Check it out. No one ever updates their user sounds. They are a fun way to personalize your journal or leave messages.



In order to get people more interested, I am raising the maximum size of the user sounds to 250k. Simply use the control panel that looks like music notes. You can upload sounds in wav, mid, or mp3 format. Have fun.

It would be nice if the calendar entries would pop-up in a tooltip (using mouseover)... also, any calendar entries added since the last visit could be colored a different color...

A calendar isn't a bad idea. Of course, is the motherlode of calendars.. it would be nice if there could be a shared calendar for this community. Events happen, and I hear about them afterwards. For example, there was this vegan/vegetarian concert in Ellicott Creek Park, and I heard about it weeks afterwards. Seeing that summer is so short here, I'd like to take full advantage of outdoor events.

I updated the image library today to include drawings that you made using the Sketch function. They will now show up in your image library so that you may delete old ones or add them to current or updated journal entries. Hope this helps some of you out there.

For those of you that do not what your image library is, simply click on the img library button at the bottom of your journal entry form. This will bring up a window with previously uploaded images, which you can then view and add to new and updated entries. More detailed nstructions can be foudnd on the image library window itself. Check it out and email paul if you have any questions.

in this area, there are so many inventive, enjoyable and free/inexpensive things to do as a family- especially in the nicer weather. generally, smaller events slip under the radar. if they are advertised at all, it is generally buried amongst the "rock" listings in the calendar of the gusto or artvoice. there is an especially wonderful family event that not everybody knows about and i feel that i should spread the love.

storytelling magnifique runs ever saturday through mid-august near the playground area of the rose garden. once a week, heather, an accomplished storyteller, will engage your children in a magical olde world story.

if your kids won't sit still on damp grass for an hour, rest assured- heather comes with trunks and trunks of dress up clothes so that your children can act out fable while it is told. do you have a butterfly, fairy, elf, troll or knight living at home? your child will join many others in this very relaxed environment- where no single child is picked- but rather all of them.

better yet, this enchanting event is free! it will happen every saturday aroun noon- parents come with a lawn chair and a camera!
