I HATE LONG REVEALS!!! Especially when they are in the middle of a reveal and then you see them in another thread.

Ok ladies, thanks for letting me vent. This is not directed to any specific person but the whole reveal thing in general.

Sorry about that and if I offended anyone please let me apologize in advance.

My first (and only so far) reveal was like that, and I thought that was just how they were supposed to be. I prefer the insta-reveals myself, and I realize that many others do as well. From now on, insta-reveal!

I used to start a reveal, totally forget about it, and then come back and finish :) I still have that problem sometimes!

So, my hubby just got Call of Duty 4 and playing it all day. I've been bored so I've been here all day... feel like I'm going crazy with all that gun shooting in the background! LOL

I second (or fifth... whatever # we are on) that long reveals suck. Some of them even die out (like no pics at all). So silly!

I started with long reveals since that was what I thought everyone did. I find it too time consuming to scroll through the posts so I wait and skip a couple of pages. Maybe there should be two stickies...one for long reveals and one for short ones? I think some people really enjoy the long ones while others would much rather just see the item right away.

sometimes when i had really long reveals...i would give the link to all my pictures on the first reveal post...people seemed to like that because they could just jump to all the pictures no problem

disney16 · Jul 20th, 2009, 12:24 AM

My favorite reveals are the ones that state there isn't a long reveal in the title. I know that it's probably fun to draw out the reveal, but I prefer to see them right away before I loose interest.

buttercup784eve · Jul 20th, 2009, 12:31 AM

I like long reveals when there's a bunch of stuff. I also like to catch a long one at the beginning when I first log onto TPF, so I can catch up and participate at the same time. Rarely happens though.

Hey, does anyone read the Sookie Stackhouse books?? I bought the box set yesterday and finished the first book at work last night. They're so good! It's like Twilight for oversexed grown ups.

i just wanted to share that i'm driving myself NUTS! i have gotten it into my head that I NEED the large orchid patent zoe. they had them at the outlet a week or so ago when i went...but i bought a bleecker flap something, lol, instead. now my bleecker is gorgeous! but for some reason i feel like i have to have that dang orchid bag. it's sooo pretty. my outlets are basically four hours away...so im not dropping everything to run over there. there's one on the bay for $260 something shipped...but I just don't want to pay that much. i know there's 20 percent off coupons...and i guess i'm just being weird. is this making any sense? my brain is filled with cupcake fobs and orchid zoes. lol.

You should have got the orchid.

I missed a good deal on a editoral zoe earlier today! Got busy and missed the end of the auction.

I get this idea now and then that I must have a certain bag...then after awhile...it changes.

me too. that's why im trying to ignore it. my brain is nuts, lol. two weeks ago it was the peyton. it's been the amethyst sabrina for a while....im just waiting on not paying retail, lol.

patchworkcat · Jul 20th, 2009, 01:56 AM

I was like that last week for the Peyton. I know it's too big for my taste...it's just that yummy Legacy lining that makes me want to buy it!

d&blover84 · Jul 20th, 2009, 01:59 AM

i know! that's the main reason i wanted it. also the main reason i wanted my haversack...now i don't care anything about it. the peyton is REALLY big. i don't see myself carrying it, kwim?

patchworkcat · Jul 20th, 2009, 02:07 AM

Haha I was like that for the Haversack too and I hate suede bags because they get dirty so easily! Now the ones I'm still bugged about not getting are the bottle green 08 Legacy satchel and the Bridgit in the amethyst.
The Peyton is like a suitcase. A pretty one, though.

d&blover84 · Jul 20th, 2009, 02:18 AM

i think the bottle green one is on bonanzle for a bad a$$ price. bridgits are everywhere! in platinum anyway, lol. i got into coach after all the legacy stuff...so now i have to try and play catch up for the stuff i really want
