on other threads like the "Cakes that went unnoticed" thread, some just put the link to the individual pic on the thread by cutting and pasting the link, maybe that would be easier for Lu to do? I am just WAY too excited to see the pics!
For those of you that have doubts, I can't get this loaded. My daughter has even tried. She has emailed them to another CC'r and hopefully she will be able to get them sent. I have never lied on CC and I don't plan to start now. I said at the beginning I didn't know how to do this in a thread from a camera etc. Some people told me what to do with it and I couldn't get it done. So, Jewelykaye offered to have them emailed to her and she will get them sent.
I too, hoped this wouldn't turn crappy!
Lu
If Jewelykaye has any problems let me know Lu and I'd more than happy to help out! 
Thanks luvsfreebies72! That was driving me crazy. As for typing w/no typos, I just don't bother trying anymore
The older I get, the more I forget 
sam here, girl, same here. sucks, don't it?
I still have problems uploading a pic to a thread, even when I go to the shrinkpicture website, it takes a couple times before I can get cc to accept it. Be patient fellow cakers.....
As far as AOC goes, I absolutely love that show, they are so talented and funny. My 5yr old even quotes "make it bigger, make it badder, make it awesome!"
Thats why they can charge what they do, they are famous, they are funny and there's a demand, its doesnt have to be about whether their cake is better than someone else's.
I can't think of a more anticipated pictures since the Brangelina baby!
Dude, I'm anticipating these pics FAR more than any celeb baby pic! 
Brangelina who?

ok, that's where I gotta beg to differ. for the price they are charging, their cake better be bigger, badder and more awesome than anyone else out there. And it had better be the most delicious thing I ever put in my mouth, too.
Im still trying to open the attachements I got this message from windows *gaah*
"Windows Live Hotmail has blocked some attachments in this message because they appear to be unsafe. "
Im forwarding them to a server to see if I can download them there

I can get it to the thread if you want to email them to me, I cant forward Lu's email. windows live has it totally blocked out.

Yup for that kind of $$ it had better taste good!
One of my clients knew the guy who got the fist of rock cake that was on one episode, and she said that it tasted good. Just to put that in. I'm sorry if the $2000 cake didn't taste good, that must have been really disappointing.
I think that when someone pays that much for a cake, it's likely that it could not possibly live up to the expectations of it.
I agree that the cake should taste really yummy and fresh and far more than your average chocolate cake or whatever, but the best thing I've ever tasted? Probably not. I think psychologically we start to think it's going to be something MORE than cake, and it's just not going to be. On the other hand, if we've paid $200 for it, we believe it's the best cake we've ever tasted.
WOW this thread is still on ,with no picture,hhmmm. I think i might find something else to do and check back in a few days.Keep remembering wasting my time on the "bride cancelled cheque on wedding thread"

That's what I was thinking. I don't know if it's realistic to expect it live up to the hype. They do amazing things but it is still just cake. And going to someone in that kind of demand, you've got to know they didn't make it this morning and it's not the most important thing on their calendar - even for $2K.
I get that if the cake is super elaborate and intricate in design, then the taste falls by the wayside, because you are paying for looks. But if the cake is a simple design with nothing much to distract from the flavor...for $2000.....that cake better be good, maybe not the best I've ever tasted, but pretty damned good, because I'm paying for taste.
She has sent the photos to me but I cannot view them. They are showing up as potentially unsafe. I'm trying to forward them to a different email address.
im dying to see the pic of this! to be honest i think the cakes are crazy overprice - the minium order price is ridiculous if you think about say a single tier birthday cake.
I don't know why it's suddenly a crime to make a great living in this country. If we want to price our goods low--go ahead but don't knock wonderful success for crying out loud.
I love and applaud Duff's great success and for helping put designer cakes more on the map.
Well said... Don't be hater be a congratulater 
<Is that a word?LOL
Waiting for the pic.......
What event was the cake for?? Do we know the design?
I just received your son's email lu:
Here are the other 3 pics (If you've already attached them I apologize for the duplicate pics).
Edited to add:
Does anyone want me to enlarge these or are they ok? I just sent them as the same size as I received them but I can enlarge them if needed. Lu don't let a couple of peoples skepticism get you down.
Ummm, okay I'm speechless thanks for the pics Lu! you go Duff for getting $2k for that. I know I wouldn't be able to command that price
Yay! Lu's son! I'm so glad you were able to help her out.
Is there some significance to this house? What is in the window?
Lu...thanks for sharing the pics with us.
Ok...I can see the house and trees...but what are the things flying around?? Fairies?? What is the theme suppose to be?
Wow... that's what a $2000 cake looks like...I'd like to know what they charge for some of the cakes they air on their tv shows.
