  Oh I'm so sad you're leaving!, this community is amazing and I'm so happy that you decided to create it! I would not be the person I am today if it weren't for you and Craftster!

What Mun said is so true, the world would be a better place if it were more like Craftster!

Thank you so much, I know many people are goiong to be sad that you are leaving, but We all hope to see you're crafts and maybe in a swap!! Thank you thank you thank you!

[leah]

I sort of wish we could all be physically in the same place so we could give you a standing ovation, Leah. I hope you realize what this community you created means to so many of us. 

hehe. Racky, it's like you climbed right in my brain and figured out exactly what I needed to hear today!

[rackycoo]

I meant every word.

I love it up here in your head. It's so danged pretty.

Racky, can you make her stagger around saying "Malkovich"?

Wow, I must say I am sorry to see you go Leah, but fully appreciate your desire to move on.  You can rest assured that this place/thing you've created means a lot to a lot of people.  Make sure you pop in from time to time show us your awesome crafts and let us know how (and what) you are doing with yourself. 

I sort of wish we could all be physically in the same place so we could give you a standing ovation, Leah. I hope you realize what this community you created means to so many of us. 

While that is a great idea, there's only one problem, we'd probably all be crying those I'm- happy-and-sad-and-grateful-all-at-the-same-time tears and would probably flood whatever venue we were in.

Wow, I can't believe how long it's been since I joined this community... not long after it got its start!

I'm glad you'll still be around as a participant, Leah, but it's still a shock for me. Just makes me realize how much time has passed. Best of luck with your new ventures!

PS And of course I have to add how much of an inspiration Craftster has been to me. It's all thanks to you creating such a great virtual space for so many creative, generous people to come and share their ideas!

You rock, lady.

Racky, can you make her stagger around saying "Malkovich"?

  But I shouldn't laugh.  I'm really sad.

I've only been a member of Craftster for about 6 months but I gotta say, thank you Leah, for creating a community site where I finally feel comfortable and accepted by everyone. I've learnt *counts, loses track* loads of new skills since then!
 I wish you all the happiness and luck in the future and also, fair play for managing such an awesome site for 6 and half years!
 Looking forward to seeing your projects and maybe one day having you as a swap partner!

 Hello Wade, welcome to the wonder that is Craftster!

[KiwiDragons]

Good luck Leah!

Craftster has been an outlet for me to escape my mundane and sometimes horrible everyday life for the last 5 years. It's also been a place to go to share ideas, try new things, and to make friends, and I'm grateful for every moment of it. I'm sure there are a lot of other people out there that feel the same way. Thank you, Leah, for giving us craftster, and good luck!
