Yay! I see PURPLE!! http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/nano-rebels/threads/45739 ruwth Such a little thing but it has put a smile on my face this morning! Some of you know that I was disappointed when I validated my word count a few days ago . . . and nothing changed. Later I found out that there was a technical problem and my browser (IE) was not displaying the purple winner's bar. I sighed . . . I pouted . . . I felt disappointed . . . I whined . . . I thought about using someone else's computer to be able to see it for myself. I accidentally visited the 2007 pages and saw the purple bars from back then . . . kewl. THEN . . . this morning . . . I got notification of a new post somewhere . . . and, lo and behold, the person who had posted was displaying a PURPLE BAR with the word WINNER!! I stopped reading and clicked to see my own profile . . . and there it was: MY PURPLE BAR! and the word WINNER! A little thing . . . but this old lady is smiling this morning! :-) A good way for me to greet the last day of NaNowrimo 2011! Now I feel like a WINNER! :-) ~ ~ ~ ruwth ~ ~ ~ Wed, 30 Nov 2011 05:08:00 -0600 http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/nano-rebels/threads/45739?page=1#forum_thread_comment_898430 http://www.nanowrimo.org/en/forums/nano-rebels/threads/45739?page=1#forum_thread_comment_898430 wyrdbyrd Hooray for PURPLE!
