Rules and information / Tips for using this forum
March 30, 2008, 09:07:07 PM
This list will grow over time.

First tip is :
How to activate a pop-up if I have a new massage?

I want to see if I have received a PM. So I installed the option that I get an email if someone sends me a PM. But I also wanted to have a pop-up when I visit the forum that I have a PM waiting for me.
Here is the option you need to select in the User Control Panel (link at top right corner)

Balloon Chat Challenge / Cars the Movie
March 27, 2008, 09:14:24 PM
I was asked for Lightning from the movie cars. Never heard of it (education problem, I know) so I watched the movie and looked for a model on the internet but could not find any. So I made my own.
This version uses a white and red 5 inch balloon and a red 260 for the frame and a black 260 for the tires.

Rules and information / Big changes....
March 24, 2008, 08:11:42 PM
Graham has asked me to do some work for the forum because I had a lot of experience with a similar forum.
Sadly it turned out that the forum I had used PHPBB version 2.23 and this forum uses PHPBB version 3.0
I thought that there would not be to many differences but I seem to made a big mistake there........

Version 3 of this software is totally different from version 2.23 so I have to experiment a bit to get things going. I apologize up front because there will be mistakes but I need some time to get myself familiar with this new software.

I will do my best not to make irreversible changes so that all the postings will be kept.
No promises though, so if you post something that is valuable to you, make a back-up!!

Balloon Chit Chat / Re: Dave from wiltshire

Quote from: "Graham Lee"Seems a very big picture & poor quality,
no doubt someone will tell me where I'm going wrong?

Graham Lee

Oooh. my favorite part....
Start by telling what program you used and the size of the original. Looking at the text below the pic., it looks like you did the process 3 times.
First, what program did you use
Second, size of the original
Third, describe what you did

Do you want to do it here or make a seperate thread?

Welcome / Wim from the Netherlands
March 23, 2008, 09:27:19 AM
Just a quick introduction.
My name is Wim, I live in the Netherlands and am a hobby twister who does perform (but not as much as he wants   :D
I am married, have a daughter age 6 and perform only with balloons (sometimes even with my daughter).
We go busking together in the summer and I perform on birthday's and on parties. I like performing very much and continuously try to get better at it.
I would say my skill level in twisting is above beginner.

Being from the Netherlands means that English is not my native language. I hope you all do not mind that I will be making some terrible language errors or some strange sentences. I really do try the best I can but undoubtedly I will make some very stupid mistakes, I apologize up front.
