sybafairy has now stopped repsonding to emails :( you can read Milla's account here: http://10101101010110.livejournal.com/

If anyone can help, can you let me (or Milla via her LJ) know?

I think Sarah might know! Wasn't her name Nicky or something? I honestly can't remember.

yeah that's right. I had a couple of pm's from people about it, thanks guys! sounds like sybafairy has done this to a few people, and I'm not sure this girl on LJ has much chance of getting her money back since she didn't pay with paypal :( worth a try tho.

Aaah, good evening all.

for those not on my twitter/facebook I have terrible earache :( I can hear like I'm wearing ear defenders & I can't get to the doctor until wednesday. My eardrops say not to use them if there is any pain, so I'm at a loss until then.

I'm concerned I won't hear my alarm in the morning for work :/

Allo, allo! Does anyone dabble with making their own scents and what not? A few years ago I got some perfume oils that smell just like Vera Wang and Jean Paul Gaultier, but for legal reasons they had to stop selling them, after their distributers sold them as the real name and not the made up one. Does anyone know anywhere else that sells decent perfume oils? I hate spending 50 quid on a perfume I could make for a tenner. I'm just out of oils now!

Yeah, or you could be me & be thirty one & never have left the spotty stage for your skin. Admittedly, it's a lot better than it used to be, but I don't give a fuck any more. My skin used to get me down, but not any more. I have a decent cleaning routine & only put natural mineral crap on my face, but I have oily parts which will always be there so pffft.

My Dr's appt is FINALLY in the morning & I'm very glad it is, my ear ache has given me epic jaw ache - it's painful to yawn!

Also, I'm in two minds about applying for a new job - the new one is minimum wage, but it gets me away from the evil targets that keep getting shoved in my face. I'm not a seller-seller iyswim? I lose my staff discounts & my private medical care, but I'm honestly wondering if that is enough for me to stay, to have the same conversation every few months. IDK. I might edit my CV & drop it off tomorrow....

I wouldn't usually be too bothered, but it's like an explosion in an acne factory! Ick.

I decided against applying for that job - I'm of the belief that if you cannot decide yes or no, then the answer is always no.

I made a booboo. I mixed two "silver" shades together, forgetting one was permanent (more of a toner with the little bottle of hair killing juice) and left it on ALL afternoon. I've just washed my hair, it's not as bad as it has been in the past but I'm a bit annoyed at myself for forgetting.

I *do* have white hair though - I need silver though. Must go buy the non permanent one again tomorrow; the only reason I mixed em is because after I'd put the temp one in a bowl it didn't look like enough to cover my hair.

Bah >_<

Sorry for diving in mid-convo, but after a few weeks of lurking about I've decided to come back and join in properly :3

Hi! I just want to jump in here and say sorry for being a lurker. I was just getting really into making dreads until about December when we received our daughter's diagnosis of Autism. Since then, most of my time has been (and still is) devoted to my daughter and her early intervention services. But now that we've established a routine that we're comfortable with, and especially since we've already seen so much progress, it's been so much more relaxing to learn about this art and put my skills to use.

So, i'm here to learn, and i'm super freaking excited to be here with all the awesome people! :i2:

GREETINGS!! :D :D :D
i nearly lost my son to diabetes in novemeber, so i totally understand where you are coming from.Great that you are into a good routine . We have good and bad days with merlin, its been such a enormous emotional rollercoaster for all us, and so much to take in.
Making dreads i find so relaxing and helps me unwind a bit to,as merlin now suffers alot from anger issues wich is horrible for us all, and such hard work too, so sometimes its nice to sit down and rat the hell out of some hair taking my frustrations out on it lol, i find it relaxing!!
