Ok, sooo.. Keyo just explained to me.. that she had forgotten that my SS had emailed her my gift so she had someone make something for me.. so I ended up getting two gifts.
So, the SS that made the calendar.. thank you SO much. It was so thoughtful and, of course you got right down deep into my heart as far as my Buddy Boy goes. I absolutely love it. I'm going to get it online so that everyone can see all the hard work that you put into it.
I do have a huge favor to ask, though. Some of the text can't be seen. :( I want to be able to read it all and print it out... can modifications be made to it? Heck, if it's sent to me I can fix the text myself. :D
I just can't thank you enough... I love it. :o Tears of joy this Christmas! :)
ETA: I don't know when we're doing the big revealing of the secret santas... but maybe we can communicate through Keyo or if someone else would like to *bats eye lashes*. LOL.

Well I was planning on making a guess your secret santa thread, but I think we can just do it here. I'll post the list in a couple weeks. How does that sound?
Oh, and really sorry to the person who made BP's present because I have amnesia. :P

OHHH BABYBLUE!!!!! That is a very very thoughtfull gift. I wish I knew how to put that onto DVD.. If I did, I would do it and mail it to you.... but I cant recall how to do it. Maybe your secret Santa knows or someone else here on chaz knows how to do that stuff... That is too special of a gift not to have a DVD of it.

If anyone knows how I can do that (or if they are willing to do it and ship to me!) I'd really be really grateful!!!!

A what? lol I can play DVD's. I can make CD's, but I don't know how to get it off of youtube. If I could get it off of youtube onto my computer I think I'd be able to write a cd from there.

12-25-2007, 01:10 AM
if you wrote it to a CD you would only be able to play it in a computer.... I have a DVD burner in this laptop (it's my dad's) but if someone told me how to do it, I would do it.
I will talk to my dad tomorrow and see if he knows how to do it.
It would help alot if Babyblue's secret Santa would be able to send me the movie file though.

How do you tell if you have a DVD burner? I know my computer computer had it, but I'm not sure about this one. It says "DVD multi recorder" "Compact DISK rewritable" and "RW DVD - Rewritable" ??

im not sure... but I THINK you have a DVD burner. If it says something about DVD RW ... but im not 100% sure....

Hmm...well I could try as soon as I figure out how to copy it off youtube or get it from my secret santa I could try to write it on a disk!

12-25-2007, 01:27 AM
ok... hopefully your secret Santa can send you the movie file....
If you cant figure it out, and nobody here can figure it out, I'll give it a shot. My dad seems to know alot about computers....

BB, your SS needs to send the file to you and then you can put it on a DVD yourself. :)

12-25-2007, 09:59 AM
Okay okay! I'm BB's SS! :)
I made the video, and if you'd like, I can e-mail you the movie file. I'm glad you liked it, I was really worried it'd bring you down in the holiday season, but I'm REALLY glad you liked it! :)
I'll post my gift in the second.

I messed up at his shoulder when the arm goes all the way down. The coloring is different, there is suppose to be a lighter color there where the light hits him, but it's a dark color and looks kinda like a bit smudge now.
