The freebie of the day is the one that gets the most votes the previous day. Not all designs are available to be free. "What's up with that?" is pretty much this is Veronika's occupation, how she makes her living, and if everything were free how could she do that? There are certain designs on the site that she's designated only for paid members, which we can download any time we want. The membership here is a real value, because you get everything in all 6 categories that's there now, plus all the new stuff for the next 6 months, for about $5.50 a month. It's quite a bargain, I think, more than worth it for what you get, you'd pay more than that for one design, most of the time. Why don't you join and try it out, then you'll never have to worry about missing a free design or alphabet letter. Hugs, Marji
