10:35:34 AM	catlynn	Godetia. I can't scroll back far enough to see your post here but did see it in groupsio so that's why I updated wishlist and posted here
10:36:24 AM	catlynn	Everyone that can't vote using link can try logging in and then search for the set. Might work then
10:37:39 AM	catlynn	At least it's a start
10:38:50 AM	Godetia33	catlynn, I meant I was :) I was able to do it, things are getting back. The request may need to be posted a few times during the day.
10:39:41 AM	Godetia33	catlynn, are you on a pc or phone when you are logged in?
10:40:59 AM	jofrog2000	I'm going in circles here. Obviously can sign into chat-hooray! I am signed into my VIP membership. But, that page says I'm NOT signed into chat, and when I follow directions, I just end up on this page. I can search, go through all those pages, but not be signed into the home page. Anyone else having this problem?
10:41:48 AM	Godetia33	I can only login to vote with my ipad.
10:53:10 AM	jofrog2000	At least chat is back. Missed it.
11:06:46 AM	catlynn	I am on pc and phone no problems
11:08:31 AM	catlynn	Windows 10. Using edge on pc and chrome on phone if that helps

02:13:10 AM	catlynn	Daily freebie is not showing on my computer, must have just been a test since it says daily freebie coming back soon
02:15:30 AM	catlynn	= = = = = Tuesday = = = = =
02:15:37 AM	catlynn	Good Morning everyone
02:16:00 AM	catlynn	Please vote for the next 1 on the sick daily wishlist Sun-5 https://www.designsbysick.com/votedesigns/KDo_Sunshine
02:16:08 AM	catlynn	thanks in advance for your votes
02:16:50 AM	catlynn	I think we should keep voting for the same design til it stays up for more then a few hrs so everyone can get it
04:06:52 AM	veronicasmith	Today's free design can be found here https://www.designsbysick.com/votingresults.php
04:46:00 AM	Nadja7777	Good Morning everyone![br]Please vote for the https://www.designsbysick.com/votedesigns/jnhorses
07:56:07 AM	veronicasmith	The wish for tomorrow from the jnhorses set is = Design name: rw75x7
08:06:07 AM	Godetia33	V N D at Always J Designs
08:07:50 AM	Godetia33	Christmas H in email from Stitchbox Creations
08:11:03 AM	catlynn	veronicasmith when I looked there earlier, the free design was not showing
08:13:39 AM	catlynn	I am not going to update the wishlist since there are lots that can't vote and possibly are not seeing the freebie either
08:15:59 AM	Godetia33	The Daily Free Design is found by using the Free Designs dropdown menu.
08:24:22 AM	veronicasmith	The daily free design won with 8 votes. The total number of votes was 39 which means that 13 people were able to vote. (sadly I was not one of them) but I think that it is still important to keep the wishlist going as everyone is now able to download the winner.
08:26:50 AM	Godetia33	I agree with veronicasmith. The Wishlist is short at this time so it wouldn't be too difficult to do a repeat if necessary.
08:27:29 AM	Godetia33	Repeating after we move through the list, not the next day.
08:30:34 AM	Shastasmom	Good morning everyone
08:30:39 AM	Shastasmom	Merry Christmas 2025 https://ohmycrafty.com/

08:32:08 AM	veronicasmith	"What's Winning So Far Today" shows the jnhorses design with 5 votes but the Sun-5 has 4 votes. I hope that all of you who CAN vote WILL vote for = rw75x7
08:33:08 AM	Godetia33	https://www.designsbysick.com/votingresultstoday.php
08:37:50 AM	catlynn	FINE since it seems to be soooo important to some I will update the wishlist
08:39:39 AM	summaries	Who is Sandy website ? that catlynn mentioned
08:40:19 AM	Godetia33	We don't know how long it's going to take to get the login/voting issue resolved. It wont be difficult to re do the wishes later.
08:41:02 AM	veronicasmith	https://justsewsandy.com/
08:41:26 AM	summaries	Thanks, I have never been to sandys website
08:41:50 AM	catlynn	I didn't say it wouldn't be difficult to redo the wishlist, I just want to give everyone a chance now to see what's going on, some ppl have a hard time with computers so its difficult for them to post at the best of times
08:42:54 AM	catlynn	Just sew Sandy doesn't have a lot of designs and they are not cheap. $5 for one design which is why she isn't making any money and now closing the website
08:43:04 AM	Godetia33	Imagine my confusion when I logged in with my iPad at night and then couldn't the next morning on my laptop.
08:43:07 AM	veronicasmith	Sandy was a member here a long time ago, when we had the other way of chatting.
08:43:40 AM	catlynn	when I was on her website yesterday it was all full price, now I see she has a sale going on
08:45:04 AM	catlynn	Godetia33 I agree, and Mamataglia got a new computer not long ago and was posting she couldn't find anything or post anything. I hope she comes back, she was on here a few days ago but haven't heard anything since

05:48:16 PM	Godetia33	sick, ty, yes that works but I need to use back arrow to get here because the Go To Chat link doesn't work. Using Firefox.
05:51:13 PM	Godetia33	I'm able to open a second tab, open Chat, click Back to home page and use that for viewing the website and voting and still have a tab with Chat open.
05:51:21 PM	sick	wanna try it now? There's a intermediate page warning of the propble.
05:52:05 PM	sick	confirmed. the login state is shared between tabs [br]in firefox.
05:54:46 PM	Godetia33	still cant get to Chat from home page. I can have 1 tab for Chat & 1 for website.

01:02:18 AM	summaries	OOO it is working now ... says 01:02:03
01:02:28 AM	sick	L(
01:02:57 AM	summaries	Sick the background and the color of fonts is strange, if you select white background the letter font is white
01:03:39 AM	summaries	If I select gray/putty background there is a color choice selection but no white for letters
01:04:12 AM	summaries	if I select black background the color of font is white. and can read it
01:04:22 AM	sick	hmm mine is gray
01:05:00 AM	summaries	when I select the gray, I once tried changing the color of font FROM white to another and can not get it back to white
01:05:24 AM	summaries	So I am using black, but would prefer gray
01:12:22 AM	sick	reload and hit the ... dots in top corner. I just tried something
01:13:12 AM	summaries	well the white background is typing black for me, but other posts look white on white
01:13:39 AM	summaries	but after I type the message on white, my fon[br]t appears white
01:14:29 AM	sick	there's 2 colors in the ... menu, try them
01:14:44 AM	summaries	well yes, way past that part, LOL
01:15:20 AM	sick	dunno then. goung to bed good night

05:54:28 PM	veronicasmith	I think your only hope is to send Shawn a message in the facebook group then, Good luck

06:19:27 PM	veronicasmith	@drowe3 If you are having problems getting your old points back I think the best advice I can give is to private message Shawn with all the details you can think of at the facebook group page https://www.facebook.com/groups/designsbysick/members

10:49:08 AM	veronicasmith	Shawn on Facebook asks should he wipe out all the "old" points gained and start from scratch as he is of the impression that "almost all" of the old points did not transfer. PLEASE let him know if you do now have access to your old points - https://www.facebook.com/DesignsBySiCK/posts/1284824463685311?ref=embed_post
11:08:26 AM	veronicasmith	GOOD NEWS for any of us that have access to our old points - Shawn has set our previous points purchases to ZERO thus giving us some free points to "spend" before what seems to be an inevitable re-set. He really is trying VERY hard to make us happy sickies again :)
12:45:51 PM	smartina	so, does this mean, we should hurry to spend the points? I had mine all the time.
01:34:38 PM	veronicasmith	You should certainly start making a list of sets that you would like along with their current cost in points - I have made an Excel spread sheet of all the sets and marked off sets that I already have (click Designs and select All Designs and you will find "List All Sets" at the very bottom. )
02:05:54 PM	snugs bear	Anyone of the plus people out there

05:56:38 PM	JayPadbol	Hello! I don't use Facebook, so I don't know what was said in response to "thinking of resetting the chat system to zero keeping Nov points." My opinion is that Shawn has already done a lot of work to get the site back up and running
05:57:47 PM	JayPadbol	So why just don't do any more work to reset it or anything else? Just let it go. The points lost in 2025 are lost, and that's it. Everyone carries on with their remaining collected points and life still goes on. Thanks for reading.
06:00:11 PM	JayPadbol	I don't understand why resetting the points is inevitable, when the site works perfectly well as it is... Why do more work when almost everything is working now?
06:05:42 PM	SueB	Hello
