Love,
Rosie - BACKDROP (BeBo calls them "skins" )
- I found the skin at Onesian's private page. He is from New Zealand where the spirit of ALOHA abounds, I hear. Mahalo, Allen. Love to you.
- SpecIaL NOTE: WHO ARE WE?
- This homepage isn't about me.
I was here to collect and display art.
I collected whiteboard art from both private and public homepages for a long time. My private profile dates back to January 2005. The whiteboard feature began in July of 2005.
Many of the whiteboard images that you see here date back to the very start of BeBo whiteboards which came at the relaunch; about 6 months after Bebo"s inception in January 2005.
BeBo is a unique social networking site. This idea of anonimity and serving ppl at an online network started right here first.
There is not only one way to utilize BeBo and I am happy to be here to demonstrate that to you. People are choosing to utilize this new internet networking format in many different and creative ways.
The opportunities for enrichment are as endless and varied as the opportunities for fun! - ADVICE FOR ARTISTS
- There's advice on how to get a screenshot using a MAC in my blog and further on in the blogs, you will find advice on how to get a screenshot using a PC.
- PUBLIC HOMEPAGE/PUBLIC WHITEBOARDS
- If you have a public page and we have a whiteboard of yours in our Gallery, please don't be surprised. Anything that you post at a public homepage is up for grabs, although I am a firm believer that courtesy goes a long way to smooth relations at BeBo. ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ♥ღ
Whenever we see that you have "protected" an album, we will ask for permission to take it, even though we could very well drag it to the desktop and upload in less than a minute. - AWARDS ~ Whiteboard Artists Recognized
- THE FIRST ANNUAL WHITEBOARD AWARDS WERE ANNOUNCED IN SEPTEMBER 2006.
Since then, we have had many winners in Gallery Challenges.
THE NAMES OF THE RECIPIENTS OF THESE AWARDS ARE IN THE BLOGS AND IN PHOTO ALBUMS. - "DO YOU WORK FOR BEBO?"
- Are you kidding me?
Of course not. BeBo is a business. We are a people. The Gallery has nothing to do with money or favors or personal gain.
We appreciate the support from BeBo, though, and we do not take that for granted.
Thank you Lupita & Jim! - FAKES
- People have tried to pass off other people"s inspired art as their own for as long as there has been art.
It"s no different at BeBo.
Want to post something that is not yours? Tempted to claim that a whiteboard you have posted is your original work when it is not yours at all?
Just don"t do it here. Just don"t.
We play by the rules in here. Believe it or not, we get a great deal of pleasure using the BeBo whiteboard as it was intended to be used.

This Place called Bebo. Parting Thoughts
Jello.
<[]>
_/\_
I'm sittin' in for Rosie Posie this afternoon.

<[]>
_/\_
So what about BeBo??
1. AGE LIMITS ON ENABLING COMMENTS AT YOUR PAGE
Safety is one thing, common sense is another.
Why do they let ppl at Public Bebo set age limits re: people who can
comment or send messages to others who also have public pages?
That's discrimination. Age discrimination.
It doesn't make any good common sense. Some punk kid can come in to rough up the
Gallery and neither Rosie nor her crew have any way to comment? That's ridiculous.
We want to ensure that Bebo is safe and that Predators are kept out in every way we can.
But they are devious. They are dangerous partly cuz they are not likely to be honest
about any detail of their identity, including age.
So what's the deal!
2. ONLINE STATUS
Make it an optional feature.
Rosie told me this morning that she has asked to have this optional. She has said that
she will not come back until they change it.
If you don't understand the reason for this, I'd like to have your problems, cuz this feature
can complicate matters for people IRL.
3. CLUTTER
It's looking a lot like myspace around here. Change is good, but let's not go overboard.
I have a page at myspace but don't go anymore because it blinds me to visit my friends
there. Flashes, sparkles, oversized comment images, moving this and moving that.
Simple design and quiet beauty is the backdrop the Gallery has always aimed for. The
artists and their styles become more evident if there are minimum distractions.
Bebo won a prestigious award last year. There was a huge campaign at bebo. We were
all asked at sign in to vote for bebo and we did. We rallied and we won for Michael. He
asked for suggestions for a speech that would be limited to 6 words. I suggested "We
dared to be different" Many terrific and creative suggestions flooded in. Michael's
acceptance speech at the Webbys was, "In Your face, myspace." Oh dear.
When you are confident that you have the best of anything, you needn't rub it in.
I think most of us are much bigger than that.
myspace is much larger in number of accounts, but it is not much better. We all know
that. I'd like to think we are a step above in type and style of content and in the use of
different methods of networking here.
So, let's stop the imitations and continue to carve out a unique place that we can all be
proud of.
What do you think? Comment here or comment "Backstage" and let your opinions count.
Bill
and
Rosie

Farewell Rhiannon
Farewell to a beautiful, spirited artist from Dublin.
She lost her battle with cancer at the tender age of 18.
Rhiannon wrote about wisdom learned (in her profile intro) and she shares some of her experiences (see her blog) with us at her profile page.
For those who knew her here at the G, please visit her page at:
http://www.bebo.com/Profile.jsp?Memb...
---------
Oisin Vink, her good friend, gave me this link along with a "how to" for viewing Rhiannon's poetry.
(www.poetrypoem.com/starrydragonbabe)
"The site works like this: to find her poems click "Poetry" on the left, and then the white bar appears at the top for the list of poems. The bar drops down and you can just pick a title."
A warm thank you to Ceili and to Oisin for helping us to honor Rhiannon in this way here at the Gallery.
With love,
Rosie

ANIMATE?! New, helpful feature in the whiteboard module
✰ ✰ ✰
Animate White Boards -
This feature is worth checking out.
Go to any white board drawing and click on it.
There is an option to animate it.
It's fun....and it's useful.
You will be able to tell right away if wbs have been drawn or it they are uploaded or bebot-ed!
This is a note I received from Chaney Girl:
"I have seen where many people are having trouble with getting whiteboards to animate.
If people download Firefox they will find it works like a charm. Firefox is faster than internet explorer and works much better for the animation."

Jason X
Hi Rosie, thanks for commenting! Like you, I don't get on here much at all (as you can see from the 20 week reply deficit)! Just too busy working now and not any time for drawing anymore. When I was off work ill, I didn't have much else to do as I couldn't go anywhere, so I thought I'd keep myself amused and try to cheer people up by doing drawings for them. I do miss doing the drawings and the people I used to chat with, but I guess looking after my family comes 1st. Nice to hear from you, Take care, Jason. x

Disco Bitch
My god, you're right. I've no idea why I didn't reply - I must have got distracted and forgot. Probably by alcohol or breasts (or both).
I'm neither well nor reasonably happy.
I'll reply on FB presently!
