The GLDG's 8th Birthday LIVE party!! 08

[PyroChixRock]

Welcome to the forum birthday party thread! I hope you've got yourself a drink and have time to play a few games with us tonight. So the question is...


Who here is ready to party?!!?

Before we get onto the celebrations, I want to thank you all once again for being such kick ass members, staff, and overall community. This place wouldn’t be what it is without each and every one of you. I know I say that every year, but guys, it's true! :blowkiss:

And a huge thank you again to the companies and artists who donated to the prizes for tonight. The raffle sales went well overall. We raised enough money to cover costs and hopefully get in a big project me and prima have really been wanting to do. We shall see where the year takes us. One thing for certain, it can only get better from here. ;)

So a very special thanks to the following:
Northstar, UST, ACME Glass, Trev's Glass, Blast Sheild, Generations Glass, Dichro Alchemy, Flow Magazine, Glass Alchemy, Tag Glass, Mike Glass, Gypsea, Squareonebeads,Joolz by Lisa, chase Designs, Lucid Designs, Steven Selchow, Ruskin Designs, Jankyglass, Brettodi, Susheki, Pacosaki, Tokinloki, and Mr. Wonka.

:fworks Onto the celebrations!! Happy 8th birthday, GLDG!! :fworks
