Some ADMIN notes about Deb:

Deb is the smilie goddess. If you enjoy the wide range of smilies and post icons, it's all Deb. She's done a fabulous job making us custom smilies like the Black Friday one. Speaking of Black Friday - Deb is also our BF guru - she manages the holiday forums and helps keep us all in great deals from October pre-holiday sales to the after-Christmas ones in January. The other great thing is her ability to welcome newbies. As a co-mod for the Welcome Wagon, Deb tries to greet all who post in that forum (unless nrpeace17 beats her to it). We've heard from many newbies just how welcome they feel by her. Thanks for all your hardwork!
