Thanks dinasset and Pat625.

I know the video is pretty long,
but I had hundreds of O's images.
It was hard to chose which ones to omit from the video.
I wanted to put them all in.
Which would have made the video nearly double in length,
to more like a half hour or better.

Great job on the slideshow Wallace. I don't know who "O" is, but she sure had a lot of talent. Lots of beautiful creations.

Yes she had a lot's of talent.
She was also Gimp Chat's Administrator,
up until her passing.
As well as one of GC's Founders.

Wallace, what you have done is beautiful and it shows your enormous sensitiveness and love to our loved "O".
People, as she was, are who change the world to better.
Thanks Wallace, :)

Wallace, just amazing.
I guess O was from Oregon, what a beautiful part of the US.

Thank you Wallace. A lot of those images brought back some wonderful memories. "Tux is watching you" =)
You did a wonderful job showing O's personality as well as her talents.
I will miss her so much. I know we all will. =(

Very few people can say that just one letter says who they are.
Here on Gimp Chat the letter "O" will always stand for Oregonian.

Touching memorial, Wallace.

When I joined O was not as active a member as she obviously had been in the past, so I have been catching up with her work on the board in recent days. As well as being struck by her knowledge of Gimp and her obvious kind-heartedness, I am truly impressed by the clarity and the economy of the writing in her tutorials - a really good example of how to communicate ideas to others. She was a very talented lady and I am so glad that her work will be show-cased on Gimpchat for others to discover - hopefully for a very long time to come.

I've been away for quite some time so coming back to this news was not what I had in mind. O was the reason I joined this site. She was not only incredibly talented as a graphic artist but she was also amazing as a teacher. She was so full of life and energy no one would have known she was over 40. I'm not sure posting personal photographs is appropriate here so I'll leave it at she was beautiful inside and out. It won't be the same around GimpChat without her.

Thanks for the tribute, Wallace. I'd forgotten exactly how many works she'd published over the years.

Good to see your return Mike.
O is a great loss to the Gimp Chat community,
she will truly be missed.
