Does anyne know how to do this? I have googled for advice and followed the instructions but cant seem to make it happen. I normally hit alt and prtsc buttons and save to my editing folder.

I think I would try other avenues first before a wedding fair, try and think outside the box.
How about offering a local radio station free balloons in a competition, the listeners could win there wedding being decorated by you. All the free airplays and they may even interview you as well. Now that sounds like a possible plan which I never had when I started to write this post.

We had the site upgraded yesterday with the latest forum template so I expect the site was down for a while to sort this out and all the time on here I have never used the "view active topics" button. I always click in via "view new posts"
I will see if we can sort this out on Monday, there may also be a few other odd things going on since the upgrade?
If anyone finds any please let us know.
We have also added extra spam filters and made the automatic joining feature active again and so far no spam, so fingers crossed.

Hi Twisty,
As so few, well one actually had a go I was hoping to miss posting instructions especially as I'm into the Christmas shows now.
It is based on a variation of Thelma's father Xmas that was posted with instructions here; viewtopic.php?f=19&t=860

Hopefully this will help? If not I'll try and post later. Can you post your effort and then we can give you some guidance on where it may be going wrong for you.

Balloon Chit Chat / First Christmas show of the year
December 04, 2009, 08:24:07 PM
Did the first Christmas show of the year this morning for a small playgroup in Norwood. For the past five years or so I have been doing a themed show all to do with a Christmas tree and adding all the decorations etc. It made a nice change from the usual birthday party magic show that I normally do, it was a little ring rusty and I will nee to speed up as I only got to do six of the planned seven effects in a 45 min show with all the balloons being Christmas related as well.
Last night I was making up the Christmas balloons to make sure I remembered how they all went and hit upon two new variations on the angel that we showed last week at the Leeds day and a nice new ride in reindeer which are both quick enough for the real world.
Will try and get some pictures and post them later.

If anyone came to the magical seminar days that we run this year I forgot all about putting this show into the notes, so there is something else for me to do when I get a few minutes.

Picture Gallery / Guitar for Zakh
December 04, 2009, 08:16:40 PM
Zakh came around today and I made him a guitar a few weeks back so as soon as he got in the door he wanted another one. I only had 160's to hand and liked the look of this, although it may need a little bit of fine tuning  :D  
He was not hapy about me getting a picture of him with it  :(

Balloon Chit Chat / Forum update
December 04, 2009, 03:03:03 PM
We have just had the latest version of the forum template uploaded onto the site so one or two things may look a little different?
The automatic joining function has als been updated and you can now join automatically which hopefully will add a few extra members and we have added some spam software to hopefully stop what was happening before with all the naughty sites loading up details.
If anyone does spot this before Danny & I then please either get in touch via the forum or give us a call so that we can remove this ASAP. Thanking you.

So far so good, we have sent the first lot of parcels out today with the courier.
Printed everything from the website which was nice and easy to use and they were meant to pick up the parcels between three & five and at 2.45 were here.
So hopefully will be with everyone in 48 hours and all with a tracking number.
