Gallery bug

Hi 65strat! That's a really good bug that you uncovered! thumbsup I wrote it up, Talk:Bug_reports#Gallery_tag_and_Listener_info_conflict and made a sample for Jimbob so you don't have to leave your page this way for him to see. Thanks! (Sparkit 15:18, April 6, 2006 (AKDT))

I want to give 11,873 of the Version 2 WWR chat wheatberries to 65strat! - RickHap 20:09, April 6, 2006 (AKDT)

Banjo!

Whoah, that is one fine-looking banjo. I'm very impressed. If it sounds half as good as it looks, you've got a new career. Or maybe that's your old career. Whatever. That is way cool. I want one. You should post it at Banjo Hangout. --J-Walk 18:15, May 16, 2006 (AKDT)

You are now famous -- well, more famous than you were this morning. Not much more. Maybe slightly more famous. --J-Walk 15:37, May 18, 2006 (AKDT)

Cool!, thanks J-Walk! --65strat 08:09, May 19, 2006 (AKDT)

I assume J-Walk is talking about his posting of your banjo recording on his blog...it's really awesome...I am listening to it over and over right now. Sounds as good as it looks...and what a unique instrument! Good job! --Bisbonian 15:21, May 19, 2006 (AKDT)

Well, 65strat...you really inspired me! After playing J-Walks gourd, and seeing the banjo that you made, I decided to give it a try. I am well on my way toward finishing a gourd banjo. Unfortunately, my wife is out of town, with the camera! But I'll post some pictures later. My workmanship isn't as neat as yours, but for a gourd, I think it looks pretty good...thanks so much for the inspiration! --Bisbonian 21:56, July 12, 2006 (AKDT)

It's done! And I'm playin' it. Here are some pictures: gallery

Goofed adding tags

Hello Sparkit,

I was trying to add a tag to a song (Songs:Screen Door by Adam Carroll) and I accidentally created some free form tags. They are 'Sounds' 'Like-Neil' and 'Young'. Can you fix this? Sorry. 12:03, March 5, 2007 (AKST)

Yup. Done fixed up. The trick on doing the multiple word tags is to use an underscore rather than a space. i.e.: Sounds_Like-Neil_Young

To change the tags when they get messed up, deselect the words or phrases in the scroll boxes, and add the new one to the entry box and hit submit.

Secret Wheatie

Wheeeeeeetie! Yay! How did you know I'm a chocoholic?! I opened your package carefully and then snarfed down a piece-n-a-half before remembering I should take a picture. Yum!! Thank you, thank you! My co-workers know that if they want to butter me up, they need to bring chocolate. I'll let them know that "Crave" chocolate is a preferred brand if they want something extra.

Here's the result of my snarfing down the piece-n-a-half: (I hope I type this right...)

Yum, Yay, and Thank You!! MMmmmmmm............... Anagram 22:55, February 2, 2008 (AKST)

More Secret Wheatie!

Wow, thank you so much! I didn't feel bad about your Wheatie gift arriving after the party ... that's just the way the mail goes in New Mexico. And now I got more!

I took pictures:

Wow, what a gift!! Music and hand-made trivet.

I put the music into the player right away.

And then I toasted 65strat!

Next up: dancing to "Road Runner" by Microwave Dave and the Nukes.

Steel Drums

FYI - A tag for Steel Drum already exists. You can check Category:Tags for existing tags. Kelli (talk) 08:06, May 6, 2008 (AKDT)

You're welcome. I started a discussion topic for this because I think steel drums might make more sense. Please feel free to leave your thoughts here. I think all you really created was the photo and it doesn't hurt anything to leave it there. Kelli (talk) 08:22, May 6, 2008 (AKDT)
