Admiral_Chicagoi think she mentioned non water soluable glue / paint06:53
Admiral_Chicago"Mod Podge is a non-water-soluble glue. It cannot be washed out once it has dried" so i'm assuming the paint is the same06:53
lotusleafAdmiral_Chicago: that rocks, now to do some cost comparisons06:54
Admiral_Chicagolotusleaf: it's acrylic paint, so that shouldn't wash out06:54

Burgundavia-find stories about Ubuntu and link them in the "in the press" section09:19
Burgundavia-pick an interesting spec or two and write about it, for a "spec of the week"09:20
Burgundaviathat spec should be one already approved for Feisty, not somethign random09:20
dotwaffleBurgundavia: Is Fridge a wiki then? I'm not an Editor - never needed to be ;)09:20
