Hello, from western Washington State, in the foothills of beautiful Mount Rainier. I'm a retired accountant, living in a rural area, with my 2 Border Collies (Mick and Ranger). Ranger and I are training for sheep herding, and we've entered a few herding trials (at the beginners novice level). Mick and I play at agility, but have never entered a competition. When I retired, I bought a spinning wheel, and I'm learning how to spin yarn from sheep's wool. I also bought a small rigid heddle loom, to play with weaving. I belong to a quilting and needlework group, too. Cross stitching is one of my favorite hobbies. I have Photoshop CS5. I want to learn more about Photoshop and all the wonderful things it will do. I created an Avatar, and I hope it worked. I didn't know what "Profile Picture" was, so I put the same graphic in both places. I created a page for the "Day 2 What Christmas Looks Like" challenge, and I will attempt to upload the page. Wish me luck!!! (I need to find the rules about page size, etc.)

Welcome to OScraps, Sandra. Glad you found you way here. I love your darling Avatar! The Avatar is what shows up when you post to the forum/gallery. The Profile photo is what will show when your personal page is visited. They can be the same or a different photo.

Thank you, everyone, for the warm welcome!! .. This is my 5th post, which means that I can now post in the Forum threads. My next challenge will be linking the two pages that I've posted to the Day 2 and the Day 5 threads. I may need to call upon my daughter and her hubby, who are both computer techs, for their help!!

Welcome Sandra, we're sort of neighbors. I live in central Idaho. It's beautiful here but I think your forests are more magical. Love your avatar. I'm still working with CS5 and haven't yet heard of any tempting reasons to upgrade.
