    Default "Will the new members please come forward?"

    i'm H, and i'm a graphic-designaholic (nervously).

    i've been using graphic design for about 7 years and finally deciding to try to make it a full-time biz. (ok - so that's kind of the opposite of any kind of -aholic, but you get the idea.)

    vangogh is my good friend and has been urging me to join for awhile, meet the good people here, partake of donuts and stale coffee. so here i am! looking forward to meeting all of you, learning more about small biz in general and hopefully adding some constructive help when i can. (weak smile)

    Let me welcome you on behalf o the forum H. I'm sure you'll get be happy to get to know everyone. Lots of great people here already and more joining every day.

    Yep H is a good friend of mine so I hope everyone will treat her well.

    We do have coffee and donuts available in the lounge. The coffee is always ready, but the last one to arrive in the morning needs to bring the donuts. mmm...donuts.

    Hi Just H, admitting you have a problem is half the battle. Good luck in your business!

    Hey, Just H. I was wondering when we might see you here. For those of us who don't care for coffee, we also have tea and a nice mug of cocoa for the chocoholics among us. I'm down with the donuts though!

    We're a good group here and I think you'll enjoy being part of the forum.

    hello H,

    I never noticed the doughnuts until recently. But I will be raiding them on occasion and running back to where I am.

    --Although many of us have met Vangogh... virutally few ever have face-to-face contact.

    Welcome to the forums.

    Welcome aboard. As a fellow graphics guy who also owns a business, I look forward to getting to know you better. Having a sense of humor in business sure helps too, and you've got that one covered. And it looks like the secret is out on our stash of coffee and donuts in the lounge.
