    Share your Thanksgiving greetings with the world!

       Share your Thanksgiving greetings with the world!

       We are considering starting a new tradition at PetoftheDay.com. We would like to make a collective set of holiday greeting web pages. For every one person who comes into Pet Talk hundreds just look at the main pages of Dog, Cat, and Pet of the Day. We would like invite everyone in Pet Talk and everyone who just visits the home pages to participate in this idea.

       We know many people take holiday pictures of their pets (and/or homes and families) and some create unique artwork to make electronic greetings to send to people. Our idea is to collect your greetings into a series of web pages to share them with everyone who visits Pet of the Day.

       I know there are only a few days before Thanksgiving. However, even in times of uncertainty, Thanksgiving is a wonderful tradition. We will test this idea with Thanksgiving and Christmas.

           ********************************

       Send your Thanksgiving or Christmas greeting to [email protected].

       Your greeting may have one or two parts.

       1) A photo
          An photograph or your artwork. If you wish include a caption of who is in the photo. There will be one greeting per page with a maximum size of 450 pixels by 450 pixels. You may wish to include your real name or Pet Talk name or even omit both. You may wish to include a link to your website.

       2) A Greeting (text)

          For Thanksgiving, perhaps, why you are thankful.

       Seven years ago Karen and I created Pet of the Day. It seems like it was just a few months ago. We are very thankful for all the warmth and support we have received from people from all around the world.

       Thank you,

          Paul

    I think it is a fabulous idea!

    I have always maintained that if you were to sit down and have a conversation with someone from anywhere in the world, that soon you would realize their life's goals and cares would be similar to your own.

    This would give us the opportunity to reach out to the world and share what is important to us.

    Gini, nice point, I so agree.

    Now I just have to get a certain bunny to cooperate with a Thanksgiving-themed photoshoot!

    Sounds like a great idea, but forgive me if I'm a little slow on things. Would it be something like what we do with our sig's but include a greeting of some sort on a separate area or in the picture it's self?

    Yeah I know I'm slow to get things sometimes. I'll just use the blonde excuse today. lol

    Yes, you could just use your signature image - good example, and in the email you could then add text to put under if if you have more to say!

    Re-post and clarification:

    We'll try this first for Thanksgiving.

    If that goes well, we'll do it again at Christmastime.

    Anyone else have any questions or thoughts on the matter?

    Canadians, I know we "missed" your Thanksgiving with this, but the sentiment is still the same - atime of giving thanks - and you are invited to participate, as are people from around the world who have anything to be thankful for!

    We will even update it Thanksgiving day, but we'd like to have them in before that. By Wednesday night would be best!
