Jim Jones, Giveaway Winner.
Congratulations to Jim Jones. Jim was selects from over 5000 entries to win "Wildlife Portraits in Wood". Congratulation Jim. Looks like you have a little magic up your sleeve.
This Months Giveaway.
This months book giveaway is "Making Wooden Baskets on your Scroll Saw". This is one of my favorite books. I love basket patterns and the ones in this book are exceptional.
All the rules for the giveaway are the same as always. Enter every day but only once a day. Find the small yellow scroll saw on the blog and click it to enter. Fill out the form and you are entered. I generally have two giveaways a month so keep the entries comming for the best chance to win.
Just a quick announcement about the Reader Photo Gallery on the blog. I love all the pictures you guys have uploaded. They are very inspirational and show just how talented you guys are. I am having a serious spam problem with the comments in the gallery so I have had to delete all the comments. I have also turned comments off at least for the time being.
I'm sorry to have to do this because I liked having the legitimate comments. I just felt I had to take the action to make sure no offensive comments were left. The spammers had input thousands of comments and it was just impossible to weed them out.
For those of you that took the time to help build the Gallery thanks and I'm sorry your comments had to go with the spammers.
For those of you that have not visited the gallery click the picture above and have a look at some of the great projects. There are three galleries with hundreds of pictures to see.
I also want to use this post to place an official curse on all spammers. "May a thousand viruses infect your computer on the one day in your life when you need it for something intelligent". Oh wait that day will never come. Let me try again. Hmmmmm I give up. All the curses I want to send are just as vulgar as your stupid spam.
