OK, here’s the deal. There's still time to join in and become part of OS history.
Everyone loves a First Edition, and you can be part of one. The first ever Official Open Salon Avatar Collage Project is off and running – and we’re accepting up to 400 avatars (profile images) for the 23” x 23” poster, as well as t-shirts and mugs to be unveiled in December.
All you have to do is post a decent resolution image of your avatar (no copyright items, though) on your blog and tag it ‘OS Collage’ so we can find it. We’ll then download the image and post a comment on your blog post letting you know that you’re in the mix. If you don't receive an acknowledging comment from DogWoman, we don't have your avatar. Send us a message if you're confused. For more info, go to Skeptic Turtle’s post for OS Avatar Collage Version 2.0
The current count is up to 109 after just two days.
Some lively discussion took place yesterday with infamous curmudgeon BBE weighing in on the project. With the usual panache that we’ve come to expect, BBE’s acerbic diatribe tried to cast a pall over the party. Are we going to let Eeyore rain on our parade? Thrown down the gauntlet, BBE has (sorry, couldn’t help the Yoda speak). This requires a call to action! There are some 6,000 of us out there, and the BBEs of the blogosphere won’t be able to keep a mere 400 of us down. Stand up and be counted.
The Few. The Proud. The OS Avatar Collagers.

P.S. If you like this, rate it so we can bring the project back to the front page!

I'm enjoying seeing pictures of everyone, especially those who haven't posted pictures of themselves before. I love a face with a name.
Oh, wait, I say that about my children, too. "Yeah, lookit (indicating precious cute photograph) - you Used to be cute!"
Wait!..........OK, now I get it!
Bump and rate and much love and affection.
Baby Weasel photo is the kind of photo that could break a million hearts........
Re: Baby Weasel: WANT!!!
Omigosh, she is just the cutest thing EVER. I gotta download her to my Just Too Cute photo file. Do I have Mom's permission?
BBE--You can't be Stella, your writing is nothing like hers. And if you were Lonnie I doubt he'd be saying you're a chick--unless he's really into the red herring thing. Nope, if you're a chick, it's got to be someone whose writing style is closer to yours. Then again, maybe you're just BBE, curmudgeonly guy extraordinaire. :)
Maybe if Freaky allows any0ne new who signs up the chance to touch his foothole?
Love this! Thanks, Dogwoman! And Weasel was such a cute puppy!!
rated, love Weasel! Wigglepuppy says woof and sends a tail wag....
Not baited.
But there are scores of other people who need to be harassed into participating. Check your friends' blogs and see who hasn't yet posted a picture with the 'os collage' tag. Tell them they need to upload now! Use guilt, pleas, bribes, and non-violent threats. Whatever works.
