ThankYouPatriot.com is now live!
Chili posted this to the bottom of the "Last Call for Links" thread awhile ago:


It's up, it's live, it's no longer Memorex.

There are some photos I haven't gotten to yet from yesterday because I was uploading the site to the domain... so anyone who does not see their photo, I will get to it tonight. I've got to get some sleep now, though, LOL - I stayed up all night finishing it.

If you see any broken links, let me know (if you can, though, check to make sure it's not just a burp by refreshing or right-clicking on the graphic and choosing "show picture" - then it is a definite broken link).

*passing out*

PS - doh, forgot to say, the new link is:

8. uh oh
Edited on Tue Jan-18-05 12:37 PM by Faye
Chili's gonna hate me but, the description next to David Cobb is wrong :( Cobb/Bardnarik officially nor legally had anything to do with the citizens case to contest the election. They only requested recounts and a had a few lawsuits involving the recounts.

Cliff Arnebeck/Susan Truitt/Bob Fitrakis are the ones that filed the contest. Actualy, those 3 should have their own Hall of Fame section too! They rule! - oh, i see Fitrakis and Arnebeck are on there.

Is there room for anymore? Could you have one for Susan Truitt, John Bonifaz, Rev. Bill Moss?

uh oh again. i see grammatical errors :( lol i'm sorry i always do this shit!!! i would like to help you if i can, i see typos and stuff.

Do happen to know why Kendrick Meek didn't vote for the challenge? He was the Florida chair of the Kerry campaign and ran unopposed for reelection.

As I read the vote list, Mr. Meek abstained. He may have been at the funeral but I was hoping that you knew the reason for sure.

46. I'm living breathing proof that sleep deprivation...
...causes brain dysfunction.

:p

I didn't even provide a way to send in photos - DOH!

Fixed it!

Thanks Faye, and all of you, for your input! Working on it so closely, I easily miss the forest for the trees, and sometimes the branches and leaves too, LOL.

If a video of Sen. Boxer giving it to Rice today becomes available, I want to add that too... perfect timing!

We can add new events every time someone stands up and speaks out - it'll be like a constant pat-on-the-back from the public. If these last couple of months has taught us anything, it's that our reps in Congress DO listen if we speak up... and when we don't, they either do what they want, or don't do anything. After all, that's why they're there, they're supposed to be working for us. And some of them actually WORK.

Thanks to you all!

*going to bed!*

53. wow, wow, wow. Thanks! Did notice one link problem, it's 12:30
PM ohio time here (Wed the 19th) -- (meaning you might fix it before you read this).

On the gallery page there is one red X image. If you click on it, it brings up the homepage in the separate/pop-up window. I have a screen shot if you need to see it, but can't send out e-mail at work. Don't really want to post it here, but I can if you need. Not a biggie -- web/content design is NEVER finished.... (I've got two sites that I am so behind on updating and they are both less than 12 months old....). My Hat (if I wore one) goes off to you for how quickly you put together this Very professional, Very informative site! Kudos to all who helped!

56. Added to my links page...
Added this site to my political links page. It is not much but it is all I can do. My page has been crawled by google, so it will be another link pointing to your site. I also added the randi rhodes forum along side the link to her already existing radio show link. Also added the 'break for news' site.
My links pages have over 1425 links to political, news and government sites.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for your effort to hightlight the work of people who are standing up to this administration and are trying to make a difference...

86. DEAR EVERYONE!!! READ THIS POST!!! PLEASE!!
Skinner has posted this thread and a link to thankyoupatriot on the homepage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

I wanted to thank Chili in a very noticeable way so sorry for the shouting. Chili has been awesome and more even. I don't know who to describe the feelings I have for her and her work thats shes done. I cry when I think on how many days she probably shorted herself of nearly any sleep, of how she volunteered up so quickly, of how quickly she bought the domain. I'm choked up as I write this, Chili is way too humble IMHO and she'll probably just laugh this off with an "aw shucks", but Chili YOU ARE A PATRIOT dammit! I can think of no more honorable thing to call you.

I also personally want to very much thank Ommmmm, Helderheid, Peace Patriot, FLDem5, Mordarlar, MeganMonkey, Greenmutha, and a whole slew of you all that helped keep this kicked and complimented!!! You all rock very much indeed!

A few quick things I figured out about this and all the other threads we started. Over a 120 different posters (not posts) gave us positive feedback and encouragement to do this.

Out of the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of posts on all the threads not a single negative comment!! Which is in itself a small miracle here at DU!! I at least expected someone to post a comment about how tired they are of seeing these damn thankyoupatriot threads all the time on the front page of Election Results '04.

Finally for all of you that have not sent in a pic, please try and do so... send here nightedcolor@yahoo.com
Please spread the word to anyone you know who might be into this!! We need all the help we can get!!

Oh and for posterity sake heres the list of threads started in ER&D '04 for this in chronological order.

90. *seriously blushing*
WE the people did it - we demanded that we be heard, and we were - it's an incredible moment in history that only us, at the moment, recognize. It was an honor to do it, and I'm soooo glad you all decided on a design within a few hours (LOLOLOL!) You all made it so easy to do!

THANK YOU ALL FOR THAT!

It was my pleasure.

And thank you FrictionlessO, you have been phenomenal in giving me updates... BIG THANK YOU for that! And thank you also to Dano, who was very helpful, and who I may still have to lasso if high volume gets too much!

I just hope that our elected officials take notice... that we SUPPORT those who listen to us, and who speak for us... that it's a give-and-take relationship that must flow reciprocally... or else they're not doing their jobs.

Okay. Going to take a nap. :p

THANK YOU all for your support, I'm really appreciative of all of you!

:hi:

111. Thank you so very very very much Midlodem!
Make sure you convey how badly we need and want pics this site will never go anywhere with out at least another hundred pics, we need that critical mass before we begin blasting media and notifying the officials on the site.

Any helpful hints and ideas from people experienced in PR would be most welcome as well!!

Thanks so much, again!!
