I don't know if many of you care, but, I probably won't be around as much anymore. I'll just go into detail instead of having a bunch of you guys asking "Why?" :
My net time is being cut down. Leaving me less time on the net. The reason it's being cut down, is because I have crappy eye-sight, and when I'm on the PC, I'm straining my eyes to read. It'll probably last for another good month before I can find out if I can waste my life away on the PC like I used to do (boy, those were the good days! :D). And when I strain my eyes, I feel "Spacey" (IE: when you're sick, and you get up from watching 3 hours of TV, and nothing feels real..or as another board member put it: "there..but not really there").
I just thought I'd let you guys know..I doubt if I'll be able to make many avatars anymore (sorry.. :()...and doubt if I'll be posting as much anymore....
Hope none of you miss me too much.. :p :D

That sucks! It was great having you around, and it'll be great if you could stop by whenever you can. About your crappy eyesight, do you wear glasses or contacts? Or is it the strain of staring at the monitor that is the problem?

Of course we'll miss you, and of course we care!! I hope everything goes okay with your eyes. I know we all want you to keep hanging around here. You're a great and very helpful person who makes great avatars! :D Thank you very much for keeping us up to date.

I don't wear glasses..and it'll probably be at least a month and a half before I'm even able to get a pair...THEN maybe I'll be able to get on more... :)
Thanks for the kind words guys....hopefully this whole post will prove useless a month or two from now.. :D

That's too bad, it's great having you around here. Everybody really used to seeing you too, anyway, thanks for telling us this. Though it's not really going to be the same not having you around as much.

Yeah, man, of course we care. So thanks for telling us. And i hope that everything turns out okay. And it has been great to have you around in the past, so it will be great to have you around in the future. Even if it's not that much:)

Ouch. Sorry about hearing you have to get glasses and cut back. And of course it won't be the same without you. Still, it's for the best, I guess...and we'll be ready to welcome you back with open arms for when you come back, so come back soon! :cool:

I'm sure you'll be back in full force once you get some glasses. In the meantime, give those eyes a rest!
Take it easy,

A month and a half? Whoa, can't you just get your eyes checked out next week and bring your prescription to the local Eyecrafter (or whatever) store? Shouldn't take more than a week to make.

I don't really know what to say that the others haven't. So I'll just look forward to your return to normalcy. :)

Hey Bird_Boy Sorry to see you go but at least you said you will be on every once in awile. The same thing happend to me from sitting to close to the t.v. over the years I to had to limit my posting you see I don't have a Computer and I regestered over the summer and during the summer I stay at my grandparents and then when school started I went home (about 30 miles away)
and now I have to go to the library and only get on about twice a week insted of about 14 hours a day every day but I will probably get a Computer for Christmas but this is Bird_Boy post not so you probably don't care,
agian Bird_Boy hope to see you soon and remember your sight is everything without it you could'nt read my post;)
Have a nice recreational " vacation" Bird_Boy.
We'll cya in the Future!

Well, Bird_Boy try to come back soon. I understand about the vision thing. My sight has been screwed up since I was eight years old.

Bird_boy, one of my first posts here on the boards was a post commending you for your helpful, friendly attitude toward helping everybody with their avaters. My understanding of the TZ control panel and functions such as avatars etc is entirely down to you - my sincerest thanks.
I said it then, I'll say it now - you're a great guy, and I'm sure you'll be missed a great deal until you manage to resolve your problem.
Hurry back.
