Well I an sorta of new to puppets. Not the usual type either. I am 45 divorced guy. I have 2 now from Silly Puppets. I like how you can clothes at the thrift stores real cheap for them. I turned the Maria puppet to a 16 year old stoner boy named Owen Money. Now I am going to try to start making some Fraggle style puppets. It's a great stress relief just to let them vent out my thoughts.

Welcome - "Owen Money", great pun

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to P&S! I'm not sure there is a "usual type" really. You'll find quite a wide range of folks in all manner of situations here. But we do all have something in common...we all have computers. NO! I mean we all love puppets! Yeah, that's what I was going for. Anyway welcome and I look forward to bumping into you out here on the interwebs.

Welcome to Puppets and Stuff!

I have one question... when you say "Fraggle style puppets" do you mean ones that look like those characters or that actual style of puppetry which is mouth or hand in mouth puppetry.  Just curious because I've seen this a couple other times also of recent and wonder if it is much like when folks say they want to make a Muppet.

The picture icon that you clicked is for inserting the URL to an image if it is on your own domain or on a service like Flicker or Drop Box. If you don't use those services then you need to upload images to your Gallery here first and then you can use the Gallery Image button that shows up below the post box to insert them.  When you use that it takes you to the Gallery and you can use the drop down list to navigate to your Album where you can find the image you want to insert.

Getting hooked on puppetsandstuff is a good thing! Welcome!
