Damn.....I just missed you. Went downstairs to either watch TV or get
creative. However, Ron was watching an X-rated Bruce Willis Die Hard
movie (Willis only seems to know one cuss word, grin) so I messed
around with my inventory, but couldn't seem to get inspired. Guess I
had better and then sell them to you for the girls, lol.

Elayne has her order(s) in, but I am missing one tiny item for each
necklace. Or a toggle or some such. Made a neat pearl trio
(necklace, earrings and bracelet) the other night. AFTER I had
totally threaded the 22" necklace, I then held it up for Ron to see
and promptly let go of one end of the wire.......ARGGHH!! You ever
try to find tiny seed pearls on a rug?? Somehow I can't picture you
crawling around looking for beads or pearls.....ROFL!! Got em all
tho. (colour me cheap as well as blonde)

Cheers, Mikey.....and get to bed. XX Figgs

Night.....Heather (PhotoPAINT??....Photoshop??) Hey, Elayne is the
expert, not me.


Yes, Corel PhotoPaint rather than Adobe PhotoShop.

Looking forward to seeing some pics. I doubt however that I will be
able to afford your prices. :-)

Hi HL,

Harry's saga reminds me of the old dear who sat and watched her television
whos screen only worked in all shades of blue for years. Then one of her
grandchildren commented that there was something funny about the picture on
this old black and white telly and shouldn't she buy a new colour one.

"Don't be silly," she said, "this _is_ a colour set and its been working
perfectly for years!"

Some people will watch anything.

ROFL!! That expression means he wants to go out on his motorcycle and
"catch some wind".....I believe. With Chili, he would be sending it to
us!! He could sure clear out a room in 5 seconds flat!

Go ahead, Mart, have your fun!
Right now its working allright and I'm going to check 'the connections' as
soon as time permits, before delving into 'new' territory.
There is one more possibility, but I'll leave that for later...

H:
Your reply is most appealing and objective, without the sometimes nasty
taunting.
Very refreshing, easy to comply to and much appreciated.
Thank you.

Harry.

All of what has been suggested to date is quite valid.......I would like

to
add that I had a problem with my existing machine, similar to yours. My
screen would turn yellow. I determined it was not the monitor, very

easily,
by simply turning the monitor on without the cpu and you should get some
sort of 'bouncing' message that the monitor has no signal, but, is working
properly (or something to that affect). If not, try just turning on the
monitor and opening your menu (usually a button in the front or side of

the
monitor), if the colors are correct, then it is not your monitor! Mine

was
either a loose video cable at the back of the cpu or the video card was
loose. When I 'wiggled' the connection the yellow went away and all was
normal and, to date, it has remained such. I still don't know whether it
was the cable connection or the seating of the video card.
Also, the video cable itself can cause similar problems. You would do

well
to stick with Mart and Norman's suggestions.

If this is the wrong 'forum', please let me know and also where to
turn.

Since I'm using WinME, I figured it would be worth a try:

In Properties/Settings under 'Colors' the color red is now completely
missing, while at first it sporadically changed back to 'normal' with

all
colors present.
This makes the display appear greenish and the former blue purplish.
Otherwise no changes.
It seemed to coincide with the loss of my 'WinZip' (just a guess).
Does this indicate the monitor going bad'?
Or is the cause somewhere else?
If it can be fixed, please let me know.

Monitors tend to die, after time. Especially the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube)
variety, including TV sets.

I had a ten-year-old Zenith monitor lost the blue gun.

I have a fifteen-year-old Zenith TV which is losing the red gun.


I'm taking it under advisement, Norman, thank you. H.

You Brits certainly have a funny way of spelling things. Like
"harbour" for
"harbor", "torch" for "flashlight", and "chilli" for "chili"!

No.....with the exception of Chilli, the Brits spelled all of the above
right. As do we in Little Britain. Colour, humour, harbour and so on.
Lorry for truck, torch for flashlight.....and tons more.

Remember, the Brits were there long before there was an America. So you
will have to realize you Yanks just don't speak proper English!! LOL.

Not true. We've been *fixing* the English language ever since independence,
slowly sorting out the mish-mash that is the so-called "English" language!
