or is it considered worldly?.
how are they going to communicate without electricity?.
what will they use to light up kingdom halls during thursday night meetings?.
Don't y'all know.....All power comes from New Light straight from the GB.
Oh wait...why is my alarm clock blinking 12:00? Was that a flicker on the computer monitor....a blip from my UPS backup?
Guess that New Light isn't working out so well.

completely unjw related..other than it is part of my path away from watchtower and on to fun real life stuff... lol.. i am part of a social club on my college campus that works on environmental and sustainability ("green") issues.
last semester we changed the name of the club and i also started on a new logo (currently a 1mb .bmp).
we had someone working on it but they have disappeared.
JD.. I think because of the nature of what the pros do with the logo (uploading the file for use in tshirts and other display elements) it cant be a word doc. I have tons of experience in Microshaft Office... lol
GG and sacolton...I have PMed you my email addy... I cant PM the file, has to be email. I would post the logo here, but I have to maintain what little of my JW fader status I have left....
thanks for your offers of help.... greatly appreciated

going through some of my files... came across some photos of some artwork of mine... thought it might be fun to share with others here who are into art.
so post some of your artwork.
i painted this a couple of years ago... hope this works.... coffee .
What amazing talent we have on this board! I have had the privlege of seeing some of Purps' portfolio in person. It just keeps getting better.
The college I attend is having a 60s theme for this year's spring fest...that would be cool to have purps' art there..it is very 60s looking.. (and that is a good thing)
I never made it much past stick figures and the whole digital thing is passing me by, despite my affinity for computers..
oh...can anyone give me some ideas on what to do with a logo I am working on (I can email the logo).

oh you are going to laugh at me...
Paint.... yep... good ol' Microsoft Paint... I can go down to the pixel level and do things easily.
Paint let me quickly give the club officers/members an idea of what we wanted to do...but now it has to be cleaned up....apparently the college PR staff has to approve all of the new logos going forward...so it needs to be more professional (especially since I stole part of the college logo in a very clever way...LOL).
However, it is not so great at instantly waving a majic wand and making really cool graphics...and I am not the most artistic of individuals.

Last semester we changed the name of the club and I also started on a new logo (currently a 1MB .bmp). We had someone working on it but they have disappeared. The logo should be fine but it needs tweaking to look professional and round off the rough edges... I do not have proper software or knowledge to fix it.
The logo will be used on t-shirts, posters, table skirt, promotional items, etc. Currently it is 2 color (blue and green), though for some applications it will be one.
I know I have seen on this forum some talented people changing Watchtower covers and such .... Is there anyone here that has graphic design expertise that can advise or assist? Even if I can use the software to tweak the logo myself, just some info on HOW would be appreciated. Reply here or PM...I will check in later. any help is appreciated.

thanks for allowing new members.

welcome VIII
my JW mom still will talk JW stuff at me on the phone.... I listen because I love her..but have to curtail it when she tries to get me to go back...I glance through the Kool-Aid editions of the Watchtower when she sends them... just in case she asks if I read them.... I can't lie to my momma...

ps....
and what a great problem we have again...I can't keep up with all the newbies to welcome them...
how do i begin this... i feel like pouring my heart out about something that is bothering me.
i'm getting older.
you know when we were young, we were given hope.
welcome SS..
and yes, I have a hard time trusting also. I did not have sisters lined up at my door when I was in... that despite being told..."oh, you are an elder, pioneer, MTS grad now...the sisters will be swarming...." Not so much... unless you count the bipolar sister I almost married, the desperate sister who had just gotten out of the mental hospital, or the huge sister who was just wanting a man..any man.
Eighteen months away from the Organization, I found it has nothing to do with them being "worldly" versus "JW sisters." There are good women and devious women (and men) in both groups. However, because of my nearly lifelong experience (raised as a dub and as an adult..nearly 35 years), I have huge trust issues with people in general. It had a detrimental effect on dating.
I tried internet (eHarmony) dating.... met a few nice gals ..went on a few dates.....nothing worked out though. Met one nice gal that I remain friends with but do not think we are compatible as more than that. Those dates did help me to crack the JW mindset a bit, though I feel bad for the first two gals that were the poor guinea pigs......
and that so-called "assurance"? Look where that "guarantee" came from....the Governing Body? That's like a guarantee from Bernie Madoff on your investments....just sayi'...
I have met some nice people on this board...to think that many of us used to be your so-called JW "brother" or "sister" and now you will find them to be decent people without that JW qualifier...and I have met some crazies too..... JW-ism had nothing to do with it.

ps...just seen that purps posted.....she is one of the decent people I have met from the board...
wow - finally!.
after several months of reading this forum daily, i'm finally registered and able to post!
i know many of you well from reading current threads almost daily since last summer.
welcome SM and AGBM
