Hi to all-
I have been lurking in this sight for about a month and finally posted my first post in the last week. I am amazed at the talent on this site!! (Duckychickenlady- your cakes are awesome!! -hats off from another Cheryl!!). This is a relatively new hobby for me, only about ten months, after a friend gave me the first class as a birthday gift last year. Boy did I get hooked fast!! icon_lol.gif I work at a large school for special needs kids and between the school and my family (I have three teenagers), I am very cake busy!! icon_biggrin.gif
Keep up ther great works of art!!
Cheryl

Ok- this is going to be a dumb question- How do you go about downloading pictures to this site? I have pictures saved to disc from my digital camera- can I download from those?
