Changing your user name on the Cricut messageboard

I've noticed since the latest messageboard update that new members names have a long series of numbers after them. If you'd like to change your username to something else it's very easy. Here's how you do it:

First, make sure you are logged into the messageboard.

At the top of the screen (it doesn't matter which forum you're viewing) click on My Profile


At the next screen (the Control Panel) click on Edit Profile


The first option on that page is your display name. Delete the current name and type in the name you want displayed on the messageboard, then click the Save button at the bottom of the screen.


You'll be taken back to the Control Panel screen. To return to the messageboard click on the Cricut Community banner at the top of the screen.

Missed a cart on the Font List!

Huge thanks to Dawn (dragonfly50) for letting me know I'd missed the font from Paper Lace 2!!!

I have added it to the list but it won't be uploaded until the next lot of carts that have fonts on them are released.

In the mean time I have created a separate PDF with just the font sample from Paper Lace 2.

Here's the link:

Hello Thursday - August 2011

Just the one cart for Hello Thursday this month. But if you like Teresa Collins and/or Halloween you'll probably love it!

Her new Seasonal cartridge is called Chic and Scary.

We don't really do Halloween in a big way in Australia yet so this one probably won't be high on my list. However, there are some days where this image would be quite appropriate in my house. :)







There are eight carts retiring this month. They are:

My World
Playtime
Sesame St Friends
Hannah Montana
Jolly Holidays
Disney Princesses Dreams Come True
Cupcake
Inspired Heart



See you next month!
