Your stories are so immersive and depict so well our world, sometimes full of hope, sometimes so sad, with all good and poor behaviour that humankind can share toward others... you bare our sensibility and feelings for making us going deep down in our heart, and making us thinking about our acts, our feelings, and what we could and would share with others, we can hurt others, sometimes we are concious to doing so, sometimes not... and we can love too, and hurts the others by the same way, especially when we love by a passionate way... this makes us living so deep, so hard, and tears us appart, but there is one thing that makes us going through, and lead to believe in better days: the hope for true Love... I'm gonna stop my feedback here, tears are falling down, as sometimes it's too hard to speak more... Thanks, many thanks dezdimona.

... you have not specified what sort of alphabet, banning Pronam for no being more precise.

Unless you find a more epic one... You are banned Thor.

So, I made some research on my surname's Coat of Arms. Origins: The surname of ***** was a nickname for a pleasant or agreeable person and finds its origins in Germany in a part of central Europe knowned as Silesia in the past. The name came from humble beginnings and they gained a significant reputation for contribution to the emerging mediaeval society. Well, it smell fine, but... I don't know if the family's branch line had modified that one in the past, as they lived in Austro-Hungarian empire, and after finding their origins in Germany, when autonomous states became centralized to a unified nation, some had lived in Austria, some in Hungaria and had changed the surname for nationality reasons, others in Switzerland and in France, others branch lines are also in Albania, Denmark, England and U.S... this is why we must make deeper research in our genealogy branch. And the spelling variations include: ****, *****, ******, ***** and many others. Man see how much difficult it could be to find an adequate Coat of Arms most often times. Symbols: Ecu in Argent (white) and Gueules (red) in Fasce: -White: Peace and sincerity. Red: warrior or martyr, military strength and magnanimity. Acorn in Chef (high middle part) and Pointe (low middle part): -Antiquity and strength. Have fun and luck in your search everybody... :happy: [Edit] post updated, added some comments.

Ban Ancient Aeon for his kindliness.

Ready for the battle! Ha,ha... good! It's a very funny one, we could remind the hero in the famous film 300', here's a link to a video on YouTube with Era's song "Looking for Something"... It was a pleasure to help you for Jeanette's compo, all of this reminds me when I was graphic designer and artistic manager in an advertising agency, but it's the past yet... Sorry for the result in editing, it's so sad for your .psd file, the uses of "bend" tool would be helpful for correcting...

Heartwarming.

Ban Harabec Weathers because I'm not sleeping. [Edit] I'm trying to make deeper Heraldic research on the web... :biggrin:

I'm baaaaaaack again!

Ban Pronam because I've had a finger cramp.

Banning Monolithic0117, Pronam, and floggingmolly22 because they have fast breeder reactors and so replying faster then me. :blink:

Your poems are like a symphony words are playing together they blow away near secret places where beauty and love reigns and we are on your knees admiring this marvelous scene in hope of never ending times... Thank you, sweet great Lady :thumbsup:

Bannining *hic* Pronam bebecause I'm thirsty (Lol)

I must tell you that you are a great artist, your pictures include so many poestry, and colors fit wery well together with your choises of subjects and backgrounds. I agree with you with the picture of Jeanette on Post Sep 10 2009, 10:35 PM, something looks strange with the background behind Jeanette's head, I personaly think that the top right side with the giant mushroom doesn't fit so well, for having a better harmony in your composition you should take the giant mushroom to fill up this background zone, or simply cut the darker top right loaf zone and put in a lighter one, in mushroom tinge for example, in result Jeanette subject should be better interlinked, nevertheless it's a great work! Thanks for sharing your art :thumbsup:

Fantasy.

Ban Pronam for reading the topic without debating (Lol) :biggrin:

:woot: I would go back in feodal times, being a fearless Knight wearing my heavy armor for helping the widow and the orphan, then meet Joan Of Arc to be her champion, fall in love with her, and finaly save my Love from the burning flames - Ouch! By the Nonsensical piece of rubbish, that really *hurts*! Then return in nowadays to regain consciousness in front of my pc, asking me what I'm waiting for, then would go back in feodal times... :biggrin:

Hats down, respect and honour for all those making the ultime sacrifice for a worthy cause, the hope of freedom for other people... :closedeyes:

Banning rob_b 'cos it's not my fault (hum, remains me something :whistling:)

Yes, of course, we know that in the past the colons were coming from all the world in America to cherish hope in a new world for a better life, with the intent to build a country established on moral values of rights and freedoms, and share it for the next growing generations, but that was not always the case, that's why people must be careful on those values for guiding the others. You know that America have a great world influence, that's why it is such a great symbol for all people believing on rights and freedoms... I have edited a little this paragraph so others readers will not being mistaken about my intentions: *Fortunately for other people the priorities are about "rights" and "freedoms"...* And this is true for others lands, but unhappily in some countries, people have not even the right of speaking about... It will be improper to say the opposite, we call that: "roots", traditions. The mores and the customs may differs by our cultural and historical circles of influences from a land to an other... U.S. is a young land in comparison of the others, historicaly meaning. Perhaps it is the reason why some people don't feel the same about the importance of having a strong culture, it's our owe to never forget the past for going ahead and moving on. But what I wanted to say before all is that lands and countries have various economical, political or social preocupations than others, and priorities are not the same in accordance with their wherewithal, energy resources, natural resources just for an example. That's why needs may differs from a land to an other. Just an example with Saudy-Arabia, what do you think about their future when in perhaps 30 years they would have no more petroleum resources to shore? I don't think their needs will be the same as today... But it's the real facts, and by many ways. Look at our politicians when their influence goes wrong or when they become unpopular. They debate on TV channels, are looking after poll results and if they fall down in poll then they yeld on their positions. Politicians are using medias day-to-day for not giving the chance to be knocked down by the opposition. An other example, the president of France, Mr Sarkosy, when we have had this year the OTAN summit meeting in Strasburg, (in my belt :biggrin: ), he wanted to be always near the president of America, Mr Obama, and be shooted near him by TV channels, just for the "prestige" and being more popular in world's citizen opinion... In the past medias were used to make propaganda and brought about wars, you don't forget this as it is still used in some lands on these days... when you use the medias you gain the power to affect all the underprivileged sections of the population. And medias affect us everyday, everywhere and that's why me must be watchful. It is just a question of common sense, and if we are talking about rights and freedoms, we must feel concerned by this. In an other way, as we are speaking about medias and their powers, let me tell you it was my job to make people dreaming on what they "must have" for being "happy", I was graphic designer and artistic manager in an advertising agency, try me, the advertising industry manipulate consumers via medias for encouraging people to buy more merchandises, it is intended only for one thing: gain more power and cash. And how many people are falling in the trap, buying merchandises just because they have seen them on the TV... Oh, of course we are living in a material world, and why not taking advantage of that and making the most of our time? Yes, but by a more reasonable way! You can't say that, drugs addictions are not the same problem as stereotyped needs. You cannot put all things together without making distinctions. It seems you haven't understood where the problems are, in that case, try to take an other look into the paragraph "Stereotyped needs" and then take an eye on the text about medias just here above... We, free citizen in a free land, have one chance: the freedom of speech. And when education teach us the capacity of understanding our world then we must share that knowledge only for one thing: trying to make a better world for our childrens. :yes:
