Re: [Tuxpaint-users] Hello from Tamarind Tree, India

[Antonio M. R. <ant...@gm...>]

Congratulations Michelle.

It would be nice if you could share some of the pictures in any online
website, maybe some comments could also be added about the use of TuxPaint
and the other open-source tools you are using. ¿Maybe a blog?
.
It woudl be the kind of links I would be happy to share in a tweet or in a
FB comment... :-)

Best regards,
