I tried for 1 month also..and the ones I did find were too big for my hoop...I've NEVER tried again!!!I'd go crazy looking!

Its not hard, be methodical & go through each site in order, just remember that good hints are given after the 15th of the month. There are good sets of designs hidden this month. Grab a long coffee & try again. I found the first one I did last year daunting but now I just breeze through them.

You can thank me for loading some of those files for y'all to find. If you look in the groups for the person who uploaded all the files, you'll see griffincreations, well that's me. Did you think that Alpha-Man would not be involved in that hunt? But, I still have to hunt for them just like you all do. lol

The hunts can b addictive, I have neither the time or the patience to do much hunting. *4U

My Dearest GG--COLD TURKEY! Just say NO! Surely your time is worth something. Do you really want a Zebra Font for heavens sake? I started a hunt ONCE, (and I've only been doing this for 4 mos) If you see something you want, pay for it, and if you need to pick up cans to get it, think twice! Hope I don't sound snotty, but I spent about an hour today deleting crappy designs, which I downloaded because they were free.

I know what you mean...LOL. But I guarantee that you will still get bitten by the bug. We all do. Good Luck!!!!

ROFL ;D *2U

which alpha is it ??? *

I started doing the fest hunt as a way of relaxing and in the begining I didn't fully understand everything and missed several of the designs..but as time went on I got better at it. I get pleasure out of looking at the designs offered on each particapant's site and I do not try and get "all of the designs in a day..I usually wait a few days in case there are some "boo boo's"..You have to make sure you join each yahoo group as they put designs in their files as well. Take it slow and do one site at a time and don't dwell to long or you will go cross eyed..Some sites have very slow pages that load but I open several sections in new tabs that way they are loaded by the time I get to them..The purpose of the hunt is sometimes forgotten by one's greed...and we should pay respect to each person and look at their sites and see what they have to offer..I have made several purchases from some of them and have been very happy.. Remember not to try and consume the whole cake in one sitting...enjoy it over a period of time and you will get the hang of it..It really is alot of fun...flower for you!*

I looked last month and it drove me MAD.
NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!
TIME IS TOO PRECIOUS TO WASTE ON SUCH THINGS!!!!!!

I tried and gave up......I never found one to see what they looked like.*4u all
