Some won't like extra Tree Mail either. Don't mean to sound like a downer, but there are people who won't want to do it because they will have to go into Tree Mail to read it and if they have to tell people to not send them acorns, they would feel like they'd be criticized for doing so.

I'm not ready to go through the trouble of making the disabling of this a preference option, but I can disable it just for you, if you'd like. If you want that, let me know and I'll make it so that nobody can share acorns with you.

I don't want a feature just for me, just speaking for people who shut off all apps on facebook because of the extra traffic. Just leave it for now then thanks.

Started out w/a yellow 'cuz I sent in between 10 & 20 "tips", then was awarded the green for sending in another 20 more "tips". Dunno if any of 'em were good though. Removed the yellow bulb.

Thanks Charleen and Lynn ... my senior moment passed, I edited out one of the duplicate photo's from my earlier post. Geesh, I've done it before but I guess I must have been in a brain fog earlier. Big Grin

Toni just received her green lightbulb today and I hadn't had a chance to take off the other one yet.

(Hey, I'm slow at my housekeeping!)

No worries, Hetty- you aren't missing anything Rolling on the floor laughing

Toni- your tips were fabulous! It just took me awhile to get to them!

Gymgirl, I can't claim the squirrel. It ended up in my post when I did a quote from skiekitty. It's her squirrel. Isn't it the cutest thing? Lovey dubby

Well, found this a little late to get in on the acroms. Should not have spent so much time at the thrift store. Hilarious! Oops I meant acorns

Yep, Samigal, I missed out too. I was too busy catching up on all the threads I missed from the last 3 days when I was out of commission. This site moves fast!
