Dear Mari - from where have u dld the image? If its photobucket u can chose a size to save it down into or use PAINT
it lies under START - PROGRAM - ACCESSORIES Open the image in Paint Under the main menu IMAGE u will find this: IMAGE - CHANGE SIZE Here you see a box with 100 % for horizontal and 100 % for vertical. Write 50 in each and press ok and do it again. Then use SAVE AS so that u wont change the original. GOOD LUCK! Last edited by Grey_Wolf : 03-01-2008 at 04:16 AM. |

No it isn't mine. On the original page it's much smaller. I thought about removing the image and just giving the link instead, but actually I thought it looked kinda cheerful and bright, so I think it is fine with this.

I'm having a bit of a problem: I finished translating for today, so I have some time.
But what will I do!?! I have played a game and watched a film. But now I have to decide: start reading a book that I can't finish because I have to get up on time tomorrow, wait for my friends in Japan to wake up and talk to me, continue playing frustrating games which tell me that my brains are the size of a Neanderthaler (Facebook game ), update my weblog or just go to bed. Oh the choices! [/dramatic voice]

Oy, vey! I gots to compose 11 measures of a sonata this weekend (plus a bunch of other stuff)! Yikes! I've only done 17 measures over the past month, and now 11 this weekend...very intimidating.
Anyway, since this IS the Teacup: does anyone know where I can find somewhere online to buy tea? In particular I'm looking for loose-leaf Lady Grey, but also would like to browse a bit and see if I find something else.

Hehe, I know a shop where you can buy Dutch stuff (for expatriats) with delicious goods, but I've never heard of Lady Grey. Is it a bit like Earl Grey, or completely different?
EDIT: Googled it and found this

Say, why does everyone on this board suffer from procrastination problems?

The problem is not that everyone suffers from procrastination problems.
The problem is that people are not yet suffering enough.

More to the point, people come here to do their procrastination.

The Procrastination Monster joins in the lazing about and sings...

My latest example of procrastination: I decided to postpone making an decision about 6 months ago and since then it has come up again twice before (so I ignored it again) and now it's presenting itself again. Perhaps I should finally just make the decision and live with the results (while hoping for the best off course! ). I'm really getting tired of this situation now... Cookie anyone? Not fresh from the oven but I have apfelstrudel cookies! (can't make 'em so I have to buy 'em)
