Re: BCSS National Plant Fair - 10-11 August 2024

The main "announcement" thread is locked, so I'll let myself ask the question here. Hopefully the right people will see it. Would it be possible to add short "resumes" of the confirmed traders, what plants they specialise in etc.? I know some names, but others are new to me, and...

Re: Hello from Huntly NE Scotland

Hello all I have a growing interest in Lithops and have just started the process of researching for my first greenhouse. I’m looking forward to exploring the posts and learning more. 👍 Welcome David! You are a bit of a trek away from the Grampian branch meetings I'm afraid, which are in Bridge of D...

Re: Habitat plant?

Thanks Chris. That is a good tip about the different patterns and I will look out for that on future postings. It was a tip like that I was hoping for to help ensure I don't ever purchase collected plants. It might be good if we had a sticky on here and/or an article on the main website on what to ...

Re: latest con

Probably haven’t hacked his account, as it that case the email would be from his account. They tend to trawl through websites looking for email addresses, then look for associated ones on the same site. They then select what they consider the senior account, for example CEO or chairperson, then sen...

Re: BCSS AGM 2024 - Unappealing photo!

You criticised the whole events section for being unprofessional and visually unappealing. I'm simply inviting an alternative while trying to make clear the amount of work involved in producing what we currently have. I did not, but I see how the sentence below could be stretched that way: Could th...

Re: BCSS AGM 2024 - Unappealing photo!

I am quite amazed how much my, and potentially previous, comments were misinterpreted here. It all went from "this photo isn't nice" (and I added "so perhaps we could replace it with a flyer or nothing at all"), to rewriting the website code. This wasn't necessary. You criticise...

Re: BCSS AGM 2024 - Unappealing photo!

[...] I myself have made 4 or 5 posters (2x Manchester, 1x Fife and a couple that were used last year), but I can't spend time making posters for every event! Could there be a general "BCSS event" poster/flyer template that would be used instead for such events? I'd agree that a simple &q...
