Noooooo! Don't post it here! She came with no warning and I looked awful!!!!

MSKKG · #17 05-09-2008, 10:29 PM

What can I say, gee ess? I'm just a Kappa nut!

No, carnation, you looked fine, but I was only going to try to post the cover anyway.

I've scanned it to my PC--now what? Y'all are talking to the most techo-UNsavvy person on the planet!

Sorry, I am no help with technical stuff. Using the word "scan" and actually "posting" on threads, is where my expertise ends! Maybe the people on the "Post a picture of your house" thread could help? They all seem to be able to do it.

Ok, I know the answer! Now you have to put in online in some fashion. It can be on an image hosting website like photobucket or it can be in an album on Facebook or MySpace. Once it's there, right click on the picture and copy the image location. Then come back to GC and click on the button that says "insert image" when you hold your mouse over it. Put the URL there and you're good to go.

This was our RIF Quilt on the NoVA KKG website. All hand-appliqued and hand-quilted! The picture doesn't do it justice.

Alrighty, here's the picture of carnation's beautiful iris! Yay!

MSKKG · #22 05-12-2008, 06:33 PM

Thanks for doing that for me! Isn't it beautiful?!?

memories....like the corners of my mind....la la la la....

MSKKG, I am really jealous that I don't have my old Keys. What a great idea to collect them! It has to be interesting to look back at the evolution of kappa through those issues and note the changes that have been implemented in chapter programming, etc. I wonder if they have these old issues available online?

Hint, hint, LucyKKG, as the youngster of the group, you could start now and be the next MSKKG!

Thanks for posting - now, what about the pic of Carnation with her creation? You know, in the name of thorough historical accuracy as well as posterity!

Well, carnation requested that her picture not be posted--she thought she looked bad, but she didn't. In the spirit of Monmouth Duo love and friendship, I will honor her request.

I'm not sure if the online version of very old issues would be available. I'm not even sure how far back the online issues go. I kind of doubt you could see the whole issue, but you may be able to do a search for a particular topic (that's not a lot of help if you don't know what was published to begin with--HAHAHA!!!).

It's not too late to start collecting, gee ess! You may be able to get some of your missing copies from HQ (they have issues of "lost" Kappas, but I'm not sure how long they keep them). It is fun to see how things have changed.

I probably have all of them, actually. After all, only about 4 have come out since we were installed. My chapter has been in 2 of them. BAM!

I submitted an article which was printed in this year's winter edition. It was about mentoring and being an advisor. I had 2 photos published along with it! One photo was me with another adviser and the other was of me and 6 actives. All photos were from 2006 Convention!

The day that Key was delivered was amazing. My husband said "now you are a published author". Wow.

Loyally,
Vicki

Some of the recent grads from our chapter were in the summer issue of The Key, sitting in front of our infamous Westcott Fountain. Actually, this was my first issue of The Key, I hope to keep collecting them throughout the years.
