I can understand that Emma - it's really kind of you!

lol Em.. you'll regret you said that, I'm sure Catpagers will keep giving you more and more to do if they were given half the chance

Seriously tho, I think it's really kind of you to do them for free, but please let me know if it becomes too much and we'll go with the competition thing or something similar to ease the load Perhaps tie it in with Yolas Caption Competition idea or something?

Maybe we could bring this in once all the current members have had one each? I know you are too nice to say no and I'd hate anyone to take advantage of that.

On a slightly different note, perhaps it is time you got your own section on Catpages
I think it would be handy as it could contain threads/stickies:

Requests (Where people can place requests by posting the picture)
Status/que (Where you can list how many you have got on, and mark them off as you do them)
Paintings Done (where you can post the finsihed masterpiece so we can all see )

And people can post other threads if they have questions etc.

I think having it laid out clearly like that will let people see whats going on and make it easier for you to keep track of requests etc.

Please feel free to PM me of you would rather talk about it privately

A good idea Az.....Emma certainly deserves her own section!

Hi Az, wow I would love my own section One of the big problems I do have is keeping track of all of the requests, and I rarely update my spreadsheet as it can time me a couple of hours to update properly and I would rather spend the time drawing

Thank you very much

I agree completely with Donna; happy to wait, and have already made a donation in advance to Aley Cat Allies, a trap, spay & neuter, release organization here in the States Anything this good is worth waiting for; and it never occurred to be about the Inland Revenue

Hi,
It's a great idea having a section for Emma, and of course I can wait for a masterpiece like the other she has already produced. I will donate to our local animal sanctuary where we take our shredded paper.

As an aside, so many people use shredders nowadays and then recycle it with the refuse collectors, but we donate it to local sanctuary and they use it for bedding for small animals like gerbils etc. I think it's better to see it being used rather than just reconsituted and sold off to many some large company more money.
cheers
