    Yep, people are getting a great deal with those Leroy pages! If you didn't get him, take a look as you get X amount free and with the 80%+ discounts, it's quite a haul.

     

    Pretty annoying that I bought him on Day 1 (hoping for the same sort of next-day banner as Dain 8) - I could have really picked up a lot more if I'd waited.

    They do have a 30 day better price deal, unless it says can't rebuy at a lower price. And of course it does say that (at least I think it does, it's the 20% off cart one it states that very clearly.)  So yeah, I'm in the same boat @melaniel    Some people are rebuying him (which makes sense if you had the banner to double what you could get, aka instead of $5 you'd get $10, etc.)   I think you can use it more than once though, test it.

    My facebook is https://www.facebook.com/pnscola if things go really wonky and anyone wants to message me. Also, you can see my doggies. There's going to be a new arrival on Wednesday, he couldn't make it today due to Michigan temperatures. He's being flown in. His Welsh name is Ci Pwff (Kay-Poof) and we will call him simply "Poof."  It means a puffy, fluffy type dog. We always try to come up with unusual names and I want to use him for pet therapy with kids and senior pet therapy. Poof is funny,  and just fits him. I can see me calling him Poo when I baby talk him and Poo Bear. That last one should give you a good idea what he is. Wanna guess? (He is NOT a Welsh breed. We just loved Pwff for a name.)

    I like the name   Ci Pwff    Puff Dog   what breed is he?

    Oh and BTW  Ci is pronounced Key, not Kay

    @Novica, Chow Chow?

    From the AKC website

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,887

    We listened to several pronounciations and it was really hard to tell :) People want to pronounce it like French (or whatever) and say Cee but it definitely wasn't that. 

  • barbultbarbult Posts: 24,244

    If anyone knows how to pronounce Welsh words, it would be Chohole.

    Your facebook link didn't work for me. It said:

    This page isn't available

    The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed.

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,887

    Hmmm, link is working for me. I just clicked on it.

    Good guess.  Nope.

    Baby Samoyed!

    My third one. LOVE these dogs.  He's 3 months old. The other ear will stand up shortly. They go up and down for awhile. The dad is an international champion and was brought over from Slovenia, both grandparents are international champions, and the mom's grandparents are both international champions. I wasn't looking for that, but these dogs suffer from heart and eye problems, elbow and hip dysplasia, etc  One of mine died of heart failure, the other cancer due to puppy mill breeding. We always do rescue dogs but couldn't find any local rescue groups and those we did,  would only do local adoptions. (Looked all the way to Texas, Arizona, Michigan, you name it.)  Since this will be my last dog, I decided to go with a reputable breeder who does not mass produce.

    Beautiful white dog!

  • I grew up with Chows they're very loyal and protective of their chosen person

    The Chow wouldn't have been good for pet therapy as they tend to be one-person dogs and will only sorta tolerate others unless they take a dislike to the others

  • xmasrosexmasrose Posts: 1,403

    What a cutie!

    For Facebook same as Barbult.

  • NovicaNovica Posts: 23,887

    Wonder why it works for me. I did note however, it had the http:// instead of https so try again and see if it works?

    Mty Indian Ringneck Parakeet attacks if I come near it while I'm talking on the phone to anyone! And most days when I change the bath water on top of it's cage. It makes me laugh but not when she gets a hold of me, her beak packs a pinch.

  • nonesuch00nonesuch00 Posts: 18,131

    I get not found for pnscola as a user name on FB here on my browser on my desktop where I've never logged into FB but also in the FB app on iOS iPhone. That must mean you've hidden the account in FB from search engines and such.

  • L'AdairL'Adair Posts: 9,479

    The pnscola facebook page opened right up for me. I'm always logged in, though. When I tried a different browser, where I'm not logged in automatically, I got the "This page isn't available" message.

    Hope that info helps.

    I had a Cinnamon Cockatiel that hated my ex it would unlock its cage to get out and attack her even when she was outside the room in the hallway

    It would also get out and chase the cat if the cat came into its room. It was really funny to see the cat tearing down the hall and the bird hissing and chasing him

    Annoyed also.  Dain had crazy follow up offers.  Bought Leroy on the first day and no offers followed.  His initial offer sticks around for two weeks and those who didn't buy him can clean house.

    I finally broke down and bought Leroy. The deal was ridiculous; A total of $1,233.75 at 97% off for $42.30. Install Manager won't show any of it, though, so although I guess I own it, I can't use any of it.

    If you have DIM. You can go to your account page and product library, download the manual downloads, place them in the download folder that DIM uses, fire up DIM (you don't have to be online) and DIM will install like usual...

    Am I the only one wondering and more than slightly worried about why DAZ is doing this crazy pricing?  Even if Genesis 9 is on the really-quick-horizon (and who knows?)  I don't remember DAZ doing pricing like this right before Genesis 8. Did they? When was it released, I'll go check my orders.

    Yah, I know, but it is a pain to download each one manually individually. I did a few, though. I'll wait longer to see if DIM gets fixed quickly.

    I am suprised you just can't click each button succesively, let it do its download magic than bulk move the files!

    I also noticed a FaceBook coupon too!  I should see if it stacks!

    You click the product name in the list. Then scroll to the Download button and click it. Select the DIM downloads folder as the destination (it will be remembered for next time). Then repeat for every newly purchased product. Finally go to DIM and open the Ready to Install tab. Select each product to be installed by putting a checkmark on it. Then start the queue and install them all.

    I would watch where you shout that name out when calling him in public wink

    Ah, I just down load them to my standard download folder and drag them in bulk to DIM's folder, work offline so i can just click all for install....

    I' already purchased the Leroy bundle and am thinking of re-purchasing it for the freebies. The problem is, if they do another pro bundle sale with the same choice options, I'll literally have nothing else to buy. I'm picking freebies I don't even need now. Deciding whether it's better to spend that money on things I need more but the whole Daz Original section is getting thin for me...
