Thanks Gracie... I liked the feel of it too. I think we have all seen this place.

Thanks Gracie. I do believe I can still stay, just doing one draw. Maybe not everyday. I will try. Hugs

Hey girl, I am going through withdrawals. Convulsions may follow. I am doing things I have neglected and still managing time on SF. MODIFIED OF COURSE!!!!

Hi Gracie, doll baby! lol, I wasn't making fun of your shack, lol, just that I don't want winter to come my way! seemed as though it took summer forever to get here in Cleveland, and we had such a late winter...I am thinking of moving to Tx just to escape it, lol.

Everyone else is there, we are not pretentious, we want everyone to come and enjoy! ;-D sending hugs your way, terry

Hello again, gracie. I have seen so many gorgeous draws on fu with bridges so I gave it a try. I looked at some images on the net. Went. Using the straight line thingie is fun. :) I like to do something different.
I never thought of bridges the way you do, but now I am. LOL Sounds like a very nice gift you received. Is it B&W?

Hi gracie~sue ;-) Thanks for your very nice comment. ;-) L8*

Oh, forgot to say, Thanks for my drawing compliments. I believe it is obvious, I love doing then very much.

Hi Gracie. Yes I love those add draws as well. I am glad you participated. We need a new one. Have any ideas? I was thinking swimwear.

Thanks for the add gracie. I returned the compliment.

Does my husband play golf, you ask? ... His take on golf: "I'd rather watch paint dry." Guess not! Heh heh! His only sport, if you can call it that, is motorcycling ... he's had a bike since he was 16. I just ride on back, enjoying the scenery without any of the responsibility :D

Hi Gracie just popped by to thank you for all the cheers and kind comments :) x

Your holiday weekend sounded fab, Sue :) My husband worked Sat and Sun and so we just stayed home and vegged on Monday, eating our turkey hot dogs and baked beans :D Diets! From the Latin meaning "to die." They don't work ... I've lost and regained, like, a gazillion pounds. My mother was a BIG woman and I'm rapidly catching up to her! We're victims of our genetics ... even my doc said that. Well, I figure even if I eat nothing but rabbit food and exercise obsessively, I might live an extra year or two ... and be miserable doing it :P So, I'm going to take my doctor's advice: "Get more exercise and eat more fish; or take fish oil capsules." That much, I can do :)

I bet your talking about my newest Dog Riley.

Hi Gracie Sue! Trying to get caught up and say howdy to my homies ;D Hope you are well ... HUGS!

Well heck and doodle you say you like Jeeps Eh !
I have a Tomb Raider RUBICON Wrangler 2003 edition # 676.
A little over a thousand were made. This RUBICON is one dandy hill climbing rig right off the dealer's lot. Do you want to see it I have it on Flickr.com try this link.

Thank you for the comments and support my friend! you always have such wonderful patience with me and never forsake me!! I am glad you understand that eventually, I go and visit all the people I care about@!@!! *warm hugs*

Actually the skies became too cloudy to use my telescope.
I do see you are showing a lean towards J.J. and the B.B.And The H.C.

thankz :)

Wish I could Gracie but unfortunately over 4000 miles separates us for the next 6 months and its taking a toll on me. Thank you for those words, I'd do it if I could.

thanks gracie- if Im not here much its because life is rather busy at the moment....

Yes this year I have stunned myself. I did not remember it was Cinco Demayo untill about ten O'clock at night. For some scrwewy reason it hit me just at the same time, Cinco De Milo sounds the same kind of eh.
Have you ever heard the tune from John Prine he says " When I die you can give my eyes to the blind, Give my arms to Venus De Milo."

ciao gracie grazie for cheers&comments wish u all the best

thankz 4 the commentz

thank you

merci, grazie, gracias, danke, dakujem, spasiba,all this to say THANKS
:-D

ciaoooo gracie bella, thanks for all have a big kiss from me

I love ur avatar!!! & thanx for ur comments!

Gracie Sue! How are you, my dear? I can't believe FU is working today ... is it a fluke, or have they actually fixed the problem? Well, I'm gonna use this opportunity to say hello to my favorite peeps ... big HUG for you, Gracie Sue!

Thanx you so much for ur kind touching comment Graciefriend. I too, will stay her- cause I am just customed here and feel uneasy to switch that often... mannu greats & hugs ferdifriend

Sue dahlik..i have been up all nite and going to bed, but jes to let you know, i am still here at FU for the time being, just not on as much due to photoretouching work and painting the bay house. but miss you and i will email soon, promise!! *big hugs*

Here I am! Did I thank you, so much, for your cheers& sweet comment on my Emi? Very appreciated.:) Gingko does have some cool features, ne'st pas?

Gracie, it was so boring on here yesterday. My cheers and comments were almost non existant. I signed on at 2draw in the beginning of the exodus
and then later at FG. That is the extent of it. I don't want to go but, the more mature crowd is getting thinner. So many of my adds are 14 yrs old and spend 3 minutes on thier draws. Then ask me to comment on them! :O I also have Marchinn as a friend. He always cheers and comments. He is a much more mature person and supports me. I do not want to leave SF but it will not be the same. I know where Gerry is...where is jp? Dogskull has not commented on my lastest draw. He always does right away. RED and I are become pretty good friends. I don't want to leave the friends who are here. Yet the others are leaving a hugh hole in the fun and friendships I enjoyed. I fear the sight may become a place for scribblers. I am not a fine artist, by any stretch. But the friends who are leaving helped me grow. Losing my joy for SF. Maybe I will get past it. I appreciate your support and friendship.(((HUGS)))

noooo why I mean ok it's slow but also Meno...I cannot believe, anyway I'm still here ciao my friend

Who are they Gracie? Your friend, daughter etc?

Hi Gracie, Don't know the couple but always happy for anyone who found love. Smiles.

thanks for the comment! :-)

Thanks Gracie!:-)

Thank you very much for the comment, and I must admit that its my favourite character I have drawn so far. Thanx again.

Thank you gracie .., have yourself a good morning!!! :)))

Hehe. Glad you liked my hair. I like people that can share a joke and have a laugh. Laughter makes you feel good and keeps you young. Age is just a number. I don't draw really so don't expect too much except the Chameleon (he is the REAL stand up talent) and Georgies thoughts.

You are the most sweetest lady ever! Your drawings are really nice:) And your comments just make me blush! Thanks for everything!:D

And your too young too be a grandma : O! Lots of love, katarina

hugs and please go read the comment under my draw and the one i left meno, dont want to type all that again. Will catch up with ya soon! bear hug!

:-D

Thanks for the comment on my hair . Glad you like!

Hi Gracie thnx for the add :)

Hi Sue! Guess we're not going to get anywhere with the General Question petition ... we've been requesting a permanent delete here for months, but no go. I posted a comment on Andrew's profile, but never got an answer. Oh well! It's FU with warts and all, I guess :P

ha ha ha Gracie, an angel, my mother says the contrary, but she loves me soooo much like I love her.My daddy and my great family too 5 sisters and brothers a lot of children 25/30 person for x-mas and easter lunch is normal!!! my sister Mariolina has a big old house and we met there all together.big hugs at the moment I have some time so I answer to u with joy

super dear Gracie, I had to laugh a lot about the comments, thanks and I answer about some: the orso(the bear) is quite angry because ice becames thiner every day.
Me and my heart, sometime have strike, but than there is PEACE.
I swear I only drink tea!!!
well I'm joking THANKS A LOT AGAIN AND...WAIT... NEXT TIME U CAN FIND A SURPRISE ONLY FOR U CIAOOOOOOO BELLA!

HI GRACIE FROM NEW JERSEY, WE ARE FREINDS, AND MENO FRIENDS ARE MINE
CIAO BELLA!

Cheers for the many, many cheers & thanks much for your kind comments. ;-) L8*

thank you for the cheers/comments! :-)

Brrrrrr! Balmy here ... to the point of running the a/c! I'm not giving up my FU unless it becomes so snarled up you can't draw here anymore ;) Some of our chums have switched over to 2Draw ... they seem to find it more challenging and without the technical glitches FU is famous for! But I like our little community here and when the program actually works, it's easy to use. It's FU for me and glad you feel the same. HUGS, Gracie Sue!

lol gracie "lurgy" is a slang british expression for being ill...

Huge hugs..i will reply soon!!!!! Love ya sue!! i am still around..just have a bad back, remodeling the bay house on my mind and not been in a drawing mood.

Patchwork hearts was inspired by a sheet of wrapping paper I had when I was in college. I had it on my wall for years. This doesn't do it justice - ooo, I wonder if its still in my old art folder up in the loft . . .

Woo hooo, packing my suitcase and heading your way....hope you don't mind but I can't make the trek in one afternoon so I'll just crash on your couch for a few days!

Thanks Gracie for the comment on my window drawing. We rarely get snow.
We recieved about 10 inches on March 6th and 7th. My kids and grandkids had a blast, playing in it. Posted a bunch of pictures on my bebo. (((Hugs))

I am fine Gracie, hope you are well. YW for the cheers and comment. I know what you mean about them being important to get. I try to not miss any on my friends list. Ocassionally others as well. Hope you have a peaceful and productive day. L2U

Hi gracie...cheers for the multiple cheers you have left me, along with nice comments! Very appreciated & helps to keep me drawing ;-) L*A*TE

thank you soooooo much for the cheers! :-)

Hello Sue, Thanks for the comments and cheers you give me. The sunflowers and the size they get seem to make him happy. LOL

Hi Sue! You are my last stop tonight! I can never resist your warmth. I think so highly of you! I just had to make my final act of this day! an act of gratitude for your wonderful comments! Thanks so, so much!

Your very welcome! love your art :-)

*Fuzzy blushes* Thank you Gracie, you are too kind!

thanks for the cheers/comments! :-)

Thanks Sue, I had not thought of that. I see what you mean, having an oriental look. It means alot to me to recieve your cheers and comments.*j* Smiles

Hi Sue, thanks for the add!!!:)

Wow...thanks very much for your activity & great comments on my gallery. I really appreciate your kind words & encouragement! L8*

I love your new avatar!

What an amazing, real and wonderful person/artist you are! I have yet to come away from your work without a deep feeling of appreciation for you! You are amazing Sue! Thanks for your cheers and comments, but more important to say, thanks for your inspiring and amazing art!

Thanks for the kind words, but I'm really not achieving the effects I'm after.

Its perfectly ok with me *grins* thank you!

Hi again! I really enjoyed reading your comment on my profile. I think you may know me already & better, by the YD name *A* & *A*-scapes? ;-) It's me, Sue! Thanks for the friend add...glad to be your friend here, as well, L8*

Hi gracie-sue ;-) I see you questioning how to print out your pics? If you look below your name on the top of any picture there is a "download" button. Press that & your picture will load before your eyes, without the 'drawing' step. Once you have your picture, you can right click on your mouse & save it to any file on your computer. From there, you can print them. I have successfully done so ;-). If this isn't what you were looking for, & I'm interfering with a different subject convo, please ignore this...and me - hehe L8*

What if you tried using the sign for addition ?
+SUE

My feelings exactly! Thanks Sue! That was really nice!

Hello... to answer your question, yes there is a way to print them out. When the picture is loaded on your screen, press the print screen button on your keyboard, that will put it on your clipboard. Then you can paste it on a drawing. writing or photo program and use the crop funtion to crop the picture. Then you can print it out on some nice paper :-)

Thank you gracie :)- it means alot to me.

thanks for the cheer and the comment :-)

Thanks for adding me as a friend Sue! Looking forward to getting to know you. BBE

Thanks for the cheers and comments Sweet Sue!

Hi Sue! I believe that there is a unique quality, a glow that shines through people's work. I call it their heart... Few people are as thoughtful as you are... caring and unselfish. This is something to take notice of and learn from. I am very appreciative to have you here as a friend and I treasure this about you!

Thank you Sue! That was so nice.... so very nice and so very appreciated!

That's it! Cape Coral. They are so excited. Thanks, the 'ol brain needs a jolt every once in awhile!

Hiya, Gracie Sue! So the folks are movin' to FL, eh? North of Naples? That could be Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Ft. Myers, Sanibel, Captiva ... any of 'em ring a bell? You go further up and you get Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Englewood, and then into my old stomping grounds: Sarasota County (North Port, Venice, Nokomis, Laurel, Osprey and Sarasota). So it's gotta be in there somewhere! Any further north than that and you're almost in Tampa :)

Hey, of course I don't mind that! Thanks :)

Well now that I'm reading your last comment about two hours after you posted it. This answer may need a bit of math to calculate it. just now turning 3:10 AM. Here.

That Sparrow is my Aunty Katz creation. She is starting to get a little more into the Sketchfu gig.

Hi Sue! I am so grateful for the huge smiles you provoked for me today! What a lovely way to start my day... All of your wonderful thoughts so lovingly created! I will hold that magic close through this entire day! I am so appreciative for my Valentine! I can't begin to express how touched I was... it came at just the right time for me! Thanks so much Sue for your wonderful thought! The amazing card and the time you take to comment and cheer! Much love sent back to you!!!!

Dang you have been busy drawing while i was busy not commenting or voting on anyones work *L* Some seriously GREAT stuff there my friend!! I love the wolf the most tho, he is just fantastic!

thanks 4 the cheers and comment

MOrning gracie-sue!..thanks for the c&c. i'm happy you liked it. XO :)

Hi Sue! I meant every word! You know, it's interesting, that you spoke of correcting things on real work... I am working on a painting of an arabian, and it is not easy at all to rework and correct mistakes, but everything gets better when we learn from mistakes, so take that as encouragement and never give up! I love your art!

He has taken it down and i have thanked him for doing so.
Thank you for voicing your opinion.
At least i know I am not completely nuts and that some others feel that way too. I am taking the drawing down to be fair to him. *hug*

Hi sweet sue!~! Jes in for a hug and to tell ya I will be back for a dose of your wonderful indian art soon. I only have 550 messages *L* I knew taking a few weeks off would bite me in the butt later, but I needed a break from drawing and looking! Hope you and yours are healthy and happy!

thank you very much for the kind comments!

thanks gracie i already like it here the people here are so nice thanks for adding me back ! i like your work

You're welcome Gracie-Sue!

I'm just glad you found it helpful instead of hurtful. It's always a touchy area for me to give anyone any suggestions, but, that rosy brown color was just screaming at me...."It should've been me!".....lol.

I love your work and I am so glad you found your way to FU-land!

Talk to you soon & have a good night!

Robin

Thanks so much Sue! I really am grateful for that sweet comment! Thanks also for the cheers! I really wanted a Valentine's pic and thought this might be a cute idea. Thanks again!

Thank you, very much. ^^

Sue, gently fold in the chips after everything else has been mixed. I forgot to add that...going now. :) I hope you like them.

Sue..go back to my cookie sale drawing. :D xo

Hey Gracie! Thanks for the comment!

Sometimes when you do an add-on, someone else is working on one at the same time and two get published from the same version. Then, the next drawer has the dilemma of picking from two or more versions to draw on. Then, there are some that just draw on a version they like rather than the last one. It happens to me quite a bit too. And a lot of my add-ons get dumped along the way. All you can do is try to make sure you've added your own to the latest version and cross your fingers.

Sometimes, if there are only two offshoots, I will redraw on the second one too if I like what I did on the first one enough, but, that's rare for me these days since I started spending more time working on my regular draws. I just see the add-ons now as a fun distraction that has a life of its own....lol.

Don't forget to enjoy the day!

Miss A.

Thank you, much appreciated :)

Hi Sue....thank you so very much..I really felt that comment and cheer!

Thank you so much! I just adore FU! It's such an awesome place to learn, get tips, encouragement, and make the best friends!

Sorry I haven't checked out your whole gallery yet. I've been subbing quite a bit lately and have gotten waaay behind on catching up on comments and new draws. I'll have to add you to my friends list so I will remember to do it. I can see just from some of your thumbnails that I haven't seen yet, you have some awesome work there!

Keep the colors flowin' & enjoy the day!

Miss A.

Thank you so much for ur comment *hug* you gave me courage with those words. thank's Sue,

Thanks so much Sue for the lovely comment!

Loved your sock puppet story, Sue! Any gift like that, made with love, is priceless ... I'd want to keep it forever, too! HUGS!

My Sister is not ready to let my Nephew be online yet. I suppose it won't be for much longer though. School will most likely become his first reason for being online.

Hi Sue! Your love for this culture is clearly written into your art! Thanks for sharing!

Gracie thanks for the cheers and comments I so appreciate them, :D

Thanks so much Gracie! Now it's my turn to ask a question... what was your inspiration for the Indian totems? That series was amazing!?

Why it's one of the Mar's Rovers traveling away. And the man looking thing is my version of the Big Foot thing that has showed up on a Image took on Mars. just saw it on the news a few days ago. I'm sure it will become an even bigger Story yet.
Should be bigger then the face on Mars story.

Thank you Gracie!

Nice to meet you Sue ... I'll definately be checking out more of your Gallery soon... you really do have great work... :)))) Oh and by the way
you can can call me Carlos... lol :)

Hi sue. I have only printed mine out on photo paper at 4x6 and they were darker than on here but fairly sharp. I have also taken screen shots or saved them on a word doc and made that larger and printed it and it came out pretty good. But I have not tried it big like 8x10 or something.

thanx u so for ur nice comment Sue! So nice to see u here too! (sorry for calling u sue- cause that name i can't get out my system... but tell me if u like otherwise ;D and I will try). bye & hug

Hi Gracie Sue! Sorry to be a day late in getting back to you ... sometimes I get so busy viewing and commenting I forget to check the messages on my profile :) We're having one of our infrequent cold snaps ... it's been a pretty warm (some days HOT!) winter. The only bummer is usually the humidity is low this time of year, but it's been really sticky. Hot and sticky is bad ... cold and sticky is just as bad! Enjoying your Indian art very much. Talk with you later! Hugs!

thank you for C$C sorry fr your mom

An iPod! WOW, lucky you....I think next to drawing I love music...I usually have it on all the time! And thanks for the tip about Andrew & Matt. I'll keep them in mind. Love your new avenue of pics, they're really terrific! And *hugs* back to ya!!!

Hi Gracie!! Glad to see so many are finding you!!
Thanks for the comments and cheers. My New Years Resolution is to do realism. For me, it is a real effort. My eye sees everything but my hand won't do what the eye sees!! So I keep fixing and changing til i drive myself nuts!!! *L*

Yes, that guy left a few messages on my profile too. I go straight to Andrew. You can find his pic on my friends list at the top if you ever need it. He is one of the admins here. Matt is the other one. Just leave them the name of the problem person and they usually delete and pretty quickly too. I think part of the reason this site is working is because they don't fool around. Once somebody has been complained aobut they get rid of their account fast.

Hope you have been well. My son bought me an ipod for my birthday and it came in the mail today. I am so excited about loading it up with all my favorite songs.

Anyhow, hope you and yours are healthy and happy! *warm hugs*

ps gracie, I have 4 grandchildren, 2 at 10 (boys) and 1 at 7 and one at 2 both girls the oldest boy draws here as cheezy, and he is pretty talented and I have of course been encouraging it, his mother,is a good artist and his dad, my son is talented but won't sit and do anything with his art. I am going
