Yes, I'm not sure what to do about that -- I don't want to annoy people with double posts.

Whenever I post on the front page I've given a lot of thought to my choice for the day -- I have a list of criteria I go through and I often change my choice depending on what else is being posted nearby, etc. It's quite a process!

@Secret

Okay, thank you for that clarification. Will do. 🙂

And thanks again for the coffee earlier.


Because unfortunately the Front Page doesn't have a history, it's limited. Then everything is gone.

This way all gifs are kept somewhere for future consultation 🙂

Maybe you can post the daily gifs here after a few hours of the Front Page, to avoid double posting. Or at the end of the day. Whichever suits you!

I'm very glad! That's how they make me feel too.

DXP can be a fun place with all of the wackiness and clever trolling, but I know that some people here are going through truly painful things. Having at least some break from pain, by looking at something beautiful, inspiring, etc. is good. 🙂

@Ajna I sometimes get a sense of that from the kinds of questions and answers people write, even if they aren't sharing something personal. I don't have the advantage of seeing eyes, body language and hearing inflection in voices that would alert me much more quickly, of course, so it's sometimes a bit tougher to pick it out.

I don't tend to post about difficult things I'm going through on the site, in part for the reason you mentioned. So, maybe I'm a bit more aware of the people who might be like me and trying to find some relief from pain at times?

Yes

Because now you understand

where they/we are coming from.



Hugs*

And I'm sure your gifs help

with (your) pain too and not

JUST everyone else. Maybe

hard to sense my struggles

but my pictures and sketches

too are like therapy for me.



Maybe they can encourage

healing in others too.

Hugs back. 🙂

I'm glad that you post here, and that it helps you. Your posts help me too, and others. That's a good example of how this can be. 🙂

Also, I know that on online forums, only a certain % post much, if ever, so for everyone we see here, there are many we don't often, or ever, see. So, one might not get many replies or likes or whatever with some posts, but that doesn't mean that it went totally unnoticed or not valued.

Kept reading thread title as CopperDove's Gifts -

be all like yesh, yesh they are a gift *nods vigorously*


🙂

Here's one that I posted in the past, and this home could be off grid, maybe. 🙂 I was just about to post this in it's own comment box but with your comment coming in, it seemed fitting to include it in my reply to you.

Love this thread, sweet of you OP! :-)

CopperDove, your gifs are always relaxing to watch 🙂 Thanks for sharing, how do you make them, where do you find them? : D
I'm very happy that you think so. 🙂

I do searches online daily for them, and when I find things that meet certain criteria I've come up with, I bookmark them for future use, if they don't seem right to post that day. But, ideally I post what I find the same day I find it. The one I posted first in this thread was going to be for Valentine's Day 2017, for example, but then it seemed right to post it as part of a thank you to @Secret

So, I don't make them, but it would be wonderful if I could. 🙂

Thank you. 🙂 I think that your warmth and kindness is reflected in your posts too.

Yes, it's very nice for me, too, to look back at the gifs I've posted so I'm glad that archiving them in this thread will help. Thanks again to @Secret for the idea and creation of this thread.
