Hi Et Cetera Gallumbits.
vegiman:-) Started conversation Jul 24, 1999
I said I would pop over and here I am.
I have read your three pages and find I like Curses Form Wooden Dolls the best.
Perhaps a picture of a doll ar something to make it feel spookie.
have a word with

Enigmaniac
http://www.h2g2.com/U50431
Both will be only too please to give you html lessons to improve the style, and use of paragraphing codes. and Perhaps they may help you find a spookie pic or something.
The story reminds me of a film [can't remember the title] that I saw many years ago. I would like to see a bit more of erie mood and a little less of the unexplained mood that you have created. This is only my opinion. Others could disagree with me.
Do remember, you can change-redo-rename-alter - add to - etc. any page
even after it has been submitted.
If you are happy with it leave it - if you want to alter it or add to it - just click EDIT found next to the articles name on your page.

Thanks! That was just my first go at that particular story, so it's gonna get better. I'm pretty new at stuff like pictures and that stuff the begins with H so thanks for helping. The first two were just trial ones, anyway. I don't like the postamn one, I think I'll delete it.
Thanks!
Luv,
Et.
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 24, 1999
Your welcome.
No don't delete it - try re-writing it without trying to force a laugh - to be honest, it didn't come across the way you intended.
There have got be a lot of fun stories out there about postmen - why not ask yours for his funniest story - most postmen have one. Usually about dogs or sticky situations.
Just an Idea.

Hi Vegiman:-)
Lisa the Freak // Poet by the Toga Posted Jul 24, 1999
I'll re-write it completely, I reckon. I was honestly planning on changing it but I forgot - thanks for reminding me. I might not do something on postmen.
In my 'Curses from strange dolls' I mentioned the thing about my computer. Do you think it's irrelevant?
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 24, 1999
No!!! It is the whole point of the article. I am not an english expert, so I cannot advise on grammer. Have another look at it and see where you can improve it.
Thats the whole Idea - revamp several times until YOU are really happy with it before submitting. Just because you have already submitted, doesn't mean you can't try and improve it yourself. Sometimes a brilliant idea comes to you after reading it a few times.
They say most painters have trouble deciding when a painting is finished and further retouching will only spoil it.
A trick I must learn myself.

Hi Vegiman:-)
Lisa the Freak // Poet by the Toga Posted Jul 24, 1999
Okay.
There's just one thing I don't understand. How come I can't put paragraphs in?
Have you checked out the picture that MadMunk found me? Do you think it looks right?
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 24, 1999
You can. The only thing is the picture must be posted somewhere on the internet first.
The pictures you see are there because many have their own pages elswhere on the net. You can get your own page at yahoo.com. post the picture there. Then you can post it to any of your pages on h2g2.
I will go and look now at the pic.
vegiman
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 24, 1999
Had a look - Like it - Now break your paragraphs.
Easy - just type:
at the end of the paragraph and walla !
Could put the pic after the story and before your experience.
BTW means By the Way
BTW I see you have got your fish from Fenny. If you want to customise your home page a little more you can put a link on it that lets you know who else is on line at the same time as you.
Posted on my page:
http://www.h2g2.com/forumframe.cgi?forum=4773&thread=11959
Just paste it to the end of your text.

Hi Vegiman:-)
Lisa the Freak // Poet by the Toga Posted Jul 24, 1999
Thanks - that'll be really useful. I keep going to your page to get that, so it will be easier.
I'll just go and break up some paragraphs - thanks!!!

Hi Vegiman:-)

Something's not right - I tried out the who's logged on to H2g2 link and I had a window come up that said something like "Popusers is not defined". This never happened when I did it on your page... What's going on?!
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 24, 1999
Some how you didn't copy all the code to your page. I looked at the source code and your page looks like this:
Goodbye
}
// -->
Check
who is logged on to h2g2 RIGHT
NOW!click here
for more info on
vegimans page
THE FIRST FEW LINES OF CODE ARE MISSING ON YOUR PAGE!
cut/delete the above from your page, and REDO: paste all of it below - make sure it is ALL highlighted before you use the copy command at the top of your browser, otherwise you did fine.
vegiman
IT SHOULD LOOK LIKE THIS:
Goodbye
COPY AGAIN FROM HERE v not this line
A TO Z INDEX OF RESEARCHERS PAGES
<!--
function popusers(link) {
popupWin = window.open(link, 'popusers', 'status=1,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,width=165,height=340');

I don't think vegi's trying to crack on to you. He's just a really helpful and caring bloke.
BTW, Hi.
Hi Vegiman:-)
vegiman:-) Posted Jul 25, 1999
As I am in my 50's and vegiwoman is my cup of tea. I would like to point out SHE'S WINDING YOU UP Et. and you are falling for it. I notice her page needs some attention - perhaps she should pop over to my page and brighten up her life with a few links. BFN vegiman
Hi Vegiman:-)
Lisa the Freak // Poet by the Toga Posted Jul 25, 1999
At least you're on my side. I'll go and tell her to come to you.
