My Tag Extras

So, I am trying to decide if I want to share my tag extras in my new group (that I reopened). I have had issues in the past of people not following my terms of use when using my tag extras so that has put me off from sharing them. But I do have a lot of them and I hate to think they are just sitting there when they could be used by others. But again, I am still worried that some people just don’t care about your terms of use these days. They just want to grab and share whatever they find in online groups. Even if it doesn’t belong to them.

I’m pretty sure that’s why some PTU tube artist’s finally decided to stop selling there tubes because they had the same problem. It’s sad really because I loved purchasing PTU tubes from artists. Now, there are hardly any PTU tube shops open anymore and even those that are still open aren’t doing very well with the likes of AI generators popping up everywhere. Don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against the AI generators but I have found that the images that you turn out using them are nothing compared to an artist’s work.

Today there are but a few places that I will actually purchase tubes for my tag making anymore. And when you make as many tags as I do, you always want to use all different type of images and from different places. That’s why I loved purchasing tubes from the tube artists in the past. Some stores had an enormous amount of tube artists who also offered an assortment of tubes in every genre. But those days are long gone now. But luckily, I was able to purchase lots of tubes before all those stores closed and I can still use them today which makes me very happy.

But back to my tag extras. I might go ahead and start sharing my sets of tag extras again in my new (reopened) group. BUT, if I find that people are still breaking my rules when using my tag extras, well, I will have no alternative but to stop sharing them in the future.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs,

A couple of updates

Okay, so this morning I had problems with 2 databases for my 2 websites. I had to reinstall one and decided NOT to reinstall the other. The one I decided NOT to install was my TagExtras forum. Instead, I decided to reopen my tag extras online group to replace the tag extras forum. So, the group has been created and it’s now open for members to join. And I decided to open it so ALL members can share. You can find the link to the online group in my sidebar to the right.

Anyway, thanks for stopping by and hugs, Mod Girl.

Closed Tag Extras website

After thinking it over for awhile, I decided to close my TagExtras.com website. The reason being that I have an online group now with the same name and there isn’t much use of having both. Plus, running a forum uses up more bandwidth in my web hosting account and I also don’t feel like keeping that site updated all the time either.

Running a self hosted forum is much different than running an online group. Using an online group, all there is to do after setting it up is to send emails. That’s it. NO updates are needed and you can spend the rest of your day doing other things. What’s not to like about that? lol.

Anyway, I also removed my ClipartBee.com website too. I set up that site as a paid subscription area, but just like my JunkJournalPaper.com website, no one seemed too interested in joining it either. However, I decided to keep my JunkJournalPaper.com website because I do make handmade journals and thought I would share some of those previews of what I am working on and journals that I already made. And who knows, I might even make a few videos of creating journals too and add those to the site. You never know, right?

So, I think that about does it for today. Thanks for stopping by and hugs,
