How to Catch a Lurker..
Lurkers by definition love to 'watch', so all you have to do to catch a Lurker is give them lots and lots of eye-candy. Dangle it in front of them and they won't be able to resist comming out of the woodwork!
That's the secret behind my "Have I got an Avatar for you?" thread. That, and a fast turn-around on special requests! 
What's that? you're still hiding? Don't be shy, drop by the 'Avatar' thread and join the fun!
..This advertizement has been brought to you by ME! Yup, I did it, I'm still doing it, but I won't be doing it forever! Are you going to miss the boat? I hope not! 
Cheers! |

Yeah, Baaaybe. But it's closer to "Austin Powers 4: The Avatar Made Me." |

Yes, Kudos.
ku·do ( P ) Pronunciation Key (kd, ky-)
n. pl. ku·dos (-dz)
Usage Problem. A praising remark; an accolade or compliment: “Children's book author Virginia Hamilton added another kudo to her prize-laden career” (Calvin Reid).
There you have it.
Hey David, wonder if captivating stories draws in Lurkers too? I guess I will find out with my next edition that will be out in a week or so.
