Gosh, good to know Renata. Must be careful.

What you say is true, Norma, but who would have guessed that the filename would show up on the internet when it does not show on the forum? I had no problem posting the pictures but certainly had no expectation the file name would show up on the internet. Now that I know, I will change the file names to something a little more anonymous before posting.

Thanks for posting this. You really have to take care and never post what you don't want to see in another place.

I just googled images with keywords friendship triangles exchange posyp and found some of your photos (and one of mine) but interestingly, yours don't have the file name on them. Some interesting photos, though!

I just googled my name of 'PosyP' and got what I think is a Czech site for slang and it means 'Sprinkle' - that is 'pour vodka into glasses!' - oh my!

Good grief! Nothing will ever be private again!

Once I found out, I figured I'd share it so that those of you who were not aware of this detail would now be, in case you use filenames you would not want to see on the internet. Non-members can read all our postings on the internet, they just have to pick the right keyword to get to them. But, rather than the inline photo, as we members see when we read the Forum, non-members sometimes get to see the photo and its filename.

With my apologies--I deleted the pictures of my holiday runner from the postings because when I went to the internet looking for ideas for more runners, my quilt pictures from TQS FORUM showed up with the name of the recipient!!! because that is how I tagged my photos when I saved them. So, when we place a photo on TQS forum inline, it shows up on the internet with the file name along with the posting itself. When I'm done, I'll be happy to post all the final quilts (and I'll make sure the recipients' names are not in the file name!).

Glad that others can answer when you are busy sewing . I subscribe to the webinars from iTunes Store now. I will see what Amanda has on her website.
Until I got the software I downloaded most of my embroidery motifs from this website http://www.embroiderydk.com
It's rather cheap to subscribe and they sew out without problems

I think that I will have to try & remember this for the new year. I am quite busy trying to keep/catch up with a Gimp course at the moment and am having great fun with it, the beauty of it is that Gimp, unlike Photoshop is free and seems to do everything photoshop elements does (plus possibly a few extras), if only you can find it

Rosemary, the webinars are wonderful. I sign up for every singe one because I always learn something new every time - and I've sewn for years like most of us. When you get set up on their email mailing list you register, and then have the option to send it to outlook so you can add it to your calendar. They offer three times during the day that you can watch it. You will also get a reminder from Bernina. Plus Amanda's website as a backup. Bernina does a very good job with this.

I'm so glad you've gotten the 830, Norma. Sounds like you have the perfect dealer to go with it! I'm really loving my Bernie and am making friends with more and more people at my bernina shop!
I won't be buying the software yet, but have my twenty year company anniversary next September when I'll be getting a nice anniversary check... So I know just what that will be spent on. In the meantime I'll have to keep to the most important design wishes and get my colleague to covert those for me.

Norma, you lucky duck! Many many happy hours quilting on your new machine.
