The Winter Holiday Lovefest Post

It has been suggested in several quarters that the best way to handle the encroaching season of gift-giving and generalized avarice (since everybody seems to be broke this year) is to trade favors, services, and homemade stuff. ...

Here's how you can play:

If you want me to do something for you, post it in the comments here, email me, or communicate it to me in some other way. If you want to join the exchange, post this post, or something resembling it, in your little corner of the internet. I make no promises, but I will do my best to fulfill all reasonable requests.

[On a personal note to non-breeding clan folk: the kids are pretty well off in terms of gifts, thanks to indulgent grandparent-types. Princess Boredom is likely to exchange gifts of her own invention with her buddies, but nobody is expected to provide gifts for our offspring.]

We're so close to being done, but stuck on finalizing some techniques and such. Help with solidifying vision and actually getting the thing finished would be marvelous.
