Been ridiculous. We have been experimenting with banning the main email address domains, and that seems to be helping some. 2024 was a tear down and rebuild, but for the better. We now have a much better stage set for 2025.

So I was a bit down in the dumps this Christmas. Harder time of things than I expected. But a few nights later I turned on the radio and they were playing some feel good tunes from the 60s, 70s and 80s, and I thought, "You know what? Enough with being depressed. I'm gonna listen to some positive music until I get happy again!' Post some positive, feel good tunes from any era to start 2025 on the right foot. I think it's going to be a great year, and I hope so for this entire community, as well as our home forums, Note: YouTube links, and with lyrics whenever possible.

Looks good! Downloaded it and sent it to my Dev. Should be up by New Years. And thanks again for everything, Looking forward to doing the next one together soon!

I'm with Shawn as well, in large part. I know it might come off as a little too high-brow, but I quite honestly don't care what most others think, If it's a staff member who has to work there every day, sure, That I'd care about because I want them happy. I'd also care about what the general membership thought if there a like some sort of virtual mutiny going on or something. But the masses in general? Wouldn't give it a thought, Why worry about it when they likely don't truly care anyway? The one person I know without doubt needs to be happy is me.

Could be either one, but that's the way I understood him : )

Yes. And it's only a half step higher vocally, so there should be no difference. LoL. When I was making out the chords, he used the words "cap girl." The word Cap is typical shorthand for Capricorn.

You're welcome : ) If you wanna go capo-less (not sure that's a word), you could do it in Am (Am, C, F, G). Or you could go lower and do it in F#m (F#m, A, D, E), and then you'd only have to contend with the F#m. You in love with a Capricorn or something? : ) He's singing about a woman born in January (or late December), in case that's why you liked the song.

Hard to write out measure on a page like this, but he's also hitting on the ands a lot (the B and the E), so the notation would be something like this: 1 _ _ _ 2 _ _ _ 3 _ _ _ 4 _ _ _ 1 _ _ _ 2 _ _ _ 3 _ _ _ 4 _ _ _ G#m .............. B ............................ E .................... F# ....................

Well I'm glad if you'd be the happiest fdk in all of Europe, LoL. My acoustics were usually downtuned, (haven't played in years), but I picked one up, and it appears he's in G# minor. The chords keep revolving around G#m, B, E and F#. But either way that makes it a bar chord song. Are you into playing bar chords yet?

Thank you, fdk! I'm sure he'll see it eventually. It's possibly my fault in the way I worded things. Anyway, we'll get it straight. My Dev isn't back on until Monday anyway, so I have time before I cam actually use them. But looking forward to it! Blessings! - C

Hey BRANSOL, just had a chance to look, and the two you sent you were still unfinished versions. Did you send me the wrong two by accident, or just forget to make those last few adjustments? The small print line reading "One Spirit, One Body, One Forum" needs to be uniformly slanted in the Banner-2 batch header, and uniformly upright in the cursive batch : )

Btw BRANSOL, I'm not actually sure where you should be delivering the files to yet, but my Dev is supposed to be back at work today, so maybe he will have you ship them straight to him. I'll get back to you. Could I see the finished products in the meantime just to make sure?

Just sent. Let me know if there was any trouble on your end.

Bransol, let's do this. $30 seems like a really good price already that I wouldn't mind just taking things step by step and do stuff one at a time (i.e. and forego worrying about any discounts for now). The thing is, it may be a little time before I can get to those other themes, and I don't even know what the 3rd one will be yet. So let's just settle accounts for now, and I will be sure and contact you the minute it looks like we are ready to do the second one. Does that sound ok? Send me a bill to get caught up, and I will keep in touch on the rest : ) I'm very pleased with your work!
