Allpet Roaches Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 How long does it usually take? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Clausen Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 The honest answer to that question is way too long. I've used this company for calendars for a few years now. When I made the mantidforum calendar last week, the publishing process showed on-screen and took a few moments. I watched the nice little line grow across the screen and it finished up quickly. I'm currently trying to make this roachforum calendar for the 3rd time. I get this annoying little clock and this third time left the processing window open for over an hour and it has still not completed. This exact thing has happened in previous years too. Their software seems a little shoddy. So, while I'm typing this I opened the "revise" option in a second window and it appears to be publishing! I should have a link for you soon, I think!

Peter Clausen Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 Six copies, Nancy? What are you going to do with all of them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanchantress Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Six copies, Nancy? What are you going to do with all of them? Well, you know, I have to send copies to my mom and sister so they can have a good laugh at my expense... and one for my desk at work... and one for a friend who rolls her eyes at all my strange pets but might think it's cool... and... I'm sure I'll think of someone else. It's just too much fun and I'm glad you organized it - thanks, Peter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
