You're so right about the gas money...and the instant gratification, too! Still, it sounds like a great deal, and I'm kidding myself/doubt I'll make it to Dick Blick in LA anytime soon. So I guess I'll get that order crankin'! Thanks again for the tip, and for the nice things you said about my comments. Don't ever worry about being "behind"...it's nice when someone revisits a previous tutorial. It helps to remind members of tutes we loved but forgot about, or maybe didn't have time to try when it came out, or ___ (a zillion other reasons.) Your new comment can also act as a reminder to add new info...about supplies, new tips, better understanding, etc. This is helpful to everyone in different ways -- it's all good!

They now have the granite colors,more translucents in colors and the glitter colors as well. I did order some that I cannot find in the stores, they sent a email saying that orders have gone way up and they will ship by friday so I expect to see them next week. And the shipping is less than it would cost in gas for me to get to the store with gas prices the way they are,,, it's just the immediate gratification that is missing! BTW I am always glad to see your posts you have been very helpful in answering everyones questions. I have been reading alot on the blogs and enjoy your input. I am very behind on all of this... so thanks again. @Phaedrakat: If you go to their website and look in the new supplies section you will find 21 new colors that they have added to their site.

Calif, so I appreciate your post! I took a look at Shipwreck's website, though, and I didn't see the new Premo colors listed. Did you also see the new Premo Accents when you visited? I've been wanting to get my hands on the new colors for so long, hoping to find them "in person" at Michael's or JoAnn, but no luck. Polyform said "Spring" is when Michael's will re-do their Premo clay colors -- not an exact date. They also said Dick Blick stores carry all the new colors. I've never been...didn't even realize these shops were in my state. They're about 1 or 2 hrs away (LA & San Diego stores.) I hope I'm able to make a trip, even if only for a clay run...want those new Premo colors! I prefer to buy from local stores to save on shipping, use coupons, & take advantage of sales. But if I can't, I'll definitely look into the $5.00 shipping deal at Shipwreck! Thanks again for sharing that... :D @Karonkay: Hi Karon, I live in S. Calif, so I appreciate your post!

Great news- Shipwreck Beads has added Premo clay to their offerings. They are carrying all the colors and shipping is $5.00 no weight limit. ( U.S.) I cannot get all the colors at Michaels or Hobby Lobby so am very happy to get this news. They are Located in Lacey WA. So less shipping time for those of us on the west coast.

Maybe in a woolly state I have unknowingly already voted and it didn't register in my, er, brain. Funny about that. It's the only explanation that makes sense. Thank goodness you're at the helm and not me! Thanks very much, Cindy; sorry to be a pest. While you're here: just got <a href="http://www.beadvideos.com/back-issues-01/#vol-015">Vol-015</a> and found myself staring open-mouthed (such an attractive look!) at you making those <a href="http://www.beadsandbeading.com/blog/polymer-clay-tutorial-urban-style-graffiti-art-beads-video/4961/#video">graffiti beads</a>. Wow! The hands of a surgeon! All the best, Mary Hi Cindy, That’s probably it. Maybe in a woolly state I have unknowingly already voted and it didn’t register in my, er, brain. Funny about that.

That survey widget is set up to only allow people to respond once so that the results don't get skewed by someone clicking over and over again. Once you have voted, you won't see any voting options. All you see is the results data. Mary – are you sure you did not already vote?

Thanks Cindy and Phaedrakat. Must be my iMac. I've clicked all over the survey, again and again, but I don't see any "open dot" or "vote" spots to hit. Yet the rest of Cindy's pages work flawlessly for me. Just one of life's imponderables, I guess. Thanks for trying to help anyway. Mary re: Reader Survey. Thanks Cindy and Phaedrakat.

I was able to choose which of the three I thought applied to me, clicked on the open dot, then hit vote. I got the results, with the percentages of the three types of votes. It worked for me!

Is anyone else having a problem with that Reader Survey showing in the left side bar? I's appreciate hearing from a few others to see if this is an issue for more than just Mary. Thanks.
