We are happy to be able to announce that the Picture of the Day has a new and final creator and corrector: Gintar!

Gintar has kindly agreed to create and correct, so we owe him doublewink

It is a hard job and we have had some difficulty in finding a suitable and above all, as you all noticed, a reliable person for this nice thread, invented by the never forgotten Isabella.

Gintar is a trusted user of this site and has proven to be extremely helpful, I hope you will all appreciate his and our effort to keep the thread alive which with such few natives on board is not an easy deal.

Let's all thank Marianne for her effort to keep the thread going while we were looking for a member to take over, this has not been easy for her as she is busy with her husband and trying to teach him some Spanish, not an easy issue, I guess, what can I say...M E N! LOL

Thank you Mariana!

Double thank you Gintar!!

You have already helped me so much with your corrections. I always try to do picture and word of the day. I'm not very good at just learning lists of vocabulary etc, but if give thought to how a word fits into a sentence, then obviously get the corrections, I find I learn much more.

So thanks again mate, you never know, one day I might be able to help people too grin

Thank you Gintar, I have already learned a lot from you, and hope to keep doing so. The amount of work and dedication it takes to correct everyone's efforts on these threads is incredible, and I think often underappreciated. Thank you Marianne for keeping the thread alive these past several weeks.

Thank you Mariane, for keeping the picture of the day going and for everything that you do.

Gintar, I've always appreciated your translations as I am sure I will appreciate your corrections.

I hope I get to participate. I am a day sleeper in California. Both word threads go out while I am asleep, I wake up and run to work and when I am done with work, those threads are "stale".

I am sure you will do a fantastic job. Welcome my friend and,
