Thanks Sarah, I'll keep an eye out.

I'm surprised nobody on here's designed any yet...

(sow the seeds....😉 )

We make our own new year cards every year, and about 3 years ago had
one featuring a snowman blending into a unicycle.

Do you have one to scan and post here? Sounds pretty cool.

I have tried to access the cafepress site several times. The different
pages start to load then I get a browser message that says *The page
cannot be displayed*. This makes it difficult to shop and does not give
me a warm and fuzzy feeling about typing in my credit card info.

I don't blame you, I'd be leery of a malfunctioning connection, too. I
don't get trouble out of it when I try, though. Don't know what to tell
you. I use Mac, and don't get some of the problems people on 'real' PCs
get. I get totally different problems.

Hope you can get it to work, though. I don't wanna be the only guy
sending out unicycle cards this season.

If you're talking to me: no, not handy (I think I have one somewhere).
But to give you an idea: it was a folded cardboard (thick paper) card.
The front displayed a drawing of a traditional snowman made out of
three (or two?) large snowballs. There was a circular cutout just
within the circumference of the lower ball, so you could see part of
the drawing on the inside (i.e. some lines radiating from the middle
and other junk that seemed just random) without being able to tell
what it was. Folding the card open, they were spokes in the wheel of a
unicycle, and cranks with pedals, and part of a fork. Thus the lower
snowball changed into a unicycle wheel. And the text (in Dutch) Here's
to a balanced 2002! The inside of the card is depicted at the top of
my page <http://www.xs4all.nl/~klaasbil/rsu2001.htm> which I made at
about the same time.

There's another one at
<http://www.unicycling.com/winteruni/96icetree.htm>. And John Foss
makes (or at least used to make) a unicycling Christmas card every
year.

This site set off my Firewall alert.

This site attempts to use 'server' rights on users computers.

I denied access rights, and the page didnt load properly for me
either.

This site has something they are 'hiding'.
There is no reason they need server rights.

I've sent off a complaint to cafepress and asked what they can do about
it. I won't pretend to be savvy enough to know what server rights
are, so I copied and pasted both messages in my email to them. Sorry
they're not playing nice, hope they can make it better.

On a lighter note, Klaas Bil's Christmas card sounds mighty slick with
the die-cut and all. Y'ourght to reprint 'em!

I did unicycle-related holiday cards from 1981-1998 or so. After that
it was "me & Jacquie" cards, usually without unicycles. See my old card
collection here:

They are great cards, John!

I can see I'm going to have to get busy...

So why no more unicycle cards?

Excellent cards! I'm kicking myself that I didn't use a wreath for a
wheel on Santa's sleigh in my card this year.

Just got this from CafePress. Help me out and let me know any problems
you have with their site and I'll pass the word back to 'em. I kinda
like being able to post my unicycle ideas for sale, but not if they
can't actually be sold. Gimme details and I'll fire 'em back to
CafePress. Y'all.

Glad to hear it. Don't hesitate to tell 'em that you had trouble if you
get the chance, though. Thanks very much.

Richard, your stuff was completed yesterday, according to the wildly
elaborate report system that Cafepress has. I don't know how fast they
ship once the things are made, but I'm guessing it'll all be there in
plenty of time for every holiday you'd like to celebrate: Christmas,
Hannukah, Kwanzaa, Eid, Agnostica, Winter Solstice...

Anybody got any others? I love wishing people a whole list of
possibilities. Do the Hindu celebrate anything this time of year?

I propose we celebrate Unimas. Any takers? It involves riding a 26"
wheel around a dirt trail until you fall off and thank the Earth just
for being there to break your fall, if not your Ulna.

What do you think?

Happy Unimas, anyway.

Greg

Thought I'd let everyone know that all the orders have been 'completed'
according to Cafepress- Victor in BC, your order ought to be shipping
shortly. Hope everyone enjoys their shirts and clocks and cards and
such. It was a hell of a lot of fun doing the designs.

If anyone doesn't already have your Christmas cards, get 'em while
they're hot! I'd still like to afford a new set of cranks, Thanks!
