Admin, you just stayed relaxed and no pressure. We are just as excited as you are and that's why we seem so anxious. But take your time and make sure it's the way you want it to be. We are just like little kids with a new toy. Don't mind us!! We're just hanging around waiting for you to let us play with your toy.

Neil - Don't you dare keep your mouth shut! I think what you are witnessing is your following drooling with anticipation!

And on a personal note, teasing is a good thing!

I agree with Granny! I wanna play with your new toy. But, we'll wait....Hey, we need an official countdown!

TheOwl, yes, I can read it fairly easily. I have a 17" monitor.

Thanks OWL.
It is fuzzy- but I can make it out.

Thanks for the teasers Neil- it gives us something to look forward to. BB will be over- so traffic will die down.
I only visit- a few times a week after BB- not many times a day.

I think Survivor will be over by January also.

Am wondering if our large tv screens fuzz up the pics in comparison to the puter screens, because I'm having a hard time making out what it says too. Hey, maybe Neil's toy will be ready for gift giving in December a week or two before the new year! Yeah.

Neil, the last thing we want to do is put pressure on you.

(Keep the countdown current Owl...Hoot-Hoot!!)

Whoami (and others): The Message Board is best called that because you can leave messages for others in there. It's not really a Personal Folder because it's still subject to the rules and policies of the rest of the board, and anyone with a membership can read the area. The term Personal Folders insinuates a more private, anything goes area, which it is not. After deliberation, the area will remain as it is. However, the new version of tvch will have a link in the main menu to the area, for easier access!

That makes a lot of sense Admin! Like I said, I wasn't really griping. Just remembering how lots of newbies wonder where member folders are. Thanks for thinking on it though!

Remember, no pressure. We are all just really excited!

Fly

I'd really like to see the fly icon we now have ... not a big graphic but just enough to know it's on a wall, prehaps some really lite bricks just enough surrounding the fly to know it's a wall, and the person making this graphic could use the color of a brick, darken the hue just slightly and put IMO (you really wouldn't see the IMO unless you looked closely but it'd be there)

I'd like to see that graphic on the front page - I don't have the proper graphics plugins etc needed to really do a great job with this but hopefully somene does.

Here's my idea (if I can draw it at all imagine the ='s are bricks and the * is the fly... there's actually a brick paintspray in Paintshop pro, could use that - shrink it to fit... If there's someone great with graphics but doesn't quite know what I'm thinking of please let me know I could toss together a sample you could use as a template.

=*=

I don't think the IMO should be clearly visible just a very slight hue change - so those of us who knew fly well would 'know it's there' - but the IMO wouldn't be a distraction to all those joining over the years after etc. This IMO isn't really as important to me but I'd like it to be there, and I can put it on myself after the graphic is made if you'd like me too (I've done this sort of thing many times, semi-hidden lettering)

Anyhow size wize I'm thinking... if you'd imagine 9 squares of that fly...

that'd be the size of the graphic. Well I'm probably going to have 3+ weeks off in about 6 weeks so if nobody else can do it, I can do it then.

I miss Fly, I think if what I'm visualizing is made it'd really fit nicely here.

Not to be off topic, I never knew flyonthewall very well. I just wanted to stop in and say Hi to whit... so Hi Whit :o)

I hope the fly graphic is pretty, I would like to see it colorful instead of b&w. JMO
I am just happy Fly will be part of all this.

Coloring the fly would be easy (for anyone who knows how to do the rest of what I'm suggesting) but fly's tend to be black so not sure if it'd look right colored what do you think...? Perhaps we could find out her favorite color for the brick color...

Bumping this up once more as we remember Dear Bobbi and all she contributed to Big Brother seasons past. As this season has now ended. We love you Bobbi. God Bless and keep you always.

I soooooo missed Fly this season. It really wasn't the same without her and her absence was felt the entire season.

Still missing you ((((FLY))))).

Fly, we miss you lots and lots. I know you're watching us all, but we sure wish you could still be here.

I never get flies in my house, but the other night, there was a fly who went by and I smiled and immediately thought of our Fly. No, I didn't get anything to swat at the fly but rather, I shut off all the lights and opened the back door where the fly immediately followed the light source from the back porch and went outside on her merry way!

((((Fly))))

Just a quick update on the TVCH upgrades...

I've been very busy with work and family, but the new TVCH is still under construction and not forgotten about. We are still on track for the goal date of January 1. I'd like to move that up, but can't guarantee anything.
