Welcome! Good to see you here. Think you'll find this a pretty cool place to hang out. LOTS of info, tips, history, and ideas concerning wingless wets. Pull up a chair and browse thru the patterns - lots of real beauties.

easternfly, Howdy;
I came onto this forum as a raw beginner almost 2 yrs. ago...
My learning curve was like hitting a brick wall...
.
The folks on here have been kind and prod me along to the
point that I have taken part in a few of the swaps here..
I do ask several of the recipents to give me hard critiques,
only helps. My learning curve is not quite so steep now,
ALL due to the help I get for the questions I ask. So, if you've
questions, ask you'll get lots of great answers. Beat up the search mode,
There is also a reference section (it is a 'child' of the Links section), with pix of all the past swaps, links to
a HUGE amount of information in and of itself.

Welcome Kevin, good to see you here.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.
