Ummm, unfortunately there are also hacks available that will let a user (even non-friend) see that restrictive view of your FB wall.

I never post anything much more personal than a comment on the weather to my FB Wall.
I look at FB like a local coffee shop -- a great place to say "hi" and exchange a little casual conversation, but not the place to share or discuss anything truly personal. Also, it's possible to only answer a few very basic questions when setting up a FB account. No need to give real birthdate, which is sometimes used as identifying info with our banks and such so not a good thing to make public. No need to enter a specific location. No need to enter educational or work details. True, a smart and determined hacker could probably use FB as an opening to backdoor into our computers and obtain info about us, just as they could use any social networking or list group site or blog; but I'm thinking that most of us lead pretty routine lives and thus aren't primary targets for the serious hackers.

What type sports car. I'd love to see an Austin Healey or MG offered on FT.

what program do you use to paint TDog?

tdog · #7 Jun 06 2010, 02:10 PM

I used Paint.NET, mainly because Microsoft paint sucks and I don't think you can get a transparent background on Microsoft paint...

Oh, gosh, is Paint still as bad as it used to be? I'm a Mac user and have been for a number of years so haven't seen the newer versions of MS Paint.
Would Adobe Photo Shop possibly work for doing graphic images? I use it for photo card and brochure images, but not being a creative artist, never tried doing anything from scratch in it.
I have some ideas for a small town general store building and small town restaurant building, but doubt I've got the talent to draw them. If anyone else wants to take on these as design projects, that would be great.
