Dear Mini Friend,

You signed up to be informed when I add minis to my printables page.
I've just added 5 new items:

1. Modern "digital" Camouflage
2. A wonderful 1" Scale Dollhouse donated by Kathryn McCullough
3. A stove (all scales)
4. A DVR/Satellite/Cable Box (1", ½" and PlayScales)
5. And a Pirate Treasure Map (1", ½" and PlayScales)

I've still have a backlog of several great donated printable minis
that I haven't managed to get them online yet. Some more will be
coming in a few months.

I've selected winners in my annual mistake finding contest. The
contest took a few years off so this year I'm awarding multiple
winners. Thanks to everyone who helped fix my site. I'm sorry I can't
give you all a prize. As always, I'm awarding one prize based on a
random draw from all the entries. That winner is Andrea Renee. I'm
always pleased when the draw selects someone with many entries.
That's certainly the case with Andrea.

Julie Bishop gets a prize for finding my biggest blunder. I had an
incorrect link on dozens of pages that she pointed out. It was
actually an error in a single file, but since that file showed up on
most of the printables it was everywhere!

I'm also awarding a prize to Thor Sheil. Thor wins for helping me
with the complicated task of getting all the ratios right in the
scale calculator.

Finally this year I'm awarding a prize for the other way you can help
with this site. Many people have sent in some great donations over
the years. But I don't think I've ever been as pleased as I was with
Elizabeth Vose's cereal boxes. I think a lot of people don't
understand the effort required to keep copyrighted images out of this
sort of item. Liz's boxes look like they could have come straight
from the store. Thanks Liz! And by the way, I still have a few un-
posted donations from Liz waiting in the wings.

The prizes this year are 1:12 scale kits donated by The Craft Pack
Company. Please check out the wide variety of dollhouse miniature DIY
projects on their site: http://www.thecraftpackcompany.co.uk/


I greatly appreciate the support of people who bookmark my store page
and use it to enter Amazon, Target, Dell, Toys R Us, All Posters.com
and the other online stores whenever they're going to shop at those
sites anyway. I get a small referral fee when you do this, and you
pay the same price you would have by going to the store directly. You
keep my site alive. Some of these sites (Amazon for example) have
more than one store depending on your country. I only have
affiliation with the US sites. The page to bookmark is:

I know this has been the source of confusion for sometime, but I'm
not from the UK. For some reason when I signed up for this list, I
got marked as being from the "UK & Ireland." I've never figured out
how to get it changed. I'm actually from Iowa in the United States.
If anyone knows how to correct this up, please let me know!

Anyone have any minis to donate for the site? Please remember that I
can't use anything that is copyrighted. Please send your donated
images in JPG, PNG, or GIF format if possible.

Please remember that if your browser isn't set up to automatically
get the newest version of the page, you may need to refresh/reload
the page to see the changes.

Happy Hobbies,
Jim
