Hi Everyone,
just a note to let you know that I have uploaded over 100 new images to the free image site. Including 2 new categories: Tickets/Coupons and Photos only for vintage and cabinet images.
As well, we have started a new category for Member Collections. member Collections are images that PDA members have in their own personal collections that they would like to share with other members.
Kay Mace has offered up a lovely collection of postcards and photos from her own stash.
Whether it is photos, or vintage postcards (must be your own) or even cool textures and foliage that you take with your digital camera. Feel free to drop me a note if you are interested in sharing some of those images.
You can find all of
these new image categories by looking
under the free image tabs on main page.Oh yeah and dont for get you need to get the password from the
Key Master Group.

Hi Everyone,
A new theme challenge for Pocket Packet Friday has been posted on PDA in the usual
PDA ning blogThere is also a new tab on the main page with a drop down menu called QUICK FIND check it out.
This is going to be a place to find stuff that is current and you need a quick answer. If nothing else, it will send you on a wild goose link chase. But is should sort of make things easier.
QUICK FIND will have many more layers as I get caught up so check often for the latest tidbits.
