bonny, never Skyped, wish I could help.

Thanks Hon.

I'm just frustrated because it seemed like such an easy thing to use...and yet, fail.

dcp suggested google video chat. Which also looks easy, but may only work with gmail accounts. Ack.

Where is my flying car and the tech person to make it go?!

On topic, I believe my great grandparents came here from Ireland via England. While none of us have anything but California accents, I get a lot of comments about Anglo-isms in my vocabulary. I trace this back to my great aunt, who called me Pet, and spoke very proper English, with zero accent, despite spending most of her teens in Mississippi.

eta to add the salient point about accents.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

bonny, I have skype, so if you want to play around without, you know, a client, I'm more than happy to help.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You don't have to eat what comes out of your cootch.

Also, does your camera have a microphone?

Do you have a Mac?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I almost posted that earlier, ita. I kinda think the paintings are pretty.

Erin, I'd love the help, really!

I have a Mac, and a separate, really good microphone, thanks to NDs recommendation a long time ago. My camera is an iSight.

My skype name is bonnyk-t.

OMG SOMEONE STOP ME FROM SHOOTING MY BOSS AND ALL MY COLLEAGUES BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO DO ANY MORE FUCKING TRAVEL NEXT WEEK BECAUSE THEY SUCK AT THEIR JOBS AND HAVE PUSHED BACK OUR DEADLINE ANOTHER FUCKING WEEK OMG GODDAMNIT.

(please note, I cannot actually do any shooting because I (a) I do not own any firearms, and (b) I am not in the same state as any of my colleagues or bosses)

So you can see me but not hear, and can hear dcp but not see him.

That's a poser.

Dan is all "Huh. I don't know."

So I am lost as far as what is up, but I am more than happy to help you guinea pig!

They are, but not enough for me to hang. Call me delicate and prejudiced. It could look like the Mona Fucking Lisa (or a painting I actually liked) and I'm not going to do it, thanks.

Maybe a print.
