Firstly you might be thinking, "I didn't know buns could cry!?"

Anyway. I was looking over the framebyframe spanglefish site and I just got so sad when I saw it. It was the good ol' days when everyone in the community was happy and it was spam-free! I'm just wondering if we have the same connection we had then, a constant online buzz and constant posts on the website. I don't feel the same 'buzz' as before so I reckon we should do something we should all work on in a community project!

My Plan: We should create as much Wallace and Gromit artwork as possible and put it into a huge online 'mural'. I think this will bring some team spirit and thought back to the forum! I will not accept things you didn't make or do yourself such as stealing Aardman's work.

If this thread gets a 'star' (or what ever it is, some say sun) it can be seen by all the members and they can just carry on posting to the mural. I am up to do some editing and every image (I hope) will just carry on being added and edited onto it and I will post and update of what it looks like every, 10 images lets say.

This is just a thought and hope I can bring back the good ol' days!

Thanks

That's a great idea! I will upload some myself. Exams will get in the way though

I think the forum is better now than it was late last year. But I think the best times on this forum was 2008, there wasn't to many people on, and they all knew each other and there was pretty much no spam. last year I think was terrible for spam, I think it is getting better though. We still have some of the old members. I don't know who has been on here the longest, but i have been here since '07 and I remember the great threads where everybody would be on and talk. I think TFBM and Quote it and the other threads like that are great, and really bring people on the site together.

I was hear since Early-Mid 2009

GLB thank you! Yeh it is a problem

I'll make a picture or two.

I joined November 17th 2007.

Great idea thetopbun! We look forward to seeing some Wallace & Gromit pictures posted here and might even add something ourselves!

I have been here since July 24th 2008 :] I will make a picture too.

I knew i missed you for a reason thetopbun! fantastic plan- i'll set to it soon... just got to get through my homework * puts laptop down and see all the books piled up*.... later most likely...

Here is a Shaun The Sheep one:

Oops

Good to see you back!! Great Idea btw!!

Might do a few myself if I get the time!

Thanks Kirsten! I agree, you should add a plasticine model of what the administrators look like!

Get to it timmythesheep!

Ursrut, there are kind words and I hope all homework goes well

Shaun The Sheep.

Awesome idea topbun. I don't think I should part considering I was the one who caused alot of argument,directly and indirectly last year,but this is a great idea to get the forum back together.

MORE! Hehe...

MeggyMoo, your picture has been added to the mural folder on my desktop!

CrackingToast, do whatever! You didn't cause much argument last year... Yeh, I really hope it will bring everyone to look at the poster and just think, "This is what our community can do."

agreed! crackingtoast you are part of the community and it is a community moral so go for it!

The h.w went alright thanks topbun. And i will probably have one up on sunday as i have alot to do come tomorrow and saturday. Whoop going to a first aid competition . I've got an idea on that note as well ...

Ursrut is right crackingtoast, whatever you do, you can heal the 'wounds' by contributing!
Good luck in your first aid course Urs, and I think I know your idea!

Okay,I will then.

Good lad!

Thanks topbun i was actually quiet stressed about the comp until i started drawing- I'm actually quiet proud of what i've drawn so far- it isn't brilliant and it isn't coloured ( it may not be coloured in the end either).
I'll post a peek a soon as i've found a memory card for the camera i have

Good good! Can't you scan it?

it's in a A3 sketch pad and i still haven't found it.... but the first aid comp went alright and apparentely we are third ranking in the region which does mean we don't go to the finals but i suppose i can focus on my GCSE's more.

And on Wallace and Gromit more... That's a shame

wallace and gromit drawing

I drew Super Sheep back in March. Sorry it's not W&G.

Fantastic stuff guys and gals! Just 1 or 6 more drawings/models/pictures and I will show the mural...

http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/creations/view/3967

right guys... don't laugh... never again am i going to use those colouring pencils or the camera to take a pictrure.
This is stage 1 in my process

I have added the Piella drawing, but, I think I will wait until there are 10 drawings until I show it so far because it all looks a bit bland.

Ursrut, that is a good start and cannot wait until it is added!

I did a TWT Drawing My Drawing

it didnt work let me try again http://www.wallaceandgromit.com/creations/view/6605

there we go

Cracking! Now we only need 4 more!

I think that this forum, apart from the absence of some of our oldest dearest friends, is soo much better than it was mid 2008 as we don't have nasty people like Morph007 and in more recent times, we don't have spammers like that Subbuteo guy (remember him? )

I LOVE ALL YOU GUYS!!!!! x (sorry for shouting that :wink

Yeh you got that right in my ear! Yeh, it is getting a lot better an a lot cleaner, like the grease has been cleaned off the forum, the low lives are gone.
