Nice to see you Bill, bags and all ![]()
Roger
Bill, if I might make a suggestion. Instead of writing your post and then pressing 'Submit' press the 'Preview' instead. You will then be able to see how your post will appear and make any corrections before you 'Submit' it.
I always do this. It gives me chance to see whether I have any spelling mistakes or typo's and, if I am posting a photo, I can see a/ whether I have got the URL right and b/ check whether the photo is the right size for the page,
Roger
I 'Preview'ed this and corrected my punctuation ![]()
I am having no issues with Win10 (I hope I am not tempting fate saying that). Everything is the same as it was apart from closing down is so much simpler.
Roger
P.S. I upgraded from 8.1.
No Bill, once the change is made the original cannot be viewed.
Roger
I have to say if any of the content of this proposed CD contain expletives in it then count me out.
I am from the old school. OK we all will swear if hurt or shocked as it is done on impulse but to write or record swear words is done as a deliberate attempt to upset or offend. There are far better adjectives in the English language that can be used without resorting to bad language.
Roger
UJB, It is obviously a fake. the label says it was made in Nazareth and everyone knows that is where Jesus came from and it is in Israel, not the USA. So, if you bring it To Amy's when I am there next week I will take it to Portugal and save you any embarrassment.
Seriously, great guitar for 3.5 hours work.
Roger
I am game, count me in.

Whoopi can share my bed if it makes accommodating her easier. ![]()

Hi Rob,
OK, if you cannot take a screenshot, have you at least e-mailed 'admin' and explained the situation?
Roger
NOTE TO EVERYONE The admin guru that sorts these thing out does not check in here every day, but he does check his e-mails daily, hence the request to e-mail him. Thank you.
Hey Russ this is the sort of thing I use, it plugs just into a USB port to power the fan or fans.
Roger

Russell, I always run my laptops on a tray with a cooling fan since I had a similar problem some time ago and I have not had the same happen since (touch wood). They are not expensive these days.
Roger
I have had an i-phone, an android phone and a windows phone and given them all away as useless junk. I now have a phone that is a phone, a computer that is a computer and a camera that is a camera. They each do exactly as I want them to do, quicker, easier and with superior results than a composite item; I am a now happy man.
Roger
I know there are some (but not all) Android tablets having this problem. If someone send me a screenshot I will be able to fix it.
Any reports from other platforms with issues, are appreciated. Ads should not cover songs/menus.
I hope you guys have done this. Admin needs to see what is happening and know what equipment I affected to resolve it. I am afraid that just passing a comment here will not make it happen. ![]()

Bill...
I certainly agree with your estimation of the talent within the Chordie family, and I'm sure that talent spans the whole range of skill levels. The common thing that bonds us is that we all love music and guitars, and this site celebrates that union in a non-competitive, inviting atmosphere. I think we can each recognize great work as it's posted, without making it a contest. In the end, it is the effort, creativity, and the love of song that 's being recognized and rewarded. If the writer enjoyed creating it, then it's mission accomplished.
Just my 2-cents worth.
I am in complete agreement with TF here and I feel that bringing in an element of competition would bring a detrimental effect to Chordie.
On a couple of occasions we have had several people record the same song but that was for fun and to see how different people interpret lyrics and chords, not an "I am better than you" thing.
My 2-penny worth.
Roger
If you wold like to forward the original picture (not one you have reduced) to me I will do it for you.
Roger
You can also do it with Paint that comes free with Windows.
Roger
The Windows 8.1 laptop that needed the updates has just gone to Windows 10
. The third one which I use in the shop and currently has Windows 7, I needed to perform the registry change but now it is ready for me to upgrade to Win10 on Monday when I am back in the shop.
It will be nice to have them all the same.
Roger
I am pretty it has to be less than 10kb and no more than 60x60 (that is configuration of what I have used).
Roger
Well I pre-booked three for my laptops. I did however use a different e-mail address for each of them.
Roger
I have it on one laptop but neither of the other two. Just checked for updates and installed 8 but still no Win10 on re-start and no fail message in update history. I guess I am still in the queue for this one and I will check the one in the shop tomorrow. ![]()
Roger
Dino, I think you have misunderstood Bill in this instance. This is the 'Songwriting' section and I am sure that he offered it as a suggested topic for a new song to be composed.
Perhaps Bill should attempt writing a song too ![]()
Roger
OK I have just returned home and switched on, I got an e-email message about this thread that Baldguitardude replied at 6:45 (my time) saying "I just added a message. What happened?" but none of the later ones are mentioned.
I got an e-mail also for the Friday's blues fix I got Dino's "sonny browney and some summertime from mkm,all good!" but no mention of the later message from Bill.
Just as our Amy said would happen. So it all appears to be working OK for me.
Bill let us know if Amy's tweak has made any difference.
Roger
Just a point as an afterthought; Bill you do switch your computer, laptop or whatever off between visits, don't you? If you do not switch it off you will not get fresh notifications.
Lo and behold! On checking my e-mails before I came here I had two messages that mekidsmom had posted on both threads that I had subscribed to. I said to myself "Thank you Amy, you are testing to see if they are working"
and they are.
I now need to see what happens when further messages are added.
Roger
2- 12 guitar
1- 8 mandolin
9- 6 guitar
2- 4 ukulele

and if you count the violin (which I cannot play) that makes a nice round 100. ![]()
Roger
OK a couple of the guitars are only temporary (damaged and in for repair and then re-sale).
OOOOoooooouch I do hope we will get to see some pictures and maybe some video. Fearless leader is still coming right (Roger Guppy)? Well at least we have pre season football coming up.
Although I like the "Fearless Leader" title, that belongs to Per and not I, I am merely the longest serving (still active) minion ![]()
But yes, I am still coming, the plane ticket was paid for months ago and I am now beginning to get quite excited.
