Hi! First, I want to tell you that I am loving these arrows!! What great textures & realism! Thank you so much for sharing them! Second, I must confess my guilt! *hangs head in shame* I DL your templates the other day, and I don't think I ever came back to say Thank You!! I am so sorry!! I get easily distracted by my two kids (1 & 2yo) and when I get a chance to come back, I forget what I was doing! Not an excuse, though! My mother taught me better than that, and I am truly sorry! Thank you for all of your hard work and your creative talent that you share with us!! It is appreciated! :)

Hi
first time here, but agree so much in waht you're saying. As someone else has written here, we teach to our childrend to say "thanks", so why don't we do the same?

***thanks***

Dear Hummie, as they say in the English Parliament: hearhear! In the last few days I noticed freebies that 10, 15 or even 25 people had taken, yet no one had even said thanks! I couldn't help to leave harsh comments - my DH says I'm becoming a true Dutchie: opinionated!. I am a novice at digital scrapping (still reading the book for dummies, LOL) and only recently found out that there are talented designers sharing their work and write tutorials. I take great advantage of your/their generosity and knowledge. It gives me the opportunity to experiment with different styles and to see what works for me. I appreciate this so much and it upsets me that so many people just "grab and go". I am sure our parents tought us better and I hope your entry is a wake up call for everyone!

Hummie, When I was still new to digi scrapping world, I'm one of those people who grab and go. Never realizing how designer's spend their time creating those lovely kits. But things change, when I started creating my own kits and sharing it to others. A little thank you won't hurt anybody. I think we(designers) need a lot of them so we know what other's think of our work and to have them is like waiting for a star from the sky to fall down. I pity those people who until now never realize how lucky they are to recieve a freebie from someone. there are so many things to do besides making freebies.

2007-10-02T20:35:56.608-05:00

I too leave at least a little thank you 'cause I know I get disheartened when I've worked on something and get not even a little acknowledgement in return. I've read people prefer to have comments on their blogs instead of 4shared...others don't care. So, what is the general preference? I'd prefer my blog...what's yours?

2007-10-01T20:42:10.133-05:00

Yesterday was the first time I've downloaded from your freebies, and I have to say they are very nice staples! And the arrows are great too. I'll be using them for sure. I'm new to all this so please forgive those of us who are not quite up to speed with proper thanks!!!

2007-10-01T16:34:50.208-05:00

Actually - it's a recognized phenonomen that people will say and do things on the internet that they wouldn't dream of doing in person - and I assume that means taking the time to say thank you as well. I maintain a genealogy website so I have been encountering this problem for years! there are actually physcological studies that have been done about this problem (*CAN* you believe!?) Once in a great while I get some feedback from someone about the info I have put up on my website that makes it all worthwhile; I can only hope that you do, too. I enjoy your craft - and I thank you for sharing it!

2007-10-01T10:56:47.390-05:00

this was the first time i have ever been to your blog to grab a freebie, so i wanted to thank you for that...i read what you wrote and it is sad...i also saved your feed to my reader so that i can visit you back in the future, i hope you decide to continue the freebies...

Thanks

2007-10-01T09:40:09.021-05:00

Hummie, these arrows are WONDERFUL! I need to get back on my "fun" computer so I can grab them. But the textures and colors within them are superb! Thanks for making them.

2007-10-01T09:02:36.279-05:00

Ohhhh I love how you said this!! I so agree with you, and get tired of asking for comments on my freebies, yet figure if I don't ask, I won't get ANY...I am always greatful for the few I get, but always wonder how there can be so few, compared to the number of downloads! I think I'm going to go back to the bottom of the post I just made with a freebie, and post a link to this blog post, I hope you don't mind! It says it all for me! LOL Thanks so much for your freebie, but most of all, thanks for what you said!! :) I think people are loosing the ability to be courteous these days...or maybe they just figure they don't have to be online.

2007-10-01T09:02:20.335-05:00

Hummie, I havent had the chance to download any of your freebies yet, but I do come in here everyday to read your posts and thats because they are always so interesting. You were the first one to visit my new blog when I started and I know I didnt say it then ..But Thank you for that and for your wonderful posts. Consider yourselve HUGGED for the day!!!

2007-09-30T22:05:41.433-05:00

This is my first time visiting your blog and I just wanted to say thanks for the freebie!

Sorry you don't get much love. I don't think people mean to be rude and not show their appreciation. I just think in general everyone is always in a rush and they just don't take the time.

Love the arrows! Hope more people take the time to show their appreciation!

2007-09-30T20:04:03.428-05:00

I agree with you Hummie. I never realized how important comments were until I posted a freebie and waited for the comments. We are all in such a rush these days that we tend to forget those around us which is so sad. Thank you for the lovely freebie and all you have contributed to thescrapping community.

2007-09-30T18:28:04.224-05:00

Thank you for the wonderful "thing-a-ma-jigs"! Love them.

We have become a "take & go" society overall, gimme what's mine. It's a sad state of affairs.

Thank you for your kindness, talent and generosity.

Many blessings - Hugs & Smiles from FL

2007-09-30T18:06:50.412-05:00

You are absolutely right. I am also guilty of downloading in a hurry and not taking the time to leave a comment. Believe me, I do appreciate the time and effort spent designing the freebies; but how do you know that if I do not take time to comment.

Thank you very much!

I believe more people leave comments on 4shared because they do so while waiting for the file to download.

2007-09-30T17:41:21.785-05:00

I am sorry that you are upset, but I cannot blame you. Everytime I download at the very least I say Thank You. I try to write more if the "spirit moves me" or if I'm coherant enough to put more than 2 words together-lol. Keep up the beautiful work!

2007-09-30T17:24:50.488-05:00

I, like some of the others here needed to be put in my place, and I'm sorry for needing it. I don't think it is intentional that we (I) don't use our manners, we just seem to get so wrapped in our own lives and the hurry that accompanies it. There is no good excuse. Please accept my apologies. I love your blog and come here often, there is so much that you have here of interest! Thank you, thank you for being so giving

2007-09-30T17:04:15.282-05:00

I have wanted to write a similar rant before. I teach my children to say please and thank you. How can I expect them to do it if I don't. Sometimes I think people think that they don't have to use manners just because people can't see them. We know they were there because of the number of downloads. Hopefully, your rant will make more people think about their manners.
