Wow! I love it!
Here's a history of this site: This was my very first attempt at making a group site. The date of the Welcome message from MSN tells ya how long this site has been opened. At one time it was attached to a MSN user created chatroom which was only used when the main chatroom (we were known as Detroit Adults) would get into fights or drama issues.
I came up with the name Paradise because it would be a quiet place to come to when the chatroom got out of hand! I made this as sort of a peaceful place, Near a quiet beach, a gentle walk in the park sort of theme. I really don't have any "color preferences" for the overall look so any color scheme works.
Some but not all of my poems are posted here. The majority are posted on the original Detroit site which in fact was the second group created when the manager of the original disappeared. (The story of that isn't needed here but can be provided. lol)
As you can tell I love writing...(lol) Poetry isn't actually my first writing experience and I actually prefer short stories to poems but it was a poem that first got published and afterwards I merely stuck with poetry. I think I'm gonna start going back towards short stories, and maybe perhaps Novels. ~A dream of mine that seems to have resurfaced lately~
Some of the original messages are still posted on other boards but updated in order to keep the group opened. There's even an archived page of some negativity when a chatter decided to cause problems for someone. It was moved here from the chatroom in order to keep it out of the public and to make the chat fun... I've kept it here as a reminder of why this group was originally constructed. (To keep that sort of stuff out of the chatroom) It can be accessed by request.
I'm adding most of this info to give you an idea of an overall feel I want new members to have when they join.
Re: PSP
- I obtained my first PSP 7 software in 2002 (It was full version - don't ask how I got the full version) And with that I made "sparkly name tags" I don't know if I still have the very first one I made but I know it started my fascination with tags.
- Not sure when it happened but I suddenly had to complete restore my computer and since I didn't know how to save programs I lost PSP 7!
 But not for long...
- There was a sale at Best Buy for the Anniversary Edition... (I originally had the reg. non anniversary edition) that I finally couldn't handle it no more and purchased a LEGAL full version! (I also had Bryce 4 which I finally just ordered this past Saturday- Bryce 5 actually) I also had Terregan which I finally re-downloaded this year after a 2 year absence. Also had Photoshop 7 which disappeared with yet another reformat and have a gift copy of Photoshop CS which was a Christmas present. Yes it's a full legal version!
 Since purchasing PSP 7 I was entitled to reduced upgrade prices for PSP 8 and then 9! I have all 3 installed. In addition to the above named programs I also have Reflet, Expression 3, Daz Studio, Corel Painter XI (A paid full version I got for less then $200!) It's now back up to about $4+ and now when it's on sale it's $200+ to get. I got lucky there! Whew! I also have PSP Photo Album 5.
I haven't played much in those programs as I would have liked so my creativity only comes in spurts. None of my groups were PSP groups but merely diary type groups with no real intention behind them. But after seeing all these great PSP groups out there and only after joining the GILD did I even think about changing my groups over to PSP friendly 짤 friendly groups.
I tried changing my Detroit group over but no one was biting. Member there don't post unless there's controversy regarding chat or a party. The Detroit group still lists dates and locations where we would have our chat parties to make is safe for members to meet people. I have over 200 member over there who only check in to see when the next party is held. Since PSP groups require some sort of participation I decided that this would be a better group to change then the Detroit one.
Since I have the bad habit of hardly posting here I thought I would make this post fairly long. (well no not thought - since I like to write, I'm afraid that unless I pre-write my posts in notepad first I tend to make my message posts kinda large!) Which is also part of the reason I don't post too often in other groups cause some of those don't want to read novels! lol
Any help you can give or suggest will be very helpful to me. If you wish to be made asst manager let me know... I am confident that you pass my special trusting requirements. (Not too many do pass this as I'm quite picky)
Current Manager List
I feel I need to explain about the current manager list... Though it may seem I have a lot of managers here, I don't. Most of them are my other accounts with only perhaps about 3 being actual other people. I've known them over 3 years and have met them in person.
It would be extremely hard to require that my managers be people who I've met in person since in the PSP world members are from all over! (That used to be a requirement on the Detroit site - You had to have attended a chat party where I would meet you in person or live close enough were a meeting could be arranged.)
There is one rule, however that I've initiated concerning posting! Since the default General board is "undeletable" I made a new "General Message" board so that members wouldn't post on this board. Even the count for this board only goes backwards should a thread need deleted for whatever reason, etc. I've discovered that fact when I would go to the "View all Message" boards and see negative numbers for this board anytime I would delete a thread and it drove me nuts! Yea yea I had way too much time on my hands!
Normally I would have moved this over to the proper area but since your design was so pretty, I decided to leave it. The link for the "Main" posting board is M串짠짠퓨g串짠 and is where all "general postings" go!
Ok! I think that about says it all! If I missed anything you can ask me through the managers link! Since I'm basically the only manager (the others don't even mess with the site but they were promoted so they didn't have to go through the moderated process) You can leave your E-mail address that way and I will then be able to get back with you using my "main E-mail account"
I hope this isn't too long for you but I just couldn't stop writing for the life of me. My fingers just wouldn't stop! You can respond using the M串짠짠퓨g串짠 link provided here.
I will change your status (if that is ok - If you're too busy it's understandable, but in case you wish to put the page up yourself it will make it easier for you! Plus I'm sure you won't do any damage
 .)around 1pm EST when I get back from errands and appointments.
Your page is awesome and is exactly within the theme of the original concept of this group.

Im glad you like the webset and I too love poetry although I dont write many of my own, but I do use a friends poems on 99.9% of all my pages in my groups.
I do not need a status change as being a member only status is preferable for me
Just let me know the pages you need made ( title, headers, buttons and theme) and I can make them happily and send you the html code to paste onto the page.
As all the set pieces are uploaded to my Photobucket, it is ok to direct link.
Takes about 10-20 minutes to make a webset, finding the right image for the set takes the longest
Great group
Take care
Ice
