heppnerguy Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 I too want to welcome you to our world wide family. If you log on often it won't be long before you discover there are a whole lot of really friendly and talented folks here in The Village. There are a couple of things I would like to teach you, right out of the chute. The first thing is about posting your photos. When you are in this box where you are writing things, like you did your introduction your will see on the lower left corner a button with the words, "more Reply Options". When you click on it, it will bring up another window at the bottom of the box you are writing in. I will say Attach Files and under it will be a button that says "choose files". Just click on it and I think you should have the rest figured out. 2nd thing I want to teach you is when you click on the 'Forum' button on the home page it will open up a lot of sub catagories. Any of those sub tabs will direct you to most of the more used topics in The Village.. Check them out. But the one tab I want to direct you to is one that I, personally do not visit a lot but you will find it probably the best way to get to know the regulars here . It is called the "Coffee house", I believe. I think you will feel right at home there in minutes. There now I have taught you everything I know and I am really ready now, to find out what you have to offer us. I know that I can learn something from everyone here if i keep my mouth shut and my ears and eyes open So let the class begin, I already have my pencil sharpened and the paper ready So Glad you found us Dick heppnerguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendita Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 Hello Garcia welcome to the village Hope you'll like it here its just a bunch of friendly people that share a common interest in woodworking, scrolling and intarsia.

Rob Roy Posted November 22, 2014 Report Share Posted November 22, 2014 (edited) Hello Garcia, A BIG WELCOME to the family. I'm Roy from Scotland. I too have been a pro woodworker for around forty years, alas no longer due to ticker problems ,but still do smaller projects. I used to do Church furniture, Altar tables, organ fronts, baptismal fonts etc. Dick,(Hepnerguy) knows a lot more than he admits to, turns out lovely work. So you come on in and enjoy yourself. We could even talk shop. Oh!!! the Coffee shop, you'll notice you'll have to make breakfast sooner or later, or coffee if you can't cook. . Plenty lovely ladies here to help you out. Take care. Rob Roy. Edited November 22, 2014 by Rob Roy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grosa Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) Thank you for the welcome. I am still trying to get use to this site. I have posted a few projects but, I don't know if it's in the proper place. If I post something in the wrong place, let me know I don't want to offend anyone. I have hundreds of pictures on projects and work in progress photos and how to pictures but, first I need to know where to post them. I am having to resize all my pictures because they are too big for this site. Very time consuming.

wombatie Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Welcome to the Village Garcia. I'm Marg from Australia. There's no more to say everyone else has already said it. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grosa Posted November 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) It seems like most of the project here are small scale. I haven't seen any large scale projects. Most of the tricks and techniques I know are for large scale projects with a scroll saw and painting techniques. You guys have the small scale ones covered very well. Looks like I could learn a lot more from you guys on small scale than you can from me. When I do small scale it's more for therapy to relax. I really do like the people here and the awesome projects you all do here. Hope it's ok if I hang around here and learn something. If you guys want me to go away I will understand.
