I've announced the New Member of the month event suggested by Courtney, now that it's March: http://justbento.com/forum/new-member-month I am at a place with a terribly flaky wifi connection (it keeps quitting on me) but although I am homeless, I am around! :) Have to figure out how to make onigiri in a 5 ft. long kitchenette though...

Bronwyn and Courtney, First of all, I wanted to say, THANK YOU!! For being such great moderators! You've really kept the forum in great shape! I wasn't sure how the forum would do, but it's been quite successful I think, and I do plan to keep it open after the Bento Challenge is over. We may do simpler Challenges or sort of mini-workshops down the line (I was thinking of for instance something just for vegans, or a diet-bento-sprint before the summer season starts here in the northern hemisphere, etc.)

I just unpublished a comment from the week 4 wrap up thread. Although the poster is registered, her first post seems to be an advertisement for a weight loss product, and it does not *feel* right to me. I just wanted to make sure, however, of who I am sending this report to. Does it go to you Maki, or does it go to the poster?

Bento Equipment and Bento news, events, blogs. Not sure if that's too much...but well...there it is! I've moved around a few existing topics from General Bento to those new sections.

The emails I get telling me about forum updates are totally random. It's not an issue, I don't rely on it at all, but just thought you should know. I'll get one email every two or three days. No pattern as to whether it's a post I wrote or just something I commented on.

I just unpublished this post as it seems to be a copy of the original post from Hungry Tiger. Whilst I know Tofuwarrior is trying to be helpful, I'm not sure it's a good thing. Should we ask her to resubmit the post with the recipie in her own words?

Hi Maki, is it just me or has something happened to your "just bento" at the tops of the pages? It is OK on this page, but on most of them the right hand side of the "o" has been sliced off. I'm using Firefox on a Mac if that makes any difference.

Would you like me to start the "Week X Wrapup Report" posts Maki? I don't want to seem to be taking over your role as Forum Boss & Head Honcho, but likewise, don't want to shirk. Just thought it might be sensible, seeing as Friday is earlier here than it is there!
