Intro and newbie question
Hello everyone!
I'm new to the group and thought I should post the obligatory intro My name is Candace and I live in Pelham, a suburb slightly south of Birmingham, AL. I'm a lampworker and I obsessively collect beads of all types. I've been melting glass since 1997 and collecting beads since I was 3 and swallowed 10 at once. Mom had to clarify the definition of "collecting" to me. Seemed like a good idea at the time... Let's see, I'm a recovering office worker and recent full time glass artist, yay! I found out about this group from Kandice's webpage *waves at Kandice* and some of you may know me from various other online boards. I'm Candace or candygrrl at most of those. I lurk more than I post generally, but hopefully I can change that here I think that covers all the intro stuff, now for my newbie question. Can someone clarify the rules for the usenet group? For example when are you supposed to put things like AD or the like in the subject line? I tried to find out on my own, but wasn't too successful. I've never participated in a usenet group. Thanks! I'm looking forward to participating here Candace |

Candace,
Welcome! Can't wait to see some of your work! We seem to have a tendency to get two people with each name... so you're the second Candace . The rules are simple. Put "AD" in front of your subject line if you are posting a link to something you are selling. If you are posting a link to someone else's work that you just think is neat you don't need to put "AD". Put "OT" in front of your subject line if you are talking about something that has nothing to do with beads or jewelry (such as a cute story about your pets, kids, or life in general, or if you just need to vent.) As long as you properly put "OT" or "AD" in any non-bead or non-jewelry related posts you can write about anything you want in this group. Not all usenet groups are like this. Each has it's own rules. It is good to ask and/or read the FAQ for any group you start with. marisa2 *~Candygrrl~* wrote: Hello everyone!

Welcome, Candygrrl,
Another "rule" is to play nice. This is a very friendly group. We're like a family, and are very helpful, although occasionally there will be a spat or someone will be in a bad mood -- just like in a family. And an observation: most people here prefer top posting, partly because it tends to be a fast and busy place. I recognize your name, but don't remember what beads to put with your name. Please send us a link or two to your work. Tina "*~Candygrrl~*" wrote in message m... Hello everyone!

Piggy backing on Tina's post since I lost the original thread.
Anyways, please check out the FAQ, which resides in a new home now, in my sig line (now that I figured out how to make it work).

Another Candace/Kandice - yey! Welcome!
If someone hasn't yet answered - AD is for whenever you are advertising your own stuff, and OT is for anything off topic. Don't post pics directly - link to them instead. Otherwise, this group is unmoderated and anything goes! Nice to see you here! -- Kandice Seeber Air & Earth Designs http://www.lampwork.net Hello everyone!
