FIRST ENTRY!!!!!

Hope you guys like it. It's clean, simple, and pleasing to the eye. It pays homage to the good ol' days where we all shopped days before Black Friday and simply strolled into the stores Friday afternoon to pricematch and get correct receipt dates. It's meant to be humorous to the FW community.

Oh, and someone said to do something other than black....but it's BLACK Friday, so I went with black. Plus the black allows the FW logo color and my white to stand out cleanly.

For some reason I can't get the actual image to appear here...will try to fix it.

And now I'm late for work! Will try to make image appear while at work. I'm using Photobucket and the [img] link doesn't work, nor does using the actual HTML code for the image. Any ideas on how to make it appear on the post?

You can't embed an image on FW like you can on other sites. You have to link to it.

You guys should really make a decision on whether or not to sticky this thread.

This should be fun. I'll see if I have the time to join in.
