Issue 002 • January 2002
Welcome to the second edition of LimeLetter. Let me briefly explain
what you will be seeing on this and future editions of the newsletter.
First of all, this is an informal, wrap up, of changes and updates
to my web site projects. It is important to know that both Limegreen
Tangerine and Bea
Arthur in the Lime Light web sites are nothing more than a hobby
for me. As a career, web design has rules and laws, but as a hobby,
design on the web can be quite adventurous! Please take some time
and browse through my online adventures.

• A Christmas Present :: Niko and Lars
Check out the latest video posted HERE.
Matthew surprised me this year for Christmas with two bundles of
joy.
• Apple Quicktime and Macromedia Flash ::
Limegreen Tangerine is fully integrating Apple's Quicktime technology
and Macromedia's Flash and Shockwave as a norm into the design.
I have been replacing huge animated GIF files with smooth Flash
and Quicktime intros on various web projects. The features are just
too cool to pass up and they bring net usability to a new level.
Please upgrade your browsers to Quicktime
5.0 and Flash
5 today. It will be well worth your internet experience on this
and other web sites.
So many ideas and so little time. Thats right... the waiting game!
• More Quicktime videos :: including a preview of the latest
video project :: Intimate Portrait : Kathryn Rippy and our trip
to Hawaii last year!
• Secure login for personal and client related page views.
• Influence section :: Ab.Fab.Rehab :: Skyscrapers :: Apple.chunks
May I point out a few other web sites that make me happy?
• WangoMail
:: Great new service for sending out mass emails.The LimeLetter
now is served by WangoMail. Highly recommended!
• MSNBC
- Week In Pictures :: I visit this site every week religiously.
A super collection of the best pictures taken around the world,
every week. Must see.
• Bucktech
:: Looking for home network solutions beyond two computers and cable?
Check out my brother's new venture and get hooked up!
• Mac
Show Live :: This WAS, a good set up. A 2 hour, weekly, audio
show about the Apple
world. However, today, I noticed that they just changed everything
around, and now charging for certain parts of their content. Check
it out anyway!
| Left to my own devices :: |
 Apple
did it again. I would like to welcome the new iMac into the world.
Who wouldn't want one of these just sitting on their desk? I would
like one for every room in my house. Just for looks! I'm going to
be putting the high end model on my wish list. Just for burning
my DVD movies! Read more about this beautiful beast HERE.
| Limegreen Tangerine Designs :: |
 Did
you know that I never leave the house? That's because I don't have
to! Since August 2000, I've been working for myself as a freelance
designer. It's been a rough year, but well worth it. There is nothing
better then being your own boss and doing what I love... computers
and design.
If your interested in anything from a new web site to online video
conversion, contact me today! Please visit Limegreen
Tangerine Designs today for more information!
What the hell is LimeGreen
Tangerine?
a) an online portfolio
b) a personal web site made by an illiterate idiot
c) a virtual playground of nothingness
d) delusions of grandeur
Answer :: all of the above
I have the hardest time explaining to people what my web site is
about. Mainly, because I don't know myself. The wonderful part is
that it is okay that I don't know.

 We're
getting closer to the opening of Bea's newly, revamped for Broadway,
show on January 29th!
For updated information on this finale event, keep revisiting the
tour
information section on the web site.
Also, look forward to the upcoming articles and reviews that will
be popping up once her show starts!
If you are going to her NYC show, please email me with your experience.
If you get to meet Bea and have pictures to share, please send those
too! I am still posting people's experiences
on the web site to share with the world!
Jan. 11-13, 2002: Lynchburg, VA, Lynchburg Academy of Music (to
be staged at Smith Hall, Randolph-Macon Woman's College)
Bea Arthur on Broadway :: Just Between Friends
Jan. 29 - Mar. 10, 2002 :: New York City :: Booth Theatre :: 222
West 45th Street
• Updated dates and announcements on Bea's Broadway venture
HERE.
• Many more Quicktime videos have been converted and uploaded
to the site, in the collection section!
Here are a few things I have in the pipeline. Basically, I'll get
to them when I have the time.
• Bea's biography :: a collaborative effort written by myself
and good Bea friend, Jessica.
• More Quicktime videos of Bea in her glory!
• Major design update; adding many new sections!
• Golden
Girls UK :: simply the best, overall, web site dedicated to
the Golden Girls. The webmaster is very personable, which makes
any web site more enjoyable. (she's currently working on a SIM's
version of the Golden Girl house, how cool is that!)
• And
Then There's Bea Yahoo! Club :: for more updated news on Bea
Arthur and her tour, check out this Yahoo! Club that I created earlier
this year. It has been an extremely valuable resource of information.
• And
Then There's Bea :: this is the official web site to Bea's current
tour. Unfortunately, its pretty clunky and has only been updated
once.
• Bea
Arthur In The Lime Light :: well of course I have to mention
my own site... again! Be sure to visit often, I am always changing
and updating the site whenever I have the time!
Contacting me. I love hearing from (most of) you, so always feel
free to email or instant message me. I promise (almost) to return
your email, however, I do get backed up and it may be a week or
two until I can reply. Just a little warning for you in advanced!
Club Chat
The second club chat on And
Then There's Bea Yahoo! Club will be held on January 20th at
9pm (eastern). Please stop by and join the fun!
One last thing :: Be sure to listen to a song by Rufus Wainwright
titled California. There is a delightful mention of Bea Arthur in
mid song. |
