I'm working on the Bingo challenge right now and have enjoyed doing that. But I can't make any comments in the gallery. Is that because I don't have enough posts yet? I'd also like to edit some of my layouts and can't do that either. Will that also change after I post enough in the forum? Thank you for your help.

Hi Jan! I just checked your permissions, and you should be all set! Please let me know if you're still having trouble!

Welcome!! So glad you're here with us! I've got your permissions changed, so you should be good to go! You may still notice some weird stuff until you have 10 posts, but if you'll leave some comments in the gallery, that will bump up your post count and lift those restrictions automatically.

Again, welcome to SSD!

[kbritvich]

Excited to begin posting some of my pages. LOVE SSD and all you have to offer a new digital scrapper such as myself! You made it very easy for me to move from traditional scrapping. Thanks SSD!

[Libby Pritchett]

Welcome to SSD!! I've changed your settings, so you should be able to jump in and make yourself at home. You may still notice some weird stuff until you reach 10 posts. We have some spam filters in place, but that will go away on its own. The easiest way to get 10 posts is to leave some comments in the gallery.

So glad to have you joining us!

Not been on here in what seems such along time thought I would say HI to everyone again.

I am Donna aka MummyD and just love the new look of the forum

[angiekey]

Hello! I'm new to the community, though not new to the Shoppe - my drive overflows with Sweet kits. I'm excited to start participating in challenges here. Thanks for unlocking my account!

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Donna! Glad you're back with us!

Angie, so happy to have you joining us in the community! I've got your permissions all changed, so you should be good to go! If you have any weird issues, they should resolve themselves after you have 10 posts. You can get that post count up quickly by commenting in the gallery. Again, welcome to SSD!

[Sheri625]

Hi! New to the forum, to SSD, and to digi scrapping. NOT new to paper scrapping at all. Now that we (the Mr. and I) are traveling, it's much easier to take my laptop than all my scrapping supplies, into the RV. SO, digi it is! I purchased Artisan 5 a couple of days ago and have spent most of this weekend at a retreat viewing tutorials and shopping for digi kits. Any and all suggestions, advice, comments, etc. appreciated.

Thanks for listening!
Sheri

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Sheri!

Welcome to the dark side! So glad you're joining us. I hope you'll jump right in and make yourself at home. Everyone here is super friendly and wlling to help, so if you have questions, please don't hesitate to start a thread and ask for help. I'm not familiar with Artisan 5, but I would bet that someone here can help you out!

I've changed your forum permissions, so you should be able to settle in now. You may still notice some weird things until you have 10 posts, but everything will resolve on its own at that point. The quickest way to bump that number up is to leave some comments in the gallery.

Again, welcome to Sweet Shoppe! We're so happy to have you joining us!

Hi! My name is Pam, and I have been more or less lurking for a while. I have wanted to try the Bingo Challenge, but never seem to have enough kits to manage. I finally downloaded a few from the freebie site and with others I think I will try the challenge. Looks like a great site, and there are several designers that I have loved for a long time.

[Captivated Visions]

Welcome to all the newbies

pamr I think i know you, nice to see you here

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Pam! So glad you're here, too! I've changed your permissions, so please jump in and get cozy! I think you'll love the Bingo challenges! You may notice a few weird things in the forum until you reach 10 posts, but you can bump that number up quickly by commenting in the gallery.

Welcome!!

Thanks, actually I followed you here when you switched stores. Love your stuff! Does that make me a stalker?

Thanks! It may take me a while to learn the ins and outs of the site, but I'm willing!

A Little and I love that

[speechphi]

Hi! Another newbie here I just posted my first layouts to the gallery...

I've been scrapbooking for about 20 years (yikes!), but just got hooked on digital scrapping last summer while trying to make a shutterfly book. And now I've converted completely. I'm so glad I found this website.

A little more about me: My name's Christine, and I'm a speech therapist & was an Alpha Phi in college (hence, speechphi). I have three kids (11, 10, 7.5) and a wonderful hubby who loves that my hobby no longer requires piles of stuff on the table (and counter and desk!).

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Christine! I'm also a former paper scrapper who went digi about 10 years ago. I've never looked back, and I think you're gonna love it!

I've changed your forum permissions, so feel free to jump in and make yourself at home. If you notice any weird stuff, it should all correct itself when you reach 10 posts. The quickest way to bump that number up is just to leave some comments in the gallery.

Welcome to SSD!

[dvhoward]

Hi! I'm Diane. I've lurked about for a time now, but the site didn't recognize my username and password, so I reegistered and thought I better make myself more known. I'm a Seattle area resident in the USA. I've been digi scrapping since 2011. I jumped in because I've fallen in love with Red Ivy Designs work. Glad to be here.

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Diane! It's so nice to have you joining us! Please jump in and make yourself at home! I've changed your forum permissions, but you still may notice some weird stuff until you reach 10 posts. That will go away on its own though, and you can bump your post count up quickly by commenting in the gallery.

Again, welcome to SSD!

[nietis]

Welcome to SSD, Diane! Looking forward to see you being active here.

[dvhoward]

I'm actually stopping by to see if my signature will show up.

[Libby Pritchett]

I see it!

[Patriciejw]

I wanted to participate in the INSD 2016 challenges and just registered last night. So I'm adding a post to get access.

Thank you

[Libby Pritchett]

Welcome!! So glad you're joining us for iNSD! I've changed your permissions, so please feel free to jump in and play along! You may notice some weird stuff until you have 10 posts, but that will clear itself up once you've reached that magic number. You can leave some comments in the gallery to bump your post count up faster!

[ElizabethW]

Hi! I'm new in the forums (not the shoppe so much - ha!). I've been kind of roaming around trying to find a digital scrapbooking "home". I've scrapbooked for 16 years, but converted completely to digital several years ago. I love the pocket style scrapping so that I'm not always reinventing the wheel, but enjoy playing with other stuff, too - I so appreciate that so many Sweet Shoppe products are designed for both!

A little about me: I'm in Kentucky, I love photography and have been taking some online classes to get a bit better, I'm a lawyer in my much-less-interesting day job, and I have three kids (including a brand new teenager - yikes!)

[Libby Pritchett]

Welcome Elizabeth! Great to have you joining us!

Looks like your permissions were already fixed, so someone else beat me to the punch. LOL You may notice some weird stuff until you ready 10 posts. We have some spam filters in place, but those will automatically be removed. The quickest way to bump up your post count is to leave some love in the gallery.

Hope you'll jump in and make yourself at home!

[AngeBrands]

Hi! I'm new here.....

It's great to be here.....
I have a few problems......I can't edit my layout that i posted and i can't place any comments....
Please help

Thank You

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Ange! So glad to have you joining us! I've changed your permissions, so you should be able to jump in and make yourself at home. You may notice some strange stuff until you reach 10 posts as we have some spam filters in place. Now that I've changed your permissions though, you should be able to leave some comments in the gallery, and bump your post count up quickly.

[AngeBrands]

Thank You so very much Libby

[cmtscrap]

Hello Robin,

I've been trying to post in the Summer Games thread with my layout but I keep getting a message that says I have to be approved first. Traci Reed suggested I post here first.

Thanks,
Charlene (aka cmtscrap)

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Charlene,

I've changed your forum permissions, so you should be good to go! We do have some spam filters in place, so you may notice a few weird things until you have 10 posts. If you'll leave a few comments in the gallery though, that'll bump your post count up quickly and those restrictions will go away.

Welcome! So glad you're joining us!

[cmtscrap]

Thanks Libby! Glad to be here.

[KatieLu]

Hello,
I just signed up for the community feature. I am new to digital scrapbooking so I'm still trying to learn the basics. I wanted to purchase one of the new fourth of July products to use as a background for my blogger template (personal blog). Would I be able to do that if I purchased it? Does it come with instructions on how to do that?

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Katie!

Welcome to Sweet Shoppe!

Your best bet on a project like that is to message the individual designer directly and ask them if they'd be ok with that kind of use. We all have our own terms on what is acceptable, and while many would probably be ok with personal use on a blog, some may not.

You can use our contact us form to contact individual designers.

As far as instructions, no, it wouldn't have any type of instructions. Your best bet would probably be just to google and look for a tutorial on adding graphics to your particular blogging platform.

I hope this helps!

[KatieLu]

Thank you. I did send a contact email last weekend but have not gotten a response back yet.

[Libby Pritchett]

Did you send it to the a specific designer? If you'd like to send me a private message here and let me know which designer you're trying to reach, I'll see if I can help you get in touch with them!

[Tedip]

Hello all. Been a member for over a year, but merely only read things, looked and, of course, have been buying kits and templates for that long. Just finished a page from our 35th Anniversary Trip to Aulani in Oahu which I wanted to share since I used a kit I purchased at SSD.

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi there! So glad you've decided to join us! Please do make yourself at home! I've changed your forum permissions, so you should be able to settle in a bit. You will probably still notice some strange stuff until you have 10 posts. That's an automatic spam filter that we have in place. If you'd like to reach that 10 posts quickly, you can just leave some comments in the gallery!

[oscaralley]

Hello, my name is Tanya....it's been a while since I last popped in. I was wondering if I'm allowed to post comments in the gallery? Such amazing layouts. I'm a hybrid girl but need to get working on some layouts.

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Tanya! I just changed your permissions, so you should be able to post comments now. We have some spam filters in place, so until you have 10 posts, you might notice some wonky things. You can bump that post count up quickly though with gallery comments.

Welcome to SSD! Glad to have you joining us! I can't wait to see some of your hybrid stuff!

[bbesendorfer]

I have been lurking for several months and finally decided to join in.

[Libby Pritchett]

So happy to have you joining us! I've changed your membership settings, but you may still notice some weird stuff until you reach 10 posts due to some spam filters that are in place. You can reach that magic number of 10 quickly by leaving some love in the gallery!

Again, welcome to Sweet Shoppe! We're glad to have you!

[Nicole]

Hello all! Just joined. I am a fulltime accounting student and mommy to a wild 5 YO girl. I am loving the designs I see in the store!

[Libby Pritchett]

Welcome Nicole! I just got your permissions changed, so feel free to jump in and make yourself at home with us! If you haven't checked out the Open House event we have going on right now, you'll want to take a peek!

[Pipa]

Hi everyone...I am Claudia and I have been a digital scrapper for about… Oh, I don’t remember but it’s been more than 5 years and I love it! I’m a graphic and fashion designer, artisan and I absolutely love to read.

[Robin Carlton]

Welcome Claudia! Super happy to have you here! I love to read too, unfortunately, I rarely seem to be able to make time for it lately. I'm more of a book hoarder now.

[Libby Pritchett]

Welcome Claudia! Got you all fixed up! Glad to have you joining us!

[fran_54]

Hi Fran here, known as frani_54. I've been posting layouts in the gallery and noticed I can' t leave comments yet on other peoples layouts! I would love to be able to do that, do I need to build up my comments here in the forum first? BTW you have a great bunch of ladies here in this community.

[Libby Pritchett]

Hi Fran! I just changed your permissions, so you should be able to leave comments now! You may still notice some weird stuff until you hit 10 posts, but leaving gallery comments will bump that number up.

Welcome to Sweet Shoppe!
