I think Boston might be a little jealous of your gift LG. Nicely done.
Great! Funny! I miss your entries. I missed a few months in here I think.

I've missed a couple of months here of late. It's been a real boom time at work. I shouldn't complain...but it plays hell on the ol' personal life.
And another thing...how does one unattach a attachment? Just ignore this double post. It's early here...
Hey, we don't mind another look at that old dog. Boston's not a bad sight, either!
(Hey, I was gonna do the elephant! )
Hey! It worked. Thanks!
Holy Geeze Lord Ganthor!!! I spit out my coffee and laughed so hard when I saw that render!!!
It makes you really wonder "How does Santa do it?"
A little inspirational viewing...
I so loved that commerical when my kids were small!!

Santa's Life Crisis
Runnie Elf looks at Santa and asks "How you going to get this down a chimney Santa?"
Santa smiles saying "Don't need to worry about that. This is Santa's gift to himself. I'm taking a vacation this year and snow will not be involved. Might even shave the beard!"
Meanwhile the car salesman just smacks his lips and gets ready for another sucker.
Just letting you all know I tryed to download the * Playground - http://www.sharecg.com/v/56944/browse/11/Poser/Route-66-part-5-The-movies! and the file is broken.
Try it again...it worked for me, just now.
Funny, that's a car salesman? Or a lawyer?
Dana
Honestly, I think that's the first time I've actually seen somebody use the Devilman figure in any render, at all....
I just found him a few weeks ago and thought he was kind of awesome. Even used him in my avatar for the moment.
Yes it worked for me this time around not sure what happened last nite!!!

Every once in a while ShareCG's servers get 'indigestion'...it must be from eating the Daz server gerbils...
OMG that is where all the gerbils go to once they are done messing with Daz Store, now see you learn something new everyday!!!
If anybody's short of Christmas related freebies there're a number of them listed at the Poser and Daz Studio Free Resources Wiki - https://poserdazfreebies.miraheze.org/wiki/Christmas_Resources - so nobody has any excuse about not being able to find enough items !
And I have an idea for a picture on this months theme...
I am looking forward to seeing that image 3dcheapskate

The Master from the fireplace TARDIS: "...the question you should really be asking is..."
[pause]
The Doctor (from off-camera): "What chimney?"
