Judy26 - Firefox isn't letting me access it either - says the security certificate isn't configured correctly grammadee - I'll try signing up again in a few days and see if it works then Hoping you get through next time. I contacted GIS and they assure me that the site IS safe. They suggest using Chrome if other search engines are rejecting the site.

I signed up again, but I don't expect to get a lot accomplished this year. We shall see.

I might just jump in for Calvinball this year. I need to start - and finish - my DD!

I decided to sign up again. I just want to keep up the momentum I have going on this month. I won't be competitive, but I'm still going to be productive, which is my real goal. I also decided to revisit last year's monthly sketch challenges to help me along. I had to scale back my scrapping when spring came along, so there are a bunch of challenges I never attempted. Looking forward to the fun next month! ETA: Well, shoot. I entered my account info from last year, and I'm getting the security message too. I'm going to keep trying, but what a pain in the neck ETA: Aw, I'm sorry grammadee. I give up. I can't get access to my old account and I can't open a new one. I'll just have to be content with playing along on our board.

I had such a GREAT time playing along last year and got so much done! But this year I have work stuff going on so I'm not sure yet I'll be able to do anything. Will decide in the next week or so if signing up will just stress me out more or if it will motivate me.

Three more days to sign up for the February point.
Not sure how much I will get done this year, either after 28-4-28, but I had a lot of fun the last couple of years.
And hey, with the March 5th deadline for our challenges, we can get points both places for our creations the first few days!

Ready to do some double dipping? Any creations you claim as points for 28-4-28 March 1st to 5th can also be claimed for Calvinball points. And don't forget that you may be able to claim extra points over there if you submit that style or colour or element for bonus point and that becomes an accepted "rule".
Just a note about Avatars on the GIS site. If you want your profile pic to show up on the Forum, you need to upload it to Gravatar first (or choose one from that site) and then link that pic to your GIS profile. Since most of the activity has moved over to their FB site, some of the features of their forum have been lost. But they are working hard to get the forum running smoothly for Calvinball.

grammadee you're a bad influence I've been and signed up for Calvinball2018, I must be stark, staring mad! I blame you and your exuberant energy seeping into my quiet life and making me... well, more active, at least online I'm glad it's on a forum; I don't understand how anything like this could work in a Facebook Group, they're incomprehensible to follow!

msliz - let's play along together here - I gave up also If I get some scrap time this weekend, I'm going to keep posting on the Feb challenge threads until the 5th. But after that I'll be putting my layouts up on Calvinball threads. I bet we can funnel some of that fun our way!

I have a question about points on Calvinball. One of the rules has shiny things and enamel shapes in the same rule. If I use glitter letters and enamel dots, do I count that as two points or just one?
